Thanksgiving weekend with the Family

Okay so it's been a long time since i've posted anything so i thought i'd better get my butt in gear. First of all Happy Holidays to everyone it's officially time to gain weight and spend lots of money :) We all had a great weekend. My dad and his wife Tina came to town and so we've been able to spend a lot of time with them. We also managed to squeeze in some Jeepin on Friday with Nic's family.

Wed night my Dad arrived and so we all went to dinner at Olive Garden. For many of us Olive Garden is not that big of a deal but for Tina it's her favorite place to eat and that's because they don't have an Olive Garden where they live. So the feasting actually began Wed night for us! I would also like to mention that Dominik went absolutely nuts when Grandpa arrived. He was SOOO excited to see them. He was shriekin all thru the house it was cute. Then Thursday we woke up and headed up to Nic's family's to eat dinner with them before we went and ate again at my Aunt's house.

It was nice to get to see Nic's family for Thanksgiving well at least some of them. Jenn and her family didn't head up until after we left. This is Nic and I's first time trying to balance all the families but we managed to make it work. So after a quick and fantastic dinner at the Arnold's we headed up to the Wysong's for some more grub. We had a good time and my Uncle Dave has a pool table so Nic and the guys played pool while the gal's had some female bonding. After dinner and visiting we headed back up to Park City because we had to get up early to go Jeepin the Ephraim with Nic's fam.

So Friday we got up at 530 AM to get ready to go. Let's just say it took a few cups of coffee for us all to kick it into to gear. Jeepin was awesome! It was the hardest trail i've been on with Nic and with the ice that was up there it made the trail a little harder to do. Needless to say Nic did suffer some jeep damage on this little adventure. He took the paint off one spot. bent his top and chipped his rim but it's all in the name of a good time! :) The most important thing was that we had a blast and we all made it out with no injuries well besides the jeeps. After jeepin we headed home and just rested. We were both running on very little sleep.

Saturday was another day of adventures. Grandma and Grandpa came back to the house so we could do some Christmas shopping for Dom. Let's just say Nic has officially won his shopping badge for enduring hours of shopping! For those of you that don't know Nic, shopping is not his favorite thing to do. But he was such a trooper and that is why i love him so!!!! Dom got spoiled rotten we got a little art center, a tool bench oh and of course Grandma had to get him a nerf gun with darts. I'm not sure who got more fun out of it though, Nic seemed to enjoy it as well. I'm not going to be able to go home for Christmas this year so we decided to let Dom open his gifts so Grandma and Grandpa could see him do it. Needless to say he loved everything and it was fun to see him get so excited.

Then Tina and I got a wild hair up our butts and decided to go buy a Christmas tree at Big Lots and 9 at night. It was so sweet Tina bought me a tree all the decorations and a couple other things. So the Wysong household is now ready for the Holidays. There are even a few presents under the tree. All in all it's been a great weekend and it was so good to see my family! I also want to add that Nic has received the Wysong stamp of approval. He fits right in with my family which i knew he would. My dad left this morning which always makes me sad but we are planning a trip out there in a few months. So there is a summary of this weekends activities. This month is gonna be crazy but i'll try to keep more posts coming. We hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving
