Gobble Gobble It Was Thanksgiving Time

Ill admit my blogging hasnt gotten behind again...this week cause I was so busy at work that I just didnt have time to blog.

This past weekend was Thanksgiving and my first away from my family ever. I guess its time to get used to splitting family holidays and starting my own family traditions. I was having a hard time wrapping my mind around this one tell its become time to do so and I loved it!

Kyle and I headed up to Boise for Thanksgiving with his family. I was a little nervous to meet his family but know if they were anything like Kyle then I was in for a great weekend.

On Wednesday we headed up after work. after a very long drive we arrived at Kyle's parents place. I was greeted with lots of hugs and warm wishes...I knew I was in for a great weekend and a loving family.

Thursday it was so nice to be able to sleep in and just spend my morning laying around with Kyle. The day was so fun between learning new family traditions...meeting the rest of his family. I loved getting to know his cute nephews and playing with them. It was fun to see how cuddly and playful yet easy going some one year olds can be. I could seriously eat Corbin up and by the end of the weekend Jaydon and I become close buddies. I love it. Yes I love Daxton but it was fun to be with a one year old that wasnt bouncing off the walls. Thanksgiving was so fun playing fun games and just having family time on a smaller scale then Im used to .

Friday turned into quite the Marathon. Up and out the door at 5am and not back tell nearly 2pm for Day of Thanksgiving shopping!! And I loved it. We got loads of good deals and a lot of christmas shopping done. Now I just need Christmas to get here so I can wear my new cloths and boots. And I cant wait to be in my own Kitchen making homemade pasta in my new Kitchen Aid...yummmm. After a really long nap we got up and went out to dinner with Kyle's parents. After dinner we watched what had to be one to the funniest movies ever...Christmas Vacation.

Saturday was a nice day of some bonding with Kyle's family. The siblings all went out to eat and shopping and then we all settled in for a game night!!

I loved meeting and getting to know Kyle's family. I can see how Kyle become the amazing man he is being raised by his amazing and loving parents. I know that I am going to grow and develop a close sister friend relationship with Lauren and Mikayla. I am gaining two cute nephews. I felt so welcomed, comfortable and accepted into his family that I am more and more in love with Kyle and excited to start our family together and have more time with his family.
