Thanksgiving and Christmas Tree Party

Thanksgiving was a great day, even though all of the family wasnt there it was still a good one! Even my grandpa Jerry came and I love seeing him anytime! And most of all my dad AND brother came which is a miracle. My dad makes everyone laugh and never stops teasing one of my cousin, Chet, which most of the time deserves it! Grandma Glenna and my Aunt Toni never stop in the kitchen, and they make the best Thanksgiving dinner. My mom had to work so she only get to be there for a couple of hours. I told her that when Jeff and I have kids she has to stop working on thanksgiving and christmas!


This is usually how is works, ladies in the kitchen....

Thanksgiving Dinner

So usually the weekend of Thanksgiving we have a family tradition, everyone comes up even all of my Grandmas sisters kids and there kids and so on and there is alot of people there, and we go up in the mountain to find everyone a christmas tree! It is so fun and everyone loves to do it. My uncle Kelly brings his big snow mobile trailer and we have heaters in it and cook chili and scones and hot chocolate. Even though most of us have fake trees there are the few that go and cut down there christmas tree. Jeff still hasnt gotten to go since he had to work! One year he wont be able to get out of it.

Everyone up getting trees and eating!

Happy Thanksgiving!

So tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I am so excited! I am so "thankful" that I dont have to cook dinner tomorrow all by myself like last year! I am just making two pies and that will be nice and easy! Jeff and I are going to my grandparents ranch in Lyman, WY! Since tomorrow is thanksgiving I though I would post the things that I am thankful for!
1. My brand new husband. He is my best friend and I am so glad that I get to spend this Thanksgiving and every other thanksgiving with him! I am so glad that Jeff came into my life just before thanksgiving 2 years ago!
2. My amazing family. It is so great to be close to them all! I love seeing all of my cousins especially the little ones!
3. My parents. Jeff and I could not do it without all of there help and love. I have the most incredible parents, that love me unconditonally. I love you mom and dad!
4. My new family. I am so luck to not only have a great family but I also got a great new family. Even though we dont get to see them that often we will be thinking of all of you tomorrow! Thank you for welcoming me.
5. My true friends. To those few of you out there I am thanksful that you stuck around for all this time, some of you have really had to stick it out! I love you all! And to the few new ones in AZ, I wish that we had more time to hangout!
So count your blessings tomorrow and have a great Thanksgiving!

We are finally in Utah

So after a long hard month of deciding to stay in Arizona or move to Utah, we decided to go to the cold mountains and move to Utah. We have been here for only a couple of days and I already miss the warm weather! But bring around my family has helped alot and I think that we made the right decision!

It was a long trip up to Utah but we made it on Sunday. We are just living at my Aunt Toni and Uncle Geralds right now and we are very thankful and lucky to have them let us stay with them! Yesterday we went apartment hunting (its not fun!) and found the cutest apartment! It is brand new and I love it! My dad hasnt seen it yet but he is already not a happy camper, its on the second floor, and for some reason Jeff and I have alot of stuff! So he is dreading the move, again! I told him that he only has to move us upstairs once and the next time it will all be down the stairs, he didnt think that I was very funny!

I cant wait to get all of our new wedding stuff and decorate our new home! Jeff got a transfer
with AT&T in downtown Salt Lake City and he starts on Monday, he is excited to be in a new store. I am still on the hunt for a job and hope that I find one very, very soon!
