Happy New Years

We had so much fun in AZ for new years. We had a big group over to play games and bring in the new year. It almost felt like utah it was so cold! We hope you all haven't already broken your new years resolutions!! Here's to a great 2010 and an even better 2011!!


We went through many sparklers and trials to get this AWESOME picture! Happy 2011!!!!





I was lucky enough to be home at the perfect time of my best friend's baby being born. Congrats Dani and Ty! Josie is a doll!



Me and my two best friends!

Wii Love Video's

We spent hours doing Wii with both sides of the family. Just Dance II, Michael Jackson: The experience, and Wii Sports Resort.

















Merry Christmas to All

It was another fabulous Christmas with the Fowlers this year. We were given the opportunity from Blaine and Brenda to find a way to give back during the holiday season. The true meaning of Christmas is contagious and we all have something we can give to others. Here are some pictures from our wonderful break from real life...

The most WONDERFUL time of the year!

School's out!!! Landon and I have been working very hard this past semester. I am one semester away from my Master's degree and Landon is almost done with his first year in the Master's of Accountancy program at BYU. Phew! We look forward to the day our hard work pays off. We were able to celebrate the end of the year with the BYU Bowl game in New Mexico. It was relaxing and a nice free vacation. Now we have the rest of the break to spend stress-free with family, friends, food and fun. Here are a few pictures from the past few days.


GO #43!!

Christmas Craft

I don't really decorate for the holidays. Now before you gasp and think what a terrible wife and homemaker I am you must understand I live in a box. Each nook and cranny is filled with things that belong in storage until we can move into a not-so-cramped place. If I were to decorate our little box would look like the little old lady on hoarders that doesn't have an inch to breath. Until then, the idea of getting decorations and stressing about finding a place to put them gives me anxiety ----> zits. It's just not good for me. Another problem with decorating is that I am frugal (aka cheap/stingy w/ $) so I don't want to put my money there. However, while browsing through Hobby Lobby I saw some adorable Christmas tree's. I didn't want to dish out the whopping $12 each for these tree's I was determined to make them myself. I think they turned out pretty cute and they fill up just the right amount of space. What do you think?!





Thanksgiving 2010

Thanksgiving was a great break from school, and the cold weather. We happened to leave before one of the biggest snow storms to hit Utah. I took the 10 hour drive with the brother's and sister in law and Landon came down a few days later. We made these cute little turkey's for everyone. It was a fun little project and think they turned out pretty cute.



We then took advantage of the beautiful weather and went on a family hike. It's always a good idea to do something active during Thanksgiving break to work off the pounds of food put on. Landon weighed himself before and after the FEAST and he gained 4.5 lbs! haha


Landon wanted to make the hike a little more exciting. (Arizona is pretty flat if you didn't know) so he ventured off the trail and climbed dangerously through cactus and unstable rocks to get to the top of a peak he saw some distance away. It had to stay behind to make sure he didn't die or get attacked by a mountain lion. See if you can find him in the second picture. He's WAY up there.







It was good to see friends and family and spend time on/with the things that I am most thankful for.

Last Home Game

The football season is almost over. We have one more celebratory bowl game in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We get to leave for an all-expense paid trip to cap off the year on Dec 18th. Thank you to our family and friends that always have positive things to say about Landon and the hard work he has put into the team.
