It's a family affair...

My husband and I celebrated our

SIX YEAR

Wedding Anniversary the other day...

We went to eat at Pagoda

(Our favorite!)

and of course Avery celebrated with us...and so did Troy's parents

oh and his brother Ty.

It was great!

Maybe one day, Troy and I will actually do something together

No kids...no parents...no siblings?

You never know?

A few nights later found us at

Disney on Ice...

It was long..........but the kids really loved it!

Nana always gets us the best tickets! We get to eat with Mickey and Minny...

and take pictures with them!

Thanks again Nana!

We also visited the Expo Center

'Christmas Show'

It was fun walking around looking at all the fun stuff.

Avery and Jett...

always happy to pose for a pic!


My Mother in Law...
aka Jo
aka Nana
Celebrated a birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JO~JO
We had a party for her at Kandace and Tyler's house.


We had dinner, cake and ice cream
and after we watched a movie....
it was a lot of fun....
we always have so much fun together!
Love you Jo, Nana, Mom...




My darling niece Trista had her absolutely GORGEOUS baby
~KENDALL~

(Avery, Kasey, baby Kendall)
She is the sweetest little baby I have ever seen!

I am already her favorite Aunt...

what can I say, I'm cool like that!

And lastly

THANKSGIVING!!!

This was the first Thanksgiving with our families in

FOUR VERY LONG YEARS!!!
It was so dang good to be home!

We had about 37 people eating at my Mom and Dad's this

year, so we had to split up and sit at four different tables...

so I only put my tables picture in this post...

Here are my darling parents...

Irma and Grant
Thank you both so much for all that you do for this family!

We love you sooooo much!

Here's the fam minus me...

Then we were off to the Doezie family Thanksgiving...

I don't have any pictures because Kandace was taking pics with her camera

and so that's why...

So we ate again and it was DELICIOUS! and then we all went to see a movie.

'Four Christmases'

It was pretty funny...

I am so thankful to be back in Utah! I am so thankful for

our wonderful families!

A very SCARY post!

Alrighty...

For those of you who don't know

but might care

I now have a facebook...

And quite honestly, I can't find time to do anything

else

such as BLOGGING!!!

So forgive me, my ten faithful readers

whomever you may be!

Ahhhh, HALLOWEEN!!!

My very favorite holiday!

I absolutely LOVE~LOVE this time of year

and

I love everything about HALLOWEEN!!!

The scary movies that play on every station...the candy ohhh

baby, the candy!!!

And most of all

THE COSTUMES!!!

Hallie wanted to be a Mime this year and I have to say

she was the cutest Mime I have ever seen!

Avery was The HULK...

and

Jett was Bumblebee~The Transformer...

How amazing is that costume!!!

My B.I.L. Tyler A.K.A. Jetts daddy

MADE that costume HIMSELF!!!

Even Avery was in awww of it...

When Jett walked in Avery was like

"Oh my gosh Mom, he is so cool!"

I really need to put more work into my kids costumes!!!

Kasey wanted to be a GANGSTA...

What more can I say???



I was a flapper...I love this costume!
I need to find a better wig
but other than that...

It was a great Halloween....





My darling niece Trista is pregnant
and having a girl!
We are so excited for her
arrival!
She will be the first baby girl born into our family
in about 8 years!
I CAN'T WAIT!!!


So we had a little baby shower for her
at my moms house.
This isn't her first babe
but because she's A GIRL
we thought she could use a few darling
little PINK things!

Love you Trista and baby Kendal...


And the last thing I'm going to talk about in
this post is
THRILLER!!!
For those of you unfamiliar with
Thriller...let me explain...
It's a play put on here in Utah
during October.
It features these little skits about scary stories.
The performers dance
and act out scenes to different music
such as Thriller by Micheal J. himself..etc
It really is wonderful and definitely worth seeing
if you DARE!!!



Thanks Nana for taking us!
