Merry Christmas

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. We had a great Christmas! Matt woke up at 4:30 in the morning excited because SANTA came. He was excited to get his presents because I always get him great Presents.(if he is this excited now just wait until we have kids) He went down stairs and turned on the Christmas music and the Fire place. I laid in bed til about 5:30 and I got tired of him asking me every ten minutes if I was coming to see what Santa brought me so I finally went down stairs to open presents. We got a lot of great stuff games, books, and 16 DVDs. After we opened presents we went to his parents house, his grandmas house and then my parents house. After a long day we went home and relaxed and watch a movie. But about 7 we realized that we had no groceries and we wanted to eat dinner so we went to the Denny's in American fork but it was closed so we drove to to sandy and waited for an hour just to sit. It took about another 30 minutes to get our food. The wind was blowing & it was snowing so hard that by the time we got home it was almost ten o'clock. I had to work early the next day so by the time we got home it was time for bed. So next year we will have to remember to go grocery shopping before Christmas. I can not believe that Christmas is already over and we are starting a new year. It feels like 2008 just started. I hope every one has a Happy New Year.



Walnut was a little tired after opening presents.

Christmas Party

We had a sibling Christmas Party at our house on Saturday. We had a luncheon and then exchanged gifts. It was a lot of fun everyone.
Tawnya & Eric had me & Matt, they got us this really fun domino's game called chicken feet. So everyone stayed late and we played that while the kids played in the toy room. I only took a few pictures so here they are.

Christmas Tree

So Matt & I have been married for five years and we have never had our own Christmas Tree because we lived in his parents basement. So we were so excited to decorate our own tree & hang the stockings on the mantel. Here are some Pictures....










Walnut even helped decorate by taking the balls off the tree!!!

So Friday I took the day off work and went and saw Twilight. I loved it. I know books are always better but I thought the Movie was great. On Saturday we went bowling with Shawn, Kim, Zach, Aubrey, Mollie, Jenny, Jase, Brent & Terrie. It was a lot of fun. I have not been bowling in along time and I really sucked. Kim won every game but I got second place. Afterward Shawn & the kids came over. Matt ,Shawn, and Zach played video games and watched the BYU vs U of U football game while me and the kids made sugar cookies and decorated them. It was a lot of fun. Here are some cute pictures. Enjoy!

Halloween

So I know Halloween is over but I thought I would upload some pictures. Halloween is my favorite Holiday. Me and Matt made a rice crispy haunted house and decorated it. I decorated the house and bought a ton of candy. I was so excited to hand out candy, and when the time came we only got maybe 15 Trick or treaters. My friend Calla brought her six kids and they trick or treated in our neighborhood. Then Chris brought Max & Cameron over they were so cute. Stacie & Ty brought their kids over they were cute also. Then we went to Tawnya's for her chili which I look forward to every year. We also had a Halloween party at work and Lindsay brought the kids. The week before we had bunco at Tawnya's and we all dressed up it was really fun.

Walnut

I finally convinced Matt that we needed a kitty. I was looking at my friends blog the other day and they had it posted that they had kittens they where getting rid of, so I send Matt an email telling him I really wanted a cat and I would respect his answer even if he really did not want one. So he emailed me back and said we could look at them. They live in the neighborhood next to ours so we went that night and looked at them and he let me bring one home. The little girl had named him Walnut so I kept it. But Matt keeps forgetting his name and calling him Oscar and I keep calling him Puppy. He is so cute.

Home

I figured I would post some pictures of our house all out together since I have had a lot of people say they want to see it.It is not completely done it does need paint. I am kinda tired of the white walls but Matt & I suck at painting so if you are good at it come on over.

This is our bedroom. It is just plain that is about half of it. It is huge and I have not idea how to decorate so if you have any ideas let me know

This is the view out our bedroom window.

This is the office maybe when we get a desk it will look more like a office.
