Celebrating the Holidays in one weekend...

So since JD is still pretty new at his job he doesnt get any priority with time off this holiday season. So we are stuck here- working- the whole time. Although I think that this was actually a blessing in disguise because now we get to celebrate both Thanksgiving and Christmas 2 times this year!
We Just flew home from our first celebration in Utah with the Prices. We had a blast with everyone!! We are so lucky to have such fun families on both sides! So Friday was kind of a catch up day as some of us were still flying in and arriving. The girls got away to see Twilight (and for those of you who havent seen it, youre not missing anything)while the boys watched the kids.
Saturday was our Thanksgiving dinner complete with Turkey, stuffing and all the works. I realize what a long way I have to go when I see his mother and sisters with their culinary magic and their baby skills!
And on Sunday we were priveledged in helping welcoming Luke Browning Barrett into the family with his baby blessing. Sunday was christmas and Santa came early to the Price's this year! There are 4 nephews all under the age of 3 and one on the way. needless to say- I have SO MUCH respect for those with mulitple BOYS in the house. Between the sword fights, throwing food, and learning the concept of sharing it was a very eventful weekend. Here is what happens when a two year old gets a hold of your camera.




Uncle JD and Luke managed to squeeze in a little bonding time

Even though I look bald, sky looks half his actual size, and jill looks twice her actual size, its the only one that the boys actually got in focus...

Start the OOOhs and AWWWs... We quite possibly have the cutest nephews alive.

and even though BYU totally disappointed...

we had the perfect early holiday weekend



And if it means getting more weekends like that- I could even get used to the cold


We look forward to the next time we can all be together again! Thanks for such a fun weekend, we love you guys!!

Free Stuff!!!

We are really excited for election day this year! There are reports that this election is supposed to break all sorts of records. And in efforts to get voters to the polls, businesses are giving away free stuff. So JD and I are making our rounds, beginning at breakfast and ending with dinner for an all expense paid day of free meals!!
So, to all of you who are not that political, and may still be debating whether you should vote or not, do it to get the free stuff! All you have to do is show your "I Voted" sticker and collect your free merchandise.

Starbucks is offering a free Small cup of anything you want. Their amazing Carmel Apple Cider is back in season and I would definitely recommend trying it... its free!!Ben and Jerry's will give you a free scoop of Ice Cream between 5-8 pm.


Krispy Kreme has designed a new doughnut specifically for election day. It is red white and blue sprinkled and if you get there at the right time you could enjoy a nice hot one- for free!!This Picture does not do this sandwich justice. If you have had Chick-fil-a before than you know what im talking about. show your sticker and get a free chicken sandwich!

And there's more. Top it all off with a free Grand Slam meal from Denny's!!
Some of these things may be regional. Call ahead and make sure that the location nearest you is offering these promotions. and most importantly-
DONT FORGET TO VOTE!!
And please, to those of you who live in California, please help PROTECT OUR FAMILIES. Thousands of people up and down the coast of this wonderful state have pulled together- putting religion, race, and any other barriers aside to join forces to campaign for prop 8.
thats all im going to say- Yes on Prop 8.

HAPPY ELECTION DAY!!!
