Thanksgiving Break.....

It was so nice to get out of Pullman for a while. We hadn't left since we moved here in August. We left Thursday morning around 4:30 am. We drove in snow most of the way until we hit Missoula, MT, and the sun finally decided to come out. Friday night was the viewing for my Grandpa Bullinger. I have never liked viewings, but for some reason I had a wonderful comfort from my Heavenly Father during this hard time. Saturday was the funeral. It really was a beautiful funeral. The flowers were beautiful and some were the services. All of us grand kids and our husbands sang "I Know My Redeemer Lives", and "I am a Child of God". The last musical was sang by all my grandpa's boys and Grandma Bullinger. The music was really wonderful. I once again am so thankful for my wonderful family and the closeness we have. I know that my grandpa is watching over us as well as our Heavenly Father. We will all be able to be with grandpa again someday.
Sunday we were able to go to church with both of our parents. That night we all went down to my grandma Bullinger's. She is such an amazing women, and I love her so much. Monday Matthew worked with a Vet in Greybull preg. testing cows over in Worland all day. My mom and I took a trip up to Cody. It was great to spend some alone time with my mom. We spent the night at my parents that night, and the next morning headed back to Lovell to help out Stan ( Matthew's dad) for the day.
Thanksgiving day seems to always be a rush for us because we try to see all of our family in one day. But it was a great day. We had dinner with the Asay's first, then headed over to my parents to take family pictures. My aunt Mandy took them and I am excited to get them back. We hung out at the house for a while then headed back to Lovell to go to grandma Asay's where a bunch of Matthew's cousins , aunts, and uncles were for the holiday.
Friday I went to Billings with my family to the temple and shopping. My grandma Bullinger came with us to the temple. It was a wonderful experience to go through a session with her. She had lots to teach me about the importance of the temple. I was also able to get some maternity clothes. Yay for clothes that fit.
Matthew spent the whole day preg. testing his dad's cows with his uncle Clark who is a Vet in Utah. Matthew had a great break working cows most the time which is one of his favorite things to do. As well as help his dad out lots.We were able to hang out with our friends Richard and Katie, and Trevor and Andrea. We miss you guys like crazy. It was great to spend time with you all.
We had a wonderful break and made it back to Pullman safely last night. We came home to about 8 inches of snow on the ground. I wasn't too excited about that. We only have a few weeks left till we get to head back home for Christmas break. Also on the 15th we get to find out if we are having a girl or a boy. We are excited to find out.
