Just needing to sum up 2012 since my last post. Here are a few of the fun things we've been up to. Of course there is our awesome football season, but that deserves it's own post. So that is soon to come.
My brother, Tanner, and his wife went through the Logan Temple. It was a wonderful day and it was great to see some of the Richins family that I haven't seen in years.
Back: Curtis and Michelle Richins, Dave and Janet Treadaway, My mom and Dave, Carly and Danny Seamons, Katelyn's Parents, Kelli and BJ Davis, Me and Jason, John (Katelyn's bro) and his wife (?). Front: Grandpa Richins, Katelyn and Tanner.
My mom's friend puts on an awesome haunted house in her backyard every year. Payment is a can of food for the food bank. She even had a G-rated course. But mom and I were brave and took the PG-13 course. I'll be honest, it was pretty scary! We actually went through it twice, it was THAT good. I filmed it, but unfortunately you can't see anything, only hearing the screams of young children. Ha ha! Can't wait to go again next year!
My sister moved to Grand Junction, Colorado. Mom and I went to visit her for a weekend. We built our first snowman of the season in Spanish Fork with things from the car. Mom's coat hood, airfreshners for arms, tootsie rolls for eyes... Yeah, we're creative. We went to the Colorado National Monument Park. Which was pretty nifty, except the fact that it was freezing cold!
Feeling crafty! Made my mom a turkey so she had at least one Thanksgiving decoration. A couple name boards for some new babes. A strawberry shortcake-cake for my friend's little girl's 2nd birthday.

A couple of our good friends, Brent and Rachel, treated us to a Jazz game VIP -style! We were fed before the game, and at half time. We were 6 rows from the court (even though our tickets said row 2) but we were still on the cushy seats! It was great! And the Jazz won!
This is why I hate having a stranger take our picture....
Because I really wanted the back of some dude's head!
The Christmas Card:
And this picture was my brother's birthday gift to me. Ain't he thoughtful? :)
He was in China for Christmas with his girlfriend and her family, and it was cold so they had to find something for him to wear to keep warm. Apparently, all they could find was her mom's pj's. I think he makes them look good. :)
