Ancient History
I was going through some way old posts on Jenny's blog and found some fun pictures of Matt and I that I did not have. I have to post them so they are not lost forever...
*These are in no particular order
Christmas 2012
Matt has earned "favorite uncle" title because he is always the guy sharing treats with the kids. Christmas was no different! Harrison was eating out of his hand- literally!
Matt being a little boy on Christmas eve! He had to set up his duck/turkey blind in the kitchen and get in it before he was satisfied!
July 2009- Matt and I were engaged and went to Logan for fireworks on the fourth of July!
August 2009- This is the only picture from our honeymoon! I did not take a camera, and Jenny snapped this when we were getting ready to go home after our week on the lake!
August 15, 2009- Claire was not in a picture taking mood this day, but we ended up getting some darling pictures with her in them! I can't believe she was ever so small!
Thanksgiving 2012- The boys had to snuggle up to watch some YouTube videos. They are definitely not uncomfortable around each other!
Thanksgiving 2010- Please don't let me cut my hair short again!
July 2009- The last bridal shower for a Fischer wife was thrown for me! We had chocolate waffles and toppings! Yum!

Bowling
This weekend, Matt and I went to dinner with Jenny, Claire and Harrison while Brad and Randy were in Salt Lake for the Jazz game for Brad's birthday. After dinner, we met Todd, Melissa, and Wyatt at the Fun Park's bowling alley for some bowling. It has been a while since we really got out and did anything (I mean besides hanging out at Randy and Jenny's house) so I had to take some pics to document the evening:
Uncle Matt and Claire snuggling. Melissa asked Claire who her favorite uncle was and she said, "Matt." Melissa asked who Claire's favorite aunt was and she said, "Kendwa." I guess I'll have to keep working at it.
Crazy eyes!
Claire was a great bowler! She had her good luck routine, and even did a little dancing when she did a good job! *Sorry for the poor quality of my videos. I guess they seemed good while we were at the bowling alley because of the messed up lighting!
Harrison was so cute while he was bowling. He would push the ball off the rack and then turn around and clap for himself. He had to make sure we were all watching and cheering for him!
Can you tell it's winter? Matt is growing his hair out for warmth (ok, not for warmth, but he is too lazy to get a haircut) and I am insanely white!
Todd helping Wyatt ruin Melissa's awesome bowling score!

Valentine's Day 2013
This year for Valentine's day, I was planning on getting up early to set up my present for Matt to find when he woke up. The gift idea came because of a conversation that Matt had with Jed and Todd at work. In an effort to "advise" Jed on buying Valentine's gifts, Matt and Todd told Jed to spend money on things that he didn't want to as a gift to his wife, such as flowers, chocolate, go to a movie you don't want to see, eat dinner at a restaurant you don't like, etc. So I decided that instead of going to our annual Valentine's day chick movie, I would surprise Matt and we would go to an Aggie basketball game. Well when I get up to set up my present, this is what I see:
On a side note, my new school has a Valentine's day tradition, that instead of having parties, we have "tea" AKA cake and punch and all the kids get dressed up and we teach them about etiquette. This year I wasn't really prepared, but we ended up having a good time. We talked about manners and etiquette, and I assigned a boy to escort a girl around the school throughout the day. At first the kids thought this was a crazy idea, but they really got into it as the day went on. They were all dressed up in their nicest clothes and were so cute! I had one boy who didn't have any cake. I asked him why he didn't get any cake and he said, "My partner, Gracie, can't have any cake, so I'm not going to have any either." So cute! Gracie is allergic to eggs and can't have cake, and what a sweet little boy to try not to make her uncomfortable!
Matt wins best husband award. Not only did he get me flowers (he told me that he made the WalMart florist go to the back to get the nicest bunch), he also got me chocolate (Dove hearts), and a Barnes and Noble gift card, and wrote me a sweet note. He told me in his note that it showed how much he loves me that he got me books for Valentine's day. haha. After work, we went to the basketball game and had a blast. This is our fifth year celebrating Valentine's day, and it just keeps getting better every year.
Matt, I love you so much and can't imagine my life without you in it!
After tea, we went up to the gym to learn the Virginia Reel. We teach Utah history in fourth grade, and this is also a fourth grade tradition. Again, the kids were not that excited, but as you can see from the video, they totally got into it!
We passed out Valentines at the end of the day and all in all, the kids and I had a very fun day.
Kailee Rae Fischer
A new fisch in the family!
February 11, 2013
37 weeks

5 pounds 14 ounces

On February 11, Lance and Kendra brought their beautiful daughter, Kailee, to the world. We are so excited for them, and so excited to have a new little baby in the family! I got off work a little early and drove down with Randy and Jenny to see the new family. I couldn't believe how tiny this little girl is! She looks so much like Kendra, but when she uncurls those legs you see long Lance there too! Matt and I went down to visit them later that week and got to spend a few hours hanging out with Lance and Kendra and Kailee. Can't wait for more opportunities to spend time with this darling girl!
Happiness
Everyone knows that I have a minor obsession with books. Okay, a MAJOR obsession. So it definitely makes me happy to get an order of books! As Phil Robertson would say, "Happy, happy, happy."
