I'm a little behind(as usual) So i'll just summarize the rest of our 2009! :) (I don't have any pics at the moment, but i'll try to put some on asap! Isn't that all people look at? No one actually reads all this, right?? haha)
Ok.. lets see... NEW MOON! Was awesome! The girls talked me into going to the midnight show, AND I actually stayed awake the whole time!! Amazing! We had a great time-went to playoffs first, danced on the bar(jk of course! ;)) All 10 of us got to sit together in the theatre, the movie was great! Jacob took his shirt off alot- its was a great night! Tons of fun!!
Next. Thanksgiving! Chase and Melissa got to come out for a couple weeks! Had a great time with them! I had to take Melissa to see New Moon. :) So the boys went on a MTB ride. We did Thanksgiving with the Strattons. The food is always GREAT! We had lots of fun! Played a couple games(thanks Em!)
Next. Ian's birthday! I've always done a big party for him...had everyone over for dinner, cake, everything. And he always says.. we don't need to have a party or do anything for my birthday. So this year I was like fine! If he doesn't care, I'm not going to stress about it! And it was on a monday...Lame! Mondays are my late nights, so we just went to dinner(China buffet -Ians favorite!) And came home. Then his fam came up and I didn't have a cake or anything- I felt bad! They probably think I'm a dirty husband birthday hater! (but i'm not)
Next. CHRISTMAS! I LOVE Christmas!! This year Wendy and Brandon came down(and the kids) And Chase and Melissa got to come out again! So It was tons of fun to have everyone there.
We didn't do a whole lot, just hung out, ate alot, enjoyed everyones company! Christmas is always kinda crazy, especially with both of our families so close. We're always runnin back and forth! But Fun!!
Next. We went up to the Butlers a couple days after Christmas. Went to see the lights at temple square, did some shoppin, ate some more, had cake for my birthday! I tried to cancel my birthday, but my sis told me I still get older whether I celebrate it or not! We actually had to drive home on my birthday because I had to work the next day and Ian had a camp out. It snowed the whole way!! And the roads were bad! So it was a long day of driving!! But we made it home safely :)
Next. New years! We had(got) to go to the stake youth dance! It was actually pretty fun! I made it to midnight!! And we danced! I couldn't show off any of my moves though :( I didn't want to get kicked out! ;D
What else... Oh! Ross and Mason got engaged!(not to eachother) So i'm looking forward to having some sis-in-laws on the Stratton side! We're super excited for them :)
Ian, Chase and Brodey hiked Moapa peak! The girls sat this one out- But the boys conquered!
I'm sure I'm forgetting lots of things! But this is turning into an extremely long post! Hope everyone had great holidays and is having a fabulous 2010!!
Love you all!
