Thanksgiving Holiday

What a great week we had with family and friends. Waking up at 5am on Thanksgiving day I cooked the turkey the way Joseph does it when he is home. It took 7 hours but it was delicious!! We joined our friends Scott, Manasseh, Ben and Chara for Thanksgiving diner and we had a nice relax time. Awesome diner, games, secret Chai tea from Scott ... Then on Friday morning I got up at 5 am to experience my first Black Friday with my friends Rachel and Ruth. Got what I needed out it and I was able to not get tempted by their so called Black Friday deals :) 

I found a cute 6 feet high fresh cut tree at Home Depot and Riley and I decorated it, helped by Erin who was visiting. All the while listening to Christmas song, and following this by watching some cute Christmas movies. Love it!!!

And as a good treat to finish the holiday, I went with Rachel to see (again) Breaking Dawn Part 1. No shame!

Awesome Birthday ... 29 y/o

Saturday was a great day, spent with friends and with Riley. 29y/o! I can't believe how time flies! 

My loving Joseph had Scott and Manasseh delivered me some gorgeous flowers and a card with words that melted my heart. We are now three months into the deployment ... 9 more to go!

I got spoiled by my friends and we had an awesome time, chatting, drinking some nice wine, eating some delicious goodies, and having a Twilight Marathon. I know that sounds strange but two of my friends had not seen it and we wanna go see the new one coming out this Thursday. 

Awesome cake made by Rebecca

Watching the movie on the curtains!!!

So romantic! Thank you Madison and Carson. You are the cutest kids ever!
