Snowboarding with Liz in Tahoe

If I could snowboard everyday and still be able to afford to live I would! Liz did awesome for it being only her second time. She likes to express her domination of the snowboard with actions.

We didn't take any pictures on the mountain but had a fun snow ball fight when we got home. We've got some mad skills!

I like to peg Liz with snowballs.

But she quickly retaliates.

Snowball fights are the best especially when you get to cover your friend in snow.

A weekend full of Burgundy and Driving.


Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I love having a weekend of just relaxing and being with family and friends. Well this Thanksgiving I got to see lots of family, but didn't do much relaxing. My cousin Christina got married the Saturday after Turkey day. On Friday a small group of us drove from Susanville to Oakland, totaling a little over 5 hours one way. After being crammed in the van we were happy to stretch our legs. My aunt Judy didn't want my cousins and I walking around outside because she was scared we would get kidnapped. Lucky us, we drove 5 hours to Oakland to sit in a hotel room, but it was still fun. :) On Saturday Christina and Tim were sealed they looked so HAPPY!!

We got to see them come out of the temple, and grandma's like to take pictures when the cousins aren't looking.

Then lucky us, we got to drive the 5 hours back to Susanville for the reception. Becky and I did not get to change out of ours skirts because my grandma had our bags for the drive. Let's just say it is not easy to get comfortable in the Space Ship in a skirt.
With only 20 minutes to get ready again, we safety pinned my HUGE dress on so it wouldn't fall off. They we got to take more pictures again.

Don't you just love when grandparents who have been married three times talk to you about getting hitched.

Guess that is what happens when you are the oldest cousin there and still not married.
