Thanksgiving Holiday Weekend

We had a great Thanksgiving here at our house! Doug's awesome family was able to come and spend the holiday with us. His brother got married the next day so it was a perfect chance for us to all get together, eat, visit and play games. It was a perfect day and our old friend Gizmo came for a visit. Olivia was in doggy heaven and we didn't see her all weekend because she was taking care of him:)


Buffet style for our group
 Look how classy I am? Last minute we decided to set the table up in the living room, but I didn't have tablecloths. Sheets it is!! So Martha Stewart don't you think?

The kids spent the much of their time outside. Notice the new swingset? Merry Early Christmas to our children...we wanted them to play on it all December while it was cool. They are only getting 2 gifts each from Santa.





Our favorite Nonnie-bonding with her Emmett

The next day was the sweet ceremony inside the temple. It was short and sweet! We were outside by 10:42 and the cermony started at 10:30! They are a great couple.

The next day we went to Tucson to her reception. It was a party! Our new sister Amy's dad is a DJ so we danced the night away!





 My awesome Mom sewed my shirt and the girls skirts and the boys bow ties. It was so fun to dress up!

The next weekend was a whirlwind trip! We went up to St. Johns and watched the Young Ambassadors perform! My awesome brother Chris is in the group and let me tell you it was amazing!! Gave me a whole new perspective on my little bro. He's a great dancer/singer/performer.
We stayed the night in a hotel and Emmett got his first little cold-and I had been eating horrible that day, so we were up most of the night. I was exhausted and wanted to go home to Gilbert. We decided to go to Thatcher down to the Open House for Kevin and Amy. We were glad we did. It was a great time, just lots of time in the car.


While we were there I got to go meet my new nephew Sterling Christopher-isn't he beautiful! He's a gorgeous baby...

And I can't do a post without my sweet buddy Mitters. Or Mr. Mitt as we like to call him...he's getting so round and smiley-
