Thanksgiving Week-end 2011

Thanksgiving this year was awesome but yet different this year!!

We woke up at 7am on Thanksgiving Day, cause the Dish guy came to install our Dish at 

our new home. **Keep in mind.. the monday of the week of thanksgiving we got the keys to our house.. So beginning Monday after work.. we were moving!

EVERY night we were moving untill 1am.. then getting up at 5:45-6am

for both of us to go to work.. come home.. move some more.. clean.. organize..

then go to bed at 1am and do it all over again!! ALLLL WEEK! ha**

So we were exhausted!!

The Holidays didn't keep us away from moving though..

As soon as the Dish guy left.. We were back at our apartment moving! haha

No relaxing this holiday.

So in all this chaos.. Kris and i was in charge of

bringing Deviled Eggs to my families Thanksgiving.

We decided to Go ALL out! haha

8 dozen!!!!!!!! 

which means 192 halves=deviled eggs!

haha

 Kris prepping the eggs ha

 Sheena's massive rolls

Momma cookin-

 My dad cutting the Turkey!

 Just a few goodies

So by this point it is Thursday, so we have "owned" our house for 4 days and we

still have NO fridge.

Kris's "Lets-get-this-done" attitude kicked in and got on Craigslist to find us a fridge!

I know what your thinking.. Crazyy people... on THANKSGIVING!

but sometimes you gotta do what ya gotta do...

So we finally found someone that was asking a

decent price.. so we drove 1 hour and 15 minutes for this fridge.. and

we pull up.... and the ENTIRE street is

jaming out to mexican music!

haha
Here is the Video of the awesome mexican music! So Festive

Good news.. the Fridge works awesome!

haha

Friday night.. Our wonderful Friends Max and Allie came over to visit and

see our new house!!

I LoVe hanging out with those 2.. they are so much fun..

and im pretty sure i cry laughing so hard when ever im with them!

We played some cards.. hung out.. and ended up playing some fun video games!

These picture show what we do to the "T"! LAUGH!

Saturday morning Kris went and got his dad's trailer..then loaded up the Sammy and Quad.. and

we went out to Box Canyon with my family for a little

fun in the sun!

It was such a good break from mOvInG!!
