Wow! We have been so busy the past couple of months!! I decided to take the kids and go visit family for a month while Troy stayed here, studied and took boards, started rotations, and worked. It was a great month, we had lots of fun with family, but I was SO happy to see Troy again after a month of being away. It made me realize even more how much I really really love him and how wonderful he is as a Dad and a husband.
My little brother was so awesome and flew out to Des Moines, stayed for a couple nights and then helped me drive the super long drive from here to Wyoming. We left our apartment at 5:30 in the morning and made it to my parents house at 10:30 at night. Whew, what a long day. The kids actually did really well, and I just have to say how grateful I am that we have a portable DVD player. Thanks Jared!
We had a couple late night Wii competitions.

We also took Jared to the Incredible Pizza place to ride go karts and play mini golf and
walked around the lake by our mall.
We love going there because the kids love to bring bread and feed the hundreds of fish that come eat the little pieces.
Mason liked having the fish nibble on his fingers.
We had such a good time playing with Grandmas and Grandpas, and Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins.
The kids love playing in Grandpa and Grandma Fowler's yard.

I loved being able to meet my two new nephews.
I wish we could have stayed long enough to meet my new niece Evalyn McDonald who was born only a week after we left!

The kids loved seeing this guy. They missed their Uncle Jared.
Welcome home Elder Fowler!It was fun to be home for when Cody came home from his two year mission in Slovenia.
We have missed him.
Troy even got to talk to and see his little brother using skype on the phone and ipod.
I took this picture at the perfect moment.
Mason wasn't sure what to think about his Uncle at first but soon after warmed up to him and always wanted Cody to hold him.
Kinzie waited faithfully for the two years Cody was gone.
And now they are engaged and are getting married on September 3.
We have always loved this girl and are so happy she will be part of our family.
Plus, she has horses so she is pretty much perfect in Katelyn and Kylie's eyes.
We always have fun going over to pet the horses.

Mason loved getting pulled around on Cody's big suitcase!

Great photos Carrie. Thanks, Dad
I am so mad at myself for not checking your blog more often. I wish I would have known you were home. I would have loved to see you & your sweet family. Where will you be going in 9 1/2 months? Kevin Graduates in May & I'm so excited. We'll go where ever we can get a job, but hoping to stay west. You have the cutest sweetest family. I really miss you.
