We had a great Thanksgiving this year! It was a nice break before the onslaught of finals next week! We headed down to SG and celebrated with the Parry family. Toph and I continued the pie making tradition and watched "Son In Law" while making chocolate cream, coconut cream, and praline pecan pie the day before!
After dinner the gals gathered around the table and planned our shopping strategy for "black Friday!" It wasn't as crazy as in years past . . . we honestly did less shopping that day and avoided the stores bursting with people who were foaming at the mouth and ready to fight! Erin and I being the adventurous ones that we are went to a midnight showing of Twilight Friday night!! Yep we were up for 24 hours by the time our heads hit the pillow (crazy I know!) But it was fun . . . and now onto Christmas! I did get my fall/Thanksgiving decor put away Saturday and have started hauling out Christmas boxes . . . but we are honestly a little too stressed and busy with school papers and final prep to decorate today! But it will get done! Oh, the Childrens Christmas parade is this Saturday, Dec 6th @ 2:00 if anyone wants to come! I will make goodies and we can do lunch! It really is fun!

Oh my word! How cute are you two! I can't even begin to tell you how much I miss you! Chris, we have to get tight again! Life is too short not to keep in touch. There is no excuse in the world not to call each other because family comes first! It takes just a couple minutes out of our day! If we don't, we might regret it one day. I love you both so much. Emily, I can't wait to meet you someday! Hopefully we are coming to Utah in the summer. Give each other a big hug and kiss for me! XOXOXOXO
