Thanksgiving

Well this has been one hell of a week. We have both been so busy at work and have had so much other crap to do that it feels like we have had no time to rest, sleep, or relax.
We went to Melissa's parents home for the holiday which turned out nice. The only one in the family that was not able to make it was Bryan, he had to work. We all wish he could have been there but we had fun anyway. The food was great and it was nice to be away from our normal hussle and bussle. We came home Thursday night and planned on working on Friday but that did not happen. We spent the day trying to get caught up on all the things we needed to do. By the way...we are still not caught up but it was great to spend the day together. That is the first day in a long time we have been able to spend together. We all need more of those days.
Saturday Jason, Christin, their kids and the two of us all got up early, went to a Pauls house and began on the trek to spring city to find X-mas trees. We went to Spring City where you have to stand in line till 9:00 to get a permit then go up and cut a tree. This is a major family tradition for Pauls family, they are die hards. they have it planned out so much that someone goes up at three or four in the morning to save the spot then the rest of us arrived at about seven and broke out the camp chefs and cooked up one hell of a breakfast. We had it all, hashbrowns bacon sausage eggs and all the drinks you could drink. It was an exciting day that did not have a dull moment. We arrived back home at just the right time Nate and Karen returned to the house with my trailer. They borrowed it to move all their stuff to cedar city. When thy returned we went up to Pauls and picked up the trees. Once they left we had the Meyers over for a hot-tub relax party which was nice. then the meyers left and we brought the tree in and set it up. when we ran out of lights we went to bed. The night turned into hell for me I got sick. I was unable to sleep because i was too busy doing the bathroom things. It was one of the worst stomach flues i have ever had. I spent Sunday in bed or on they toilet. not fun but hey it seems to be over now, so off to work we go...

Who are the Keels

Kelly and Melissa met on April 1st 2005. They were set up on a blind
date by a couple friends from their jobs. One of Kellys electricians
was married to one of Melissa's front office people, Andy and Tona
Fulmer. Thanks to them, they became Kelly and Melissa.
After dating for a few months they became engaged and entered into
the covenant of marriage on December the fifteenth 2005.
While they were engaged they began to build their home in
pringville Utah. This is where they currently reside and yes they are
still building the same home. Kelly is a builder and has done the
majority of the work. It has become a home that will keep them busy
for a while. At just over five thousand feet it is a lot of house and
project. Besides the financial expence the home has cost time and one
of Kellys digits. Worth every ounce though.
Melissa is a Dental Hygienist for two offices and four dentists
in Utah Valley. Her Monday, Wednesday office is in Provo for Dr.
Larry Braithwaite. Her tuesday, Thursday office is a mile from her
home and has a father son team and an outsider. Dr.'s Rulon and
Jared Condie and Dr. Brian Tuft. She enjoys her job and it keeps her
busy.
Kelly, on top of the house, has recently purchased a cabinet shop
and is still selling granite counter tops for Rock Solid. Once the
economy turns again, he plans on renting a space and building custom
building components from furniture to stair parts(Treads and Risers).
Kelly grew up raising English Springer Spaniels. Soon after moving
into their home Kelly talked Melissa into a puppy which became Cinna.
Melissa soon fell in love and became used to a dog around. Cinna is
definitely Kellys dog though. Two years after Cinna came into the
family Melissa Came home and told Kelly about a patients friend who
had Springer pups. Several hundred dollars and many headaches later
the marrige was official and Cinna became Cinna and clumsy Jake.
Melissa is very attached to this clumsy dog regardless of all the drool.
Kelly, Melissa, Cinna, and Jake are happy living in Springville.
Kelly and Melissa have been trying since marriage to add human beings
to their family but have been unsuccessful so far. Hopefully soon but
for now it Kelly and Melissa, the two human beings and Cinna and Jake
the two human dogs
