SNOWFALL

The snow is finally here!! For the first time this season it is snowing in Salt Lake. I love sitting on the couch starring out the window into the city watching the snowflake twirl around. The view is amazing today with snow covering rooftops, signs, cars, tree branches and the street below. Thankfully I am in for the day packing up the house.

Country Living... Idaho

Jo was kind enough to invite us to Preston for Thanksgiving with her family. The fun was endless! We toured Preston and the small country towns nearby checking out the acres of land with cows, horses, sheep, lamas and lots of dry grass and weeds. Went to Kings, the DI, Pop n Pins, stayed in the house where Napolean Dynamite was filmed, got spooked out in a ghost town, saw a real live reindeer, toured the Thomas mansion and relaxed. The Thomas and Smith families were so generous and kind, we enjoyed the yummy turkey dinner and the delicious pies. THANK YOU for having us and making our trip to Preston a memorable one! We loved every day of our getaway. I hope someday we can have a home away from home to go for fun relaxing vacations.

It's official I'm unemployed...

and it sure does feel great! Wednesday was my last day working with bridal gowns and I could not be a happier person. Although the position was filled with much learning and it would look fabulous on my resume I supper dupper excited to be moving. I will miss a handful of girls I worked with and hope they come visit soon! Now its time to pack up this house and get on the road to our home sweet home...

FUN FILLED WEEKEND!

The fun was never ending this weekend... Friday evening started with Amber, Kent and our favorite toddler Andy, we all headed down stairs to the new Urban Outfitters to check it out and to meet up with Jo for a few. The people watching was great, I enjoying seeing the different fashions of those in Utah. We then headed over to the Hilton to pick Kirk and Chelsea up!! We were super excited to have them in town for the weekend. A delicious meal of lots and lots and lots of meat was had at our favorite Brazilian Eatery up here. The boys(brando, spence, and scott) joined us too, it was a little reunion.
Saturday was jam packed busy - breakfast with kirk and chels at a ghetto place, the airport to get Jo and Britt!, the temple, dinner at CPK, and gaming, laughing, talking, blogging all night at our place! We enjoyed all the time we had to spend with all our many friends through out the weekend.
Sunday we got a special treat when Jo and Brit missed their flight and stayed for the day! We did a little sight seeing around town. As soon as they headed off we went down to P-town to spend the evening with Jules, Russ, Baby S and Margie. Jules made the most delicious meal we ate till I was ready to pass out! Jules thanks for having us over we are already counting down to April when we can all be together for a short while till you three head off on your adventure. We are really going to miss you all, I just love how much we have together and how well our hubbies get along, I feel like Russ has been a part of the gang forever. It is funny how meet people at certain points in your life and dont realize how things might turn out. Thank goodness for the boys of the past... I sure am grateful we are friends for life.
The weekend was a memorable one! I wish we could see all of our friends all together more often. I love to see how happy each of you are and how much you have changed since our single days. We love you all and thank you for making our weekend special.

OUR SPECIAL DAY...

Today was the best day we have had in Utah since living here. We want to thank all our wonderful friends for taking time to spend the entire day and night with us. It has been years since we have spent time with Kirk, Clay and Joe all at the same time. It reminded us of our single life long before we were ever in love. It truly was amazing to been in such a special place with so many of you today. We love each of you and often do not get spend much time with you. A special thank you go's out to Jo and Britt who made a very quick trip (less than 24 hrs) to Utah to show love and support of us. We are beyond excited to live in the same city as you and enjoy the future babe! Kirk and Chelsea for making the 7 hour drive just to see us and support us. Tim considers you his brother and really misses you. Wether its Shell beach or SC we can hardly wait to raise our little ones with you. Mason and Melissa we know how busy Mas's schedule is in Idaho we appreciate you making the trip down. Tim has admired since the day you came knocking on the door to skate his ramp. THANK YOU for tricking him into institute! We would not have been here today if it were not for Mas, Jeff, Ben, and Dan the man. Tim loves you and thinks so highly of you. We wish we could have seen the babe today too but thankfully we will be in the bay together soon. To all of our other friends we can not express how much your friendship, love, support, and examples have influenced us and helped us. Love you all!

NOW SPOONING...

Yummy frozen yogurt has found its way to Utah. Spoon me offers two flavors of fresh yogurt frozen adorned with any three toppings you want. We have enjoyed this cool fresh yummy treat a few times over the past couple weeks. Tim is a big fan! I on the other hand prefer a sweet treat over this tart treat. But it's worth a try.

It has arrived...

We were so stoked when we heard the Cheesecake Factory was really coming to Utah. We of course had to go opening weekend we could not resist! The wait was only two hours - not too bad. Jules, Russel and baby S joined us for a very scrumptious meal and delicious desert. We celebrated my birthday (a little late) since I had been gone for the whole month. Jules I am loving the butterfly, it is so me! Thanks for the fun day guys. We will miss you!
