2013 wrap up

Apparently I been having too much fun to blog...  

{at least that is what I will pretend has been going on as an excuse for not posting about happenings during this busy season of fun fun fun!} 

So here is a quickie rundown of the latest and greatest in my little life:

The annual Fowler Halloween party

 I was finally Wonder Woman for halloween

 Brynns Birthday Bash in St. George with the Emma & Amanda

 Ill just take fabulous pictures of both of you while I'm ugly over here...

If you didn't know, I'm pretty bad-A

We ate lots of yummy food, celebrated the birth of brynn {she would have been 27 this year} and danced in honor of her. As you can tell we hiked, finally tried The Swig (not as great as everyone says),  sat in the sun, downed some delish Neilsons Frozen Yogurt, has breakfast at the Bear Paw. The only way this trip could have been  better was if brynn had actually been there with us. 

Thanksgiving

as always, I ate too much.

Other joys of November: Tim got married, I found out I'm getting another nephew from my step-sister Catherine, and friend Monica is engaged {b t w this all happened on the same day}

Holy Jolly Christmas

I saw the lights, had the best hot chocolate from Hatches, babysat Hudson and took a million pictures, partied with friends in PJ's, opened presents and...

More to come on my adventures of Halloween this year!

I jumped out of a airplane

To wrap my birthday festivities (yes, I celebrated all month long!) I went to Moab for a quick trip. My goal for this year and more specifically birthday goal was to go skydiving. I never thought I would ever want to throw myself out of a perfectly working airplane, but I did it. My friend Traci and her husband Steve came down for the weekend of fun and adventure. Unfortunately, our tripped was planned a few weeks in advance and the government shutdown started the week we were going down there. That hindered our plans to check out arches national park but we made it work.

Skydiving was not nearly as scary as I thought it would be. When we first got there we jumped into our suits and went straight to the plane. There was a storm coming in that we had to beat but we couldn't get high enough and the storm was too close. so they landed the tiny little plane we were in, which was the scariest part. Ive never flown in a plane that small and landing it that thing was terrifying! It was so small we could only have to tandem jumpers at a time, and I was basically sitting in the cockpit next to the pilot. We then had some spare time to take the pictures next to the plane while we waited out the storm. Then the sun was bright and we were good to go! packed back into the plane and up, up, up we went! I thought I would be more scared but it was not to bad. The door opened and the freezing cold wind smacked me in the face, at that point I don't remember much else. Apparently we did some flips and spins but I don't remember. 

 

we made it!
