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.
No thank you.
But...these are hilarious!!!





MY MOST USED WORDS ON FACEBOOK



I THOUGHT THAT MY JAZZ OR BYU WORDS
WOULD BE BIGGER...BUT, 
LONG LIVE ALPINE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL!

SOME THINGS ARE SOOOO TRUE!


And then it's followed by . . . "I'll just have water."

TURKEY DAY


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

After dinner, there was
"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?

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!
