So to catch everyone up, the past couple of months have been busy but enjoyable. In October we met up with the Treasures in Kanab. Why Kanab, well why not? For one thing it's about halfway between Phoenix and Springville. It also happens to be two hours from a handful of National Parks. From Kanab we visited Bryce Canyon and the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. We had a great time hanging out with everyone and seeing the sights. We really made some great memories, like Jordan and his hat, and Ryan and Josh's discovery of "the caves".
Once back home in Glendale we wrapped up the month with Halloween. We didn't have great costumes (kind of the norm with us), but we did carve pumpkins with Russ which has become a tradition. The Lemons were in town for John and Amica's wedding. It was fun to get together and see everyone. The weather was beautiful and it was a great day for a wedding.
We started November out with our 4 year anniversary. It's unbelievable how fast time flies. We are so greatful for each other and our marriage. We look forward to many more.
Jessica came to visit over Veterans Day weekend, Trav couldn't make it because of work. Josh was so excited for me to have some girl time. We had lots of fun shopping, laughing at really old inside jokes and just doing girlie things. With Jess even traffic is loads of fun - that's its own story.
Thanksgiving was funny because we didn't know who was coming until right before. It all worked out though. We hosted Thanksgiving at our house with Russ's help. Brad, Katie, and Spencer made the long drive for turkey, and we had plenty of turkey. We had a great meal, we missed Mom and Dad, but it was great to have all the siblings together. While they were here we did a little bit of everything; a little rock band, a little hiking, a little bit of "rock Frisbee", and of course a little bit of crazy black Friday shopping. We also fit in some movies in too. All in all, it was really great to have everyone here and sad to see them leave.
