Surprise Party!!!

CHANGE OF PLANS FROM LAST POST...SEE BELOW FOR UPDATED INFO!
Charlotte Larsen is turning 21! Ok, maybe not, but I wanted to see who I could get rounded up for a birthday party for her Thursday (Nov. 6). Her actual birthday is Nov. 10, but I want the surprise factor so we are doing it on Thursday! We are going to have cake and ice cream at my house (3532 Heyward) and some games. Let's say 7:00pm. All families are invited. Since she doesn't check this blog I think we're safe if you want to leave a comment if you'll be there or not. Call me with any questions. 814-0017

Thanksgiving

Hello Fellow Neighbors and Friends,

I'll get to the point...my husband just informed me that he has to work the day before Thanksgiving and the day after. We don't have any family close by and always go to Boise to be with family for Thanksgiving. This year is different. We will be here for the holiday. I'm ok with that though because this is what I'm proposing. What I want to do is have a "stray" (I know, great term) Thanksgiving for all of you who, for different circumstances, don't have a place to go for Thanksgiving. Or, if you just want a change then you can still come! All are invited. I want to do the traditional food, football game in the morning, and maybe hit a movie afterwards (that is our tradition). I am open to suggestions or if you want to be on board, then let me know. We can do it at my house or anywhere else. I'm not picky. I just want to be around people on this day. Think it over and get back with me in the next week or 2 or leave a comment. By the way, this is Michelle Hall. :) 814-0017 :) Thanks for reading. All are invited. :)

We have an Olympic Skeleton Racer Racing Local!

Hey everyone!

Sorry its last minute but I know some of you wanted to know when I (Noelle Pace) would race here... So,I am competing in the U.S. National Selection races this weekend for Skeleton! (These races determine who will be on the World Cup team for the season). Whoever would like to come is more than welcome! Here are the details:

There are two separate races.

Cost: It's free!

When: Race #1 is Friday (tomorrow) at 5 PM (usually until 6:30 or 7 PM).

Race # 2 is Saturday at 5 PM.

Where: The Utah Olympic Park in Park City (Kimball Junction exit). Once you turn into the Olympic Park, turn left at the stop sign and drive all the way up the hill. Go past the buildings on your left (the visitor center and museum). There will be a gate. If it is up, just drive through, otherwise, the code to get in is 5690# . Continue to drive up the hill and you can either park on the side of the road by the first parking lot on the left (other cars should be there) by the finish dock, or you can try and drive all the way to the top of the hill and park on the side of the road to see us start our competition. The start, curve 6, and curve 12 are the best places to watch.

Wear: It has been pretty cold up here for the past few days. Bring your winter coats, gloves and hats! (and maybe some hot chocolate and snacks!)

If you have any questions, Delana Smith has been up here and is coming this weekend...so you can call her . 801-885-8178

See you soon!

Denise Ivory's ASL Class

Denise Ivory is teaching ASL classes on Tuesday nights at her house at 7:20PM. Everyone is welcome (including husbands and kids). Come and join in the fun and learn something new, as well as get to know your neighbors better. Hope to see you there!

Lock Your Cars or Park in the Garage

I heard through the grapevine today that we've been having some break-ins in our neighborhood parked cars. That's all I know. So just a little reminder to protect your valuables by locking your cars and/or pulling them in your garage.

Nativity Sets

I am going to be making a nativity set this year. Wes's aunt made pattens for some simple, inexpensive nativity costumes. She says it cost around $18 to make. I am guessing it might be a little more than that since they did bulk orders on fabric, but we'll see. (There is the cheap section at Wal-Mart.) If anyone is interested in making these, e-mail me at megative_11@yahoo.com or put a comment here and I will get you the info. It might even be fun to have a girls night sometime next month to get together and make them. Let me know what you think!

ALERT!!!

Stacey James needs a count of how many people want tickets to Highschool Musical 3 by today!!! Call her or comment on this blog if you are in and need tickets!
