SLACKER

O.K. so I thought if I kindof started where I left off, that I could kindof get caught up. I can't believe that it was Halloween time since I updated this blog, but I have been sucked into the world of Facebook-(don't ask) and it has taken up quite a bit of time. Soooooo,
for Thanksgiving, we took a roadtrip to Arizona, we went to Pine to one of my sisters cabin. It was beautiful there. We were all there except one missionary and my brothers family. We missed them, but we sure had quite the crowd! The view was amazing! We had a little rain, but that didn't stop the activities. Some went rock climbing, Paul ran about 100 miles and we played a little volleyball too. Loved being with my family. Then we went to Prescott, where we went antique shopping and saw my two nieces who are rodeo queens in the light parade!!! Yee Haw!! they are dang cute.

So, now on to Christmas. The beginning of December Dan and I went to Colorado Springs to our annual conference-we had a great time. We stayed a night in the Broadmore Hotel- WOW is all that I have to say about that. Then when we got home, I had one mad little 4-year old who wanted to do Christmas decorations a LONG time ago. He would get mad when we would drive by the homes that already had its lights up. He kept begging me to get them up.


He was so excited when we finally got the lights up on the tree and he helped me with the decorations. The prodding didn't stop there. We HAD to get the lights up on the outside of the house, there had to be some presents wrapped under the tree and never were we to ride in the car without the Christmas music playing. He sure kept me on my toes this year. Now that everything is put away for next year, he is still giving me a hard time that we didn't get ALL of the lights on the outside put up- when it was nearing Christmas, it was so dang cold, I didn't do much of anything outside anyway. Next blog will be about Christmas day, the fun things we did during the break and New Years. What is in store for 2009?????
