Giving Thanks…for at least 1 day of nice weather

For the Thanksgiving holiday, we went with the Collier Family to San Diego. It was gorgeous the first 2 days, but the weather went way downhill from there. Here are some of our adventures:

This is what we did on day 1&2

This Atlantis ride was SO fun, but I got S-O-A-K–E-D because Cam and I were the only ones that would sit in the front. Notice Heather and Ashley with their heads covered.

New Moon With Cristy

Cristy and I were going to go to a dance concert, but we had a slight change of plans when we both were dying to see New Moon. Just to let you know…it was worth it! p.s. I’m definitely team JACOB (even though I still love Edward). And I may have lost my breath when he took his shirt off…

This is Cristy and me waiting in line before the show.

*Jonny went to the movie with me the next week, and I’m not sure he liked it as much as I did…maybe because Bella didn’t take off her shirt in the movie. Haha!

I took the walk. Anaheim, CA

Huntington Beach, the girlies, Hanson, and Disneyland! We took a little weekend vacation and had way more fun than we should be allowed to have. The only thing missing was my favorite hubby.

YES! This is my favorite musician in the entire WORLD! I’ve been in love with Hanson since 4th grade, and on Wednesday I not only attended their concert, but I got to meet them.

Issac, Zac, and Taylor

Hanson loves helping the people without shoes in Africa, so they do this thing where a group of people walk a mile barefoot with no shoes on. This is Ash and I afterwards:)

Here’s a few pics of us having tons of fun in The Happiest Place On Earth! I love it there.

Erica’s 1st Baby Shower

My favorite cousin Erica is having a little baby boy so Heather and I decided to throw a family baby shower for her. Thanks to everyone who came…we had tons of fun!

The woman of the hour and the hostesses.

Cute book that Heather made for baby Sawyer. Everyone wrote a note to baby or mom and we put them in the book. (Heather is so creative!)

Soon-to-be new mommy and grandma!

All of the prettiest cousins:) (And baby Henry)

This is the cute diaper bag that Heather, Mindy and I gave to Cuzy.

Thanks Grandma for letting us invade your house for the shower! We love you!

Halloween and Black Out!!!

This year for Halloween, we didn’t go to a party or state home for the Trick-or-Treaters, but we did get to carve pumpkins and go the Ute’s game. Jonny spent a long time carving these amazing pumpkins! Jonny loves to carve pumpkins and they all look pretty good.

Jonny doesn’t really carve traditional pumpkins. He always carves some of his favorite things. Naturally, there are two batman pumpkins and a Red Sox pumpkin. I carved the skeleton because it was the easiest one. We’re glad that when we came home from the Ute’s game nobody smashed them.

This is Jonny and me at Rice-Eccles stadium for the Blackout game, Don’t worry, Jonny brought a black coat so he didn’t stick out. It was just too hot at the first of the game. We love the Utes and they beat Wyoming 22-10.

Yes, I just couldn’t get enough Ute football for the night, so after we got home from the game, I put on Jonny’s comfy Utes P.J.s and sweatshirt. (p.s. Jonny posted this picture much to my protesting!)

Pumpkin Patch!!!

Jonny and I went to the pumpkin patch with our nieces Aryanna and Kita today. They had so much fun going through the maze and riding in the cart. We really love spending time with them.

Jonny trying not to send the girls over the edge.

Kita thinks that witch is “really creepy”.

The two girls. They are supposed to be showing us their teeth, but Aryanna must be to big for that. She doesn’t think its cute anymore. Oh well, they still both look really cute.
