Happy New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Me and the CORE (my camera sucks)

Our dancing skills the DIP!

The Girls in the tank...so cool!

It was freezing!

We were lucky enough to go to our friend Matt Tillotson's cabin up in Oakley for New Year's Eve! We ate, went snowmobiling, explored the huge cabins, had a dance party, and watched the most amazing display of fireworks! It was a very fun filled night with our friends! We love you all so much! It's crazy that 2008 is over and it's fun to reflect back on all the fun memories throughout the year. Here's to a happy, healthy, succesful year in 2009! Love Jeff and Linz

My cute sister in-law Megan Goodfellow is having a baby boy on February 20th. John and Meg came up for Christmas so we thought it would be the perfect time to throw a family/friend shower for her. We had so much fun planning it! We can't wait to see this handsome little guy! Kristin thanks for all your help! I'm so glad I was able to see you and that I'll ALWAYS get to see you!

This year was mine and Jeff's third Christmas together........how fast time goes by! Ever since I can remember we have had a large dinner party at my parent's home on Christmas Eve. My dad makes his famous spaghetti and meatballs and invisible shrimp scampi. It's always a crowd favorite, we pretty much eat till we're sick! For the past three years Jeff and I have slept over at my parent's on Christmas Eve and then have woken up and opened presents with them on Christmas morning. After presents we headed out to the Hancock's/Hawkins' home (my sister's in-laws) for our ten year tradition where we have a gourmet breakfast in our jammies. So YUMMY! Christmas day is spent with the Snow family. We usually meet up around 1:00 or so and open up presents together. Christmas day is filled with movies, food, and games till the wee hours of the night. We had a fabulous Christmas with our families!

Holiday Fun

Jeff and I

Priscila and Chad

Nikki and Mike (my cute cousin)

Matt and Brittany

We had a little dinner at Chili's then headed out to make our gingerbread houses. After the decorating we played a very INTENSE game of Catch Phrase. Honestly it was a heated game of boys against girls. The girls killed the boys 7-0 the first game! But in the end the boys won, thank heavens cause husbands, boyfriends, and fiance's are so mean when they aren't winning! ha ha ha! Thanks for such a fun night friends and all the trivia about Rocky, I really learned way too much!

It's Official......Britt is joining our FAMILY

The "YES" was sealed with a kiss

I am very late on this post, but since this is my journal I needed to add it. The day before Thanksgiving Matt (Jeff's little brother) proposed to his high school sweetheart Brittany Johnson. Jeff and I were lucky enough to help out with the proposal setting. We are so excited for them and can't wait for the big day which is coming super fast! Britt and Matt we love you both more then you'll ever know! We always have the BEST time with you guys. You are a darling couple and compliment each other so well. It's been so fun watching you guys fall more in love! We are so grateful to have you in our lives!

THE HOLY WAR = DIVORCE FOR A DAY

GO UTES! My poor husband after the LOSS!!


The UTE fans

The Whole Gang - Minus Mike I guess he was a little upset:)

Two years ago on November 22 Jeff proposed and before he asked for my hand he had a little chat with Mr. Rogers. My Dad gave Jeff a few rules that would have to stick if he was going to marry his little girl. Number 2 on the list was that his little girl would FOREVER and ALWAYS be a UTE!! So this year November 22nd marked another monumental place in our history. The UTES demolished byu 48 to 24!! You see, Jeff's Dad played for byu so my hubby (bless his heart) grew up with seasons tickets every year. My Dad played for the U, I graduated from the U being a loyal MUSS ticket holder and FIESTA BOWL goer. Therefore we both grew up with different backgrounds and passions in life. As game time was approaching my Husband was having a little trouble finding an outfit and I repeatedly told him it's not that hard either you're a cougar or a UTE, DECIDE. Soon after the clothes crisis my Husband came flying down the stairs wearing a BLUE shirt singing something about a mighty cougar.....WHAT????? That was it for me, I put on my lucky hat, turned my ring around and that was it we were divorced for the day. The game was AMAZING!!! Thanks Husband for being a good sport, but maybe next time you'll choose the right color!

TWILIGHT

One word....AMAZING! Because of some great friends and sweet connections we were able to rent out a theatre at Jordan Commons to see an early showing of Twilight! We saw it at 7:00 last night and two hours later I was left wanting more! I was completely wrong about Edward, I wasn't so certain about the actor who played him, but after last night I am sold! I thought it followed the book really well too! I want to hear other people's opinions though. If you haven't seen it I suggest you go!!
