Thanksgiving we went to my parents house in Spring City. We had the best time, cause everyone from my family was able to make it. Black Friday was just the start to a busy busy month ahead. I believe it was an omen of what our next couple of months were going to be like. I had decided in July that this year I did not want to wait until the last minute to get Christmas taken care of, I wanted to be able to enjoy the time with my family. We had most of Christmas taken care of but for a few things that we thought we would pick up at the Day after Thanksgiving Sales. That was a joke! We nearly got trampled to death, you really see what people are really like in situations like this. I escaped to the Men's Department and hid while Prince Charming went off to get a few things, like the MP3 player and some videos. The Nintendo DS was not an option unless you wanted to die trying to get one. My brother we soon found out was being pushed around over a Kitchen Aide at another store, and my sister had the best time at the store she went to in Payson, which was good cause she had taken kids with her. I don't think that we will be going again next year.
Next we had my little brothers wedding on the 12th and I was so excited for him, but sad also cause that means I am getting old. His wife is an awesome gal and I am glad he finally asked her.
That next week I started working for Aspen Mills Bread as a sampler. I forgot what it was like to be on your feet constantly, I gained an appreciation for all that Prince Charming does for us though. I was so tired after working and my feet hurt terribly, that all we did mostly was stay home and veg. It helped us out alot cause Prince Charming's work shutdown for Christmas until the 4th of January.
Christmas Eve we spent with Prince Charming's family, his grandma always has a Christmas Party, then we went back to his parents and opened presents. Christmas was fun, we spent time down at my parents playing games with Uncle JR and Aunt SR, and then we came home and spent some time relaxing.
New Years we had a little get together here at home, with some of Nolan's family, his brother Uncle P came, Aunt J (Uncle S' fiancee) and her daughter C, and B and (Uncle S' 2 Boys) Uncle S was here via the webcam. It was a blast playing RockBand and just talking and spending time together. We took the boys sledding at a place close by, Belle went and slept over at Aunt J's and C's apartment.Prince C was down with the flu that next week, followed by Little Prince a day later, then Erica came in third. I was just glad that I didn't get it like I usually do when I have had to take care of sick kids. Little Prince had also banged his head and when we took him into the Dr. found out he had a slight concussion. We watched him closely, but he has a tough head. Prince Charming's work has been cutting back alot. So I have started to put applications in trying to find work. We have been spending time filling out apps and cutting corners as we can. Last Sunday we had gone to church, when we came home Prince C (who had not gone cause he was still not feeling the best) said that Uncle S had called and said he was coming home, something had happened. Well my first thought was that one of the boys got hurt or worse. That's how my head works, so I called Aunt J, we find out that the house he is renting to people, while he is in Okinawa, that the garage had been wrecked. But Aunt J had been by the garage she said, and she didn't think it was that bad. Prince Charming and I took a ride. As we were walking up the the front door, we noticed a lot of light could be seen out the back of the garage. She had looked at the front, not the back. It was bad. So then Sunday night, I started feeling clammy and got the chills, and so long story short the dreaded flu bug that I had thought had passed my by finally caught up with me.
We hope you have enjoyed Our Little Family Moments
Love
Our Little Family
