happy thanksgiving!

If you've never checked out the website Cake Wrecks, you really need to visit. That is where I pulled this beauty of a Thanksgiving cake picture. I think it is fabulous!!

Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving this year. There are so many things that I have to be thankful for this year...we are really blessed in our lives. What a blessing it is to have the Gospel in our lives! To know that Andy and I will be sealed together forever, and that we will be with all of our family forever. I am truly grateful for that among many, many, many other things!

new moon.

I know everyone is probably sick of hearing about this movie, but I have to write about it. I went and saw it with some of my family yesterday and I LOVED it! This is a little embarrassing, but I am super obsessed with the Twilight series. The books are phenomenal, Stephenie Meyer is amazing. I love the story line and the characters.

I have to admit, New Moon was my least favorite book out of the four because Edward disappears! (I am definitely an Edward fan, sorry to all those Jacob fans out there) However, now that I know that he does come back and that he and Bella are just as madly in love when he returns as they were before he left I can enjoy New Moon much more. I thought the movie was done well. The acting and the special effects definitely improved since the movie Twilight, although I did love that movie as well.

Here is a picture of the whole gang that went and saw the movie yesterday. It was a blast! From left to right we have Veronica Willden, Jamie Moss, Jessica Cannon, Clara Cannon, Brittany Lovell, Brenda Lovell, Jane Haynie, and me. It was a great crowd in the theater with us. When Edward first appeared everyone started cheering and whistling, well mostly the girls were to be honest. Then, when Jacob first came on a guy in the front started cheering really loud as a joke! It was hilarious! We had a great time, thanks to Mom for buying us all lunch and making it such a fun day! I can't wait for the next movie to come out, I might have to read the books again before it is released!

hillary jane haynie.

Our sister Janie celebrated her birthday on Friday, happy birthday Janie! You are such a sweetheart, always trying to think of ways to help others. You give us the yummiest treats, and are so willing to share what you have with others. We love you!

We went out to dinner on Tuhrsday night with Joe, Denise, and Emma Haynie to celebrate Janie's birthday. It was great! The videos' below are of cute little Emma singing Primary Happy Birthday songs to Janie. It was really dark in the restaurant so you can't see Emma's face, bummer! But they are so cute I had to post them anyway. Enjoy!

wow.

Okay I have to post this picture of some of Andy's friends from a surprise birthday party we went to last night. Andy has a group of friends from high school that have stayed really close after graduating, and they are pretty hilarious. This picure only has a few of the boys. They decided for some odd reason that for this surprise party they all needed to dress up and wear...moustaches. Way random, but as you can see it was out of control funny!

gorgeous ladies.

My parents were out of town the weekend my sisters Ashley and Brittany had their Homecoming dance, so I got to go help them get ready for the Dance!! They looked SO fabulous, I can't believe how old they are getting! They are big seniors this year, ruling the school. I love them both so much, and I am so proud of them!!

utah volleyball.

It has been really wierd to go watch the volleyball games this season at the U. They are having a great season, I am so proud! They beat BYU this year, which is always good. :) It will be fun to see how far they go this year. Go Utes!!

What a stud. This is my nephew HT, or "Tizzle" as we now call him. He is so darn cute, and such a poser for pictures!!

hang gliding central.

Joe and Denise Haynie moved down to Draper this summer to a great house that is the perfect size for them. The only downside is that they are further away than before! But they have promised to let us come use their hot tub and sauna...that will be SO nice this winter!! One night after Sunday dinner they took us up to a park by their house that is famous for hang gliders. There were hundreds of people there, it was so cool to watch! Emma was hilarious, as usual. As soon as I pulled my camera out she was posing left and right. "Take my picture NOW," and then, "take my picture again!" Here are some of the silliest. She is a doll!
