Tebowing.
Tim Tebow:
I like it.
a lot.
The more i find out the more I like 'im. The dude is EXACTLY my type! Perfect height. Weight. Muscles. Athlete! HOT. Dark hair, blue eyes (weakness). A little younger....yummmmmmmm...
Today on some morning show they were talking about the new "planking" but it just so happens to involve Tim's prayer-kneeling-stance...which reminded me:
taken on Thanksgiving day.
My sibs are so freakin' trendy.
If you don't know anything about Tim Tebow, I highly recommend you go here:
I dig.

Returned to Sender!
Remember him???
HE'S BAAAAAAAAAAAACKK!!!
So, before Bill came home, mom prepped his room (clothes, etc) and jess, spence, ris and I made some awesome signs:
Yes. she always stands like that at a table.
(and I know. we should probably decorate for the holidays...)
Finished product
(panoramic view)
We were going to hang the giant sign outside but the day he came home it was stormy and FREEZING cold
(naturally)
We arrived at the airport (12-1-11) at around 3pm (his plane was to arrive at 3:06pm and we like to run early in my family.......)
Cheese!
this is the airport group
(matty and dad couldn't make it, unfortunately)
Amanda (aforementioned bff) works at the airport and met us at baggage claim so she could be our family photographer for the event :) (she's so awesome!)
there were two possible terminals Bill could have been exiting from (according to our expert) so we roamed between the two for 15min or so (very cattle-like)
No shame.
moo...
(particularly mom. ...eat a burger)
Elder Tuttle was surrounded by a bunch of people chatting them up, but when
he spotted us he jumped and ran!!!
Mom first :)
so.. i cry.
"reunited and it feels so good..."
the not-so-little bro :)
some strangers that wanted to welcome him home
(which I love...I want to be more like that. very friendly)
free at last, free at last....
Gear got got, then off to the Stake President's house
for Bill's release!
We thought we'd just end up meeting matt and dad at home, but they surprised us and showed up at Pres Romney's house! :)
precious
(Bill thinks matty changed the most. I think he's still a tiny baby cute guy. but...whatev)
We gathered around a formal sitting room and Bill shared a few stories from the mission as well as his testimony and the the President took him in another room. While they were gone, Sister Romney came into the room and shared stories with us...
and the conversation was exhilarating.
(lol. each of their facial expressions crack me up)
Home Sweet Home!
enjoying the BEST GIFT he'll ever get.
Mom made an awesome homemade meal (we were thinking he might prefer that to our normal port of subs or villa) and then we all just chilled and had a few visitors that night, but it was just awesome to have him and his southern-accent-self back :)
best friends. still :)
i freaking hate scrapbooking.
But we did it.
The Saturday after Thanksgiving, Celeste Jess and I finished the g.d.thing!!!
(and we got fancy too)
It is a BEAST.
At least 8 inches thick.
blah
cherish it Bill.
I'm serious.
Thanks.
This Thanksgiving was so chill. Clayt and Jen stayed "up north" and Bill was still in TN, so it felt kinda small!
The day started out as many others do...
Dad. in his spot...
Parade just getting started...
Mom (glamorous) and in her spot
Here's where I totally slacked this year and didn't get any pics of us preparing the actual meal...but refer back to years past. There wasn't really any change this year, I promise.
The annual breaking-out of Mom's china :)
Amanda and I
(just about to ichat ..? with her parents and family in CA)
Crazy to think I've known and been best friends with this girl for more than HALF of my life! And we've never spent a Thanksgiving or Christmas together. Quite a milestone, if you ask me.
Possibly pre-round 2 or...dessert?
typical.
(spence is a freakin' cat. Post to come)
Hope your day was great!
On to the next one...(holiday)
