Holidays so far..

I know it's been awhile since I posted last so I will just give a short update of what we have done so far...

We had a Halloween party at Chad's house with their family and mom and dad and Grams and Danny. The girls had a lot of fun. We went to pumpkinland at Vineyard Garden and the kids had a blast running around the maze and seeing the animals. Then we went back to Chad's house and hung out and played bingo. It was a lot of fun. Then for Halloween my mom and dad came up so we got the girls all ready. Sayge was a Vampire Queen and Alexye was a witch and Angelyse was also a witch and Breklyn was a pumpkin. We went down town and trick or treated then we went to a stake trunk or treat then to a bunch of houses. We ended up at Brenden and Kelsi's at the end of the night. Halloween was great!

For Thanksgiving we were able to make it down to Arizona and it was so much fun! One of the first days we got there mom and Melia and I went to an afternoon showing of Breaking Dawn.... can I just say it was AWESOME!!!! After that Sayge and Alexye went to play at Tia Meli's house and Matias, Paul, and I took Breklyn and Angelyse to get their ears pierced! Yes there were some tears but they didn't last too long. Then we went to Melia's house and hung out. That night Matias and I went on a double date with Paul and Eddie. We went to a buffet at Casino Arizona....the food was to die for...especially  the desserts that we lined the table with. We had a blast. The whole week was great. The girls went swimming at Pam's twice and we got to hang out and have dinner with them. We loved it. On Thanksgiving I got to see my Uncle Greg, Aunt Leslie, Aunt Kristy, and Uncle Juan and my cousins that I have not seen in years. It was so nice to be able to catch up with all of them. Then we had Thanksgiving dinner and hung out with family and planned black friday...or basically black thursday since it started at 9pm. We went shopping with Pam and Meli. It was crazy fun! Then we all recovered on friday. Saturday we went to the zoo with Meli, Jason, Amanda, and dad. It was so hot. I guess we were so used to the cold weather. We love the Phoenix zoo. Then it was off to take family pictures! Pam is an amazing photographer. I love how our pictures turned out. We also went to the Mesa Temple to see the lights. Its been a couple years since we have gone. It was just as good as i remember. We had a really good time down there. I didn't want to leave. Thanks everyone for the great Halloween and Thanksgiving!!
