I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving break!! Steve and I went down to Utah for Thanksgiving and it was a lot of fun! A lot of his extended family lives down there and his family from Washington ended up coming down as well. The week of Thanksgiving I only had classes on Monday and then Tuesday my teachers cancelled class and Wednesday was the start of the official break for BYUI. Steve and I didn't leave until Wednesday night because he had work. I just worked the majority of the day on Wednesday and a little on Tuesday.
On the way down to Utah Steve and I stopped and got some Buffalo Wild Wings to go! It's one of our favorite places to eat. He got some WILD, I got some MEDIUM, and we shared a HONEY BARBECUE. I was driving and he was getting the wings out of the bag and I had my first one. It tasted a lot hotter than what i was used to with the Medium but I just thought it was because we haven't had them in a while. My mouth was on fire!!! and I drank a ton of water thinking they changed their medium sauce or something. Turns out Steve purposefully gave me the Wild hot wings to see if I would notice a difference. Haha he got me but after I ate some of my medium my mouth was back to satisfaction and not miserably hot.
We got to Sandy where we were staying with Steve's aunt and uncle around 10 pm and just relaxed. Steve's parents were going to get there that night but were running behind and stayed in Boise.
Thanksgiving Day: We slept in a little bit and got ready for the big meal! Steve's family got to the Klingler's around noon along with Grandma Sherrie along with a lot of other family. We ended up having around 30 people at lunch! After 3 turkeys and lots of food to arrive we were ready for our Thanksgiving meal and it was soo good!! Steve Klingler (Steve's uncle and the family we were staying with) did 3 different turkeys for the meal. He put them in brine overnight and the next day did each of them a little bit different. The first one he cooked in the oven and the other 2 in his infrared cooker. He also added a few different things to each one: one was injected with garlic and I don't remember the other 2. They were all so good. One of my favorite parts of the Thanksgiving meal is the stuffing and it was delicious! I'm sure all of you probably ate too much as did I but it only comes once a year! After the meal we went to go see Steve's Grandpa and Grandma Klingler, we visited with them and cousins and it was a lot of fun! Thanksgiving night everyone went to go see a movie at the theaters. It was a Thanksgiving tradition for most of the family. Mostly everyone went and saw Rise of the Guardians but Steve, Clayton, and I went to go see Breaking Dawn Part 2 since we haven't seen it yet. Let me just say I definitely recommend it and you should all see it. At around 10pm we left to go to Park City with all of the girls to go Black Friday shopping. We went to the Tanger outlets and they opened at 10. We went shopping for about 3 hours and I ended up getting a really cute shirt that was $37 off with all the discounts (ended up only being $15).
Here are some pictures from Thanksgiving Day! I really didn't take many....I love the pictures of me and little Addison while she was sleeping.

Friday: We woke up had a delicious breakfast which consisted of eggs, hashbrowns, and sausage and then I went out shopping with Brenda and Lonnie my in-laws. We stopped at Kohls which was one of the stores I wanted to go to and Brenda and I waited in line 1 hour and 15 min to check out. It was crazy! I ended up getting all of Steve's presents for Christmas though, some yoga pants, a jacket, and our secret siblings gifts as well! I feel like that trip was pretty successful and well worth it. We ended up all going to Cafe Rio for dinner which was very good! After dinner we headed to SLC to go to Temple Square and see all the Christmas lights up! It was so much fun! After we went to Gateway and got some apple cider/hot cocoa and sat by the fire. I love Christmas time especially all of the lights, music, and Christmas Spirit!

Here is a video of Bryson running through the water at Gateway!
