Happenings

Well since the last time I updated was in the beginning of November here is what we have been up to! My brother got married on November 19th to a cute girl named Kina, we love her! 

Since they got married the week before Thanksgiving Kevin just decided to take the next week off too and we stayed in Utah.  Kevin got to go hunting and I got to spend some time with old friends, and do a little shopping! Kevin and his dad had tons of success hunting which was so fun for him and he loved it!

{Sad, I know}

We had a fun Thanksgiving with Kevin's family and then came back to elko for a few more weeks before we left for almost half of December and through the new year.  We decided to have our own Thanksgiving dinner once we got back to enjoy the leftovers that come with the wonderful holiday.  I was super nervous about the turkey turning out since i had never done one but it turned out great and we had some friends over and ate some yummy food!

Before we left we decided we would do our own Christmas for each other so we wouldn't have to pack everything on our flight. I had no idea what Kevin was getting me even though i tried so hard to get him to give me some sort of hint but he's such a good liar! Anyway I was completely surprised when i opened one of my gifts to find a ticket to the show WICKED! Kevin has seen it before and has always said he wanted to take me but theyre coming to salt lake this summer and we're going! Im very excited! The other thing he got me was the diaper bag i wanted! He definitely spoiled me this year.  What did Kevin get? Tools and clothes from me.  Exciting for him!

 

The next morning we drove to Utah and stayed the night at Kevin's grandparents house so that we could be closer to the airport.  Our flight ended up being delayed but only for an hour so it wasn't too bad and we finally made it to snowy Colorado.  It was so much fun being with my family for Christmas. Kevin had the rest of the year off of work so after Denver we flew into Salt lake and stayed in Logan with Kevin's family through New years, It was fun to have everyone there together again!

We had tons of fun this Holiday season and feel so lucky and blessed to have the friends and family that we do. It is so nice that we live close enough to be able to come visit as often as we do.  After two weeks of being gone though it was nice to be back home and settle back into our quiet lives.  Only a few more months before there's another addition to our family and we couldn't be more excited!! {I'll update more on our little guy in another post}
