On Wednesday we got to take Jeffrey down to the MTC! I can't believe he is going to be gone for 2 years. I mean seriously 2 years. This is going to be TUFFFFF! 4 days down only 726 to go!
The family - It was definitely hard to say goodbye but it sure helped that Jeffrey was so excited
She actually let him go. We thought we were going to have to drag her out of the MTC
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY JULIE! Wow 24 big ones! Can you believe we've been celebrating together for 20 years! I hope you have an awesome birthday! I wish you were here to celebrate

Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS! I hope you all had a wonderful season. I can't believe it's already over

We spent Christmas with the Adam's this year. It was lots of fun and nice to not have to be driving all over the place on Christmas day

We built a snow man on Christmas day. It was huge but lots of fun! I think the best part was Dave (Danny's dad) concerned about messing up the backyard with tracks! Love him!

You wouldn't believe it took six adults to get Madi dressed and ready to play in the snow

The annual gingerbread making night! Unfortunately we had some cave ins!

All my cute high school friends! Amanda-Rose-Me-Elise-Danielle-Lindsay-Carlie-Andra-Mariah-Hillary-Megan-Jill-Lindsay! It was so much fun to see everyone

Watches

I forgot to put this on my post yesterday. I have been making these beaded watch bands and I am selling them this weekend at a party in Bountiful . It is at the Muir's house which is on Canyon Oaks Circle right off of 1800 South. It is right by Biz Lalli's old house. Anyways it is Saturday from 10 to 4! So I would love to see anyone there! Also I am doing another party in Logan the 3 week of December.

FAMILY TIME!

Well it's official - The Thompson are finally going to have a missionary after 3 girls. We all couldn't be more excited. All I can say is Jeffrey is one lucky missionary. He is going to be getting some of the best packages in the world! He is going to ...................................................................... the Tulsa, OK mission. He really is so excited and so ready to go.
Jeffrey was really nervous to read his call so my dad snook up behind him and read it. Now for those of you who know my dad just imagine him jumping around and yelling yes. Mean time we were all still wondering where he was going.
The whole Thompson family minus Brett. It quite the event. Its the only time we will open a mission call in our family!
All the grandkids love to play dress ups. The best part is most of those are my old dance costumes.
Some of my favorite people! Danny and I felt more comfortable sitting at the kids table for Thanksgiving.

Our cute niece Madi at the Adam's family Christmas party. You can imagine Danny loves this picture. He taught Madi to say "Go Yankees"!
Cute little Sammy - we had a little scare yesterday. I came home from work and she was gone. Danny was out of town so I was a nervous wreck! I feel like Sammy is my baby. Lucky we have great neighbors who found her and took care of her

OCTOBER FUN

Our pride and joy - we spent hours carving these! Danny's is a Yankees sign, mine is a witch and Sammy's is a little paw print!
Oh Sammy, we made her get in the garbage can to smash the leaves down - great fun!
Raking leaves in the back yard - Sammy was having all kinds of fun running around in them
The Logan Pumpkin Walk! A bunch of talented people in the community make all sorts of scenes using pumpkins. With my brother-in-law Josh, Will, Drew and there neighbor Ava
Andra's wedding lunch. It was such a fun day and I am so excited for Jordan and Andra - they make the cutest couple! Plus it is always so much fun to see old friends.
Happy 23rd Birthday me! Danny was so cute and had such a fun night planned out for me.
Halle "Berry" Butterfield as Danny likes to call her! Our newest niece! She is so stinking cute. We now are the proud aunt & uncle of 7 kids - 3 girls and 4 boys! I just wish they all lived closer to us like Will and Drew.

BOSTON & Cape Cod

So I think I was suppose to live in Boston. Maybe it will happen someday. We'll keep dreaming! We had such a good time in Boston. Danny had to work and I wasn't going to let him go without me so we kinda had a pre-birthday trip. The only down fall was I lost my blanket that I've had since birth. Only a few of you will honestly understand the magnitude of this but don't worry I am trying to get over it.
At Boston Commons, Danny was having a great time pestering the ducks.
Danny visiting his great great great grandpas grave "Samuel Adams"!
Walking around Boston - honestly I could move there tomorrow. I love that city so much. I think it is the most beautifully designed city I have ever been to. A landscape Architects paradise!
On the USS Constitution Ship - we found out that they actually still sail it twice a year
At the end of the Freedom Trail - out on Boston Harbor
Walking along the beach in Martha's Vineyard.
This was so cool, during a certain time of the day the tide would go out and you could walk out in the water. It was so awesome, it felt like you were out in the ocean
On our drive up the coast on Cape Cod, Danny wanted the top down real bad so we compromised and turned the heat on in the car so I wouldn't freeze

End of Summer

Family night at Cafe Sabor with some of my favorite people! Julie, The Adams, The Woods, The Giles and The Neils - we missed you Spenny!
Julie and Hannah came up to Logan for a couple of days! It was so much fun to spend time with them - it also opened my eyes to motherhood - wow how do all you girls do it!
Will got to have a sleep over with Danny, Sammie and me. He was in heaven - we went and got a toy and treats - now he always wants to come over for a sleep over.
A little miniature golfing - turns out I am just as bad a mini golfer as I am a real golfer - darn it
Mr and Mrs Watts!!! Yeah we love adding friends to our married friend circle
John Mayer-Colbie Caillat Concert with Besty and Matt
The Keate Family reunion up at Bear Lake, notice my 89 year old grandma, I think she looks the best of any of us!!
