Merry Christmas...

Love the three of us!

Vegas Vacation

Every year we head down to Vegas with a bunch of friends for the NFR. It is really one of my favorite things that we do! Not only do I love the rodeo, I love the people we go down with. We rent out two condos and share between everyone! This year not everyone was able to come down but it was still, as always, a good time! This year seemed like we were going, going, going all the time!

Cowboy Christmas

One thing we always do is head over to Cowboy Christmas. It is a lot of fun to walk around and look at all the million of things they have there. Being there makes me want to slap on some wranglers and boots!

Kars and I with Santa At Cowboy Christmas

The NFR

The National Finals Rodeo! You will never see so many cowboys in your life! There is something about being there that makes it so much fun. We usually sit pretty close to the top but that doesn't matter to us!

Our friends Jimmy, Rylee, Susan, and JJ

One good looking Cowboy!

Let's Make A Deal

While were were in Vegas, we decided to go to the filming of Let's Make a Deal. It was a lllooonnnggg process of waiting in lines, signing papers, and going through interviews but it was worth it! We had so much fun! We didn't get picked to make any big deals but two of the couples with us won a hundred dollars! We had such awesome seats. Kars and I sat on the isle on the second row. Whenever Wayne picked a contestant he brought them down right behind us! I will let you all know when the show airs so you can see our lovely mugs on television!

Cirque Du Solei

While we were there, we got tickets to go see a Cirque Du Solei show and the Treasure Island. If any of you get the chance to go see one of these shows I highly recommend it! It was awesome. They do some seriously crazy things. It is almost unbelievable some of the stuff that they can do.

Snow Storm

We drove home in one of the biggest snow storms of the year so far! It was crazy how much snow we came home to. We are thankful that JJ is such a professional driver and got us home safely! I'll admit there were a few times I got nervous but I am glad we made it home in one piece!

JJ reassuring us that he is a professional.

Kars and I not quite sure if we believed him or not!

As soon as we got home, Kars had to go outside and deal with this mess!

The Holy War

We somehow get lucky every year and score tickets to the BIG game! I don't know what it is about this game but it brings out the crazy in people! We sat right next to the Utah fans and lets just say we were entertained. It was a great game and happily the best team won!!!

Uncle Mike and Boo. Maybe next year they will come wearing the right colors!

GO BYU!!!

Happy Turkey Day!!!

This year we had a very good Thanksgiving! I am so thankful that we live close enough that we get to be with both of our families for the holidays. This year we started off at Grandma Red's in Mona with the Morgan family! The food was delicious as was the company. My favorite meal item this year was the stuffing and mashed potatoes. Than we headed up north to my Grandpa Parduhns. We didn't eat there because we were already stuffed but the food did look tasty! We than went up to my mom's for some famous banana cream pie! Oh my my it is my favorite. I would rather skip the meal and go straight for the pie.

The things I am thankful for this year...

* Having a testimony in Christ

* An amazing, super hott, hardworking husband

* Family- we truly have the most amazing families!

* Sisters

* Great jobs

* Amazing Friends

* The LOVE shack

* Bubble Baths

* Good books

* Two cars that run

* Patience

* Good health

* Happiness

My list could go on and on.

Of course my most favorite part of Thanksgiving (besides the banana cream pie!) is Black Friday! We were up at three and in line at Target to get some killer deals! I must say though that my sister Jami wins the trooper award because she was in line all night long while we were in our nice warm beds trying to get a few hours of sleep! Despite getting hit with the water balloon and freezing your tale off, it was well worth it right Jami! We even got my dad, my brother Zach, and Karson to go again this year! I read it best when a women compared this day to a man's hunt. We scope out the best deals! We fight (literally) to get them! Until next year!

Parduhn Family Pictures

When we went down to St. George for my mom's 5oth brithday, we had family pictures taken! It is amazing to see how big our family has grown over the last few years! I honestly love my family more than anything. They are seriously the greatest people in this world!

The whole crew

The originals!
The cutest grandkids in the world!

The Jazz Game

We scored some awesome tickets to the Jazz game on Monday night. Even though the Jazz lost, it was fun to go up! We went with Devin and Nat, JJ and Susan. I didn't take many pictures cause im a dud and only took a few! Oh well maybe next time right!

This Is Halloween!!!

I love this time of the year! There is just something about Halloween that kicks off the holidays! I also like it because for one day you get to dress up and be whoever you want to be! Karson and I have been trying to plan what we were going to be since last year. Once again we left it at last minute and got lucky to come across a Wilma and Fred Flinstone costume! Oh well, it turned out great! We started the day off at a Morgan family party! We ate delicious cheese soup in a bread bowl and carved pumpkins! Than we finished of the night with a party at our house. It was regularly supposed to be at the Memmott household but changed last minute when there new house flooded. It turned out great. We ate chili, lost of treats, talked, and watched a scary movie! It was really fun to get together with everyone.

Hope you all had a Happy Halloween!!!
