Thanksgiving!
The week before Thanksgiving we went up to Salt Lake City, for my cousin Jared's wedding to Janaca and also to have a pre-thanksgiving feast with my family. All nine of the children were home with our spouses, that doesn't happen very often, so it was fun. The Wedding was beautiful, they make such a cute husband and wife. The Thanksgiving dinner with all the Family was great, delicous as always and a lot of fun!
For the actual Thanksgiving Holiday me and Paul went to Adam and Dominique's house (his brother and sister-in-law) for a feast with his family, I got the privilege of making Pies for the dinner. So I went all out and made everything, minus the cherry sauce from scratch, it was alot of work but fun. I got to make a chocolate moose cream pie, a banana cream pie, cherry, and Apple. Other then my pies, my bro-in-law brian made a delicous butternut squash and banana pie! All the food was delicious as always! We played Rock Band afterwards and had a really fun time!
Black Friday
So on the friday after Thanksgiving, my sister wanted to go to walmart for the sales, Me being the angel sister that I am, :) agreed to go with her. So, after going to bed at 2, I woke up at 4:30 to go fight through a mosh pit of tired and crazed shoppers! We were about 8 minutes late, and I'm glad for that! We missed the initial stampeed, but still got what we went there for. My sister go most of her Christmas shopping done all in one visit! I got a few things, mostly, to me from me gifts! Like a blender, food chopper, towels, food stroage containers, and sweatshirts for me and paul. The shopping trip was fun, and helped get me in the christmas spirit. After the trip to walmart, I went to sleep and didn't wake up until 2:30 in the afternoon, I don't think I've ever slept that late! We'll have to see if i'm up to black friday again next year!
Christmas Tree Hunting Fun!
The saturday after Thanksgiving I went with my sister Charity and her family to go get a christmas tree. We went on the very top of cedar mountain to find one. I found a beautiful tree fairly soon! That was awesome! This years experience was much easier then last year's.
Last year, me and paul went up to Cedar mountain the week before christmas and there was about four feet of snow to walk through! To make matters worse, it was getting dark when we got on the mountain to go look for a tree, and then we heard wolves howling! After all this, we didn't even get a tree! haha it was quite the experience! and we still joke about things that happened that day, on pretty much a daily basis! So, in a way this years trip wasn't quite as memorable, but definately easier and a lot of fun!

WalMart is quite a good store for online shopping.
Yum, those pies sound delicious! I can't believe that you went to Walmart on Black friday! You are crazy. Do you remember when we went to Meier and Frank and got the $15 gift cards? That was the best year!
