thanxgiving & The Game

Thanxgiving rocked!

Love it when it's my turn to be w/ MY fam and I dont have to pretend to heart my MIL's thunder-thigh yams. I just put Alivyiah and Tridger in there appliqued turkey onesies w/ suspenders on him and a fall-colored petticoat tutu thing on her and honestly they never looked festiver.

One of the hi-lites: got to hang out w/ my bro Derek! LOVE him, can't wait for him to settle down and start a fam, so fun to have him in town from NYC! He's on Team Edward but now leaning toward Jacob due to buffness which is neat that he gets it. Fun to dish w/ him while the rest of the boys talk about how hard but important it is to have macho jobs like orthodontics, and also talked about how where they went to law/biz/med/dental school was going to kick wherever someone ELSE went to law/biz/med/dental school's trash in football.

And honestly everyone, about all the Max stuff, seriously, people keep emailing me about it and I stay out of the rivelry stuff {controversy makes my head hurt and football is confusing} but as a reminder, I have the upmost respect for everyone and both teams wanted JJWT to play for them but he didn't want to hurt his law/biz/med/dental school chances w/ concussions so decided to give Max and Louie a chance to shine. Total giver! Love you babe!

So fun! Did Derek's roomie come along?

And Boo about Max!

Kerry said...

Bahaha! I forgot about Derek! I love Derek. Also, I hate that Max is such a hater, but, GO BYU!

Sarah Schulz said...

Go Team Jacob!

I'm waiting for a post about how much shopping you did on Black Friday that was really just to buy stuff for yourself and maybe a token gift for JJWT. Just waiting. :)

byu > the u.

the end.

I don't know, TAMN. Maybe JJWT should have played football. Guarenteed his post-win speech would have been one that united both teams, healed old wounds, and brought fans from both sides together forming an army of love, respect, and righteousness that would ultimately overpower all evil and contention and bring about world peace.

Because being a quarterback in a state that most Americans can't locate on a map is a really big deal.

Frau said...

At eight months most righteous mothers are boasting about how their kids are in 2 and 3 T already and they can't find onesies or baby sleepers to fit.

*frownsmile*

Don't get me wrong, I'm not judging you. Well, except for the fact that you shouldn't have started them on solids so soon, or maybe they aren't getting enough solids, or no one should be having twins (I managed to avoid it so anyone can), or you did let them get both H1 and N1.

So I'm not judging you but you should know that "Failure to thrive" is serious business. It might be your fault. But maybe you're doing your best and it just might be God's plan for your babies to pine away and die.

*Frownier frownsmile*

Jules AF said...

But how do I know what emotion to feel if I don't know how YOU feel about it???

kris said...

LOL. I really HAVE seen posts today with pics of babies in appliqued turkey onesies.

Trent!? said...

What a dumb thing for him to say. Stay classy, Max.

scooping it up said...

i am so far removed from zion that i have no idea what you are talking about in this post.

thank heavens. what a relief.

Adam said...

I love how Hall's BYU education couldn't help him spell "utmost," in his "apology" statement, and how TAMN caught on to that.

U >>>>>>>>> BYU.

That's all.

Rach said...

Whatever! Go Derek! Go Cougs!

How much did you love "The Blindside"? (Don't worry, like me, you don't have to understand football to enjoy it!) Did you totally relate to Sandra Bullock? You're always doing selfless things that are almost akin to taking in huge homeless kids from the other side of the trax (who go on to become famous athletes) and also I bet you don't take off your makeup at night, to keep the spark in your marriage.

Little Lovables said...

So, Derek is team Jacob now huh? I wonder which one his roomie most resembles?

Unknown said...

Man, on the CBS channel they expected us to watch without the yellow line thingys that tell the guys how far to run. STUPID!

Good thing we have the Mountian on cable...just like the mountains of Zion- they had the yellow lines visible, totally like the iron rod. Football is so spiritual.

kris said...

Snort.

What is it with "kick your trash" as a phrase, anyway?

Brynn said...

Don't listen to frau chubby babies are snuggly. Besides they have like a bigger chance of being chubby when there older, which is total frown smile.

I think you should TOTALLY sell your onesies on etsy how fun! You could do holiday applique, little ties for the baby boys, flowers for the girlies. FUN TAMN, I bet no one has thought of the idea!

Brian and Kenna said...

Oh no! They are using you blog to fight over BYU vs U... please make them stop before they destroy the spiritualness that is this blog {frownsmile}

Becky said...

Totally on team BYU here, but did anyone else see Max Hall drop the F-bomb during the game??? SCANDAL!!!

Kari said...

I totally want to hear about all the shopping you did at Kohls on Friday morning! ...and how hard it was to wake up SO early, and how you left your husband to hang Christmas lights for your parents while you shopped for 8 hours. Totally unlike myself...

Greg R. said...

Andrew George is still running! Go Cougs!

dharvey said...

TAMN, I LOVED hearing about the onesies that you're babies wore. Soooo adorable. And Frau, obese babies are NOT HEALTHY. Stern frownsmile.
TAMN, stay sweet, and avoid this rivelry between the Utes and the Zoobies. You know what they say about "contention." Love you, XOXO.

Unknown said...

So sad that I can't see your beautiful blog title :( Silly photobucket!

Does the kicked trash end up in someone else's backyard?

Madame Palmkey said...

I totes want to stand up for Frau. Not that I think obesity is cool because OBVIOUSLY it isn't, but from what I overhear when it comes to baby competition its all about development and who's precocius. I think the happiest solution here would be to go buy toddler clothes, clip out the 2 or 3 T tags, sew them in the baby onsies then make sure the tag always flips out "So annoying!" so people can see how your babies are ahead of the growth spurt and are practically already speaking in Shakespeare pentagrammer. THEN when they're toddlers (or at least Aliviahye or however you butcher her stupid name no offense) you sew in the baby size tags and you can make a big deal about how your precious angel is so wee and darling.

PERFECT!

Ashley said...

How awesome that your brother is Team Edward! I think a lot of us have "Team Edward" brothers. ;)

And as for the BYU quarterback dropping the F bomb for all the eight year old fans to see...cut him some slack. It's hard to be an example when people are watching. I bet in private, he's perfect...like all BYU athletes.

Unknown said...

festiver

I love it :)

Stephanie Ellinger said...

So its December 1st and there are still no Christmas songs up. Whats up with that?

Shouldn't that have been up like a month ago on your blog?

frownsmile

Deon said...

Lurve how you followed the zample of Max Hall and used "upmost" so very correctly.

Ashley said...

Max is seriously, so right!

Go Cougars!

Michelle said...

Mhana, you rock.

shannon j said...

You don't cheer for BYU?

{frownsmile}

Anonymous said...

Max did not drop an "F" Bomb! He said "FLIP"

Unknown said...

Mhana you funny! As far as the weight thing goes you want T to be a big, chunky brick (SOLID!) and A to look nearly starved (DAINTY!). I do have a friend with a 1 year old on a diet. And no, she doesn't need it. She already looks like she'll blow over in a strong wind. It's kind of scary. Body issues galore!!!

Ariel said...

I know right? Orthodontics is a totally manly profession. It is prefect for football loving men!

Kim said...

I'm impressed with your use of the hyphenated compound adjective.
