First Big Snow

I was really looking forward to this weekend! Work was very stressful and I was ready to sleep in and do what ever I wanted! Ryan went to work Saturday morning then called me at 6:40 to see if I wanted to go skiing apparently it had snowed quite a bit! but I didn't have snow pants so we opted not to. I went back to sleep for awhile (it was so nice). When I got up and looked outside it really had snowed a ton during the night and it continued to snow that morning.
These pictures of the snow really do not do justice to how much snow was really out there. Trying to scrape off the car was just joyful. haha and reminded me why I don't really love the snow. It is very pretty when it covers all the trees...but not on your car! I had to clear the car off as quickly as I could because I got a call from Ryan about 11:30 and he told me he was on his way to the hospital because he broke his thumb! I really don't like these kind of things and I know even though it was just his thumb and not life threatening I don't need to freak out! I did well though I just want to know everything is ok. So I made my first trip in the snow in my manual up to the avenues to the LDS hospital ER. Ok Ryan wasn't our or anything when I got there we just had to wait for them to take X-rays and tell us we could go home. Ryan's thumb as you can see just looks cut but when the doctor finally brought the X-rays in you could definately tell it wa broker he called it a "janitor break" because a janitor walking by could see it! And so we have to go to an orthopedic surgeon on monday and he will probably have to have surgery! Luckily workers comp is paying for this!
That was our fun Saturday! We took it easy the rest of the day and saw Dan in Real Life, it was pretty good. Russ and Erica came up and brought us some movies and icecream we sure appreciate that! They are great! Thanks guys! I guess we will let you know what happens.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a busy week. Sunday night Ryan and I made our own Thanksgiving dinner. Neither Ryan nor I have ever cooked a turkey so we thought we would try and it turned out pretty well! Wednesday Ryan's brother and his Wife Greg and Michelle came down from Rexburg and so we had Russ and Erica up for dinner too, there were a lot of people in our little apt. Thrusday of course was Thanksgiving and we went down to my grandparents house. I made lion house rolls at enrichment on tuesday so we brought roll and I made some pumpkin rolls as well. They were a hit! I was glad because I don't bake all that often. The meal was delicious and we spent the rest of the afternoon talking with family and watching football. Friday I guess we did a little shopping but I did not get up early and I didn't find anything I really wanted to buy. That night we saw Silverchair downtown it was fun! Besides all our extra activities Ryan and I both worked! So it was a busy week but very fun! We are so blessed to have such wonderful families and friends we love!
