November Rocked!

November has been a super fun and eventful month at our house! First off I turned the big 3-0!! Wow, I am officially an adult now - yeah! Below is a picture from our big night that was taken by the driver (named Frank) that Mike hired to take us around town (that was pretty cool!)

Here is a picture of me, Mike and our nephew Logan. We took him to Play! a video game symphony at Abravanel Hall - it was super fun and I am pretty sure he loved it too :)

Thanksgiving Morning I participated in my first 5K Race. I was REALLY nervous about, well everything. How many people would be there? What if I couldn't do it? How different is outside running then a treadmill? The list goes on and on, but I won't subject you to my crazy.
Anyway - I LOVED IT! Turns out that being outside with a MASSIVE group of people is totally my style. I am already looking forward to my next race!

Also, I decided to give cooking Thanksgiving dinner a try this year. WOW it was a lot of work, but some yummy results. I am most proud of my apple pie. Yes I am putting pictures of food on my blog, oh well, that is me now. The crust was ridiculously hard for me and I had to roll it out about a million times, but it was quite delicious!


It looks very simple, but took a very long time to get to eating part. I guess that is what Thanksgiving is all about right?

Hope everyone had a great holiday!

More Family Pictures

This picture makes me smile, I am going to title it "Life with a puppy"
This picture it totally Remi's personality, I love it!

Thanks again Ashley - You rock!

Happy Halloween!

Keith and Allie were nice enough to let me spend Halloween with their family in Vegas (and Mike was nice enough to hand out candy while I was gone!) We had a Great time (as usual) and I am already looking forward to next time!

Hannah and Nick were waiting for a pony ride and not interested in looking at the camera :)
Master pumpkin carvers hard at work

I sure do love this cute family!

This is one of my favorite pictures because it is not posed, just a lot of love!

We went to a Halloween party Friday night. Here is the end of a "mummy" game we played - we almost won!

Is it just me or does it look like Keith and I just wanted to go on this ride? (Hannah and Nick are with us in case you were wondering!)

Oh man - This guy did not do very well in the haunted house!

Hope everyone had a great Halloween like we did!
