The Farewell
Curtis' Farewell was on Sunday. There were way too many people. It was insane! Over flow was full and people had to park down the street from the church, and our house was just way too crazy. It was a lot of fun and he did a great job on his talk! Shawn and I love him so much and we are so proud of him, but we are definitely sad to see him leave. Ive been okay so far, but its really starting to hit me. Tonight he will be set apart, and thats where I really lost it with Kev. . . so please bless I make it through the night ;) Curtis has a great group of friends and they have this tradition they do before one of them leaves on a mission. . . its their own version of "the gallon challenge" pretty much to me is they drink lots of water/juice whatever and puke the rest of the night!!! They are dumb. I love them all to death and I hope they still hang around when curtis is gone. Below i have a slide show of just some of the pics on sunday. Last weekend I also went skiing with Curtis, my mom, Spence and then my Aunt Beck and her boys. Curtis loves boarding and i'm pretty sure he is going to have some major withdrawls. It was so cold, but it turned out to be a great day of skiing. tons of powder!

Holidays!
Shawn and I had a great 1st Christmas/New Years as a married couple. We are lucky to live by my parents and Shawn's so we were able to do lots with each of them. Christmas Eve we had the traditional clam chowder and shrimp at the Blymillers and then went to my parents for some ice cream and the traditional story of Christ's birth, and Christmas carols. Christmas morning Shawn and I did our own thing. I tried to sleep in, but even though I knew every present I was getting I was still so excited to open them! After presents we made our trek out to the Schneiders. Wow, it was for sure a white Christmas, SO SCARY!!! We had a nice breakfast with them and then made our way out to Lehi. . . after getting stuck in Mick's driveway, and then several times in my parents neighborhood. yuck. Luckily we made it safe! We got to talk to Kevin who is in Chile. He has not changed at all. He is still the same sarcastic kid. . . Love it and am so proud of him!
This is our cute little tree with our presents!
This is Kevin, we were able to do the webcam (shhh)
All of us talking to Kevin!
Puzzle's are our addiction during the vacation!!!
.................................
We had a great New Years Eve! We had our friends Rey and Emily over for some guitar hero, wii games, and food! We also had dinner earlier that evening with Shawn's family and New Years day we saw my grandparents, hung out with my fam, and caught a movie! We caught a lot of movies over this break actually. "Ask me any movie. . . thats a GREAT movie". (line from the ringer)

South Korea?!?
My little brother opened his mission call on wednesday. It was crazy. No one guessed Korea. He was so cute and so excited the whole rest of the night. He leaves January 14, so crazy. It was weird not to have Kevin there, but we can't wait to talk to him in a couple of weeks for Christmas. Can you believe i'm going to have 2 out of 3 brother's on a mission!?!
Curtis opening his call!

Thanksgiving
So I know that I just barely posted, but my camera has been broken and we just got it back from repair. . .This Thanksgiving we decided to go with my family down to Arizona to visit my Dad's family. It has been a fun trip and okay weather . . . a lot better than home!!!
we loved it, you should all see it. We also saw Twilight this week,
that however, was a huge disappointment for all of us!
Stacey, no we do not want it for Christmas,
we won't ever leave the house!!!!!

We had a great trip, but we are excited to go home and get back to normal life. It was fun to visit all the fam in AZ! We love you all. please bless you guys will all come up skiing soon!
Shawn's Birthday!!!
Shawn has been having issues with his age. He is pretty much going through a mid 20's crisis. seriously. . . but I think he is starting to come to terms with it. . . maybe!?!


For his birthday he flew up to Seattle to tryout for a mls team. It has always been his dream, so he finally just decided to do it. He didn't make it, but he had a lot of fun and learned a lot. He shares his birthday with my mom, so we had 2 dinners. One at my grandma's and then one later that night at his parents! I hope he had a great birthday!

My Birthday!!!
So I just celebrated another birthday. . . i'm freaking old! 22. . . i'm going to hate my life for the next year. I hate even numbers! Sunday was my "sunday birthday" and we went over to my parents for birthday dinner, clam chowder in bread bowls, my mom is the best cook ever. Shawn's parents and brother came over and then we had my favorite ice cream cake and played games and had fun! For my real birthday I had to work, so my mom surprised me and brought me her famous chips'n'salsa and presents and took me out to lunch. The girls at work mad my day special too. they are so cute, i love them. Then that night we went out for sushi with like 18 friends. It was so much fun. thanks everyone for coming!!!
They made us take of our shoes and everything
is was like we were in japan. . .ha

week. but anyways

every day for the last couple of days!
His birthday is coming up soon

to do something
extra special!!!
