MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

This is my Christmas tree.

This is Bella on Christmas Eve morning waiting for Blake so we could go to my mom and dad's. We got up at 4:00 to leave.

Christmas morning We didn't get up until 7:30 it was kind of nice.
I gave Blake a new ipod, his old one bit the dust.

I got two pairs of Ariat boots brown and black from Blake. I am so excited.
We (me, blake and my sisters) went in and bought my dad a double skeet thrower from Cabela's. If you can't tell by his face he was super excited. We shot it later that day but I forgot my camera, so no pictures. It was snowing anyway so I am not sure how great they would have been
This is one of my sisters Morgan (17) In case you can't tell she is Florida Gator fan.
Whitney (16) is a Texas fan.
I think that maybe that causes some tension on game day but they get over it.
I have one more sister( I know my poor dad) Paige (21) who I somehow failed to get a picture of.
(Sorry Paige I really thougth there was one)

This is the magnet board I made my mom.
It says "Family those you live with laugh with love"

Grandma Kay (mom's mom) with a book about the Mountain Meadows Massacre.
You can see the side of Paige's face in this picture.
I don't know if you can see out the window or not but they had about 2 inches of snow when we got there and then is snowed all christmas. We still don't have any snow here just 3 feet of wind as dad would say.

TWO YEARS!!!

Yesterday was our Two year anniversary. We took the afternoon off and went to Denver to the temple. It is a little bit crazy to think that we have been married for two years already. Sometimes is seems like a lot longer ( in a good way).

Primary, Truck & Thanksgiving

For those of you who don't know we teach primary . We teach the sunbeams (most of them are 4). When they are all there we have 7 of them it is crazy but they are fun. Here are some pictures from an activity we had just before thanksgiving. Me and Adri Bassett, her dad is our home teacher too so we see lots of her.
Drew Green she is a handful sometimes.
KeKoa Ah Loy. He loves Blake obviously. If Blake is not at church he asks me where my dad is and one week he asked Blake where is your mom ( referring to me). His parents are from Hawaii so he sometimes uses Hawaiian words for things which makes life interesting sometimes.
We also have two of the members of our bishoprics kids in our class.



This is Blake's new baby. It is a 1972 Ford F250 Hi-Boy ( if you know what that means give yourself brownie points I had no idea) He bought it for $1400 it actually runs really well it just needs front turn signals to be totally street legal. I think it looks like a piece of crap but he likes it so as long as he is happy.


This year Thanksgiving was a little bit different. We stayed here because of work, so instead of cooking for just the two of us we went to dinner with Blake's boss and her family. We ate at this restaurant called Perkin's. I had an actual turkey dinner ( it in no way compared to one you would cook at home but such is life) Blake as you can see (hopefully) had......
CHICKEN FRIED STEAK!!!!! (YUCK)
Later that night we went down to the event center and played around with some of the staff and their families. This is Blake using the golf simulator. It was a very different holiday then I am used to but it will make a normal christmas just that much better I think.
