updated

Well i should say the Background is at least updated to match the current holiday.

I guess i really don't feel like there is alot to talk about. And no pictures to post. It's getting really cold now. It's currently 28 degrees at 530pm. No snow tho. :( I wish we would get alot this winter. But i don't know, it's hard to say what it's going to be like. I just can't wait to try snow-shoeing and cross-country skiing...as well as tubing again.

No yard work to complain about. Just hope the bulbs we planted will sprout in the spring. We have just been working and keeping busy. We got the house all decorated for Christmas, but we still need to get a tree. Probably something we will do this weekend.

I've just been hitting the gym alot and hoping that it will all workout that i will loose weight this holiday season and not gain it from all the yummy treats.

We were able to head to SLC this Thanksgiving weekend. We spent the actual day of Thanksgiving at Kevin's parents house. Which was really low key and nice. Then Friday we headed for UT. We planned on hitting In-n-Out as our first stop in Draper...but the line was crazy and we were starving...so we passed it up for my second favorite...Panda Express. LOVE IT! We need one closer than Boise! We are so excited that In-n-out is now in "upper utah" not just in St George.

We then hung out with (and stayed with) our bestest friends from CA, Chris & Sarah. Their boys were waiting very impatiently for us to arrive...so they can play with Kevin's star wars legos that he was bring down. Max & Sam had to show us the Death Star lego set that they'd would LOVE to have on the internet. Kevin was drooling over it too!

Sarah and i hit the movies Friday night to see 'New Moon'. LOVED IT! Can't wait to go see it again. Any takers on going with me?

Saturday we chilled and ran errands with Chris & Sarah, then Kevin & I met up with his family to attend my sister-in-law's choir performance. Which was really good! They sang at the Tabernacle in SLC. Then we saw the lights at Temple Square. They always do such a great job. Then went to Applebees for dinner...DO NOT eat at the Applebees in Midvale UT. Horrible service, bad food (on Kevin's meal) and they have charged us MULTIPLE times for the same meal. We are not happy with them!

Sunday we then went to brunch with my old roommate Cat. It was SO good to see her. And the food was yummy. We then headed up to Syracuse to see my Ostler family up there. We walked around the Layton Mall for a little bit. We got our 2009 Christmas ornament. Then headed to my Aunt & Uncle's place. It was SO FUN to hang with them. Of course we got totally spoiled there with yummy food, good company, and left with a few extra surprises. One i will hopefully post about on Saturday...so stay tuned!

Then it was back to reality of work, bills, laundry and setting up for Christmas. it's been a busy but fast week so far.

Looking forward to volleyball on Thursday & Friday as well as dinner with my Cousin Greg on Friday night. He is a cool guy!
