Thanksgiving was awesome. We went to Mountain View and got to spend time with all of my family. Nate got to play in the Turkey Bowl this year, he was quite dissapointed he missed out last year. He had fun trash talking and made some pretty good plays. I got to play in a volleyball tournament with Chan, Olivia, and 3 of my cousins. I had fun playing and was quite sore the next day. I guess a day of volleyball will do that to you.
Cameron hurt himself, I know surprise, surprise one of my boys hurt themselves. Anyways, he was climbing on a bar stool and it started to tip over on him. Instead of letting go he held on and actually helped it fall on him. It hit him square on the mouth, nocked his 2 front teeth loose, and broke his top jaw. His teeth are still sensetive but he at least lets us brush them now.
We also had my sister take an updated family photo. She took quite a few of us, but you know how boys are, and mine definately don't like to hold still. Also, I wasn't even thinking about our dark hair and the dark background, but there you have it.
They made a pretty big mess, which they did clean up,
and had a great time doing it.
Christmas was spent here in a snow storm. Nate had to work since he got Thanksgiving off, so this was our first Christmas spent at our own place. We had fun. Nate kept telling me he was going to wake the boys up at 6 and get started with the presents. I told him that they couldn't do anything until I was there and I was not getting out of bed until 8 at the earliest, and if they started without me then mommy and Santa would take all of the presents back. It all worked out though, Nate was tired from staying up and wrapping presents and the boys didn't get up until 8:15.

Payton was so excited about his transformers, and Cameron didn't want to open anything after he saw his basketball hoop.
I got Nate a new set of scriptures, he has been asking since we got married (6 years) and was quite specific in what he wanted.
Nate got me a speaker for my ipod, and also teamed up with my mom and got me a cricut expression. I admit, I started crying because I was so happy. He definately spoiled me this year.
Overall, we had a wonderful holiday season. We are so blessed with a wonderful family and 2 handsome boys. I am thankful to Heavenly Father for all he has given us!
