Well so much for blogging every week during November... I just have one question, where did December come from? It came out of no where!
Here's what's going on in our life now...
* Greg is almost done with his first semester of grad school!
* I am almost done with another semester of undergrad (some day I'll apply to nursing school...)
For Thanksgiving we headed down to Price to hang out with the Palmer Clan. It was so fun to have just about everyone there (the Pennsylvania Palmers will be here in June sometime). We enjoyed a whole bunch of turkey and alotta laughs! Thursday night we went with Lorin and Christi to scope out the black friday deals at Wal*Mart. We ended up staying, preparing to get some good deals for them (toys that we really don't need... but they wanted for their kids!) The sale started at midnight with the sale items wrapped in plastic and people standing around ready to pounce. At about 1155pm some random customer shouted "GO" and everyone started tearing at the plastic filling their carts. It was crazy! But so much fun.
On Friday, Greg and I headed home to meet up with my mom's side of the family. My cousin Dave and his cute lil wife and baby boy were in town from Wyoming. We had dinner and played games. It was so fun to just hang out and catch up.
Let's just hope we survive the next 2 weeks :) then we'll have 2 free weeks... well free from class!
Until next time (and something else interesting happens...)

Being grateful during the holidays...
I love the idea of posting or blogging everyday about things that I am grateful for. Unfortunately, that's not going to happen for us! Not that we don't have a lot to be grateful for, but I'm not going to remember to do it everyday :) So... I am going to do a weekly grateful for list!
This week I am grateful for family and a reliable car! Right now we are in Cedar City for a baby blessing. Greg's younger brother is blessing his little baby tomorrow and all but the Pennsylvania Palmers were able to make it. We made it safely :) thank goodness because I get paranoid about our car and every little sound it makes. Being poor college students that have had to fork out a lot of money towards car repairs, I'm entitled to worry.
This is my first trip that I remember to Cedar City (I guess we drove through when I was 5...but I don't remember it!). We got here last night when it was dark so I only could see the lights of the town. We when walked outside this morning I turned to Greg and exclaimed "Whoa! There's a mountain!" He just laughed and said, "Yes dear. It's always been there!"
I love our families! Even though we drive each other nuts sometimes, I'm so grateful families are forever!
Last grateful thing for the week... Pepperidge Farm's Goldfish! They are my saving grace somedays :) As long as they are not the whole grain ones (apparently I am allergic to the whole grain ones, but not any of the others... Go figure!)
