THE MANY HAPPENINGS.....

Well....I'm back from Denver!! I had the best time with Zac, Chelsea, and Gavin! It was a much needed trip in so many ways! I didn't take many pictures (I know surprise!) just because there wasn't much to take pictures of. I mean yes I took tons of Gavin but none that I like enough to post on the blog. So we had tons of fun shopping (lots of shopping!), sleeping, and just chilling at home eating tons of food! Nothing could be better than that if you ask me! So I went and stayed with Nancy and John for a night before my flight the next morning. They sure are a hoot! We just laughed and laughed and laughed! It was so great of Brian and Heather to come see me while I was there too!!! I sure do love you all!!! But it was a great trip and I am glad to be home!

Thanksgiving was AWESOME here!! Mom made the BEST turkey on the face of this planet! I seriously could have eaten it all day long which we pretty much did! It was so GREAT!! Lee and his family came which is always a pleasure seeing them when we can!!! Oh boy are they funny! Dinner was an adventure that is for sure!

Last night we took family pictures which was quite the task. We didn't want to pay for a photographer when I could take them at my studio for free. So I set up the tri-pod and we had Tiff's boyfriend put the button when everyone was ready. They turned out FANTASTIC!!! We are all just a bunch of goofs and had a fun time being together to do that! It was before Zac's mission that we got them taken last! It was time for an upgrade! Below are some of the pictures from that night....the rest are on my facebook page if you would like to see them! I hope everyone is well and enjoying the holiday season!!! I sure do love this time of year!!! Everyone is so much happier with life and all!!! YAY!!!

Big Plans!

Well for those who don't know I got my plane ticket to go visit Zac, Chelsea, and Gavin! And for those of you who didn't know that I guess you don't know how INCREDIBLY EXCITED I am!!!!! It is probably all I talk about...okay maybe not all I talk about but its either Denver or work. I will be taking a shuttle on the 16th and my favorite Uncle John will pick me up then my flight leaves the next morning. There was one condition that I had to agree to for John (aka Jack-sometimes I just like to change it) and that was I had to make him chicken alfredo. Ha ha! Which I am more than happy to do so! So I will be in Denver for a week then I will just ride with Zac and Chels home for Thanksgiving. I am in need of this vacation! Mostly I just need to get out of Idaho and not have to think about any thing (ex. boys, work, church callings, work, boys...the list goes on!) I have been wanting to go to Denver since those trials (but so many blessing came from it!) I encountered a couple of months ago and now work has slowed down for a couple of months and I leapt to the chance. I don't even care if we do absolutely nothing while I am there! I'm just SO excited to go! I will post pictures when I get back! :)

I also know that most of you that read this blog have not seen me in the last couple of days. I colored my hair. Now you must be thinking "Well duh, Amanda! Every one now a days colors their hair!" Which is true! But I dramatically colored my hair! Its a DARK red-brown color with highlights. I totally would take a picture of me right now for you to see these gorgeous locks (Heather you would LOVE it i'm sure) but I am in my pajamas and don't intend on getting out of them seeing as how it is my day off. You will just have to wait and see...it is darker than Tiffany's lets just leave it at that.

So the parents are away and so me and Nic are going to play! We have planned the wildest party anyone has ever seen! It will probably last until at least 7 o'clock at night! Ha ha! Just kidding! 8 o'clock! Oh I make myself laugh if no one else is reading this. Anyways...lots of fun going on here as always! Sorry I don't have any pictures this time around! Next post there will plenty to make up for it! Love you all! Remember who you are! CHURCH IS TRUE!!!!
