Landon's Homecoming

Landon's Homecoming was yesterday. He did an amazing job with his talk. The dinner after was good too. We got to see people that we haven't seen since he left. It is awesome to have him home. Now we need to find him some cute new friends of the female gender!

Our New Bumper Sticker

We went to Angie's and tried the kitchen sink. We were going to get one per couple. It was a good thing our waitress talked us out of it :)! We are now the proud new owners of an Angie's bumper sitcker.

Happy B-day Mama Char!

He's Back!!!

Landon came home on the 14th. I will admit I wasn't to excited to see him. I have gotten so used to him being away from home I thought that it would be weird to have him back. All I have known him as for the past two years is a pen pal. Besides I have yet to meet a normal RM. Landon has changed. I would definitely say for the better. He is the same old goofball, but more sincere and kind. I went with my family to pick him up from the airport. The second I got to hug him I didn't care if he was going to be a weirdo, it was just so good to actually see him.

He didn't know, but my parents bought him a new snowmobile for Christmas. It was sitting in the garage with a few of our aunts, uncles, and cousins when he got home. My dad had signed him up to race in Preston two days after he got home. So the night he got home the boys were up late putting together his snowmobile, so we could all go riding the next day. Don't worry my parents warned the neighbors he was coming home so they weren't surprised when someone was flying up and down the field on a snowmobile at 12:30 in the morning. Landon did really well, he qualified second. Not to bad for not riding a snowmobile for two years, at least that we know of!

Landon, my mom, and grandma flew to California on Saturday so he was unable to finish the hillclimb. Landon went back to baptize one of the kids he had been teaching. It is awesome to have him back. He must have missed us too, because he called everyday multiple times just to say hi, while he was back in Cali. Who would have though that one day my punching bag/scratching post/chew toy would be one of my best friends.

Our Holidays

During the holidays we get double the food, double the presents, double the relatives since we live close the both of our families. I have yet to decide if this is a blessing or a curse haha. This year for Thanksgiving we ate at both my Grandma P's and the Chatterton's houses. We ate way to much but it was fun to see everyone. Buzzy and Karina went with us to cut down trees this year. There wasn't much snow so we just walked to find our trees. My parents went the weekend after, and by that time it had snowed enough to take the snowmobiles. Jared got to ride his new snowmobile for the first time. He had a permagrin! We had million Christmas parties. Kenny and Michelle had a party and that was fun to see them and meet some of their other friends. Jared had his work party at Copper Mill. We then had the Archibald Christmas party. Santa came and we had dinner. Christmas Eve we went to the Chatterton's for dinner and had our traditional Christmas program. It is always fun. We then went to my Grandma P's for dinner (no wonder people gain so much weight over the holiday's). We did white elephant gifts, and the traditional candy bar game. We then went back to Chatterton's and spent the night and Christmas morning at their house. Later Christmas day we went and talked to Landon (he comes home on the 14th of January yeah!) and opened presents with them. As always we got way to much for Christmas, but it was fun, and good to spend time with friends and family. The day after Christmas we went to Salt Lake and went to the Cheesecake Factory with Buzzy, Karina, Adam, Steph, and the kids. It was a great way to spend a day away from work, and was awesome to see the Revelli's. To end the x-mas holiday Jared, Brennon, My Dad, Red, and I went pheasant hunting ( I watched and took pics). The boys all proved they could provide for the family. After watching I would rather go to Walmart any day!

Thanks Girls!

I have been taken a new medicine for my infertility. We got the exciting news on the 10th of November that I was pregnant. The good news didn't last long. A little over a week later I found out that I would probably be having another miscarriage. The girls at work are so awesome they got me the most beautiful flowers. Thanks again! As you can see they bloomed and were just amazing. My doctor's office called the U and made me an appointment to see a specialist as soon as they got the results that I was going to miscarry. We went for a consult the first week in December (they got me in way fast). The doctor thinks that we have a great chance of getting pregnant and carrying the baby to term. After 3 1/2 years and 2 miscarriages it is getting frustrating, so hopefully this specialist will have the answer.

Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!

I just needed a good excuse to say that (title). Jared and Buzzy did the Ultimate Loser again. This time Jared finally pulled out the win. Jared had to lose over twenty pounds the last week to do it. Noone thought he could do it, but it is Jared we are talking about. After a lot of dehydrating he lost 24 lbs. Bringing him to the grand total of 64 lbs. and 27.5 in.

Jared's New Office

Jared's boss told him that he wanted him to decorate his new office. Jared decorate, yeah right. So naturally I got volunteered to do it. Hobby Lobby is so much more fun when you can buy anything you want with someone else's money. To bad it wasn't for my house. I have been promising everyone that I would post some pics. Everyone has probably seen it by now, but if not here you go. Don't you love the clock? It wouldn't be an office without the Dwight bobble head.

You Can't Beat 3rd Row (well, not by much)!

We got to go to most of the Aggie football games this year. I wanted to add just a few pics that I took over the season. THANKS JANA!!!
