Thanksgiving!!

Oh wow..well I have not posted in forever, it is because I have been out of town! I went house sitting someones house, that's right Carol and I were all by ourselves for a whole week. I felt so mature, making all of our own meals and cleaning up after them because I wanted to not just cause my mom told me to, doing a few loads of laundry and taking care of the dogs. Not to mention we watched the whole first two seasons of Vampire Diaries! I am obsessed with that show so much it is ridiculous! If I had to recommend a TV show it would either be that or Prison Break, I really don't watch a lot of TV but I have spent my fare amount of time watching those shows. 

Thanksgiving was a Joy, even though we were all the way out in Springville we did come home for that. My family went to Angie's house ( who is a partner at my mom's Firm). It was a lot of fun, at times it was a little awkward cause i didn't know anybody and we were the only ones who weren't family but they were supper nice :) It was one of my first Thanksgiving's not with Family. Let me just say I am so grateful for family, you have no idea how much they really mean to you until you don't have them around. Living so far away from any family has been one of the hardest things I have ever had to do but it has just taught me that we need to treasure the time we have with them.

I have been trying to cook and clean more to help my mom out. Tonight I made Pad Tai and homemade Spring Rolls .... and oh my heck they were Delicious!

I am so excited for Christmas! I have to go to my dad's house which I am not excited about but other than that I ecstatic for feeling and spirit that this season brings. It seems like the last couple of months of the year are always so emotional for me, every little thing gets the water works going! I cant wait to curl up in blankets with long socks and watching movies and sipp hot drinks :) Doing service is always my favorite! We are going to dress up as elves and go around with Santa to peoples houses for YW's and I seriously cant wait! The only thing I cant stand is Christmas shopping, don't get my wrong i love to give gifts but trying to get the perfect one is killer! I have already started listening to Christmas music so I am super Pumped!

Here is a little of the Biebs to get those Christmas juices flowing! 

So for this next week my goals are keep my room clean..do ALL of my homework..and try to help make more of the meals! So Long for now!
