Gobble til ya wobble....

Thanksgiving is one day of the year that you can EAT all day long, and feel ok about it! I have always loved Thanksgiving. To me it isn't all about the food, but it is the time that I get to spend with my family. From this day til the end of the year we will find ourselves playing games on a nightly basis, watching movies, and of course eating yummy food. I have a lot to be thankful for. Including my amazing family and friends. My list can go on and on. Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!
I forgot to mention one of my favorite events that is associated with Thanksgiving, BLACK FRIDAY, what a crazy day. I look forward to this shopping event all year!

Visiting our Nation's Capital!







I know it has taken me forever to get post pictures from my trip, but I am finally getting around to it! I was lucky enough to visit Washington D.C. for a third time. I traveled with UVU Student Government. I was a little nervous at first, but ended up having such a great time. I got to meet a lot of great people, and see some great sites. This trip to D.C. was very different than my previous two. This time I was able to see and visit wherever I wanted to. One thing that was a must see was Arlington Cemetery, what an amazing place. It was so beautiful with the fall colors. I also wanted to visit some of the Smithsonian exhibits. I also saw some new attractions like the electronic super highway at one of the art museums. We also spent some time at the capitol meeting with senators and representatives. It was way cool to do this. (I kinda felt important). My time in D.C. went by so quickly. I really love the city life, but it was nice to come home.
