Happenings around the Home

So we've been busy as always, which means I haven't updated our blog! Here are some highlights of the past few weeks.

We went to Joseph's brother's home for Thanksgiving. I made a really cool cheese ball and veggie platter but I forgot my camera. So his mom took pictures but I don't have them yet.You'll have to wait... but just know it was really awesome! We had a good Thanksgiving and I got the day off! Hooray! We slept in and watched the Macy's Day Parade. It was a good Thanksgiving.

The weekend after Thanksgiving, we went to Joe's parents and replaced the brake pads on our car. They've been squealing for a little bit so I finally complained enough to have them changed. The best part: I got to help. I took off the tires all by myself. Here is the evidence of it. Also, I took a picture of their cat that I like. His name is Whitey.


We also went to a BYU basketball game right before Thanksgiving but again, I forgot my camera. I predicted the score and I was only three points off! It was a pretty empty game, as in there were not many people there, so we got to sit closer. We got tickets for the Utah vs. BYU game this week so we're excited!

I also decorated our home with Christmas! We love our little Christmas tree and our pretty ornaments! We put our wreath, nativity, and lights too! I love Christmas decorations!
Yesterday, we went up to Sandy for the Festival of Trees, which is a huge fundraiser for Primary Children's Medical Center. Here is the recap of the best trees we saw.
There were about 5 Utah Ute Trees but only one BYU!
This tree was called Chemis-Tree. It was pretty cool.
We were surprised to see a Packer tree there but were quite happy!
The top of the tree!
Just a few more weeks until Christmas! And we're so blessed to be able to go to Wisconsin again!
