Thanksgiving Week Update--a little late!

It's been a crazy couple of weeks to say the least! It all started the Saturday before Thanksgiving when Jed's sister Karlee got married. Thank goodness Karlee is a no-nonsense kind of chick so this wedding was quick and easy. The temple and the luncheon and it was done! Doesn't she look so pretty! Of course I had to post a nice pregnancy shot of my ever increasing belly.

















Here's a couple shots of the moving crew---which happened Wednesday night before Thanksgiving. Shandy pretty much worked circles around the whole group of guys!! She's tough like that. This Thanksgiving I was especially grateful for my family----they will never know how much I appreciate all they did for me! A special thanks to my Uncle Carl for packing up all my "stuff" and I mean "stuff!" My mom has been here all week helping me unpack and I must say--I had no idea how much stuff Jed and I had until we had to move!
































Here's a nice shot of Jed and our friend Jason pumping the turkeys full of who knows what before the deep fry them. It was cracking me up how serious they were about this whole process! Below is my favorite picture of last week. Jed's brother Brett and his cute girlfriend Trish camped out at RC Willey to get tv's for them and for us. They got there at about 5pm on Thanksgiving Day and stayed all night in the freezing cold! I still can't believe they did it. It was quite dangerous too---they almost got beat up my 2 big poly girls that showed up in the middle of the night and stood by the door in front of them but all the other people in line formed an alliance against them and scared them off!

Funny Elfs!

Maybe I'm just really tired today or something but I seriously thought this was so funny and I laugh so hard every time I watch it!

Moving!

Yes, the rumors are true. We are moving! We are suppose to close on the house this week and will move over the next week. It's in Lindon just two miles away from our house now. I just barely convinced myself to start packing and I can honestly say I hate moving! Anyone who was around when Jed and I got married and moved into our current house with Jed will remember the many "discussions" we got into regarding my need to throw away everything and Jed's need to keep everything! Well, it started all over again the other night as I was packing up Jed's bathroom stuff and found bottles of shampoo, lotion and little soaps from hotels he has stayed at for the past couple of years!!! Oh and tylenol that expired in 1987!!! He told me he was going to get even by packing up my closet and cleaning it out---which lets be honest--has quite the range of sizes of clothes that I haven't been able to fit into "but if I just lose 15 pounds"! It's going to be an interesting week!

Halloween--- a little late

I know, I know, I'm a little late with this posting but better late than never right! One of my favorite things during the year is our ward's trunk or treat. I seriously love to sit on the back of our truck and have the little primary kids come around to get candy so I can see all of their cute outfits. Our ward totally gets into it and always has such a great turn out. This year I invited my nieces and nephew to come along and I was impressed when their mom and stepdad dressed up as well. The picture above is of my FAVORITE costume this year---any guess on who she is (and Lauren you can't guess seeing as you already know!) As soon as I asked if I could take her picture she started striking a pose. Lauren and I were laughing so hard I could hardly take her picture. Below is Josh as pooh bear, Nikki as a lunch lady, Hayli as Ugly Better, Chelsi as a dancer, Austin as a soccer player and Aaron as a pirate. They went home with quite the loot!


















Here's just a random picture of two cute things I made at our Fabulous Friday for Relief Society. So cute huh! I can't show the other things I made seeing as I'm giving them for Christmas gifts but I just had to show off the cute things our ward did. Seriously the cutest homemaking stuff ever!
