Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a busy weekend. First of course, was Thanksgiving. We went down to Fruit Heights to my mom's house this year. The food was great and the company even better. Brian went down to Provo that morning to play football with some of his mission buddies and ripped my favorite shirt while making a touchdown. I guess it was worth it. Then we had a wonderful dinner that made me fuller than I've been in a long time. After dinner, Brian went with the brothers-in-law to see Transporter 3. Us girls just stayed home with the kids and chatted for hours. It was great. I love getting together with family. This was also Ethan's first holiday but of course I forgot my camera so hopefully I'll get some pictures from my sister soon so I can post them.
Then we got together again with everyone except Tara to take my dad out for his Christmas present. We went to dinner at the Olive Garden in Riverdale, which was fantastic as always. But it took forever for them to seat us so we had to hurry and eat to get to our movie on time. Then we went to the new Megaplex in Ogden to see Quantum of Solace. It was a lot of fun. I loved the theater. It was really comfortable and that was nice because I was holding Ethan the whole time. Again, another first for Ethan, his first movie theater experience! I admit I was really nervous to take him because he's pretty fussy at night but he did amazing. He just slept the whole time and didn't make a sound. He hardly even jumped when the movie got really loud. It was great to get out and have fun with everyone.
And today, we're going over to Brian's parents' house to have dinner with everyone. I'm really excited to get together with the other side of our family. And hopefully this week, we'll get our Christmas tree and lights up. I love Christmas! It's my favorite time of year. Happy holidays everyone!
