Thanxgiving!

THANXGIVING IS THE BEST! It's my fifth favorite holiday so, pretty pumped. This holiday seriously ROCKS bc it's a chance for me to show off how greatful I am AND watch everyone else chub it up. Kinda ticked we aren't having it at J-dub's and Me's house this year, but whatever (JJWT's fam got fended when we hosted it last year and I only made one mash potato, but--TRUST ME--that's all they needed).

Reasons I'm so dang greatful this Thanxgiving:
  • Our cutest family ever--THIS IS WHAT HAPPILY EVERY AFTER LOOKS LIKE.
  • HOV! Now that I'm carrying twiners, me=3 so the carpool lane makes everything go way quicker.
  • Ikea...got a bumload of cute frames (seriously I should post pics of them in various arrangements and have you vote on 'em, huh?) PLUS we'd bin looking for one FORliteralEVER and finally found the perfect toffee table!!
  • ice ickles...for some wierd reason, to me they're so romantical.
  • The chance I'll have to talk to Ruth tomorrow about how there's still time to salvage her lameyawn of a wedding IF she's even DEAD SURE she still wants to go thru w/ it I can def make her wedding awesome instead of frump-de-dump.
  • best in laws ever...l o v e you Queenie & Guv! Thanx in advance for the Disney cruise!
  • The cold I caught this week that helped me lose those pesky preggo ell-bees...seriously, Bronkitis is the best.
  • **TMI alert! Don't read this one if you hate hate hate TMI!** Personal and icky I know, but WHOA the best nuzzling of my life right now! Not sure if it's increased circle-lation or just my body's way of rewarding me for making darling feti what but "hubba hubba"!
  • Also so greatful for how I have the BEST MOM EVER! She is my bestie, frills, and we have a ton in common, meaning our hot looks, singy-songy voices, inexplicable amounts of free time and our shocking lack of adult vocab.
  • Body spray. I can just spray and spray and spray and spray and spray and spray and spray and it's awesome! Impossible to overdue it! Same with lotion, esp. way smelly nummy flavors and esp. in public.
  • Dinner and how every year, no matter what, I make my best ever diet pie and it looks so dang good and tastes even better and everyone seriously stands in "ah."

How about you?

Hahaha! TAMN, from everything you've described, I think I know like 12 of your mother.

Kristina P. said...

TAMN, I am thankful for you and your shining example of charity and how to treat others.

I've started using many of your tips, and having been telling all of my loser single friends that they need to TAMN it up and then they will finally get a man. It's all part of the plan!

So thank you, TAMN, for being you.

Unknown said...

stopping by to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving! sounds like your off to a great start with your list...

Jules AF said...

So, do you actually eat anything you cook on Thanksgiving?
I bet you chew it all and then spit it out. That's what my mom and I do. It's such a fun game!

Kerry said...

Best nuzzling of your life!?

Ew.

Can't say you didn't warn me.

Anyway, can't wait to hear how your time talking some TAMN into Ruth goes!

jess said...

a bumload? oh em gee i can't stop laughing..

happy thanksgiving, TAMN.

Unknown said...

So glad your thankful. Could you puhleaze share your diet pie recipe because there may be a tad few frumps I could pass it on to, cuz I'm just nice like that.

I fear I may actually swallow significant amounts of delicious comfort food tomorrow. And I'm only eating for two, not three. I just can't be strong without your shining example right there in my face.

Sadie said...

Sex really is the BOMB DOT COM when you are preggers!!! I am so making a suger free, fat free, taste free, guilt free dinner tomorrow!!!! YUM!

Rach said...

I am thankful for this blog and the consistency with which it cracks me up. I stand in "ah" of your funny, even when your body spray overwhelms me.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, TAMN & FRIENDS!

Whitney R said...

Woohoo for nuzzling! And so great to hear it's better when your prego. Can't wait!

So... what are your four other favorite holidays?

wait, let me guess
1-your birthday
2-Christmas
3-Valentines day
4-Labor day (I mean, what better way to celebrate labor than to dedicate a whole day to it! I hope that next labor day, since you will officially be a member of the club, you go get mani's and pedi's. Cause, I mean, your laboring TWO!)

Gordita said...

"...inexplicable amounts of free time and our shocking lack of adult vocab."

That made my day. Seriously.

Jo said...

Serusly, just so sad that my life will never be like yours TAMN. Just so glad you post yours, so some of us can dream.

Lola said...

I am thankful for all my other not-as-hot-as-me-friends, because they make me look super hot when Im wit them!

Unknown said...

I'm SO thankful that my birthday is this Thanksgiving. I mean, I've totally dropped lots of teeny-tiny hints to everyone I know (even if I only know them a little bit) that they should show their gratitude for me by buying me awesome stuff. I even made a wishlist on Amazon and discreetly pointed everyone to it so they don't accidentally get me any yawner presents. Yay for me!


P.S. - Did you know Macy's is doing a parade for me? I totally deserve it!

Krista said...

OMGosh, I totally agree - impossible to "overdue" body spray (and spray and spray and spray and spray and spray and spray)!!! What is your fave?? Love Spell?? Warm Vanilla Sugar?? I have to know so I can be just like you!! Thanx!

Kate said...

I am way thankful I have someone to relate to in ril life. We are so alike it kinda scares me.

Happy turkey purging day, tamn!

I am thankful for you, TAMN.

amber belmonte said...

totally saw you + your mom at forever 21 yesterday. it's ok that you didn't recognize me and say hello, cause you guys were having a serious dilemma in the fitting room while sharing and trying on clothes together. 'is this skirt too short? am i showing enough modest cleavage?...etc.'

hope you guys figured it out. frills!

Olivia Meikle said...

"especially in public . . ."

Oh man, I was dying. But you forgot MOST especially in Sacrament Meeting.

Carli said...

TAMN, I am totally the one who came up with queenie and the gov! Dont I totally deserve a t shirt or a thank you card or sumthin'?

Amberly said...

I am so totally thankful this year because I get to see my awesomely pretty mom who is totally going to take me shopping for new skirts. I'll have to get one I can wear for Christmas Sunday. It's totally tradish! I also thankful bc my super talented SIL is going to take pictures of my fam for FREE bc she's starting up a photog business. I also get to make the all time fav of funeral potatoes for everyone. Everyone totally loves mine bc I use the frozen hash w/ little bits of peppers- even though it gives my 2nd couz heartburn. I'm also thankful I get to comment on this blog and type like you even though I don't really write or talk like that anywhere else. Teehee!

TheOneTrueSue said...

I don't know TAMN.

I read in an email forward that wearing sparkly body spray is really kind of like putting Satan juice all over your body, because then it makes boys want to look at you and think inappropriate thoughts.

DANGEROUS.

~j. said...

inexplicable amounts of free time

awesome.

Matt and Jennae Porter said...

I have to agree with previous posts... "inexplicable amounts of free time and our shocking lack of adult vocab" had me rolling off my computer chair.

Happy Thanksgiving TAMN!

Diane said...

TAMN I wish my mom was as cool as yours. Happy Thanksgiving! You have so much to be thankful for.

Abby said...

Thank you for being richiss and calling it a toffee table instead of the (ack!) c_____ table.

M.Howerton said...

Tamn - you are so funny, and seriously I love this post, just one downer.
my son is special and has been called the "R" word - I know so sad, but he doesn't even know what it means and I know totally not your problem, but if you would be super kind and a great example for the rest of us, please be careful when you use that word, it hurts little kids that were born special and can't help it.
Thanks for being such an Awesome e-bff and understanding an all.
You Rock - Happy Thanksgiving!

Petersens said...

Hard to believe, but I just found your super blog. Being the freshest to TAMN inspires me. Just when I thought I couldn't get any more darling...
Great post. Great blog. You funny.

SuddenlySouthernCyndi said...

I guess "toffee table" must be the new "Postum table". Happy Turkey Day TAMN! I'll enjoy a glass of wine in your honor while you enjoy your sparkling cider in your stemware--even tho that's still iffy.

Token Asian Friend said...

Bronchitis is pretty awesome, but if you want to drop some serious pant sizes, catch the flu. Or, drink pool water. Either one results in shopping spree after recovery!!!

Shayla said...

You are so cute & funny, if only there were more of you around!

Rachel said...

"we have a ton in common, meaning our hot looks, singy-songy voices, inexplicable amounts of free time and our shocking lack of adult vocab."
HAHAHAHAHAA!

Cracked me up SO much.

scooping it up said...

I'm thankful I know how to control myself at Thxgiving,honestly, who can bear not fitting into size two pants? I know I couldn't live with myself. I am grateful there are hot moms like you that can teach your bebes how to diet before they even enter this telestial realm, sooper important.

my stay-at-home-momma drama said...

You are the funniest person alive. You need a TV show. I'd watch it everyday . . . it would give me something to do with my "inexplicable amount of free time."

Megz said...

I just wish we could all go back to the first Thanxgiving with the Lamanites where they just ate fish and that brown corn stuff. Sure it's yuck, but wouldn't you rather eat yuck than look yuck?

Paula -- CutieFruity said...

I'm grateful that I lost 15 pounds last week. Having a baby is the best diet evah. Mind you, now I get no sleep and I have *TMI TMI, don't read any further if you hate TMI** >>roids<< it's the most horrible thing ever TAMN, if you have to squeeze your feti out, I hope for you that you don't have to carry around the so not fashoinable donut pillow.

The Crash Test Dummy said...

Tamn, did you know you have a boob nazi in your comment box. And someone said the s.e.x. word. EEEwwww. I thought you were talking about nuzzling?

And there's a girl taking pictures of herself in her bathroom mirror. I think we should introduce her to swirl.

LY Tamners. And Happy Thxgiving. This post was AWESOME! You da shizzle!

D. James said...

I'm sure someone has already said this, but I'm thankful for this blog.

jenn w said...

Amalie said...

Kelley @ magneto bold too said...

Seriously, you ain't a girl in Oz called Heather?

Cause she is for EVA asking me to 'borrow' her my stuff.
