Peculiar Holiday

It was Novermber Friday the 13th 2009 when my roommates and I decided to celebrate this blessed day. So at 10:30 at night we climbed into to Tambri's car and headed to Smith's with a mission. We were to buy Items that had to do with day Friday or the number 13. We also aimed for the final price to be within the range of $13.oo.

So at Smith's we got some TGIFridays potato skins and 13 Lindt milk chocolates. and to get the required price we got fixings for root beer floats because the just sounded yummy.

With the total price being $13.21 we crammed back into Tambri's car to head home to have some yummy snacks!!

Natalie had a little hard time getting out but we thought her scissor kicks were great!

So we baked the Potato Skins for 13 minutes to get a great taste.

And had a great celebration of Friday the 13th we have now decided that we will always remeber this day and think often of it when it is the blessed day of

FRIDAY THE 13th!!

Brownie Madness!!

While playing Bang we got a hankering for some of Tambri's to die for brownies so we paused the game and began our quest for the best brownies ever!

We all helped supply the ingredients to make these delicious brownies.

Tambri was the official blend up the everything but the flour while....

Valene and Natalie kept themselves busy posing for the picture while waiting for Tambri to do her part.

Because Natalie was showing off her muscles we decided that she could do the final mixing to complete the brownie batter.

We truly found out her strength when she broke the spatula!

I was the official taste tester of the batter and it definitely met with approval!

Although there are no pictures to show the final project we sure did have alot of fun!

I Spy Dancers!!!

Last Friday we had a roommate date night and we were the Private Eyes. We all had dinner and went to the In statute Women's Association dance which had a spy theme.

I went with Ben and we all had a marvelous time at the dance and then we came back to our apartment and watched Don Knots and Tim Conway in The Private Eyes. It was seriously the greatest night ever!!

A Halloween Story

Once there was a girl who hadn't carved pumkins in like two years because she was off in a far off land being a hermit after 6:00 because Halloween was to dangerous for missionaries to be out. She had a desire to carve pumkins for it had deffinetly been a while so she carved out two!

She also had the desire to dress up as a bum for Halloween with these cool long johns...

But her toy soldier of a friend who was keeping all she owned in the world captive until she put more on.

So she scrounged up some overalls to wear over the awesome long johns so she could be seen with the soldier, Belle, and Rosie the Riveter. They had a marvelous time at a spontaneous Halloween party.

Cutest nieces and nephew ever!!

Stephanie shared some cute pictures of the kids and I love them so much I wanted to blog them.

Talmage just chilling in the stroler. Shuch a hansome boy!

PUmpkin Walk

In Logan they do a pumkin walk during the time before Halloween. So we went with our Family Home Evening Group. Here Natalie, Valene, Tambri and I waited about an hour to even get into where the pumpkins were. But it was worth it. While there we ran into....

R2D2, C3PO , and Yoda,

Sheep friend for Shawn The sheep,

a plethora of M&M's,

The Pioneers,

Even the Keebler factory workers

and we all agreed that Chocolate Theropy deffinetly works.

They even had facilities that we could use.

and a garden of vegtibles with the jolly green giant in case we got hungry.

Prince Phillip even came to wake me from my sleep.

Bob the builder could deffinetly fix it.

and Harry Potter came and performed a patronus to get rid of the scarry dementors from us.

Another thing that happened this August is that my cousin Erin got married to Jared. It was a wonderful day that started at 6:00 with rain clouds threatening to put a damper in the day and me getting up to go do the brides hair. The weather was questionable but when we walked out of the temple the sky was blue and there were no signs of rain. The day was wonderful and alot of fun. At the end of the night before Erin and Jared left they did the traditional boque toss. It was a contest between myself, Alisha, Allison, and I think one other girl. Well the boque went a flying behind Erin's sholder and all i had to do was raise my arms and I caught the boque.

For a few days I put it in water to enjoy after taking a picture of my self with them.

and then I hung them up side down to see how they would dry out.

This is now two months later and i think that hey have dried out pritty nicely.

So now i have them to enjoy as the weather gets colder and winter sets in. All in all I think that the white flower dried to be a little off white but it looks antique esh and I love it.

we will see if the "tradition" of who catches the flowers is the next one to get married.
