Family Update for November

Hello everyone!!

I have been so swamped to update my family blog for over a month and a half. If I can remember every thing exciting that happened in November it will be a miracle. Here goes, the first part of the month was not too exciting because Paige and I were patiently waiting for Monte to be out on the holiday break. Our task was to make sure that everything was in order for us to go to Boise for Thanks Giving. That was easy, we were packed a week ahead of schedule, so again all we had to do was to wait. During the mean time, we watched my little brother, Chris play in his two games for his senior year in football. That was pretty cool to see. He was the staring QB and played awesome. My parents even got to go out on the football field to be recognized along with him. (Picture Posted) Also since his team was placed 2nd in state behind Scio, they got to go to the play offs. The ended up losing to Kennedy 7-0. Bummer deal. Anyway after that game, it was off to Boise for Thanks giving and a long week. We got into Boise on Sunday night and visited with some of our good friends the Hardin's and the Jepson's. It was great to see them again!! Although, we did end up missing out on the yearly tradition of Gingerbread house making. :( With the beginning of the week over, we spent Thanksgiving with Monte's Dad and Step Mom and the whole family which consisted of: Doug/Dusti/Emelia, Darla/Jeff, Danielle, Leah/Allysa, Andy/Debbie, Sam and Uncle Ron. There was tons of food and it was good to get caught up with the fam. Before we left for home, we did stop by and see our old bishop from the Boise Married student ward. It was great to get caught back up with him and his family. We were excited to see them again. With that, our week was over and we headed back home on Saturday.
Once back at home, we had a quite night on sunday with Monte, Paige and I until it was time to give Monte a haircut. Right in the middle of Monte's hair cut, Paige slipped off of the toliet and hit her lip on the tank and split it wide open. Needless to say, we ended up in the ER until after midnight. She had to get 4 stiches. What an event!!
This was the whole month of November, not too exciting until the very end!
