I'm a dummy

Okay, so I wrote and added all of these updats, and they posted in reverse order instead of the order I wanted, and it is way too much work to start over...so make sure you scroll down through all of them!!!

My Smarty Pants

Trent has to create a robot this year in the engineering program. This robot has to work on sensors and get through a maze to pick up a crate, then bring the crate back out. It sounds complicated to me, but he has been working hard, and it is coming along. Everything if working right, and he is excited to see the finished product. Here's what he has so far.


Thanksgiving Weekend!

We had the Gunderson's visit for Thanksgiving. So, we had some fun. We went out to Herriman City Hall to celebrate Grandpa Dansie's 86th birthday. There were tons of people. Then, we went to dinner at my uncle Todd's house. We celebrated with my mom's side of the family this year. The meal was excellent.






We also went bowling and to a Utah Jazz game with the Gunderson's. It was a fun weekend.



Welcome Luke and Lucy

My friend Stacie Noall(Parker) had baby twins! The are the most adorable little babies. I love them. Trent and I went up to visit them at the LDS hospital. I can't wait to watch them grow!




Congrats to the new parents Stacie and Joe!

Baby Oyler

I threw a baby shower for one of my best friends, Marie. She is due in February, but she lives in Cedar City and it is hard for her to make it up. It turned out fun. We had it at my house, and just invited the 10 girls and a few of the mom's that Marie was close with. We had a pretty good turnout, considering the shower was the day of our first big snowstorm in the valley. She got a lot of good gifts!




Temple Square

The Thacker family has a tradition of going to Temple Square with some of their long time friends- the Horrocks family. Here are some pics of our outing this year. It was super cold!

Dansie Christmas Party

On Sunday the 21st we had a Christmas party with all of Trent's mom's side of the family. It is always fun to see all of them. Had a a white elephant gift and santa showed up!









So much to blog about!

Well, it has been forever since our last post and so much has happened. I will start with the most recent events. We had a busy and wonderful Christmas.
We started the festivities on Christmas Eve with the traditional snowmobiling trip! It was so freezing cold this year. There was a ton of snow, due the recent snow we've had. We did have a fun ride, but spent much of the time fixing snowmobiles and digging each other out. This was the first ride of the year for the Thacker family.




After that we hurried home for dinner with my mom's side of the family, at my uncle's house. We had an awesome dinner of steak and lobster that was so delicious. I discovered that I love lobster, when it is cooked right!




This is my hungry hubby waiting for dinner.


This is my aunt and uncle's dog...Have you ever seen a dog open presents. She doesn't just rip them, she really opens them.



After that party we headed to Mama and Papa Bugni's house, because Santa had already stopped by. We have started a tradition of opening everything on Christmas Eve late at night to save on sleep and time on Christmas Day. Trent and I made out with a lot of loot, a rice cooker, shop vac, clothes, dvds, blankets, slippers, we really scored. My mom is so great at gift-giving, she knows exactly what to get. Trent also got to open his big gift from me, because I had to hide it at my parents house. It was an air compressor...the guy loves his tools. He also got a work light, so I'd say between those and the shop vac he is well on his way to a full an complete garage!

It's an air compressor!


My mom got a new digital camera, and a plasma tv...lucky lady!


After that we came home and had our little Christmas between the two of us.

I got a new brown leather ottoman for the living room. Also, a new coat, running shoes, perfume, and sewing stuff! Trent did such a great job this year! I loved everything! Thanks babe!


Trent with his air compressor again. He also got all the accessories for it and he got a new coat, the new batman, and a laptop backpack. I didn't realize we sucked so bad at taking pictures at our own house!

Now for Christmas Day! It started off with us waking up to the power outage! Yay! So, needless to say we went to Trent's parents for showering and getting ready. We also had breakfast at their house and opened our gifts there. Then we were off to the hospital. Trent's Grandma Thacker had a stroke last Monday, Dec. 15th and has been in the hospital ever since. She is moving along in recovery, but is paralyzed on the entire left side of her body. So, the whole Thacker family went to the hospital to open gifts with Grams.






Then, we headed to the Bugni side's Christmas dinner. This was with my dad's brothers and sisters and all of their kids.
