Once There was a Snowman

Yay!! It finally snowed! We had the first snowfall of the season today at about 3:00 PM. I know the exact time because it was right before school got out and I had about 15 students complaining about walking home in the snow. Since when do kids care about being out in the snow? (especially the first day it snows) Oh well, at least I was excited. Everything looks so awesome with the Christmas lights and the thin sheet of snow on top of everything. I have been waiting patiently to be able to blare all my Christmas music. And now I can!!

Hannah's Baptism

Spencer's niece Hannah got baptized on Friday and it was awesome. Her family is here all the way from Rochester, NY. Although Hannah wasn't feeling that well and had a bucket by her side, she looked beautiful and so clean and pure. Great job Hannah- we are so proud of you. Keep up the good missionary work in New York!

Happy Turkey Day!!

Well, Thanksgiving has come and gone. It was my year, so we got to go to Grandma and Grandpa Egans house. Thanksgiving day was great- good food, good company and good fun. After eating Grandma's delicious dinner, we played games and hung out. Then went to Spencer's parents for dessert and watched Hairspray. Well- I did, at least. Spencer refuses to try and like that movie. Friday I went to three different malls and we got new IPODS which I am pumped about!! (Sorry Ryan) That day we had turkey sandwich leftovers at Grandmas, and Saturday the leftovers were made into turkey soup. Grandma out does herself every year! Saturday, Spencer went up to Hennifer and cut down our beautiful Christmas tree. I love having a real tree- it's awesome and smells so good. Then we went over to Spencer's parents for more pie and ice cream. 4 days of pumpkin pie- can't beat that!! Well, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. We all have so much to be grateful for. I thank Heavenly Father everyday for the awesome husband, family and friends I have in this life. Love ya all!!

Congrats to Annie and Josh

Annie and Josh got married last Saturday and the weather was awesome. She looked gorgeous and everything seemed to go smoothly. It was fun to get all dressed up, even if by the end of the night everyones feet were killing and we all had our shoes off including Annie. (actually the mother of the bride didn't even wear shoes at the reception-we love ya Marsha) They are now honeymooning in Cancun. (Lucky!) Pictures soon to come.

Better Late Than Never

Thanks to DAWG I finally figured out how to put a slideshow on my blog. Thanks Steffy!!

Good News at the Bitner home

It has been surprise after surprise at the Bitner home lately. Emily and Brian told us last Sunday that they are expecting another baby in June. Emily is about 9 weeks a long. And Lucas will no longer be the only grandchild.
Then on Tuesday, Alissa called and told me she is engaged! Let's be honest: we all knew it was coming, but it was good to hear it was official. We are so excited for both you two. Alissa and McKay met at their U of U ward this summer. They are such a cute couple and are totally perfect for each other. You can tell they are so in love. They are getting married on January 11th at the Salt Lake temple. Good job McKay! Way to go. We love you guys!

Dan in the MTC

Dan has been in the MTC for about 3 weeks now and is doing awesome. He is loving the Danish language and learning the discussions. His companion is from Australia (which is cool since my dad and Spencer's dad both served in Australia). I think he really wants to get out into the mission field and teach the Danish people, but he'll get there when it's time. We love and miss you Elder Bitner!!

Trick or Treat

I finally got my wish on Halloween! I got to have a Halloween party at our place. We had a cookie decorating contest, bobbed for apples, watched the old, scary movies on TV, and played mofia. It was quite the party. We had Cleopatra there, Harry Carrey, Ron and Hermione, Michelagelo, a skunk, a zebra, a monkey, a troll, a janitor, a red neck, and more. Happy Halloween!!
