Our first REAL tree!

It fits JUST right! (ha ha)....12 feet 6 inches tall!

We just got it last night & I think we'll decorate it for FHE tomorrow - I just wanted to share the 'before' picture. Andy thinks its oddly shaped, but I love it!

Thanksgiving Weekend!

I know, its been over a week since my last post - my computer & mouse won't cooperate with me (ha ha)......I'm hoping that Santa will help me out this year. :D HINT HINT ;) ;).

This year was the first time EVER that I made the whole meal - my sisters, Ake & Lesley; my brother, Muimui & their friend Matt came up from Arizona to spend the weekend with us......so you'd think I'd have helpers (ha ha), but no, they were so tired from the drive, so they slept.

The turkey turned out pretty good!

My handsome helper mixing gravy.

Andy, Les, Matt, Ake & Kolby enjoying the meal!

Lana was a little shy for a while.

We went bowling on Saturday at BYU - here's Andy watching Kaleb & Muimui playing Air Hockey.

I had some time to decorate for Christmas.

Ake & Lesley were able to make some Amish 'Friendship Bread'.

We enjoyed it while we played a 'Washeroo' tournament. We had my sister-in-law Debbie & Lesley's friends Matt & Scott come to play with us........Matt & Scott were the champs!

Thanks for a great weekend guys - it was an awesome Thanksgiving!!
