Pumpkins, Witches, and Pirates...Oh My!!!

Halloween is one of the Fowers favorite times of year . Mack and I have been busy doing everything spooky we can get our hands on and dragging Dad around with us. One of our highlight moments was our Haunted Mansion Gingerbread House....

Pictured here with the proud crafter...The roof kept caving in so I got the genious idea to put a BBQ skewer through it to hold it together and managed to stab myself in the hand and break the roof in half. So Mack being the creative thinker he is, decided that the house caught on fire, so we turned the roof into a graveyeard. So this was his Masterpiece that he decorated all by himself!!!

The Brandons doing a little carving!!!


My personal favorite Halloween Tradition...The witches at Gardner's Village

Wedding time is almost here...

My Sister Morgan is getting married in May and we hosted a little 80's Tea Party before dress fittings to kick of the Big Day. It was hilarious. We dressed up, had a little lunch, and laughed a lot! The Beautiful Bride (in the crown I made her).

Me with what I'll look like when I'm 90...

The Bride, mother of the Bride, and Bridesmaids minus a few.

Night Out With The Family...

Mack has been counting down the days until Toy Story came to the Theatres in 3D...The day finally came...Popcorn, Icee Drinks, Cotton Candy, Cokes, 4 trips to the potty! We only made it through Toy Story 1, but it was well worth it. We got to see the trailer for Toy Story 3 where Andy goes to College (Mack is so excited that Andy is going to be with Uncle Parker at College...) We had so much fun that Mack was sick all night from all of the junk he ate!!!!Good Times!!!

Sweet Shades!!!

Fall Is Here...

We took a short drive up the Canyon today to check out the fall colors. It's not quite in full bloom yet, but things are definitely starting to change! I really have come to appreciate all the changes that come with living here. Seasons do bring a time to reflect and make changes to do better...Mack was so excited, but disappointed there was no snow. I'm sure it will be here in no time!
