Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Wow time sure flies!! I'm always so excited for this time of year, so Im not complaining...it just seemed to come super fast this year! We were going to go to a church for Thanksgiving this year, and let me tell ya....none of us were too thrilled about the idea! I think it is pretty neat that our family has grown so big that that is an option. But, with only 30 of us getting together when momma Sheri decided to offer our home for the gathering, we all got excited! A lot of work, but sooo worth it! Look at how beautiful everything turned out! Thanks to everyone who helped! Dad and Tay on the yard, Sue for bringing the table cloths and center pieces, and mom for her endless vaccuuming! OH and EVERYONE FOR ThE DELICIOUS FOOD! It turned out to be such a nice day!

This is my excited/hammered face and hair after everything was set up! And my happiness after we found my mommy's diamond that had come out of her ring!!! ( a whole other story!)

Okay so that is all the pictures that I took on Thanksgiving Day, but my goodness, the weekend had just started!! That evening I did gel/glitter toes on Heidi and Mom and Uncle Bob came over and we all hung out and watched a movie. Then the next day I spent with Steph and her kids....We played, did more manicures and pedicures and put some foils in Steph's hair. And that evening we went to Barrett and Jeanine's house to watch the Jazz play. It was a great game! We beat the Sacramento Kings and laughed really really hard at some awesome Boone commentary. :) We then headed over to Red Mango for a treat! I havent laughed so hard in long time! We were all on a sugar high or somethin....there was dancing, and weird talents revealed haha! Here are some pictures....I think the few people around must have thought we were nuts. We decided that we are going to have a family valentines dance this year..I cant wait!

Showing off our hand talents....

The gang! We missed Steph and Jake and the kids!

OHHHHHH....and I had a visit from one of my girlfriends from Rexburg! We got to spend some time together :) This is one of my besties ...Lindsay Borg!Hanging out in our sweats...catchin up and eating our double stuffed oreos...mmmm!
We ended up having a sleep-over party :) Then miss Lindsay had to leave me....I was so fun t spend some time with her. My year at BYU-IDAHO are some of my greatest memories!Then last night I had another great night! Jason and one of his mission buddies and I went to wingers and then met up with a bunch of friends and played around for a bit...then watched Vantage Point. I fell asleep after the third repeat...not a fan of that movie. haha!
OHHH....ANNDD I have done alot of this, this weekend. :) Just relaxing, chattin and lounging in whatever a darn well please :) It was a wonderful Thanksgiving 2008 :) I have enjoyed the nice fall weather...although...I am dreaming of a white Christmas...where is the snow???!!

SOOOO...we went to take a picture with the star of the show. He looked back at me and in a deep serious voice said..."Tag Me"...(he was refering to facebook, if anyone is familiar with it, you can tag (send) pictures to eachother)....and I started giggling...then ...to keep me laughing...he said. "Or Poke Me" (which is another facebook gesture)...and Heidi, being unfamiliar with the Facebook Language...took it literal and Poked him in the belly. (PICTURED BELOW) We all about died when she made the connection... She was on the ground laughing!!!!!! SoOOO FUN!

Another great night started out with a delicious dinner at the energy solutions arena where we would prepare (hehe) to watch the JAZZ GAME! The is Jon and I and his little brother and his girlfriend.

October thus far....

It started out with hearing from our prophet and apostles and other church leaders at General Conference, which was wonderfuL!...I loved each session! A couple of the talks that specifically touched me was Pres. Uchtforf's talk on Hope, Elder Worthlin's, and Elder Holland's talk about angels. It is such a blessing to have a living prophet on the earth today! And I look forward conference every six months!
This month we also got to celebrate my brother-in-law Jake's birthday! We all went out to Texas Roadhouse, it was crazy busy, and a fun and loud envoirnment! I love Jake! He is such a stud! He is such a good husband to Steph and dad to Hallie, Savvy and Christian! I love being around Jake, Im so glad he is in our family! Hope you had a great birthday!!

So being graduated has its pro's and con's! I love being in the salon! But it also means I don't get to see my favorite girlfriends from schooL! I Miss seeing them everyday. So after a week haha...I planned a dinner night! we went to the pizza factory! I was so glad that it worked out for most of us! Yay, i got to catch up with the ladies, such a great time!

A couple weeks ago, Me and my buddies Baden and Jason went on an intense scooter ride down by the lake. It was one of the first colder days this month...and it was seriously freezing! But awesome! I dont ride our little scooter that often, cause i get off and im all smelly. :) I need to go more!I got to have a fun night out with one of my besties Chelsea :) We got to chat and go out to comedy sportz one night this month. I love that place! It was so fun being with her. She is always so full of smiles and always makin me giggle. Im so grateful for her friendship! When she showed up to my house...we were wearing almost identicle outfits!!!! This is Me, Amanda, Melissa and Stacie getting all ready for the masquarade ball! When I heard about it I got so excited! Any excuse to put on a pretty dress and get all fancied up...I'll TAKE!! We went stag and met up with a huge group of friends most of them from our ward. We ate dinner in Tucci's....mmmmm, so yummy and then headed to the dance! I had such a great time!! I love to dance! My legs are still sore! I couldin't stop! :) The masks were a fun change too! Craig and I went with one of his mission buddies and a date up to the Moonlight Lift at Sundance! It was another cold night! But so gorgeous! I wish I would have done it a few times earlier in the season!
Hot Tubbin at Kev's house! This was the first year I have really ever appreciated hot tubbin, i was never a big fan....but I have done it alot this year!!! It is so relaxing, especially after being on your feet all day! I want to have one someday!

Last night .... last minute Abbey called me and we went to dinner! I hadn't seen her in months! We went out and ran into Brit and her roomates! So we stole her for a bit and chatted. Good food, good company....one of my favorite things to do!
