Papito & Nannie's 50th Anniversary

On Saturday my Dad's parents had their 50th wedding anniversary party. It was very nice. We had it at the Farmhouse at Schnepf farms. It was fun to see all my extended family that I don't get to see that often. It was a little family reunion. My grandparents had some friends come that they have known since they had been married, it was neat to meet them. They all kept telling me "oh my goodness I remember you when you were just this high." and then they say "wow have you grown up."

it was very cold last night though. I think my toes are still frozen! Here are some pic's of my family. There was a photographer there and these were all taken the same time she was taking them.

BLACK FRIDAY!

So my mom and i woke up at 4 am and went shopping amongst the crazy people out there. any way we had a great time. We went to Walmart 1st and that was crazy. people were crowded around tv's and stuff just waiting for the 5 oclock announcement so they could grab what they wanted. i was bummed they didn't get the guitar hero shippment in so i had to go to another walmart but my aunt & uncle in prescott were at walmart up there and found it for me. so merry x-mas brandon. After walmart we attempted Target but there were over 1000 people waiting in line just to get in. so i gave up on that and we went to kmart to get my mom's xmas tree. kmart needs more employee's b/c the line to check out was longer than the line to get into target( a wee bit of exaggeration;)) so after that we went back to target and it was so picked over after the 1st hour. i couldn't belive it but we still managed to find some great $3 movie deals. by the time we finished there me and mom were a little hungry so we went and grabbed a bagel then we headed off to JoAnn's in search for a sewing machine for me. but on the way we stopped at another target to see if they might have the guitar hero guitar's i was looking for and they did. i was very surprised i thought for sure they wouldn't. while we were in target my mom ran into someone who had just come from JoAnn's and they said if you are getting fabric get your ticket right away b/c they waited for 1hr till they got their fabric cut, WOW! so we got our ticket right away when we got there. the first thing we looked at were sewing machines. they were having great deals my mom got me a singer. i am so excited. When she bought it she said Happy Birthday & Merry Christmas. se say's that with almost everything she gets me but this time it is for real;) in the end my mom and i did pretty good with everything we got. I am done christmas shopping well except for a few little things but pretty much done. i love black friday!



after shopping i went to my aunt MaryAnn's and quilted my first quilt. that was so fun i can't wait till my quilt is finished. but here is a pic of all the stuff my mom and i bought and my quilt that i quiltted.

Happy Turkey Day!

We spent thanxgiving with Brandon's family this year it was so much fun. We had Dinner at his parents house. i got to carve the turkey(that was cool). The food was wonderful. after we ate we just chilled out for a little bit and reminisced about thanxgivings when we were kids. It was fun to hear of some of the old traditions Brandon's family had.
Then we went to the movies and saw August rush such a good movie I loved it. If you haven't seen it I would recomend, esspecially if you enjoy music.
That was what we did for turkey day.
Here are some pics from thx giving

Dog Sitting

So this past week Brandon and I(mostly me) have been waching my mom's dog (my dog before i got married) Gizmo. It is so sad the past 2 days he has been so sad, everytime i come to see him he thinks my mom is coming in the house after me and he waits by the door. i took a picture of him he is out cold on the bathroom floor. it was so cute. He is the best dog.

My mom come's home on thursday i hope he can make it a few more days. ;)

Okay so i wasnt allowed to go watch Brandon play dodgeball this morning. i was a little bumed out but i really wanted to have some pics to put on our blog so i took some silly ones of us in the car driving home from walmart today. here they are...

Date Night

Brandon and I went on a date tonight to the movies. We saw the movie Martian Child it was very good. It is about a man who adopts a boy who thinks he is a martian from Mars. it is a great family movie i would recomend it to my friends and family.
After the movie we got ice cream at coldstone which it usually a good thing but i think it is now too cold for icecream outside at night;) and for some reason my chocolate ice cream tasted like bannanas(grose).
So here is a quick update on us.....
Brandon is participating in a charity event with his accounting club tomarrow morning. They are having a Dodgeball competition. I think it is kinda funny. I might go to take some pics of the action. It should be fun. I am going to be working on Christmas gifts tomarrow. I think it is crazy that Christmas is almost here this year went so fast. unfortunatly i think they just get faster and faster.
That's all for now.
