November 2012


They always say as you get older time goes faster, I never believed it when I was little but as I blink it feels like it was just June and we were still in Park City. Love, love, love our new house and all of the blessings we have in our lives. I am always surprised at how much Utah has been such a wonderful fit for us. I would have never expected to be as happy and surrounded by an amazing landscape and good people here! Enough of the cheesy stuff but we really have it good, and this month I feel like taking a moment to be grateful is okay. I miss Minnesota for the family and friends we have there but Utah truly has become our home. We have been lucky enough to have family here like Brendan's brother Tommy and his girlfriend Brandy and his cousin Charlie. We also have friends here that are like family and have also helped immensely make us not homesick. Facetiming on the iphone with my Mom and emails/calls with my other Mom Kathy also help. Brendan and I are also lucky that the people we spend quite a few hours a week with are also incredible, having great co workers is also something I know we are both grateful for!
Thanksgiving this year we continued the third year of out traditional turkey day 5k and feasting at the Mays. It was good as always and was nice that the weather was mild enough this year to allow for some hot tubbing and yard games as well. As November comes to a close I find myself thinking about this past fall and it has been good. Now just bring on the snow so we can start some real winter here!
Love,
Alyssa and Brendan

P.S I have also included a picture of my lovely nephews Eli and Westin in this post, I love this photo Jack took of my little boys!
