Back to Normalcy

Its nice to have things back to normal... Ryan called me a Scrooge for taking the tree down yesterday, but can you blame me? Its nice to come into the new year without the hint that we are still celebrating Christmas. -People seem to move on from my favorite holiday(Thanksgiving) the day after its over without any problem, so why cant I do the same? Either way, its nice to be back in the swing of things... The kids are back to their normal selves.

Christmas, The Aftermath...

Well, Santa came to our house, and our children were up at 4 a.m. to open presents, so needless to say, we are a bit tired. We have had a very nice Christmas, and we were very blessed this year. Here are a few photos of the "controlled Chaos" between yesterday (Christmas Eve) and this morning. Happy Holidays!

December Photos!

December always goes by so fast, -birthdays (mine), parties, gatherings, Christmas cards, caroling- It seems to go faster and faster each year! So here are a few photos that we have taken over the last few days...
Merry Christmas

First Real Snow of 2007

Thanksgiving 2007

Thanksgiving was a success- the Turkey turned out beautifully. The white meat was just as moist as the dark, I don't think I will ever go back to cooking a Turkey ever again without Brining it. The gravy was a bit salty, but we just added a little water, and voila!

How to Deep Fry your Turkey

Im not real crazy about Alton Brown and his crazy antics, but I have always been intrigued about how to properly deep fry a turkey. So I thought I would share this episode of his while I take up some time to round up a few new photos of the family! Happy Thanksgiving!

Our Vacation to Logan... sort of...

We went up to Logan Utah and stayed overnight so I could film a wedding in Bear Lake. The trip is about 4 hours up to Bear Lake from Orem, so we thought it would be fun to stay overnight! Here is a small slideshow of our trip!

NEW NIKE CONTACTS

I acquired some Nike Contacts today- and I thought I would try them out. To make a long story short, there is really no need for sun glasses anymore- these things are awesome!!!
