Thanksgiving Weekend

Thanksgiving was so beautiful! My in-laws put on a beautiful spread and it was great to visit with everyone and see how great they all looked, dressed up and so smiley.

I tried to blog yesterday and I kind of stopped to get Peyton in the bath, then started doing a little house work and by the time I had a minute to get back to it, it was late and I figured I had just better move on. It was going to be about Black Friday, which I didn't participate in, but thought it would be fun to chat about! My friend Carol found the best deal of the day at Danskin Outlet in Draper, they are going out of business and the one day everything in the store was $.99. VF Factory is like a ghost town now- sad.

My parents also hosted Thanksgiving dinner and it's always so nice to be "home". My brother Michael was in town with his family and we had a really nice, mellow visit. I was able to visit my Aunt and Uncle who also live in Sandy and get a big hug from my cousin Steve and little Sammie!

So if you want to see some really cute kids, link to my brother and sister-in-law's blog, which can be found on the side there under Josh and Lori. Lori is a great photographer and was so sweet to take some shots on Thanksgiving. Thanks Lori!

That's all for now, I'm on my way to watch the BYU/Utah game at Kathy and Kirk's in Cedar Hills.

For Kirk and Steve, RISE AND SHOUT!

Welcome and Thank You

I just want to take a quick minute to welcome those who actually know and care that I have a blog now! I've told several people, but only a few actually have cared and asked for the site. Thank you for being my friend, I mean my TRUE friend! I don't have many, nor do I really have time to have many friends I'm a mom first, but for those who are there for me through thick and thin, THANK YOU!



I want to send a special shout out to my sis-in-law, Kristen, who helped me get this thing going in record time!!!! Also, to my other sister-in-law, Karyn, who thought up this darling name for the blog.





There are so many people who are dear to me and if you keep following you too will have the opportunity to get to know them.



Trish, Kristi and Jen... you ROCK and I'm so excited for what's to come and I THANK YOU for putting your faith in me that I can help build your dream..... our dream of helping GET AMERICA MOVING and LIVE the LIFE!



More to come.
