A bit of Thanksgiving...

Remember Thanksgiving...try hard. It was like 2 months ago. Well I'd like to share my experience.
So this year was Thanksgiving with the LIECHTY'S. And there are like a billion of them. So every Thanksgiving they rent out a huge house or cabin to fit us all. This year it was @ the Northgate Mansion in Provo.
This place is HUGE! It sleeps 50 {almost enough to fit us all} I don't even think I found all the bathrooms, but there are like 10 of them. Oh & it had 2 playhouses....

This one was the cute little cottage...


And the other was....

HOGWARTS!!!!

I finally got to go. Me=Hermione & Jeff=Harry, just to clear that up.

Jeff defeated the Dragon...it was BRILLIANT! Then if you go on down the hall you meet up King Tut & Cleopatra in the giant theater room.


Adam doing what he does best...

it's why we love him.

Cute little Donna & me.

One of the few times we saw Mike...he's a bit of a workaholic.

He did make an appearance to beat Taylor in pool.
Jeff & I went on an adventure to try to see the whole house, & yes...we did enter.

My very first Gingerbread House...EVER!





Someday...I'll post pictures of Christmas.

Oh my Oh my...

I got to go to COLDPLAY!

They have been one of my favorite bands for the past..hmm...well every since Yellow. Whenever that was. But oh it was fun! We went with Jesse & Jeanette! although our seats were {almost the last row} it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to in my day. & believe me...I've seen my share of shows! They are just great performers. It was a concert & music video all in one. I loved it & would have followed them.
We were like giddy little school girls while we waited for them....well at least I was.



Yellow. {could you not tell?}


Lovers in Japan. One day I will be a lover in Japan. I love this song. It could be my favorite. But I can't pick just one.
It was a fabulous night. One of my patients won a 40 min piano lesson with Chris. I couldn't believe it. She's the luckiest lady ever. So are all those people in the back that got to go to the front. Lucky little bits.

I know...I know....

So I ran into my dear friend Aly on Thursday night {randomly @ the glorious Cheesecake Factory, Aly it was good to see you & yours, he's a fine one he is!} & she shamed me into reuniting with my long lost friend...Blog. Blog & I had some words...it kinds went like this:


Dear Blog,

I'm sorry I've been neglecting you. I know you must be crazy upset with me cause you see me on this, your brother the computer, all the time & wonder why I never come to visit you. Please don't be jealous of him, It's my bad, not his, & I know how much I must have hurt you. I've been starving you of words & pictures. I'm a deadbeat mum & I WILL make it up to you. It's partially your sister, the internet's fault. She has not been cooperating with me this past month & it's hard to get her to upload things. You can take it out on her. I won't tell. She is in one of those "moods" I guess. You really have been the only one who can talk to her. Well I will be writing much more now...so please accept my apology. I do love you much. I'm going to write the longest blog ever!

Love,
Brit

So I went to a Halloween Party. Mike didn't wanna go. So I went with some friends. I was the witch from The Wizard of Oz. {the one with the RED shoes...I don't know her name. I'm not very original.}






It was a party for my friend who is now in Costa Rica working in an Orphanage. She is only like 19. So yeah...Mollie & I were the oldest ones there. It was awesome. Jail bait everywhere.

REMEMBER THSES!! WOW!


I'm the one in the front with the curly hair...in case you didn't go to high school with me.

Oh man these were fun. I can remember everyone in this picture except the 2 guys in the wife beaters & the guy behind them with his face painted. I think they just jumped in our picture? Maybe...2 look familiar. Anyway. That was a fun picture. I looked good. I'm surprised I had dates in High School.

We all went with Mike's family on the Heber Creeper. It was pretty funny. I tend to stay away from totally scary things...like The Grudge. I hate when I can't sleep cause I think something is going to come out of my bed & kill me. But the Heber Creeper was perfect. I think I laughed through the whole thing. But it's for the kiddo's right.











Also since we've last blogged it was my birthday. I'm getting old. By the way what did you get me blog? Fine...I'll let it slide since I've neglected you.

Birthday dinner @ YAPONA { I LOVE SUSHI} I think I could eat it every day...nay, I know I could.





I got some good garb for my birthday. Husbands are good at that...so are brothers. In fact I got a cute little camera. It's tiny. I love it.

My lady friends took me & Sindee {her birthday is in October too} out for dinner. It was divine.



This is a good group of ladies. I love em.





Until next time Blog. Which will be soon....Thanksgiving is coming up. Oh & I got a new car! I shall blog about that next Blog! So many ideas...so little time.

Mike went here for the first time.

( Mt. Timpanogos Temple)
It was pretty awesome to be there with him. He has had a lot of spiritual firsts this year...that was one of them.

Later that week....we did this @ the Salt Lake Temple. And thanks to my beautiful, wonderful, amazing, talented friend & incredible photographer Anna Wheeler  www.annapagephotography.com  we have all these wonderful pictures to remember our wonderful day by! 





She really is FANTASTIC! If you have a wedding, or family pictures or something you should use her! She's so incredibly sweet too!




Sometimes I really like getting my picture taken...sometimes when it's with a professional I get nervous, so I just wish I was better at it. It was fun to take pictures again. & I got to use my dress again! That's always nice...




It was a beautiful day & the weather was perfect! We had all our friends & family with us & we couldn't have been more thankful & grateful! The Salt Lake Temple it GORGEOUS inside & out! Thanks to all our friends & family who couldn't be there who were thinking of us on our special day! & thanks for all our friends & family who were there! We love you all!
