Anyway, these past few weeks have actually been pretty busy for us. We hardly ever do anything other than go to work, eat and sleep so we were really excited to have stuff to do. This year we spent Thanksgiving with my family. Every year my family goes up to my grandparents house for dinner on Thanksgiving and I love it. My grandmother is an amazing cook especially around the holidays. My favorite part of the whole meal is the dessert. Yes, I know that is not a good thing, but I absolutely love pumpkin pie and it was yummy. My grandma also makes her special fudge for thanksgiving which is to die for. So all in all Thanksgiving was great, we got to eat really good food and spent a lot of time with my family.
After Thanksgiving we got to relax for the weekend, well Sol did, I had to go back to work on Friday. Then we had another very eventful week. On Monday we went to a concert thing for my brother, Danny. Danny is a senior this year (which is so weird) and he is in a singing group called Madrigals ( I was in this group when I was a senior and it was the greatest). The Madrigals put together a Christmas program every year, which they perform all through December at various places. There first performance is always for their families so that is why we were there. It was so much fun to see him singing and dancing around. He has always been a shy kid so it was great to see him being out there. I'm not sure if Sol enjoyed it, but I did!!
Danny is the one with the snowflake on his shirt.
At the end of the week we went to my works Christmas party at Buca di Beppo. It is an italian restaurtant that serves all the food family style. So each entree feeds at least two people or up to six if you get a large. It was so much fun tasting all the different dishes and just to be able to talk to my coworkers outside of work. I am horrible at taking my camera with me so I don't have any pictures. We also went to my parents ward party on Saturday which was so fun for me. I love going back to the home ward and seeing all the wonderful people that I grew up with. Sol had fun this weekend too because he got to have two free meals and if there is free food somewhere, Sol is sure to want to go.
These past few weeks were really fun and busy and even though we are now back to our same old same old stuff, it is kind of nice not to have to worry about anything for a little bit.
