Thanksgiving

It's that time of year again.  I love the holiday season.  We are really excited for Thanksgiving this year, it's our first time cooking our feast for ourselves.  I think it will turn our great.

Our menu: Turkey
                 Mashed potatoes/gravy
                 Green beans
                 Sweet potatoes
                 Stuffing
                Fruit salad
                Jello salad
                Pumpkin pie

I just finished brining the turkey.  I think that it will turn out good.  We're going to try and get a jump start on the cooking so that tomorrow is not so rushed and stressful. 

I'll keep you posted on the out come... 









 

Babysitting

We're up in Holladay for the weekend watching the kids (nieces and nephew).  It has been a really fun weekend.  Friday night we took the kids to Cabela's to see the awesome trophy animals and fish.  The kids hadn't been to anything like that before, so it was fun to introduce them to a small piece of the world I love.  Saturday Jackson and I went and hooped with a really good friend of mine I hadn't seen in a while, it was a lot of fun.  We were supposed to go the the Utah/UCLA game, but we kinda wussed out because of the weather.  We ended up taking the kiddos to the discovery museum at the Gateway, they had a blast!  Today was church as usual.  Dinner was good (bbq chicken, salad, and pasta).  We played some backyard football, which brought back a lot of memories... Good times!  It's has been a really fun, tiring weekend.

Weekend

This has been one of the best football weekends I can remember. My horns beet the beat the pants off Tech in a convincing win. The LSU vs. Bama game was a defensive show down. There was a lot of doubt on LSU's side, but they pulled it off! It came down to a kicking game, a game Bama couldn't compete in.

The weather is changing. I can't say I'm too excited for the winter season to begin.
