Christmas Gifts...

December 2013...We decided to give everyone my famous peanut brittle and a flat-bottomed
spoon that my dad engraved on for Christmas.  I LOVE making my peanut brittle and thought it would be fun to share my favorite Christmas gift with those I love (my family, John's family and a few friends).  Everyone seemed to love it, so we were happy with what we gave everyone.  I still get comments from people all the time that my peanut brittle is their favorite, by far.  It is my Grandma Emery's (Reeve's) peanut brittle recipe.  She personally taught me how to make it, and I
have made it every year since!  I love this family tradition, and will always keep it!

Joanna & JT's Christmas Concert...

December 15, 2013...Joanna & JT invited us to their Christmas concert at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.  They did such an amazing job!  We went last year and they sang at the church building on Temple Square.  It was so much fun to go and support them.  There were a lot of people there, and they just did wonderful!  We love hanging out with Joanna and JT.



Thanksgiving with John's Family...

November 27, 2013...We had so much fun!  We went to Chuck-A-Rama in Sandy for lunch/dinner.  This has been a Campbell/Tucker family tradition that happens every couple years.  Chuck-A-
Rama opens at 11:30am and so a few of us got in line to wait.  I can't believe how many people actually get in line to eat there.  I LOVE the idea of eating at an all-you-can-eat buffet for Thanksgiving.  I love knowing that I can eat a little bit of everything and not have to be in the kitchen all day long.  Most of the Tucker's came and Ted and John were there from the Campbell side.  I just love John's family!  We have a lot of fun with both the Tucker's and the Campbell's.  This is a great family to marry into.  I think we got a picture of everyone that came.  The
reason we did lunch here is so that we didn't have to stress out and make all the food; however, Joanna was so sweet and we came back home and she had practically made an entire Thanksgiving feast for dinner that night.  She made rolls, turkey, ham, beans and some potatoes.  It was fantastic, so we had another feast that night.  YUM!!!!
