Season of Giving and Thankgiving

I was trying to make this video show up at the bottom, but blogs are annoying sometimes and don't do what I want it to do, so here it is at the top! This funny video is from when we went to CO for Thanksgiving and we are playing a really fun "game" with my little brother. :) 



I love this time of year! I love being around friends and family and laughing our heads off! Two weekends ago we headed up to Rexburg, Idaho for my cousins wedding. While there we are able to visit not only my family, but Colby's as well! We had a blast! We went sledding, and watched Studio C and Jon Schmidt videos!
Katie loves Colby. she wouldn't let me give her hug! Only Colby could hold her. 





It snowed in Rexburg! I love the snow! It looked like Dippin' Dots ice cream. 


Xi dropped his gum in the snow. He was not to happy about it lol 
For Thanksgiving we drove to Colorado! We had perfect driving weather, but would not have minded if it snowed over the break, but it didn't. But that did not stop us from having a fire going in the wood burning stove every night! We played in our annual Turkey Bowl from the ward and I scored a touchdown! Oh yeah!
My dad bought a new smoker and our Turkey for Thanksgiving was the first to try it out! It was absolutely delicious and very moist! yyyyyuuummm! 


The best two people in the world

Our Thanksgiving feast! 
 The next few days we went shopping, and then we helped my dad put up the Christmas lights! We also had a fun time playing games (scroll to the top for the youtube video and find out)!


My little siblings were afraid for my dad and Spence being on the roof. 

Yeah for Christmas!! 

Even though we won't be in CO for Christmas at least we made it on the Christmas card (that is if they get them out in time...)!!

I am so thankful for my family and all the blessings that the Lord gives me everyday! I am so thankful for my wonderful husband and everything he does for me. Most of all, I am thankful and grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ and his atoning sacrifice for all the world! He is my friend, teacher, and exemplar in so many ways. I am grateful for the knowledge of the gospel that helps me to be a better person everyday. 

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with love and happiness! I wish you all the best this Christmas season and hope we can all remember what it is all about!
