Thanksgiving weekend was a BLAST!! We went up to Brigham for the
Bawden family party. We left Wednesday night after we got off work, stopped in
Santaquin to drop something off to my sister, stopped in
Orem to drop off a wedding dress, 2 b-day presents and pick up 3 kids, and finally made it to my
mommys and
daddys house at about midnight. (long trip)
Thanksgiving day was a lot of fun, there were a lot of people and even more food! I miss my family and I don't get to see them that much because we live far away, so it was nice to spend time with them. Well It was such a crazy day that I only got 1 picture!!! I know I know only one picture does NOT sound like me but I was having so much fun I didn't even think to pick up the camera until I saw this........
The kids all love Uncle
Kolie sooo much (and so do I ) We sure are lucky to have him in our family:) And I'm lucky to have him as my husband!
Well, we played mommy and Daddy with 3 of my sister Julies kids all weekend because she had to work and get a school project finished. It was a lot of work to take care of 3 extra bodies but it was a lot of fun and I think we did a pretty good job. Well on Friday we hung out around the house, played card games with my mom and my dad took us on a tour of the Brigham City tabernacle. It was awesome because we got to go clear up to the
steeple and look out a little door over Brigham City:) (thanks dad)
Later
Kole and I drove up to Logan to meet up with his sister Shy and her family, who came down from Idaho. We went Ice skating and then to dinner. It was a lot of fun! And after 6 years of not ice skating I only fell down once. So i think I did pretty good, except now I have a chiropractor appointment on Friday.
lol i really am a k
luts sometimes!
My camera has been taking blurry pictures lately:(
Kole and Me!
BJ, Shiloh, Stetson and Judd.
Saturday we did a lot more hanging out and playing cards and just enjoying our time together. And GUESS WHO'S PREGNANT!!!!!! Yup Hannah! The cutie in the picture above is due in June! Congrats Bryce and Nani-
Loa! We are so happy for you!!
OH, and I didn't get a picture of them but my sister Lucy and her boyfriend Lee got engaged the day before thanksgiving! Congratulations! and you better get crackin cuz you only have till Jan 30th to plan!!!
I'm so happy for my growing family:)
Later Saturday night we got all of my parents Christmas Decorations out and put it all up:)
Trinity and Brittany
Bailey
This Has got to be the cutest thing EVER!
Kole is such a good uncle and is going to make a great daddy one day. He was so patient with all the little ones and would just play any game they wanted to. This picture is one
Kole and Brittany didn't know I was going to take but I love it because Brittany loves him so much she's called him her Daddy
Kole since she met him.
Bailey loves Tori and this is probably one of the many reasons why. I mean how many grown ups will actually give kids horsey rides as long as they want!?! :) SO sweet!
Decorating the Christmas tree!
Bailey would not let go of this singing Santa bear. She was just hugging it and dancing around:)
Cute kids, they were so funny when we were putting up the ornaments. they kept saying "oh, I remember this!" everytime they put up a new one. It's so funny because I remember doing and I still do the exact same thing:)
Kole and my mommy~
Me and my Mom
Santa Hats anyone!?! Brock, Trinity and Brittany:)
Kole and Bailey. All weekend Bailey was Attached to Kole, and when I say attached I mean ...if anyone else tried to hold her she would cry until he picked her up, when she was hungry only he could feed her, and when Brittany got a bloody nose on Thanksgiving while we were at the movie theater watching New moon and Kole took her out to get cleaned up bailey FREAKED out until he came back.
Sista's!! Me and Mary, my cute little wally world girl!
After church on
sunday:)
Kole, bailey, my dad (who is looking way skinny! Good job daddy!) and Brock.
We started our long journey home at about 11:30 am. we went back to Orem to drop off the kids and went to another sisters house to drop off some wedding decorations and pick up the wedding dress and some pictures that were ment for another sisters house. We also met up with Koles brother Kasey and his wife Megan to drop off a present and hung out for a little bit in Burger King. We got to Santaquin and Donna fed us some lunch, (thanks again sissy). We played slug toaster cars (its way better than slug bug) from Nephi to Beaver and got home about 8 hours after we stared! It was a long, fun, Happy weekend., Love you all and I am so grateful for such an amazing family!!
PART 2!~!
(you thought you were almost done didn't you? hahaha)
We put up our Christmas tree last night:) this is going to be our first Married Christmas together! It was so much fun decorating our tree in our house! I LOVE it:) And so far the cats haven't gotten into it yet which is way good cuz last year Emmy kept thinking that climbing the tree branches, stealing ornaments, and hiding them under my bed was fun. Hopefully she wont do that this year or teach Chuck how to, because they are Ginormous this year and would probably tip my tree over!
Cute Hubby!
Emmy Loves the fireplace!
Wrapping Presents! and don't hate me but I'm almost done getting everything! Yay. I can almost sit back and relax this year. Which is a First because I'm usually waiting till the last minute to get presents, but this year I followed in my sister Donna's and my mom's foot steps and started in September:)
Well I hope you enjoyed my Loooooooooooooooooooooong post.
XOXO Tabitha
