J Hilburn-The Perfect Present for Your Husband/Father/Brother/Son



In December we are doing a special for gift cards. We are offering a free tie for any gift card for a Brown Label Shirt ($99) or a Black Label Shirt ($149). OR a Free Men's Polo Shirt ($79 value) with the purchase of any gift card of 3 or more shirts. And as always, I can give you $20 off your first purchase :) So you can get your husband (or loved one) a custom tailored shirt that fits him perfectly for only $79.00 PLUS a free TIE (shipping and tax not included). We've got someone in Washington and Utah and a few other states that can get measurements if I'm unable to, we can work it out, these are great unique presents that your husband will be SO EXCITED to receive, and think that you put a LOT OF THOUGHT into getting him the best gift :) Merry Christmas!

Thanksgiving

We decided last Monday (a week ago) for Thanksgiving we were going to take a trip back to Utah. Brad's Grandpa, Dean Brockbank, passed away on November 21st, and his funeral was on Saturday, so we decided... why not? Besides the 20 hour drive, nothing else was holding us back, so we decided to jump in the car and take a trip :) I'll tell you what, I'm SO GLAD WE DID! It was an incredible trip. We had such a great time. Thanksgiving Dinner was the best I could have ever imagined at Bart and Jeni's (my brother in law/sister in law) house as they are pretty much the best cooks IN THE WORLD. I got to hold a little newborn for like 2 days straight, which was so fun, and we went shooting, and just had a blast. On Friday night we went to the viewing and Saturday to the funeral. I got to sing a solo a capella and that was fun, glad that's over :). The girls were SO good in the car, even though it was 20 hours each way, they hardly complained at all.

Blogworthy Moment: Abbie is responding to the question of how old are you... "I'm four (holding up all fingers but her pinky), I'm a grown up now." I thought that was hilarious.

We had a great time, I miss my family and friends in Utah. I sure loved coming back home and sleeping in my own bed though, there's something about your own home that is so welcoming, it sure feels good.

We're excited to be moving in January though to a new home in Richardson, TX. Its about 20-30 minutes away from where we are now. Its got an incredible school that Tori is now going to (Hallelujah) and its a brand new townhome with a two-car garage and a back yard. Granite Countertops, Stainless Steel Appliances, Crown Molding, you know, all that good stuff. I'll post pics once we move Jan. 1st. We're doing a lease option so that we can see where the market is in a year and decide then. 25% of our rent is going towards our down payment if we choose to buy, so that's really good.

Life is good, we're happy, excited for the future, and happy where we are, and SO GRATEFUL we aren't where we were a year ago!!!! Woo Hoo!!!
