Happy Thanksgiving!!

We have had a great Thanksgiving weekend! We spent time at my parents where we got to visit and eat lots of yummy food! We have so much to be Thankful for!
To make things even better, BYU beat Utah in the football game!
We have been so busy, so I haven't really posted this week, and now it will be a while again. Matt's work is taking us on a trip. Should be fun. We will be sure to post lots of pictures when we get back, plus Savannah has some big news to post.
But for now...here are a few pictures of our Thanksgiving:





The boys frying a turkey!


It's getting cold!!!


Savannah made a new friend


Checking out the choo-choo. (if you look close enough you can see it) The kids love to watch the trains and run outside whenever they hear one.

Go Cougars!!!

Well, the big week of the BYU-Utah game has arrived! No one needs to question which team we are cheering for!!!! Here are some pictures of last years game to get everyone excited!!!!
ps..If you want to watch the youtube click, be sure to go to the bottom of the page to pause my music or you will hear both at the same time.

Tubby-tub time

Savannah's new elephant towel!

hey!

Thanks for your comments everyone! To answer your questions, We had our pictures taken from Mary Clark. She worked with us with APX our first summer in Indiana. She has a studio in Murray now. Anyway, she does a really good job. If you want to see her website, I think it is photographybydmc.com and a blog page that is the same only .blogspot.com
Also...Our house is in Mapleton. I guess I forgot to say that. We really like it because it is out of town a little bit, but still pretty close to Matt's work.
ps...our camera is broken! I am sad about it. The screen broke and it will cost so much to fix, I think we may as well buy a new camera. Hopefully we will figure it out soon. Until then, probally no pictures.

Our House!!

Here are some outside pictures of the house we bought. We are pretty excited!

Tagged!!

Okay Okay...I have been tagged by a bajillion people and have not ever done it because I can't ever think of anything to say. So, one tag is 6 funny things about me and one is a list of 5 things for different topics. I will do both but for now here are 6 quirky things that I don't really think seem all that quirky:
1. I can NOT stand it when someone pushes my eyebrows the wrong way, or their own for that matter. It makes me gag. Really. I am feeling a little sqeamish just thinking about it right now. I only discovered this was strange a few years ago. I thought that kind of stuff made everyone puke!!
2. I always hide from our mailman. We have a big window in the front of the house, and if I am in the living room when he is coming to put mail in our box, I hurry and duck. Im not sure why. I am not scared of him or anything, he seems pretty nice (he even wore a Tigger suit on Halloween with the tail and everything), it is just an impulse. Sometimes, if I am sitting on the couch by the window, I hurry and lay down against the back, so he cant see me in here. Im sure if he ever does see me hiding from him, he would think I was a wacko!
3. I make up little songs all the time. I am always singing to Savannah about everything. Matt does it too. We will sing about changing a diaper, getting in the tubby-tub...you name it, we can make up a song about it.
4. Im pretty sure I was on the Frienship Patrol in 3rd grade. I'm not sure what the Friendship Patrol does. I think we were supposed to make sure everyone had a friend and no one fought. I could be making this all up, but if so, then I made up a little theme song too. I remember singing it: "We're the Friendship Patrol, Ya! the Friendship Patrol, Ya!"
5. I am afraid of big blow-up figures people always put in their yard. They are kind of creepy to me. Just driving past them only scares me little, but there is no way you are getting me to walk past them alone in the dark.
6. I have finger toes. I can pick most things up off the ground with my toes. Sometimes I pinch my husband with them, and once just to see if I could, I tied a shoe lace with my toes. They aren't very cute toes, but awfully useful.

Well there you have it. I think everyone I know has been tagged in one way or another, so if you read this and you havent been tagged...now you have. Sorry it was so long!

Big News

Well, we bought a house! I guess it is not completley official, but we made and offer and it was accepted. We are pretty excited about it. It is such a big decision. Anyway... We will move in the first week of December. Pictures will come soon.
Oh! and other news.... I got bucked off a horse yesterday and it hurt!

Montana!!

I know this will surprise everyone, but we took another road trip this week. We headed up to Montana for the deer hunt. We have gone every year since we were dating. But this will probally be the last year Matt can hunt in Montana since we are trying to buy a house and he will lose residency there. I will have to post pics of his deer later. I don't have any on my camera. Anyway, we had a good time even though it was a short trip. We love Montana!


Her cousin, Maddie, recieved a sweet new ride for her birthday. It was pretty cute because they crammed in there and went crusin. Savannah was a little more excited about the ponies in her hand (the girl is obsessed with horses) but she had a good time.





Savannah with her Great Grandparents (Grandpa and Grandma Grapes) She is so squirmey and will never sit with anyone for a picture, so we had to put her on the floor with toys.


Savannah had a good time playing with her cousins. They kept hiding from her and when she would come look for them, they would jump out and growl at her. She would then run for her life to me. It was pretty cute!

Halloween!!

Here are pictures of Savannah in her Halloween costume. She was soooo cute!!!
