November Has come and Gone Already!

November was busy and fun! 
We started it out by getting new iPhones. The are pretty Awesome! 

It's a learning curve getting to know a new phone, but it's worth the effort! 
Now we are playing with all the new features, including the camera!  
The new portrait setting is fantastic. 
So lots of selfies commin at ya! 
These 2 are workin' the camera! ha ha
Miss Kenna Menna! 
There are no words for this....I have no explanation. ha ha
Can you see the blurring of the background. That is the portrait mode feature. 
Trying to find the right outfit for RECON Boy band battle is hard work!
Going for New Kids on The Block style. 
Sometimes I can bribe him to give me a massage! ha ha He likes the Ninja chop method. 
He still loves his hats! 
Snapchat had a red lipstick filter.....Hmm, maybe I should get me some red lipstick! 
Filters are fun to play around with. 
Especially when we are gansta bunnies! ha ha
My Mom and I flew to Texas for RECON for REFIT. Mom came with me because I don't like to fly and we thought it would be fun to take a girls trip together or our birthdays! 


We ate at this place Called Rito Modern Mediterranean food. It was SOOOO GOOD!!
It took us forever to find a place to park, but was so worth it! 
After we ate we went to Whole Foods and bought a bunch of food for breakfast and snacks and stuff. So we were all set to eat without having to go out every time! 


I met up with some of the other Utah crew when I got there! This is Emily Driscoll.
We hung out for a while.
Because I was there basically by myself, I bounced around having to find someone to talk to. 
The first nights Experience class!!  We are ready to dance, dance, dance!! 
Day 2, we had break out classes. I met these 2 ladies, Jennie smith and Keri McDonald. I sat next to them in the Brand ambassadors class. Keri was flying solo too, so we went and ate lunch together! 
Another break out class, Megan is from Logan, so I knew her! 
Experience class for the second night! 

Met Angela and Emily. Emily said "it's good to see you on this side of the screen. She has to watch my choreo videos to approve them. It was cool that she remembered me.
We were up closer this time and it was REALLY loud! My ears were not liking it by the end.
After the experience class was the boy band battle.  

We got all decked out in our boy band outfits.
We did our thing and Rocked the stage!! ha ha
We danced to "Right Stuff" by the New Kids on the Block.
This is Maggie and Amanda. I was in a marketing class with Amanda and Maggie and I worked on Choreography together.  
Here is Maggie and I again. We hung out quite a bit. She is LDS
End of the Sunday activities. We got some Pix with ACE. So fun! 
Here is Jana Whitaker. She uses a lot of my edited music. She is pretty cool. She even bought me a swag shirt. That was pretty awesome! I met her sister too! In a different class and didn't learn until later that they were sisters. 
We got head shots. Turned out pretty good. 

Some of our Utah crew on the last day. 
We are a crazy bunch! 

Facetiming Tay-Tay. We laughed our heads off! She went and put her glasses on to match us! ha ha

Then we got a little crazy on snapchat. It was hilarious!
Crazy things happen at 1 am! ha ha 
This is the Weekes smile to the extreme! 
The day after RECON ended, we went to see the Dallas temple and go shopping!
Saw a cockroach....Yuck!
Partook in a bit retail therapy! We found some Awesome stuff! We scored big time! 
Meanwhile, at home, Grammie is scaling ladder to get the kids bikes down
and BK holds hands with a girl....I best keep an eye on these 2! 

Got some fun new Swag while I was in Texas! This is one of my favorites! 
We had a titch of snow. Nothing stuck, but boy, it was COLD!!!!!
We put up the Christmas Tree! We got a new tree at the end of last year,
so this is our first time using it! 
We got new ornaments and stockings too! The boys put up the star! 
Sarah came to town for Thanksgiving.....Jessica came down for an afternoon.
The kids had a lot of fun! 
I went to the REFIT turkey burn at the other building. It was good to get a work out in before eating so much turkey! 
We had Thanksgiving at the church. Alisha and Mark came.
 We also had Stephanie Bursey come too.
 

I occupied Lydia while Kalie ate.....
Sarah occupied Elliott while Alisha ate too....
We were on Baby duty and loved every minute of it! 
My buddy got his feelings hurt a couple times....Gotta make him laugh! Ha ha
They played volley ball for a while! 
Some kids played games.
The kids put together a little talent show. It was pretty good! 
Take a bow ladies! 
Sarah and I worked on the Rolex dance that the BYU cougarettes did. We burned some serious calories and had some serious fun! 
The came to our house and hung out the rest of the evening and the next day. 
The played outside and we made and decorated cupcakes for Braxtons birthday. 
MyKay and Conrad played a lot, inside and outside. They had a lot of fun together!  
Everyone was very sad when it was time for them to go home. 
Saileen is 13, Braxton is 9......quite a size difference there! 
Here is the crew! 



My mom and dad gave us these pictures for Christmas. I love them! 

It looks amazing!! 
Took the girls to Traverse Mountain and they had some cool decorations there!
