I am just a lazy bones. I've been so busy with cooking Thanksgiving dinner and buying Chirstmas presents and watching TV and sleeping lately that I've really neglected my blog. Sorry everyone. I don't even have any new pictures (we forgot to take a picture of the Thanksgiving table - it was really pretty though.)
We had Joseph and Amanda and Emily over for Thanksgiving along with some trainees from the base. They have this thing called Operation Home Cooking where families in the area have airmen over for holiday meals because they aren't allowed to go home during boot camp. The two guys we got were nice - kind of like missionaries - but we found out later that they are both getting kicked out of the Air Force in the next week or two because of misrepresentations on the medical forms they submitted with their applications. One guy had previously dislocated his shoulder (like Jared) but didn't tell them (not like Jared). The other guy had some knee or heart problem that he didn't tell them about. Anyway, we had fun playing Wii and watching movies and playing games and eating turkery. I cooked a 22 lb turkey and we still have a bunch left - yum!
Today we went to the mall to renew Jared's cell phone plan and to see Santa. Tyler was really excited and spent a long time telling Santa about all the things he wanted. Derek was too scared and wanted to stay in the stroller. I did take a picture but I'll have to post it later. P.S. Jared didn't get to renew his plan or get a new phone. Apparently the deals that Verizon offers on their website are not the same deals that they offer in their stores. The lady actually told us that they "couldn't compete with that low of price." So....Verizon is competing with itself? Weird. Jared just ordered the phone online.
BIG NEWS!!!!!
Kevin is engaged! Kevin and his new fiance, Karen, are officially engaged as of today. The are getting married on May 7th (I think). I have some pictures of them somewhere but I will have to post them later too.
Well, I am having too many contractions to make sitting in this chair bearable (like one every 15-20 min, and I'm not even due for 5 weeks! Argh!) so I guess I'm done. We plan to go to Kevins wedding in May so hopefully we will see lots of you when we are there in Utah.

Awesome! Once I found a car seat online at Walmart, went to the store and found it to be $30 more. They WOULD NOT and COULD NOT match their own online price! Cory was embarrassed cause I threw a stink.
Wow.. I remember that I had something to say, but then I saw a sink fly past my face. It's only just now I saw that said, "Stink". :)
Oh yeah. So, our mall doesn't actually have a T-mobile store, but instead, about a billion "authorized T-mobile dealers" which get their own deals, independent of the official store. I wonder if it was one of those.
Thanks for having us over for Thanksgiving. It was really fun and driving wasn't too bad since we stayed overnight and strategically drove right when Emily normally naps. I think those airmen appreciated it too. I'm not sure if they liked hanging with the Mormons or the sleep or the internet or the food the most though.
It wasn't an "authorized dealer." It was the actual Verizon Wireless corporate store.
