Return of the Prodigal Blogger

I've decided that I NEED to get some catching up done here so I swiped the computer from Dan after dinner and will do my best to get as much posted as I can tonight. So...

Do do Do do Do do Do Dooooooo (think Twilight Zone)

It's fall 2011. Date night and the camera came along to document the fun:

 

 

We know you are jealous of all our date night creativity, it's ok, you can admit it. :)

The Boise Temple is closed for remodeling so we have to travel to the Twin Falls Temple for awhile. We went for the first time to our temporary temple in October.

The autumn colors in our neighborhood were gorgeous. Every time I'd drive home from work I'd think about taking picture. Finally, I did. 2-3 days later, the leaves had all dropped off the trees.

Amanda & Jake came over for a quick weekend visit in October and a few days after they left Dan & I watched Harry Potter 7 Part 2 for the 2nd time, but this time in 3D:

Amanda was reading the photo book she made for Sid to Jake. Wish I'd caught it on video but by the time I had that thought, she was finished.

The Horrocks Family Thanksgiving gathering was in Boise this year. Andy & Angela hosted and we gathered for good food, puzzles, visiting, games, new released movies, and Black Friday shopping. We began (yes, I participated this year for my first time ever) at midnight and around 3:00 AM Amanda was finished for the night. I was spent sooner but since I was driving she and Jake, I did my best to not be a wet rag to their adventure. Also, while Amanda was with us, we celebrated her 26th birthday. A very festive, fun, and family-filled weekend!

Lots more to come but this is a good start for tonight. So until the prodigal blogger returns...
