GIRLS NIGHT OUT

ON SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28,

I HAD MY SECOND FREE GAME

FOR TWO PEOPLE.

MOM DECIDED TO STAY AT HOME WITH CARTER,

AND I TOOK KIM, COURTNEY, AND CAMRY

TO THE JAZZ VS NEW ORLEANS GAME.

CAMRY SAT BY ME THE 1ST HALF . . .

. . . AND COURTNEY, THE SECOND HALF

CAMRY GOT A PINK, SPARKLY JAZZ BALL

COURTNEY GOT A NEW JAZZ SHIRT
AND SWIG

AND THEN, I LEFT COURTNEY HOLDING MY
PHONE WHILE I WENT OUT TO THE BATHROOM.
AND AS A TYPICAL 15 YEAR OLD GIRL,
THIS IS WHAT I FOUND ON MY PHONE
24 HOURS LATER:

IT WAS A GREAT DAY IN UTAH SPORTS!
BYU ROLLED OVER UTAH STATE IN FOOTBALL, 
TO TAKE THE "WAGON WHEEL" BACK.
BYU BASKETBALL WON.
AND, THE UTAH JAZZ WON!

BLACK FRIDAY

Black Friday.

TURKEY DAY

This year, Thanksgiving was held at Ashley's house.

"Cute Cookie Craftiness and Coloring" by Camille.

Mmmmmm . . . Desseret!
(Little candles to celebrate Jon's birthday)

Who wore it better?
Lori's Toffee Chocolate Pecan Pie?
or
Kneader's Pecan Pie?

THE BEST OF THANKSGIVING

OUTBACK

I was invited to go see Mockingjay 2

(which I declined...since I'd never read the books)

and then dinner with Condita & Kiliya,

Annalea, and BreAnn.

(Matt and his wife were at movie, but not restaurant.)

I met up with them at Outback in Orem.

I don't think I'd seen Annalea and BreAnn for 

1-1/2 years, since my retirement open house!

I've seen pictures of them doing activities last

year, but I wasn't invited.

Annalea teaches 3rd grade, and BreAnn teaches

4th grade at Blackridge Elementary.

It's on the road to Cedar Fort, near The Ranches.

It's a brand new school in it's second year,

where Cami is the principal.

It was so great to be with them again!

I hope I get invited again, but not so much time

in between!
