Fun stuff in November!

We've had a fun November! Bailey and I had the opportunity to go to Disney's Princesses on Ice! It was so much fun and Bailey absolutely LOVED it! She keeps asking when we can go again! I really enjoyed the time I had to spend with my sweet and sassy little girl! I hope to do more things like this with Bay! We went with her friend Lauren and her mom, my friend Jenny. Before we went to Princesses on Ice we went to dinner at the Garden Room on top of the Joseph Smith Memorial building. It was so much fun! Below is Bay and me and Lauren and Jenny.
I'm sure you all know New Moon came out this month and my friends and I went to the midnight showing again! It was so fun! I thought the movie was so good and way better than the first! Below my friend Melanie and I are waiting in line to get into the movie theater. It was pretty chilly and her husband was nice enough to bring us a pizza! We were in line by 5:45. Some were in line as early as 9 or 10 am. They showed Twilight first at 9 before New Moon which is why we were there so early!
Below, finally in the movie theater, (L-R) Natasha, Melanie and me! Yes we made shirts! We got free iron on prints! The backs were all different but the fronts were the same - "Team Edward!" After New Moon I came home, finished packing our van, got about an hour of sleep and then Spencer woke me up to drive to AZ for a week of Thanksgiving fun! Below is just part of our Thanksgiving party. This was my table and the family members lucky enough to sit with me! Or maybe they were unfortunate to sit with me, either way this was my table. (My mom, my brother, my dad, and of course Spencer.) Thanksgiving dinner and dessert was so good!
Below, we are off to the park for a marshmallow gun war! Bay and SWBy really liked their cousin Presley's wagon! It was fun to be home and see everyone. My dad, sister, and stepmom came down from CA to spend Thanksgiving with us! So everyone in my family was there.
This is the very first year I've done Black Friday shopping! There were some deals going on that I couldn't resist! So of course I roped by best friends into going with me! Our malls in AZ opened at midnight so we were there at 10:30 waiting to get in. I'm so glad because they let us into the mall at 11:30 and we could line up outside the store we wanted to go in. Thankfully we were there early because the line to the Disney Store was really long and we were among the first in line! I was done shopping for SWB and Bay by 12:15! I saved 50% on the princess castle Bay wanted which I thought was well worth the 12 am shopping time!
Here Jessica, Tangi, and I are in the Children's Place capturing our 12 am shopping spree. Thanks so much for going with me guys, it was so fun!
After leaving the insanity at the mall we grabbed some food at Denny's for old times sake! We were a little slap happy by this point and found quite a few people staring at us!
The Friday after Thanksgiving, Spencer's aunt Jeanine had us all over to her house for dinner and games. It was a lot of fun and I found that we must get some of these little cars that she has. My kids loved them! Above is Bay and her cute cousin Anna! They are such good little friends.
Here SWBy is! He loved this little car! Luckily there were 4 of them because he absolutely did not want to give his up!

The Saturday after Thanksgiving Spencer had the opportunity to go to the ASU game with his brothers & brother-in-law! He had a great time! Thanks BJ and Ev!
One of my friends thought it would be fun this year to make PJ pants together. So last Friday a few of us got together and made PJ pants. I made some for our entire family! Spencer's and mine were way too big and we had to rip out the seems and cut them down a bit! SWBy's I didn't use a pattern for and had to rip out his "seat" seam to give him a little more room in the bum. Bay's were the only pants I didn't have to do over! I was thankful for that! Oh, well! Live and learn! Hopefully next time will go smoother!
