It snowed

enough said!!  My dad took my brother and i out for a driving lesson in the snow.  Driving here is totally different from Arizona not just because of the snow.  Arizona drivers are nice.  Utah drivers don't use there blinkers, let you over to change lanes, follow behind you way to close, and drive extremely fast.

Let Me..

Introduce you to my little friend.  
 So last year after Thanksgiving one of my Dads workers saw this Turkey just walking around the shop.  Yeah totally random, just taking a walk around downtown chandler.  So he caught it and brought it to me to live with my chickens.  It was so nice it would let you hold it, and the kids loved to pet it. I had my own little petting zoo, but not too long until it went CRAZY!!!
  At first my chickens and the turkey got along pretty good.  Then the Turkey became crazy with having to lay on the chickens eggs, as well as hers.  (I wish i had a picture of the turkeys eggs, they were polka dot!)  We thought thats ok fine you can lay on them, because we wanted more chickens anyway!  So we figured out how long it would take until the Chicks would hatch.
 I was going down to the farm all the time because i didn't want to miss this. So today was the day i went down with the Buelers, (awesome kids i babysat, that have my Chicken Coop!!)  They were so excited, they love my animals!!  We get there and started smelling something really bad.  We get closer to the coop and move the Turkey and this smell got so strong.  We started freaking out, it was the WORST smell ever.  It made all of us sick to our stomachs.  After we calmed down we realized the Turkey ate my baby Chicks :(( It was so sad, i could believe the Turkey would do that. 
So you want to hear what happened to the Turkey??  We let it lose and the neighbor told us a Coyote attacked it, and then his dogs attacked the Coyote.
 
Hope i didn't freak anyone out!! If your looking for a wonderful Video on the true meaning of Thanksgiving go here! Have a great Thanksgiving!!

Cinnamon Rolls

Last night i was watching tv and The Pioneer Woman Ree Drummond was on Bobby Flay!!  I love her blog, she does the cutest pictures!  So today i was looking at it and saw she has a recipe for cinnamon rolls.  I gave it a try and they turned out pretty good!  I would say they were yummy, but my brother freaks out when i say yummy.  Who cares he is not going to look at my blog, so they were so YUMMY!!

Paintings

My Aunt made these really cute paintings of her kids that are so cute!  She did such a good job on them.  So i thought i will give it a try.  My sister and this little girl i was babysitting did one all by themselves, i just helped trace.




 After doing a couple i found out i was a little off in editing them in photoshop so my brothers turned out really good!  He made one for this girls birthday, aww cute!  It was them at homecoming.

I wanted to do a painting of the Temple and remember my friend Taylor that is a photographer took this really pretty picture of the Arizona Temple.  Thanks tay i love it!

Something Different

Today the little ones raked the leaves, yeah we have never done this before.  They loved it, and thought it was so cool.  Day 4 without drinking soda, and going strong!  It has been easier then i thought, maybe because there is not a Circle k on every corner up here!

In the Spirit of Thanksgiving

My favorite Holiday is just around the corner, I'm so excited.The reasons why its my favorite is because i get to spend time with family, eat wondeful food, and take a minute to think about what I'm grateful for! Here is a video i found from a blog that i thought was really neat.

The Move

Are you ready to hear about the move???!  Lets just say it took us 17 hours to drive to Utah.  It was a very long drive, my dad drove the moving truck, i drove mine, and my mom drove hers!  So here's our moving story. *We left about 5am
*Drove for about 2 1/2 hours and had to stop because my parents were falling asleep
*Got back on the rode and drove to Flagstaff, we needed to stop and get gas and as i was getting off the free way my car started smoking.  Tons of smoke was coming out of the hood (guessing not good)..We were very lucky to find someone open on a Sunday to fix it!!!  And it only took and hour to get it fixed!
*My moms got sick, and was throwing up the rest of the way up from Flagstaff
*From Beaver to my Grandmas it was snowing the whole way, yes snowing.  I was i could be excited about that but i was not!  It was my first time driving in snow and guess what it was a blizzard.  I tried to act like i was not scared, but i so was.  It probably was the most stressful 6 hours of my life.
*I will never drive from arizona to Utah again!!!
After all of our trials getting to Utah, I'm so grateful that we were able to make it here safely! 
Its so cold, i had to have my blanket around me! ha

House That Built Me

My family and i have moved Two times in the last six months, yes been a little crazy.  The house that we were just in i loved it!  It was a little home on a farm. My mom made it look really cute.  Even though we only lived there for 6 months, i feel like i lived there for years.  Loved it so much!!  This is Gunner and i, we thought of something  fun the second to the last day we were there.

Football

This was a very fun year to watch my brother play qb on his Jv Football team.  I actually went to more then one game.  I usually just go to like one or two a season, but since i didn't have much going on i went to most!! In other words i don't have a social life, but that's okay i loved going to the games!  Watching the games was fun, but also talking with all of our friends was great! Too many funny stories!  Go PUMAS!!

Next Chapter

Two nights ago my family and i found out that we will be moving to Utah in 9 days!  Why so soon?  My mom has training for a new job that she will be able to work from home!!  For the past 5 years we have tried to move up to Utah but has not worked out.  Its going to be sad to leave 13+ years of friendship, but i know everything happens for a reason.  Our prayers have been answered and our family will be back under the same roof again!  I cant even put in words how excited i am for my family to be all together.  Grandma Judy are you ready for us?!!  I know i can speak for my family when i say we have the best of friends/family and so grateful for the friendship they brought us. Thank you!


Our house still has not sold yet, we could use all the prayers and help that someone will buy it!!
