i'm thankful for you.

This weekend was outrageous. I loved every second of it.

My family went to Disneyland, so we spent the weekend with Dewy's family. It was a blast. Aunt Tina and Uncle Brent came up from Texas, and because they were here we decided to have Thanksgiving and Christmas all in one day. It was a week long celebration. Monday we went to my in laws to welcome the travelers, and we went back on Wednesday to hang out. Wednesday night Uncle Brandon and Aunt Shelby and their kids were there to party with us. Two awesome events from that evening: Meet Coy.

1- Coy (Brandon and Shelby's two year old that I ADORE) asked if he could have a sip of my drink. As I let him taste my Diet DP he pulled a sour face and said "That apple juice is SPICY!" So cute.
2- Coy went around the room asking everyone what they were thankful for. As he got to Dewy, Dewy said, "I'm thankful for Gabe, Wyatt, and Noah. (Those are Coy's brothers) And thats all." To which Coy responded, "I'm thankful for you." Way to go Dewy.



Thursday Dewy and I slept in and made it to Aunt Tammy and Uncle Kelly's in Provo at 12pm. We went around the room naming off real things we were thankful for, and I learned a lot about the people I was surrounded by. I grew to love them even more. After we ate, we had a turkey shoot.

I was frickin L E G I T. Tina took first, but I took second after they harassed me about not knowing what I was doing. Lame. At about 4PM we busted out Christmas.
We played musical chairs, acted out stories, and then sat and relaxed for a while before heading to our sleeping arrangements. Mine and Dewy's were at the Comfort Inn and Suites--compliments of Uncle Brandon. Thank you sir
.
Here are the rounds of musical chairs. The adults were the funniest.

We had some coloring contests as well. Observe the artists.

This is Brooke, Dewy's cousin. She is adorable, and her girls are darling. Scout and Boston. Could you come up with anything cuter to name them? Of course not. And baby girl number three is on the way.

Grandpa Tuckett gave us booties and I am a huge fan. Here is Tate acting as the bootie model. Nice.

Friday morning I did indeed dare to go out into Black Friday. I have NEVER done the early shopping thing before, and I'm slightly upset about all my wasted years. We began at 4 where we went to Target. As we pulled into the parking lot, and my lovely green eyes beheld the atrocious line that wrapped around the parking lot and behind the building, I felt slightly afraid for my life. I was sitting in the car when they opened the door, and I feared for everyone else's life when I saw them all stampeding inside. Holy crap. I got a whole bunch of fantastic films for dirt cheap. Hoo Rah. After target we hit University Mall. Um super cheap hoodies from Aero and AE? Don't mind if I do! I may or may not have gotten slightly out of control waiting for American Eagle to open. The employee's kept lying to us! Gentrie and Tiesha kicked the doors, and I merely shook them a bit while getting glared at from a not-so-impressed cashier inside. Lame. Anyway... I snatched a bunch of goodies, and got pretty much all of Christmas taken care of. When I informed Dewy that he got me a hoodie and I loved it he told me "I know I'm the man."

We took pictures to keep ourselves from knocking the door down and tearing apart their Christmas tree. Here is Gentrie and Tawni and I in our sweats. Gentrie, don't be mad.

Cute.

The weekend was an absolute blast.
