Ok lets try this again... I just wrote a twenty minute post and lost it... So anyway after work on Wednesday Nov 23rd. Dean and I started out on our Journey to Oregon. As many people know there was a total white out blissard the two days before we left. So a trip that takes 5 hours took us 9 hours. It also didn't help that it was below ZERO so our windshield wiper fluid froze and we had to stop every 30 miles and wipe the window off because of all the dirt the semis would throw on it as they drove by. So when we reached Oregon we were quite happy! ThAnKsGiViNg DaY was great Dean went hunting with the boys while I stayed home and cooked with the women (family tradition) Dinner was great and there was a TON of food! After we ate we hungout as family then went to my Aunts house and visited and play games for a bit before we had to go to bed for the DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING SALES. Dean and I love going! We got up at about 3:30- 4ish and headed out! I saved a ton of money, hit GREAT deals, got ALL of my ChRiStMaS shopping done! After we were done shopping we headed out to WaShInGtOn to see some of Dean's family. First we stopped at his Grandma Roos house and visited her in Wanatchee then we stayed with Dean's Aunt Lisa and she gave us some sweet hot chocolate we took regular hot chocolate and put add ins, in it. I had butter pecan, and cocunut in mine and it was SOOO good! The next day we got up and had swedish pancakes (a family tradition in Dean's family) and then spent the rest of the day with Grandma visiting and reminising great times. See the pictures below!
After visiting with Grandma, we went to the Tri Cities area and visited Dean's aunt Sharon and Uncle Richard and their families. After laughing and having a great time. We headed back to Oregon to stay the night with my parents. The next day we got up and headed back to Rexburg so Dean could go to school and I could go to work.
Dean and I are doing GREAT! Dean has one more week and then he will be in his last semester at BYU-Idaho I am so excited for that because it is a light load so maybe I will see him a little more. I am still loving my job at the Surgical Center and the People I work with! Scentsy is going good. I have a few parties coming up and I am excited about them! SO life continues to be busy and it is great because Dean and I try really hard to focus on the important things in life and make sure that they come first!
Happy Holidays EVERYONE!
