Wow we have a lot of updating to do! It's been pretty crazy lately with me working but thank goodness that I will be done here at the end of this week! I can't wait to just be a mommy instead of a working mommy.
So I guess I need to start at Thanksgiving! We got to go down to Thatcher for Thanksgiving and we had a blast! We hadn't been home in over 7 months so it felt good to finally be home. We drove through Eagar on the way down to catch Tanner's basketball game. We spent the night and then woke up to go visit Denver's grandparents. We hadn't seen them in a while and we miss visiting them at least once a week like when we use to live in Eagar. After we visited we headed down to Thatcher to surprise my family! They were thinking we weren't going to get there until late that night but we rolled into town about 3:00pm!
The rest of the weekend was spent reminiceing with the family! We enjoyed just talking and catching up with everybody. The only bad part was the flu went around while we were there and I was sick on the way home....it wasn't too bad.
We put up our Christmas....well we actually put it up Nov. 1st because we hadn't ever put a Christmas tree up since we've been married because we have moved every Christmas until now...My mom made me a new tree skirt for my birthday that looked just like Ballard Designs latest and greatest....I loved it!
Later we had a ward Christmas party that was really fun! Daley got to meet Santa....
Then before we knew it...Christmas came Whizzing by! We got to make a surprise appearance at the Platt Family Yearly Christmas Party that is usually held the weekend before Christmas. It was a quick trip but totally worth it! We miss our families so much!
Then it was time for Christmas which we spent in Eagar with the Finch's! We got to spend Christmas Eve sledding in freezing weather! Haha the weather looked nice but it sure had a bite to it. We went up toward Sunrise Ski Resort and pulled off to the side of the road by Greens Peak. Once we got a fire going it was a ton of fun! Blake has a snowmobile that we all got to ride around. After sledding we all went home and warmed up. We had a wonderful and relaxing Christmas! Denver and I had to come home and work our little tales off until New Years because we were so busy at the restaurant. But all is well! We are so glad it is finally 2012 and we are ready and excited for the year...whatever comes our way.
Here we come 2012!
Haha, I love that first picture of Daley. She is so cute!
