Our Fun Turkey Day!

Nate and I have both been really really busy this week so we haven't had a chance to post our Thanksgiving pictures. So today, while Nate takes a nap, I thought I would update our blog. So Thanksgiving was a blast! Wednesday night after work we went up to my parents to stay for a couple of days. Nathan and Danae spent the night there too. We watched "Live Free or Die Hard" which originally I was not excited about but it ended up being an awesome movie! A little unrealistic, but it was still entertaining. Then on Thanksgiving morning, Nate woke up early and went and played football with Swen and Aaron and a bunch of Swen's friends. After that, we went to my family's annual bowling competition (where I definitely lost!). We go with my mom's side of the family every year and it is always tons of fun. On my lane it was my mom, my dad, Nate, Johny (a cousin), and me. And my dad and Nate were definitely the best.

Here's Nate posing for the camera...And here's some more family pictures... After a couple of games of bowling, a few people found DANCE DANCE in the back of the bowling alley. So Stephen started playing first and then a bunch of other people joined in. Even my grandma tried! It was so fun to watch everyone! Stephen did some crazy dances.My mom even did it for the first time and she did great!Then Andrew and Melanie competed against each other and it was fun to watch.
After bowling my mom took a picture of all of us kids for the Christmas card this year. Here's the fam:

Then we headed up to David and Deanne's house for dinner and ate some great food! The Curtis family are all AMAZING cooks so we definitely had a good Thanksgiving Dinner. We spent the night at my parents again. On Friday I made Nate and I matching Christmas pillowcases and then we went over to his parent's house and hung out for a while and ended up staying there for the night. Diane helped me making a Christmas stocking and it turned out so cute! I want to make a lot more now :) Saturday we finally got back to our place and then got ready for the game! And wow, the game was SO EXCITING! Well, actually only the last few minutes, but it was fun to be there. Once Utah got a touchdown, I thought we had no hope, but BYU pulled through!

After that we went out to dinner with my family. So we had a very busy but fun weekend! Monday was hard when reality hit again and we were back working and in school - and getting ready for the semester to end soon. Although it was a long week, we really enjoyed it because on Wednesday we went to the first official doctor appointment for our baby on the way! It was so great! We went and met Dr. Lind and he is SO friendly and helpful. We got an ultrasound and it was so fun to see that our baby is completely healthy! It was good reassurance that everything is going as planned. Our due date is still June 17th (Nate's b-day) so I'm glad it wasn't pushed back too much. Also, we put an offer in for a condo we loved and it was accepted! We already tried putting an offer in on another one and the selling agent was difficult to work with. So we kept looking and we came across this condo which is perfect for us! Plus, it's a lot bigger than all the other ones we have looked at. It has a nice big kitchen, living room, and master bedroom. We close on January 4th and we can't wait to move into it! Except we are NOT excited to move for the fourth time after being married for only 1 year! But it will be worth it.
