So I kinda failed with keeping up with my November posts... So I'm just going to do a list of more things I am thankful for:

Our house
My husband
My Ward
The gospel
My Heavenly Father
Family
Friends
Our cars
Food
Candy
Hot chocolate
Blankets
Fireplaces

OK now I'm just typing things I see. Anyway, for Thanksgiving, Josh and I went to Denver on Thursday to be with my parents and my sister. We had a great day playing games and of course eating lots of great food.On Friday, we went to see The Van Gogh exhibit at the Art Museum. And then headed to the airport to fly out to Utah.

At the Airport, we had a delicious dinner and then headed to our gate. Our gate was practically in the basement because we were flying to Provo which is a tiny little airport. As we walked up to our gate, I noticed 4 Kids running around. I said "Josh, O MY GOSH THAT'S STEPHANIE NIELSEN AND HER FAMILY! I was totally star struck. So I spent the next hour or so getting up the courage to talk to her. Finally, as we were boarding our flight, for the first time, I was standing next to her and said "I don't want to interrupt, but I read your blog every day and am so inspired by you." She then asked where we were from and why we were great to Utah. She was so genuinely interested in our conversation. She also is gorgeous and her kids are adorable. I felt so honored to have met her and talked to her.

Now about our flight. So we first boarded at 6 and soon after they told us there was a mechanical issue and they were trying to resolve it. About ten minutes later, they said they were still trying to figure out the problem and that we had to deplane. For the next 2 hours they gave updates every fifteen minutes or told us they works have an update in fifteen minutes. At 8, they told us that we had to wait for new plane that would get there at 9. At 9, we boarded our plane. While sitting on the plane, we watched our "broken plane" take off. Grr. Finally we took off and were on our way. We landed and then headed to Bobby and Lindsay 's (brother and sister-in-law) house. The next morning, we got to meet our first nephew, John Casey Heidbrink. We bought him this funny mustache pacifier.

He is such a cutie! We loved spending the next couple of days ooohing and awwwing over him. It's been a great November and now it's DECEMBER...which means CHRISTMAS! HURRAY! :-)
