Surprise Visitors!

We enjoyed a surprise visit from Aunt Tam(Paul's sister) and Uncle Jimmy(her husband and competitor for the favorite uncle contest) just before Thanksgiving. I checked the kids out of school and we headed for Chicago's O'hare Airport. The kids had no idea where we were going. There were a few tears thinking we were going to Utah and they were going to have to endure an endless car ride. Finally things clicked when the started to see signs for the airport and planes flying above. We had a great visit with them and a wonderful Thanksgiving with them and the Johnson crew!

A visit to Wisconsin's ocean, Lake Michigan. A few weeks before the ice bergs formed!


A stop at the Jelly Belly Factory on the way home from Chicago to get a little sugar high!



Our first stop was the Chicago Temple. This was the kids first trip to the temple since our move to Milwaukee.
