Together Is Our Favorite Place To Be: December 2013

We had a great Thanksgiving! The month of November seemed to just fly by. We went to Boise for thanksgiving and it was a lot of fun. My uncle Danny and his family were there, along with my uncle Matt and his daughters. Rachel's boys tagged along with us and unfortunately they were not feeling well and now I have their sickness! It's a bad cough, sore throat, fever, the whole nine yards. But Thanksgiving was still a blast. Garrett and I made the sweet potatoes (well, cut and peeled them) haha. We took a nice long nap after our meal which was fabulous! And then of course we had to join in on the black Friday madness. We ended that night with breakfast at Denny's. I realized this would be my last Thanksgiving/Christmas with my brother Josh before he leaves on his mission. I fall apart every time I think about it! But I am so proud of him for wanting to serve a mission and I know he will do great out there. It's just the big sister coming out. It was no fun coming home and going back to work, that's for sure! On another positive note, our lease is up for the apartment we are in now, and we just found our new apartment and put our deposit down! It is located in Provo, right off the freeway. It has 2 bedrooms, one bathroom. It will be nice to have an extra bedroom for our craft/fitness/music/storage room, until we want kids. New carpet and paint in the unit, and the best part, a washer and dryer included!! No more carrying loads of laundry down three flights of stairs. :) I believe we will be there until Garrett graduates, or longer. Anyway, I am excited to move in but also nervous! Here are a few pictures from this month. We love you all, have a merry Christmas!
