The Best Blogger in the World!

Well, as most of you have guessed it, I am the greatest blogger in the whole world.  It truly is amazing how I can possibly fit in all these blog posts in my very busy schedule!  So I'm glad that you keep coming back for more!

Well, to get down to business!  Quite a few things have transpired since my last post (hopefully, since its been over 3 months!)  I sadly have not taken pictures of everything, so bear with me as I attempt to recreate what is the excitement of my life.
Shortly (really the next day) after my trip to Jamaica, my very last semester of my Bachelor's degree began!  YaHOOOOOOOOO!  A few weeks later I started my second tax season as the secretary for NBA tax here in Logan.  Other than that, I've just been living it up.
I decided towards the end of December, because of the incredibly difficult year I had, I would not apply for grad school this year and would take a year off to think about things, find a new life's path and really ultimately let life push me for a minute instead of me running headlong right into the storm.  It has made my life so much better.  :)  I guess I feel a little as though, the path of life suddenly curved and I found myself still heading in my original direction, oblivious to the rocks and undergrowth that were slowing me down.  Finally I have righted my way and my footing feels far more sure than a few months ago.  So in other words, life is great!
Okay, so here is a recap of my adventures.  
(From L to R Jessica P. Karalee, Alisa, Lindsay, me, Sheila, Sara)
 These two pictures are all the girls I played intramural basketball with this year.  We had a blast and did pretty well.  We were way taller than most teams, but we were for the most part also much more out of shape!  It was a blast.
(From L to R Lindsay, Sara, Me, Bri, Jessica M, and Sheila)
 Sheila, me, and Tia went to an AGGIE basketball game.  Did you know USU's fans are ranked 4th loudest in the nation?  Pretty cool eh?
 I got to spend lots of time with these guys the end of February and March!
 This is the only way to get Dolly to do what you want her to do.  But doesn't she look pretty? :)
 Cambree turned 1!
 Rochelle and I at Cambree's party!  I love my sisters!
 Cambree loved those sunglasses!  So cute!
 Brannigan and Ashton decided the best thing to do with a little cake was to shove it in my face!  Brannigan loved it!
So the beginning of March was also my birthday!
 Alright, I know what you're thinking.  What?  I thought... well I guess I can blog about Adam since we've been back together for almost 4 months.  Things are great!  
He once again made my birthday very special.  Took me to a play "Pirates of Penzance".
 He also had a friend's wife make this cool cake for me.  It was really pretty!  And he bought me that gorgeous seafoam green, fossil wallet you see there on the bed.  I love it!!!!
 On March 17th my friend Jannika got married in the San Diego temple!  This is a picture of her bridal shower.  That of course is not Jannika (she's a little young) but there is a funny story to go along with this.  Jannika was given that nice little piece of lingerie. Avery, 5 yrs old, thought it was so pretty and when Jannika set it down to move onto the next gift, Avery said to her mom, "Mom can I have that little dress?"  "No that's Jannika's." to which Avery replied, "But Mom, its too small for her!" So cute!
 Well, I sure do love Jannika, so we drove all night friday night, slept in the WalMart parking lot and got ready in the Starbucks bathroom and made it on time to her sealing in San Diego.  
I've never been to that temple before and it is really pretty!
Tasha, Jannika and I at her reception!
 Over Conference weekend, Adam and I drove out to the north rim of the Salt Lake.  In order to get there, you have to pass Promontory Point, where the two railroads met long, long ago and they drove in a golden spike!
 Here we are at the north rim.  It was so bright and pretty!
 Pictures!
 Can't get too close now!

 Did you know there are aliens EVERYWHERE near the north rim?  Neither me nor the cows were aware of that fact!
 We actually drove all the way over there to see the Spiral Jetty.  It is a huge art construction located within the lake.  A guy named Robert Smithson thought it would be great to create a spiral that might last forever.  Look it up, its pretty cool.  Unfortunately if the lake is high, and it was, you cannot see it.  Its only visible when the water is low. But when the water is low you can even walk around on it!  Pretty cool!
 Don't mind the hair it was really windy!

Well Folks, I think that is a brief, but a catching up on the life and times of Ms. Alycen Fielding!
