Happy December!

Do you ever have days where it seems like every single person you pass is staring at you incredulously? And you have no idea why, and after checking yourself out in the mirror you confirm that you look fine, so why the heck are all those people so weird? Yeah like today.

Some Thanksgiving highlights:

• The delicious pie I made that we ate over the course of several days.
• Seeing Twilight with Nancy and the Dowse girls (hilariously delightful)
• Thanksgiving dinner with my second cousins and the Scott/Nancy fam
• Hanging out with Katy P.
• Seeing Australia (very Baz Luhrmann, which to me = amazing)
• Amanda's official engagement (finally!)
• Gallivanting through Provo in the middle of the night while hand-delivering a bunch of bridal shower invitations
• Chili's chips and queso
• Black Friday shopping, even though we didn't buy anything
• Babysitting for my cousins
• Burger Supreme
• Dinner with Council Bluffs and Emily--for the first time, Kyle and I made turkey, gravy, and stuffing
• TONS of Christmas shopping and bridal shower planning!

We've been listening to Christmas music nonstop, and this week I hope to get some Christmas decorations up. I want to feel the holiday spirit as much as possible, even though I won't be at home with the family until just before Christmas. I can't believe there's only like 3 weeks of school left. The semester has flown by, hallelujah. Just a couple of obstacles left!

I was postponing publishing this post because I have some pictures, but they just won't load. Oh well.

I am done with ALL of my Christmas shopping. Yes. It is December 2nd and I am declaring myself DONE. (Except for, you know, my dear husband. I have no clue what to do about that)

Happy birthday Dad!!
