November

(5:00 am wake up call)
I am putting this in the blog so that I have documentation of me 
getting my healthy on. It is so much a part of my life that it would be 
sad if it wasn't in the Savage history book (or blog).
I have worked  my patoosky off the past few months and have lost 26 lbs!
(I say this as I eat the remaining crumbs from a sugar cookie...aaah, NEVER. ENDING.)
With the help of my awesome trainer Melissa and some serious Whole 30 I am making
baby steps towards awesomeness!



AND now for some November love.
We got to go to Utah for Thanksgiving and at the last minute decided to fly.
Way better than a 13 hour car drive...Bella got to come too.
Pretty awesome mess
The best part of Utah

Cassie is almost a health teacher...we slapped on her beer goggles
so that we could get the feeling of being blitzed for a minute.

We got to celebrate Ninny's birthday. I love this girl.

Tate's cousin crush all the way.

I am loving how many cousins we got on this bad boy.


Seriously. Cute.

Tate is one happy boy when it comes to BYU football.

We had a Sunday dinner with my whole family.
FREEZE FRAME. love this crazy bunch.

Emmy ate her corn on the cob with out two front teeth!
It was epic.

Made pies with this sister. She has rad baking skills, she actually has
many rad skills and I am so proud of her. 

Emmy girl wanted to help..

So did this one.





Dad botched the turkey big time. We all laughed.
And then ate turkey jerky for dinner.

Finley loved Grandpa because he shared his Diet Coke.


Sydney did all the place settings...they made me happy.
I didn't do great at taking pictures and most of our trip someone was
sick. But we still managed to have a good time.
Tate has made me so happy this season
 with his many notes around the house to Santa.
WELCOME DECEMBER!

Boy,Voo Doo & Orthodontics

Lately I find my camera with pictures of someones
selfie. Man, it makes me pretty happy.
Age 7 reminds me that I am excited for them to turn 8.
~ Love my Tater.

I took a girls weekend to Portland with a couple of my friends for
Time Out For Women (fill my spiritual cup). I ended up feeding my
body more than my spirit I'm afraid.
The best part about Portland was the Voo Doo Donuts and if
someone tells you their not that great...they are full on lying.
I would consider being overweight the rest of my life for them.
Jessica Farrow, Leone Nielson, Stacie Gould
AMAZING,Venezuelan restaurant. 

Our boyfriends took care of the bandits...they even took on
Red Robin. Just for the record, I would NEVER in a million years do this.
Thanks nice Dads.




This happened. My rockstar got a rainbow retainer.
I love when she talks. "Sufferin Succotash"!!!

Wild hair day. And boy, was it wild.

Oh Bella Baby got new polka dots!

Halloween 2014

WAAAA HAAAA!
Halloween 2014. I love it. All of it. But my very favorite
was Trent dressing up as Mr. Clean. I kind of feel like he has arrived, embracing every part
of his true self. It will never
get better than this....
 Am I right? or am I RIGHT!!!
Thanks for making me the happiest viking ever.




Our neighborhood pre-trick or treat kick off!


Mark McBride & Mr. Clean

Mellissa (my cute trainer)  & Finny





Miss Piggy greeted the kids off of the bus

Trunk or Treat
Bishop Rigby wins the award



Of course we had to get a picture
of this cute pair (LOVE Katie Owens).

I might have taken being a viking over board....
but it felt SOOO RIGHT.


Give this kid a sucker and you are set for life.


Thank you Tate for making us laugh.

Emmy and her "bird" dog!



I had to take one last wig picture...I go into
a Halloween depression sometimes.
