Thanksgiving

Ah, once again, long time no post! :)

My new job is great! I just started at the Office of General Counsel at the University of Wyoming last week. I've been learning a lot about the legal process and my coworkers are all really fun and good at teaching me all sorts of things. In fact, I'm not really sure I can talk much about it! Lawyer-client privileges and all. :)

here's the building I work in, Old Main.

For Thanksgiving Johnny and I drove down to Pueblo, CO to see Meghan and Nick and stay with Nick's family! OH gosh it was SO fun! We had a blast. We stayed Wednesday night, then Thanksgiving and Friday. Saturday we met up with Aunt Sherry and Connor for lunch! I have a few pictures from our Thanksgiving adventure. We decorated Nick's family's Christmas tree, too, which really reminded me of decorating our tree, with all sorts of 25+ year old ornaments, elementary school projects, etc. :) We played lots of Wii, watched lots of Project Runway, knit a lot, and ate a lot! And shopped a lot! haha. :) It was definitely a fun time, Nick's family is GREAT! And they even invited us back! :P

On the way there, about in Loveland, CO, literally THOUSANDS of birds flew across the sky. It was like a never ending stream of birds!

my friend Lauren and one of her dogs, Tess. Lauren and her fiance Matt watched kitty while we were gone, so we bought them little matching sweaters for their doggies to say thanks. Cute huh?!?

Today I went shopping for Christmas ornaments and while we were planning on doing a multi-colored tree, I found all these great green and gold ornaments at the dollar store, so I decided to go with a new theme. I ended up finding a few finishing touches at WalMart and Kmart, but almost all of the ornaments are from the dollar store. I'm so proud, haha. :) I think it looks *really* great!
