Thanksgiving



   We had a great Thanksgiving this year! Mostly due to our full house, Shelly & Jeff came with their boys, Hillarie & Robert's clan, and Hank & Barb came all the way to Houston to eat turkey with us all. Thanksgiving is always my favorite holiday due to two things: #1 The incredible pumpkin pies that I have been eating since Wednesday... and #2 Holly's amazing home made rolls! Here are a few pics of the event! ....(including a memorable purchase Chloe and I made at blockbuster: Life size Zac Efron!)

MR. COOPER

Last Saturday I went and heard Anderson Cooper speak at a school in Salt Lake. He was invited as the guest speaker of the year hosted by the McCarthy family (they own the Salt Lake Trib) and he was amazing! Completely inspiring, both for his impeccable style and his powerful words. He has the most interesting background, and how he began his career is an intense tale. IF any of you don"t watch AC360 I seriously suggest you start! Or if you are really bored look up some of his background online because you will be impressed! After the speech we made our way up to the stage to be the annoying fans that blind your eyes with our cameras for a while, and I was so close to him I swear I could smell his Armani suit. 



I think he is looking at me in this one!

Thriller!

Friday night (Halloween) me and Jeff went with some friends to see Thriller! It was really good this year and we had a lot of fun...  Jeff is a good sport for going to a dance concert with me and saying he had a swell time. Then on Saturday we went down to St. George for a wedding reception of one of his friends. We took an impromptu to Vegas since we were so close, and had fun walking the strip and even riding a roller coaster! It was fun to get away, even if only for two days! 

We had to have different costumes for Thriller ~ I was Barbie and he was a professor!

Here's us at Jeff's flag football game the other night- wiping his sweat in my hair
