{brett, whitney, lincoln & griffin}

Here are some more highlights from our break.  

Lincoln was so good at the restaurant, it was so awesome....

Katie and I have the same taste and got the same shirt... 

And a few more games....

=another success story.

1. Lincoln silliness.

2. Shopping.

3. New pillow!

A month ago Laura found out about a show that Abravanel Hall was hosting with the Utah Symphony, called Video Games Live.  She invited me and we got tickets for our hubbies for Christmas.  The show was really awesome.  They played songs from lots of different video games and showed video of the games on a screen behind it.  It was so fun to be with Matt and Laura and have Claire and Bob babysit Lincoln so we could go.  Thanks!

Over Christmas break, on the 28th, Andrea and I threw a shower for my cousin, Hannah.  She is due in April with a darling daughter, Lyla.  I am so excited for her and I know that she will be such a fabulous mom.

3 years ago today I married my best friend and it has been such a blast!!  We got married the 27th of December in the Salt Lake Temple on a beautiful day...

I loved our wedding day...

To celebrate our anniversary we went to dinner in Ogden at Zucca and got incredible meals.  We both wanted Lasagna and Pizza so we split (the beauty of being married, you gettin' share meals).  The food was so good.  We topped it off with dessert because hey, it was our anniversary :)

We asked our waiter if he could take a picture for us and he responded "I hope I can"...well Sir, I wish you could have too because this is what we got ha ha good picture, right??  

After dinner we went to the Junction in Ogden and saw Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol.  It was so good!!  We loved it. 

1.Brett.

2. 3 years of marital bliss!

3. Adventure ahead!

Brett's birthday was truly a birthday bash!!  I can't believe this amazing man is 26 years old.  

 For his birthday Lincoln and I got him an ipod, headphones, shoes, and backscratchers.

Christmas day was exceptional.  We spent the morning at my parents home opening presents, eating a yummy breakfast, and playing with our new toys.

Twas the night before Christmas Eve and all through the Dustin house all the people were stirring, even the babies...ha ha we seriously had a wonderful night.

This year I hosted a girls Christmas Luncheon with all my darling girlfriends.  It was so fun to eat, play games, and chat.  

After years of fear, hours of online research, and 24 hours of thought, preparation, and 2 1/2 hours of cooking, my first turkey turned out perfect!!  I couldn't be more proud. (Plus, it was FREE!!)

We are all sick.  The bubonic plague has struck the Mellor household with terror.

No, but seriously we all have colds and it stinks.  Poor Lincoln has a constant stream of green goo coming from his nose, poor little guy.  He is army crawling everywhere and he is so darling.  He is just my little buddy that pals around with me.  Today he ran errands with me for Christmas stuff.  He is the best.  People always stop me and tell me how darling they think he is.  At Winco a couple weeks ago I got a turkey for spending 100 bucks and right now it's cooking in the oven. I'm so nervous.  I have never cooked a turkey before and I hope it turns out!

Holly took this picture in the summer and I love it.

There is so much to love about Thanksgiving.  Just to name a few:
