It was for the Peterson family. The ones I spent Thanksgiving with here in Chicago. They were visiting family in Orem. Then we went home and saw the kids. Cyd and Chan are getting so big. Cyd and I had a girls night. She spent the night in my room downstairs. Well the pictures that I took did not turn out at all so dad and I had to drive back to Orem to take them again.
