Thanksgiving.

What an adventure Thanksgiving was. My parents came from Oregon to meet us in Salt Lake City. We rented a house so that we could make a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. Marcus came with his girlfriend Tamera. They announced to us the first night at dinner that they are engaged and will be getting married in Hawaii. We are very pumped about the venue!!! Maddyn absolutely loved hanging out with these two...they had enough energy for her.




The next day we had Trevors parents, Grandma, and Sister's family over for Thanksgiving dinner. My mom did most of the work and it was a fabulous dinner. Maddyn enjoyed playing with her cousins and we enjoyed the company.



On Black Friday, we didn't do much shopping. My mom and I went to Toys R Us early and got the things we needed for Maddyn. Later in the day we went to the mall and Maddyn got to see Santa. She was really excited until she realized she had to sit on his lap without me. That is when she cried and wanted to get off. Tamera and I really wanted to see New Moon so our guys were really nice and went with us. Trevor said there was a lot of staring at each other in the movie.






On Saturday we spent most of the morning trying to save Maddyn from the car. She was helping Trevor clean the car when she locked herself in. Trevor was trying to warm up the car also so it was running. We tried for a half hour to get her to push the unlock button, but all she wanted to do was dance to the music and push every other button in the car. Finally, we called the police and they came along with the fire engine with their lights on. They were able to open the car with a wedge, blood pressure cuff, and a stick. They were our hero's. The rest of the day we just hung out. That night we went to temple square to look at the lights. It was really pretty and my families first time to temple square. It was a great vacation and we enjoyed our family.
