Christmas with a Little drummer Boy!

Today after work we put up our Christmas tree and all the decorations. I love christmas time. Russell got his christmas present early again. He wanted Guitar Hero World tour, Friday when we were out shopping he was trying really hard to find the game. For the people who dont know what game it is, you play as a band so u have the drums, guitar and a singer. He found one friday night, and he played it most of the day saturday. So as we were setting up the tree tonight lando was playing the drums for us. He has been playing with the drums and the drum sticks all weekend. Russell video taped landen playing with the drum sticks. Know I know what to get landen for his christmas gift. I just love my little man lando!!

Thanksgiving!

This thanksgiving was nice, we went to russells parents. It was a nice little group. We took our wii over so micah, morgan and thaddeus could play. Russell and I played the wii with them also. The week was so busy. There was always something to do. Friday we did a little shopping and then had dinner over and my parents house. Sat was my fathers birthday so we went out to lunch for it. I was really grateful to be with my family this weekend. we spent alot of time with them. All and all we had a great time!!

Russells Surgery!

Russell had surgery today. He had surgery on his Right shoulder. he had a Rotater cuff tare( i hope i spelled that right,probably not) anyways. Everything went perfect the doctor said. Russell is doing great! He has not even been groggy! When i had my gallbladder out and i came out of surgery i was so groggy and tired, i could barely keep my eyes open. But russell takes it totally different he was up and talking and walking around by himself. I tried to keep him down but u know him Mr, Independent!!!! Well see about the next couple of day. The doctors say that the next couple of days will be worse. So well see! Also funny thing is the nurse asked before surgery which arm it was that they were doing the surgery, so he said is right. So the nurse got a marker and wrote on his right arm the word "YES", just to make sure the doctors do the correct arm. I thought that was funny that they would forget which arm is the right one!! Here is a picture of his sexy hospital gown!!

Girls Trip!!

My friends and I went up to park City just for the one night. My friend Melissa has a uncle that has a condo right by Jordanele resivor. So we went up sunday after noon and slept over just one night. It was so fun to have our girl time, which is talk, watch chic flicks and of course Shop!!! We all loved the shopping part. We ate at Red rock which was yummy!!! we were sad that a couple of our friends could not make it!! But we will do it again soon!!

Halloween!!

Halloween this year was fun! We went to mat and ruths house. We took ethe kids out trick or treating around there neighboorhood then went aback and had dinner and played games and just enjoyed eachothers company . It was so fun we had a blast. I hope we can keep doing it each year. Lando was a pirate this year and I am shocked he kept his hat on the whole time!!! Russell was a red neck!! Him and his friend went to a white trash party sat night so here are some pictures of there costume!!! Enjoy they are funny!!

This Week!

This week was all about my neice Emily! Emily is 8yrs old now. She is growing up too fast. I had the chance wed night to have a sleep over with her.It was so fun. we slept over at my sister wendys house. I watch wendy and hils girls on mon, tue, and thursday mornings. So we woke up on thursday which was early so Em and I could watch the girls. We made breakfast and then watched a movie!( i know to early to watch a movie!). My friend Larissa gave me a movie to watch it was called Penelope. Can i say that it was such a good movie, I recommend watch it. I said to Emily through the middle of the movie, "It is so nice to watch a movie while still in ur pj's" she laughed at me and said "Oh ya". After that movie she wanted to watch another one so we started to watch another one. Then later that day we went shopping, and let me tell u its hard to go shopping with a 8yr old. They want everything in site!!!! Then they cant just choose one item!! Even though i had a hard time it was all worth it to see how happy she was by the end of day!! It was my brothers weekend to have emily so on sat we had family picture taken so we had the chance to hang out with her more. That night we told emily that she could choose what was for dinner ,so after a moment of thinking she choose Chicken Pillows. and she helped do everything. She loves to help cook any second she can. We also make Halloween sugar cookie and we frosted them and decorated little pumpkins.It was so fun to have all of us together to enjoy each others company! we had a great time with emily and i hope i can see her and spend time with her!!
