Uh-Oh!

Well, we were on our 6 hour drive back home today, and got SNOWED IN!!! It was extremely windy in R.S., but other than that the weather was great. We didn't even think to check the weather for our drive. About 20 minutes into it we noticed one of the road and travel signs flashing "I-80 closed Laramie to Cheyenne". After further investigation and checking on weather/road conditions, we decided to turn back. We'll try again tomorrow.

On another note we have had an excellent week. Football games, food, fun, family, traveling, relaxing, movies, games, parties...what more could we ask for in a Thanksgiving vacation. I got some great pictures, so check back!

Visitors

I unfortunately don't have ANY pictures from this weekend-so sad.

Tommys dad, brother and his wife flew into Denver on Thursday night for a quick visit and to see the Cougs play. Friday night I got a babysitter (thanks Ashlyn!!!!) and we headed out to dinner at the Grande Lux Cafe and it was divine! It was so nice to eat with adults and not worry about any kids. On our way home we stopped by Redbox to get a movie. The selection was scarce, but Jen and I decided on The Eye (scary thriller starring Jessica Alba).

The next morning we headed off to Costco to pick up some food to grill up for dinner after the game. At noon everyone headed out, (the boys and I stayed behind because of the weather and the length of games) and enjoyed watching BYU win! Once they got home we made a great dinner of steaks, salmon, rosemary herb bread, and asparagus. It was sooo good. We enjoyed some yummy chocolate cake for dessert and fell asleep to the movie Get Smart.

Sunday we made waffles and visited until it was time for everyone to head to the airport. I had to speak in Sacrament and give a lesson in Young Womens so I was dreading having to do that. We had a good full weekend and hope that everyone had a good time. Thanks for coming to visit!

Brotherly love




Ashton is such a sweet big brother. He likes to snuggle with Weston in the mornings. They sit in the big chair together with a blanket. Ashton is getting to be a great talker. He talks Weston's ear off and Weston just grins at him. It's so cute!

Model in training



Well we are back. Tommy had 2 work trips to go on, so we decided to head up to Wyoming to visit my family. The boys had so much fun seeing everyone, and we were even lucky enough to be there for Halloween. We missed Tommy but took plenty of pictures (unfortunately my camera died and I forgot the charger, so they are all on my moms camera so we'll wait to post about Halloween later).

It's nice being home, although we miss everyone especially Ashton who played non-stop. Today has been a day filled with laundry and cleaning-the basic post vacation routine. Ashton kept bringing me Tommy's hair stuff so I thought why not give him a new do. He thought it was pretty funny looking at himself in the mirror. We definitely got some good pictures!

Check back for pictures and posts from our trip and Halloween.
