This is our last picture for 2010.We decided to take the fun bus and go to Wendover for new years. We paid 15 dollars a person got a ride their and back and a buffet ticket! The buffet is normally 25 dollars and is so so good!!! WE got a great deal and had a fun time. We mostly went to see what it was all about. We sat and watched Kassi Lose to much of her money. By the end of the night she was broke and needed a loan. Well Dan debated it but gave in she won every thing back and we were all very happy for her!!Glad we went with our best friends! P.S There are lots a creepy old men there!!

Dan really spoiled me this year! He knew I had been wanting a rocking chair for a long time so he found me one and fixed it up. He sewed the cushions for it too! He also bought me the prettiest ring with three Ruby's on it! I need to take a picture! We had such a wonderful Christmas this year! It was so fun to have family and friends around. We are truly blessed with so much love and family that is so extremely giving! I am deeply grateful that our savior was born and that amazing feeling The Christmas spirit brings to every one. We need to give and focus on the love and peace we feel during the holidays all year long! Dan and Caprilees presents! And her favorite present was her Big pink Car from her grandma and grandpa Amos! Thanks This is our entry way. I couldn't get a good picture of the whole thing so hope you can piece it together in your mind.

Our Christmas tree!! This one is borrowed from my sweet Granny because last year on Christmas eve Dan tossed a present at the tree and it snapped in half!! Talking allot of my ornaments down with it! Funny we just looked at each other in disbelief and started laughing.

This is my sweetest Sister!! I took a few pictures of here before she left to put up at her fair well. It was so cute and I wish i had taken pictures. I found an old suit case opened it and filled it with Little bags of mints with her address in them for people to take when they left. And inside the lid it said I hope they call me on a mission! I had pictures up of her and made tissue paper flowers. All different sizes hung them up and put smaller ones on candle stick holders. It all looked really cute. I'm so glad she chose to go on a mission. She is such a good example to me and I love and MISS her!! She has been gone for almost a month and is doing pretty good.

T this ones for you!

Well I'm going to have to half this post cents I am so behind. First I just want to say I'm so thankful for all my friends and family who have been helping me through this past month. I love you all And thank you!! The day after thanks giving shopping! Got some great stuff and ended up really sleepy. P.S Don't go to Denys at three in the morning!!

So here's a funny storey for ya! One night I'm laying in bed and its around eleven thirty. All of a sudden I hear this big scream and the big dumpster out side our home slam shut. About five min later Dan walks up stairs. I ask him did you fall in the trash can? He is completely out of breath and looks like he has just seen a ghost. Well he starts telling me this long story about how he was taking out the garbage and as he has his arms full he lifts up the lid and looks and there is this giant Rat with a foot long tail and it was him who screamed because he didn't know if it would jump on him... I had no idea rats jumped! So I tell him lets go look I get a flash light so I put my boots on and we head out side with Dan holding my hand and sweating with fear!. And this is what I found. A old sos pad and a tiny twig for a tale! I was laughing so hard I thought I would die!!!

Dan scored some sweet Jazz tickets from work. We were on row 22!

Halloween!! I was a lady bug Capri was a bee a Dan was a... Chick

Im a little worried!

One night we decided to hope into our hot tub. So fun! The next week it snowed and we had a big snow ball fight the tub ended up having pounds of dirt in it and took the boys a while to clean it out!

Good Bye

Well I don't even know where to start. I didn't think I would be posting till next week but here i am. On Monday I got one of the worst calls of my life. My cousin who I had looked up to grown up with and made many memories around had died. Our whole family is very close and all our cousins are like best friends. we all live within ten min of each other and see one another close to weekly. I remember when we were younger Miles, my other cousin Alex, and I were having a sleep over we hatched this plan up to have his mom (my Aunt Mel) Record us as we acted like we were on Maury It was hilarious!! I will miss his humor. He was so funny and deeply cared about every one. Miles was in the war a few years ago and served our country I respect him greatly for that but in the same feeling I am upset for this war for that is what Broke his heart and spirit. He could not live with him self for what he had to do there so he ended his life. I know he has stopped hurting now. And I cant wait to see him again one day! I am going to miss him so so much and wish this lump in my throat just would go away. Here He is with his sweet dad.

I know I have said this for about a month now. I have Halloween to post, hot tubing, trips, and more and yet I feel like things keep falling on top of me. Morgan leaves in a week and to make this much worse my life was brought to a complete stop on Monday. For a min my life was broken and I was a mess. For a week or so We will be with family but please don't give up on me I promise each day I think I need to be updating and soon I will Thank you for your understanding.
Hope you all have a Good weekend Filled with Love!

HoPe EVerY One HaS A GReAt HoIlDAy! Be SAfe!!
