Ok so I am slow at this so here is my Christmas Post

Me and Josh didnt go crazy for Christmas this year. We just had a nice quiet morning then went to my moms and opened gifts their.


For New Years we had a few friends over and played poker. They were hear till 4 a.m. so on Thursday I was basically a zombie. All in all I am looking forward to 2009. We are hoping to get Josh through basic training in the Guard and we would like to open our own Cookie Cutters in St. George. So look out family down south cause I think were coming!

Cookie Bandit

So on Tuesday I had to work at 11. When I got in one of my coworkers informed me that some one had dropped off a plate of cookies for me. This was a nice surprise at first. So I looked them over trying to find a card or a note or some clue as to who they were from. I found nothing. My coworker let me know the it was a man that was not too old not too young, not too tall not too short, not too thin not too fat, with dark hair, no facial hair, no glasses and wearing a maroon shirt. So I have called just about every one I know being so super paranoid and I am not finding my cookie bandit. SO you know who you are and... I WANT THE RECIPE! Did i mention they were the best cookies I have ever had, even if they were poison, they were great.

P.S. Roger took 10" off the back of his hair. They left Tuesday morning for TX. they will be greatly missed.

FYI!

So just to let every one know today at 4:00 p.m. I will be cutting at least 10 in. off Rogers Hair! So front row seats are still available on first come first serve basis. If you can't make it I will be posting lots of pic. soon. Plus were having his going away party on Sunday so you can see it then. On a side note my mom now has a blog so go check it out. mikeandsuzettefowlks.blogspot.com

I am thankful for:

FOR THE HUSBAND WHO IS ON THE SOFA BEING A COUCH POTATO, 

BECAUSE HE IS HOME WITH ME AND NOT OUT AT THE BARS.

FOR THE MESS TO CLEAN AFTER A PARTY 

BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE BEEN SURROUNDED BY FRIENDS. 

FOR THE CLOTHES THAT FIT A LITTLE TOO SNUG 

BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT. 

FOR MY SHADOW THAT WATCHES ME WORK 

BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM OUT IN THE SUNSHINE

WINDOWS THAT NEED CLEANING

BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE A HOME 

FOR ALL THE COMPLAINING I HEAR ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT 

BECAUSE IT MEANS WE HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

FOR THE PARKING SPOT I FIND AT THE FAR END OF THE PARKING LOT 

BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM CAPABLE OF WALKING AND I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH TRANSPORTATION . 

FOR MY HUGE HEATING BILL 

BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM WARM. 

FOR THE PILE OF LAUNDRY AND IRONING 

BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE CLOTHES TO WEAR.

FOR WEARINESS AND ACHING MUSCLES AT THE END OF THE DAY 

BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE BEEN CAPABLE OF WORKING HARD.

BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM ALIVE. 

What are you thankful for?

Live well, Laugh often, & Love with all of your heart.

History

 So recently m y mom, dad, Josh & I went on a trip to Mesquite for a National Wild Turkey Retreat. For those of you that don't know that is a Wildlife Charity that we are heavily involved with. While we were their we took a little side trip to Las Vegas to see my Great Great Aunt Mavis. It always so good to visit her because she is so full of history. She was married to my Great Great Uncle Roland. He and my Great Great Uncle Leslie Davis (yes I am named after a boy) were quite the little business men. They started the first bus line in Salt Lake, they homesteaded Alpine Wy., and they opened the army surplus store known as "Allied" (Yes that is were the fence company came from.) Also he helped to homestead parts of Las Vegas. The army gave a set amount of land to soldiers as long as they built a home on it. Well he got the bright idea to ask his fellow army buddies to give him part of their land in exchange he would go down to L.V. and set it all up. So attached are some of the pic. I took while I was their. The first is the street that Les cut himself and named.

This is the park that is named after him it is right done the street from the old house.

Sorry for the history Lesson. I just love looking in to the past and the stories our elders.

My New Ride!

OK so about 6 months ago I really got in to this hole "going GREEN" thing. So I have been better about recycling, using my reusable grocery bags, replacing my burnt out bulbs with energy star light bulbs and being really cautious about the temp in my house (in case you were wondering 70 in the winter and 75 in the summer). But I have also been looking in to buying a new car. After looking and doing my research I found the one I want. I am going to be getting the new Smart Car. It will be a red convertible with tan interior.

Unfortunately in order to get one I have to put $99 down and then wait 18 months before I can get one. So I now only have a year left. Yeah! I just wanted to share this with you. So here are some tricked out Smart Cars.

Oh yeah the last one is a car in a vending machine!
