Busy Thanksgiving Weekend

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We spent it with Chad's family and had such a good time. We ate and then just sat around together and played som Pac Man and talked. It was a fun and calm day. Just what we needed. Then on Saturday we celebrated mine and Cheryl's birthday (hers was Nov 29th and mine Dec 1st). In the morning we (Me, Chad, Cheryl, Raul, and Dust) went to breakfast and to the temple. Then later we (plus Nikki, Jared, E, Nicole, and G & G Baltazar) went to Texas Road House for dinner. They made me and Cheryl sit on the stupid saddle while they announced our birthday. Talk about embarassing. Then we went back to the house and had cake and ice cream and opened gifts and just sat around talking again. It was such a good time (well, up until I clipped little baby E's finger and made him bleed while clipping his nails...i never felt so bad). Monday, on my actual birthday, Chad took me out to eat and to spend some money (two of my favorite things!!). It was such a fun and busy week. I love spending time with the family. That is exactly why I love this time of year. Everyone makes time to spend together. It's a so fun.
