Gobble Gobble!




We had a great Thanksgivng in our new home. Shopping went perfectly! We got everything and more! Garrett and I enjoyed the time off together and Jacks did too..he loves it when G is home. we put up our Christmas tree and and some lights on our house, way to go babe!I have also been getting things together for Jackson's birthday is just two weeks! I went to a party store and found all this cute 1st birthday stuff..not cheesy lookin at all! Garrett was surprised by much I could spend at a party store for our soon to be one year old. I just reminded him that I was voted most talented, along with Kory Longenecker, in 7th grade and spending cash just happens to be my #1 talent.
I didnt take an offical Thanksgiving picture so I just posted a few from the week...

I LOVE the holidays!!!

This weekend I drug my mom to see Twilight with me..my hubby isn't the Twilight type! It was really good! I read all the books..the first books I have read in a long long time! We waited in line for an hour, but met an interesting lady while waiting. She teaches at PGH and is in recovery from breast cancer..times like this always make me grateful for the things I have and good health!

Now for the Holidays! I am so so so so excited for black Friday shopping!! I am going to Target this year..it opens at six so I will be there about 3. My mom and I are going to sleep in the back of the rover, yeah I'm totally into it! Last year I was so huge and preggers and I was running all around with my cart grabbing things like mad. I got this huge rocking chair but obviously couldn't lift it. there was a worker standing right by me and wouldn't even help. So I found this huge, I mean huge Samoan guy to help me. I told my sis about this and she called the store and flipped out on them! She told them that I was like about to pop and couldn't even get any help..I love my feisty sister! So to sum it all up..I just get so excited for the Holidays and all the madness! I love buying things for my two boys! And we have Jacks first birthday on the 15th and we are flying to San Diego the day after xmas to see Garrett's mom. Yep it's gonna be a busy one but I love every second of it!

Wii!!

So I have been looking everywhere for a Wii..well not really everywhere but I knew I wanted to buy one. Of course they are hard to come by, sold out everywhere! So I decided to call Walmart to see if they had any. The guy on the phone said they had 3..I rushed over there as fast as I could! I even woke Jacks up just to go get us a wii. We get there and I sat and waited 30 minutes when they told me they didn't have any. I considered my source and didn't even through a fit..I mean this is Walmart! So I cruised over to Target and there they were 2 Wiis just waiting for me! I picked one up and was as happy as ever. Merry Christmas to Garrett and I! Of course I just had to tell G..Im the worst at keeping secrets! So now we will see if I can leave it unopened until Christmas. I have never played one but I think they look like so much fun! So all you Wii players let me know what games I need to pick up..I'm so embarrassed of myself right now!

Hmmm...


Just a few things..first Obama has won the election and will be our new pres...so say goodbye to all your money folks cause its going to people who don't even pay taxes. Next, Garrett has started a new job down in Provo doing what else but Account Managing. It's a web site company so if you are looking to get one let G know and he will hook you up. We have had a busy week with our birthdays, just celebrating like nobodys business. Thanks to all the family and friends who sent gifts, cards and the calls. We love you all so much! My birthday was on Thursday and I celebrated with like my bff Brittany Thornton. We had such a great day! Started out with some lunch, followed with some shopping ans ended the day with turning me back into a blonde..because blondes have more fun. Thanks britt for EVERYTHING you totally rock! My loving husband forgot it was my birthday, which really is shocking! I almost cried and he felt bad so he came home with flowers and a Sierra West box in his hand. Thanks babe but you really didn't have to! Maybe he should forget special occasions more often because the payoff was well worth the pain! ;)

Happy Halloween!!




Like the last, we spent our evening at the Thornton Halloween bash and boy was it fun! We started the night off with a little limbo..I was much better this year! Then we did a bit of dancing to some old hits, had some food, played Bunco and had some more food! As you can see, G and I were Adam and Eve..now that's just funny! (Don't mind the Eve preggers belly!) Jacks was the cutest lion in the whole world..he even growls too! I just love Halloween!
