Thank Heaven for Kim Shirley

All I wanted to do was to add Christmas paper to my blog - how hard could that be? Well, it's not - if you know how to do it and apparently, I did not! I ruined my blog - at least the look and all my friends and family links magically vanished. So, ya, call me hard headed but I didn't think it would be so dang difficult. Thank Heaven for Kim! I called her up and she emailed me the directions and she saved my blog (not to mention my sanity!!) Thank you Kim for knowing how to do everything!!!

Like I said I lost all the links to my friends and family's blogs. So if you are reading this send me your link so I can out it back on the blog. I have been going through blog withdrawals, I miss all your pretty pictures and witty words!

Happy Thanksgiving!

WOW! This has been the longest blog dry spell I've had in awhile! I started working on Christmas presents and getting ready for Thanksgiving and the time has flown by...(as you can see it's 12:32am, Why am I still awake!?! oh yeah, my Thanksgiving pie is still in the oven!) I just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you all have a wonderful day with friends and family. We miss our family on opposite sides of the country, we are Thankful to you and for you!

Uncle Andrew came to visit!!

Jonathan's brother Andrew came to Utah for a week long visit! We had a great time with him! We went to Thanksgiving point Farm & Dinosaur museum. We saw the 3D movie Dinosaurs Alive and Andrew bought Marcus a swimming dinosaur (We can't remember the name and Marcus actually calls it a sea turtle...) Andrew and I made a pumpkin pie from scratch!! I mean from the bottom up! We bought a pumpkin, roasted it with some nutmeg (Andrew's idea) and added a little secret ingredient to the mix (My idea...) It was fabulous!! It really was, I'm not just saying that because I made it...Thanks for all the baking and cooking time Andrew, I don't get that much and it reminded me how much I love doing it!! We went up to Park City and did some shopping (everyone bought something except me:( well, I mean I didn't buy anything for me, but I bought clothes for Seth and shoes for Marcus) Andrew who said he didn't like shopping went on a spree! He says it was because the Canadian dollar is now worth more then the US dollar so he could spend more... I really think he was just rubbing that in my face! And of course we ate caramel covered apples from the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory (my new favorite place!) Jon, Marcus,Andrew & Tim went to the BYU game, Go Cougars! Jon even got Andrew a ticket to the Jazz-Rockets Basketball Game. Andrew bought the boys Jazz Jerseys (look for the picture). We even had the Miller family over for Sunday dinner to see Andrew, he hadn't seen some of his cousins in 10+ years!! We had a wonderful time with Uncle Andrew. Marcus still asks me when he is coming back. Thanks for a great visit Andrew. We love you!!

Seth Sits Up!

October 26 he finally sat up unassisted. He had been rolling over since 3 months, army crawling since 5 months but he just would not sit-up, not until 7 months. Good using those muscles Sethy-pooh!
