Toffee Bars

2011-11-17T15:38:00.000-08:00

Mmmmm.... These are mighty tasty treats! Very simple and fast too! I also found this little gem too, that basically describes my life, if only it would include sister's too.

Picnic Brownies

2011-11-13T13:50:00.000-08:00

Today I made Picnic Brownies. They are sooo tasty! They are definitely one of my new favorites and they were easy to make too.

Recipes

2011-10-24T16:57:00.000-07:00

So, Shelley requested the recipe for the Tres Leches cake and the truffles, which by the way can be made into whatever you would like.
The Tres Leches cake recipe was from the Pioneer Woman Cooks website, so here's the link.
http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2009/09/tres-leches-cake/

The recipe for the truffles is as follows:
1 package of oreos, crushed
1 package of cream cheese, softened
Then, for the chocolate you can either use two bags of white chocolate chips or 2 pkgs of semi-sweet baking chocolate squares.
You then combine 3/4 of the oreos and the cream cheese, roll them into half inch balls and dip them in the chocolate. Once they have been dipped thoroughly put them onto a baking pan covered with wax paper and let them dry. You can then either sprinkle them with the leftover oreo or decorate them some other way.

"Holy Ghost" Oreo Truffles and Tres Leches Cake

2011-10-11T10:34:00.000-07:00

I made little "Holy Ghose" oreo tuffles for the girls I visit teach. I thought they turned out very cute and very yummy. They were very easy to make too, and then I wrapped them up and found a cute little poem on the internet about the holy ghost and halloween.

Miranda requested Tres Leches cake for her birthday so I made it on Thursday since I had to go up north on Friday and wouldn't be here for her birthday on Saturday. It was delicious!

New Job!

2011-09-24T10:08:00.000-07:00

I finally got a job! It's at the Cedar City Comfort Inn. Despite the fact that I work mornings at 5:30, it is a job. I hope to find a different job soon with better hours, but this will have to do for a little while. There's not much going on in Cedar City as of late. Hopefully we'll be more entertaining next time.

First Day of College!

2011-08-22T13:58:00.000-07:00

Today was my first day of classes at SUU. I only had 3 classes because my Sociology class was cancelled for the day. It was definitely weird walking across campus to each class, but SUU has a beautiful campus so it's a pretty walk. It's also different having to search for a parking spot just to go to school. We all know Emery High has a plethora of parking spaces available. Altogether, I think I'm going to like SUU and have a fun time in Cedar City.

Caramel Apples

2011-08-09T20:33:00.000-07:00

Today we made White Chocolate Cinnamon Caramel Apples.. They were really good. The girl in the picture is Jessica. She is the friend that I do all of my baking with. Tonight was our last night to bake before we both are gone.

Baking

2011-08-07T16:34:00.000-07:00

A friend and I are determined to open up our own baker when we're done with college, so every Tuesday we bake something different. Usually it's cupcakes, but this week we made no-bake cookies, which doesn't really count as baking, but it's still a lovely treat. I alone have been baking something new at least once a week. This week I made two different things. First, I made Eclairs with vanilla pastry cream and chocolate drizzled over the top. Second, I made Banana Layer Cake with Cream Cheese frosting. They were both mighty tasty. Some other things that I have made are Peanut Butter cupcakes with Chocolate frosting and a reese's on top, S'more Cookies, Chocolate Reese's cupcakes with Peanut Butter frosting, and Oreo cupcakes with cream cheese frosting.

These are the finished Eclairs. They look like cream puffs, but I used the eclair recipe. I didn't have the right tip for the icing bag so I just plopped the dough on the pan and hoped it would work. I guess it did!

This is the Banana Layer Cake. I really like the cream cheese frosting. As for the cake, I haven't tried it yet, but I'm assuming it's good because my dad and Greg are just finishing up their second pieces.

Skydiving

2011-07-25T18:57:00.000-07:00

Well, most of you know that I went skydiving back in June. I guess I should've done a blog then, but alas, I have procrastinated once again. I only have pictures of us on the ground because it was going to cost an extra 90 dollars to buy pictures and video. Here are just a few pictures of the adventure. I definitely want to go again someday!

Before we boarded the plane.

All suited up!!

Signing our lives away (otherwise known as insurance waivers).

Back on the ground safely!

Getting dressed.

Kittens!

2011-05-20T17:16:00.000-07:00

A couple of months ago we "adopted" a cat, now named Bianca, who over the months got fatter and fatter and we quickly discovered she was prego. One day she suddenly became the Biggest Loser and got super skinny, so putting two and two together we figured that she had had the kittens. Well, today as dad was going to work he started backing out and heard some faint "meows" he got out of his truck and running across the road was Bianca with a little orange kitten. He brought it inside and we played with it for a little while and dad started leaving again (or so we thought) and then came running in a few minutes later with two more kittens and told us that there were more across the street! We ran over and found three more kittens! Six kittens (mom says we can't keep them, but we all know she has a soft heart for kittens) in all! They're so cute!

A Day in the Life

2011-03-26T14:00:00.000-07:00

Just some fun with iPhoto.

Snow...

2011-02-19T10:51:00.000-08:00

Well, just when you think spring is coming a snow storm hits. Not that I don't love snow, but there's a point when you just want it to be gone. Oh well, it provides for some beautiful pictures.

Swimming!

2011-01-17T20:26:00.000-08:00

It's been a loooooong time since I did a blog! Even though I've been extremely busy there wasn't really anything blog worthy. Anyways, swimming season is almost over and I realized I hadn't done a blog about it. Our region meet is on Saturday so I'm hoping we can do ok and my shoulder won't give me too many problems.
So, this year I was so excited to start swimming. I am the Co-Captain of the girls team and the season has been quite successful for only our second year. At this point I'm just glad that it's almost done. 5 1/2 months is a very long season and I'm getting tired of swimming everyday. We have many amazing swimmers though. There are only two seniors on the team and they are both girls. It's probably better that there are so many younger kids because then we'll have a good team for many years to come. Well, I'll just put up a few pictures now...

Normal arm.... and shemale arm.

What Does This Mean?

2010-07-29T17:33:00.000-07:00

We had a little rainstorm today and I saw a rainbow out the window. Banner started saying "double rainbow, double rainbow"! I thought she was just making fun of the Double Rainbow youtube video, but it actually was a double rainbow. Imagine that.

My Cake Decorating Skills

2010-07-08T16:58:00.001-07:00

I've been watching alot of cake decorating shows on t.v. lately ,and got the urge to bake a cake today.
This is the fondant being kneaded. The fondant was relatively easy. I just found the recipe on the Wilton cake site. I used the Marshmallow Rolled Fondant because it had less ingredients.

This is the fondant after being colored.

I was watching 'Amazing Wedding Cakes',and they had 'marbled' the fondant so I decided to try it. I think it turned out pretty well.. Here's a star with the marbled fondant.

Here is the finished product. For my first 'real' cake it turned out ok I guess.

Girls' State

2010-06-17T12:30:00.000-07:00

I got back from Girls' State on Saturday. It was a good experience, but I was glad to come home. I had two great roommates, and one crazy one. She yelled at me a few times, and then the last day said that I was her favorite person there. She was odd. Well, anyway, I met alot of really great girls. My found out that my camera was broken after I got down there so I didn't get any pictures during the week, but my mom took pictures at the graduation. Here are just a few. The girl with the tissue up her nose got a bloody nose by the way. Haha.

Summer Job!

2010-05-16T19:25:00.001-07:00

So, I got a job at the pool this summer. I will be lifeguarding. I'm so excited! It pays pretty good for a high schoolers job in Emery County. I'll have enough money to travel if I want to this summer, but I also will have to ask for time off, and I'm not sure how much I'll be able to take off. Hopefully I'll be able to go to SLC, and also Cedar for a trip. That is if my parents will let me drive up by myself considering my past experiences with the law. Well, anyway life in Orangeville is pretty much the same. Banner and I go down to Liz and Dennis' on Sunday's, and I go most of the other days for lunch. I'm so excited that we only have two more weeks of school! I'm getting really excited for summer, especially since last year I was basically on house arrest for most of it. This year will most definitely be better than last year. I hope all of you are doing well and having fun looking forward to summer like me! Here are some pictures I took around our yard. I've really been into photography lately.

Favorite School Pictures

2010-04-28T21:22:00.003-07:00

These are some of my favorite school pictures. They're either ones that made me laugh, or they're just because I thought they were cute.

I also came across these little gems while looking for pictures. They're the famous pictures Whitney and Les drew after Miranda got stitches.

Ceremonial Dying of Eggs

2010-04-03T17:16:00.000-07:00

We watched conference this morning and then decided to get busy on dying the eggs. We invited Liz and Dennis up to join in the festivities. These are the products of our labor, and the dying process.

Altogether, it was a successful dying of eggs.

Jazz Game!!!

2010-03-23T20:52:00.000-07:00

Many of you know that I went up to the Jazz game on Monday against the Celtics. It was my first Jazz game, and it was amazing. I loved it! We had some pretty crazy times as you might imagine with four teenage girls. Anyway, before going to the game we went and shopped at the gateway. We shopped for a little while, and then decided to walk over to the Delta Center (Energy Solutions Arena). On our way, we saw a huge crowd of people so we asked the security guards what was going on. They replied, "waiting for autographs". We didn't think much about it so we continued on our way, but decided to turn around to see who might pull up. Just as we got back to the crowd a 2010 black Camaro with red stripes pulls up so my friend Taylor Mann (who is obsessed with the Jazz)and I ran over to the window to see who it was... To our surprise

Yes! Deron Williams! My favorite Jazz player. I never thought that I would meet D Will, but I have now. My friend Taylor Mann is completely obsessed with Deron Williams, and has all sorts of his apparel, and etc. In this picture he had just signed her D Will shoes and was handing them back to her. Afterwards, she collapsed on the grass, and had to regain her leg strength. Haha. After, D Will many others showed up including Andre Kirilenko, CJ Miles, and the whole Celtics bus. Rajon Rondo actually waved to me!! Right before we left the next person to show up was...

Jerry Sloan!! My favorite coach. Although we didn't get his autograph I was pretty close to him. He was in a hurry so he couldn't stay very long, but I was able to snap this picture.

Now, to the actual game. Well, not quite this is the warm ups. My second favorite Jazz player, and future husband came out and started stretching. I couldn't get really close, but I did get a few pictures.

No, not the mean security guard, but Kyle Korver!! The security at this place was pretty harsh. Well, although I didn't get his autograph Taylor Mann did, and he missed out on the opportunity to meet his future wife. His loss..
I know most of you could care less about the Celtics, but I actually like them, and the girl who took us (Mandy Langston) is a big fan. So, I got some pictures of them warming up also.

My favorite on the Celtics would have to be Rajon Rondo. He's awesome even though he didn't have the best game last night. Oh well.
We had pretty good seats. We were in the last row of the lower bowl. It was a great view, although we had some annoying people in front of us who I don't think had ever watched a basketball game before, but were trying to show off to their girlfriends, or wives. They yelled after every call that it was "crap". I almost strangled someone. Well, here's our view.
It was altogether a very fun weekend. We hope to make it a tradition. :)

State Swim

2010-02-01T16:36:00.000-08:00

So, last night I got a call from my swim coach saying that our relay team qualified for the state swim meet. We are ranked 23 out of 24, but hey it's our first year, so I'm proud of us. Anyway, the meet will be on Friday at BYU. My race is at 7 that evening if anyone would like to come!

Spring!

2010-01-11T15:05:00.000-08:00

I am so ready for spring to come! It seems as though winter always drags by, and although I love winter at first I eventually become sick of the cold and icky snow. Now, I know spring isn't for a little while, but for some reason it seems like it's just right around the corner this year. Exciting! On another note, the end of second term is on Friday. It doesn't seem like we're halfway through the year yet, and in another year I'll be graduating! Recently I've had to start deciding things to do with my future, and I'm worrying about scholarships, and grades. It's all quite overwhelming. I'm sure next year will be ten times as stressful. Oh well! I will prevail! I have my last two swim meets coming up soon. It's weird to think that I'm on the swim team because I never was the best swimmer. Well, I thought I'd finish off the blog by saying 5 things about spring that I love, and then you guys can do the same on your blogs.

5 Things
1. Warmer weather

2. Color coming back to the flowers and trees.

3. School getting closer to ending.

4. Smells of all the different plants.

5. Being able to run outside again and not freeze!

Christmas

2009-12-03T14:45:00.000-08:00

In honor of Christmas I decided that I would look up some different interesting things about this lovely holiday. I found a website that told how you say "Merry Christmas" in many different languages. Here are a few of my favorite:

Frisian: Noflike Krystdagen en in protte Lok en Seine yn it Nije Jier!

Iroquois: Ojenyunyat Sungwiyadeson honungradon nagwutut. Ojenyunyat osrasay.

Ethiopian: (Amharic) Melkin Yelidet Beaal
(For Shelley and Alan)
Slovene: Vesele Bozicne Praznike Srecno Novo Leto or Vesel Bozic in srecno Novo leto.

Next, I looked up different traditions. This one from Greece I thought was kind of interesting.

St. Nicholas is important in Greece as the patron saint of sailors. According to Greek tradition, his clothes are drenched with brine, his beard drips with seawater, and his face is covered with perspiration because he has been working hard against the waves to reach sinking ships and rescue them from the angry sea. Greek ships never leave port without some sort of St. Nicholas icon on board.There is a tradition kallikantzeri, where the mischievous goblins appear from the earth during the 12 days of Christmas.

This one was also kind of interesting.In Bangladesh formerly known as East Pakistan, the Christian village men would cut down scores of banana trees and replant them in pairs along the paths to churches and outside their homes. They would then bend over the huge leaves of the banana trees to form an arch, they would then make small holes in the bamboo poles, fill them with oil and tie them across the arches. When the oil is lit, the way to the church is lit up bright enough for all to see.

I like looking up different traditions because it was one of my favorite things to do in elementary to learn about the different Christmas' around the world.

Prom Dress

2009-10-26T15:36:00.001-07:00

Whitney found this dress on the internet, and I really liked it. Shelley, I wasn't sure if you still have time to make a dress so let me know. Anyway, let me know what you think of it. Also, I thought that was a funny Halloween costume.

Hello Dolly

2009-10-24T13:03:00.000-07:00

Well, I found out the date for my Hello Dolly play. It is on November 19, 20, and 21.
I also am doing my Halloween play this next weekend. It's going to be a busy week. So anyway, if you would like to come just let me know and I will buy tickets for you.

Long Time No Blog!

2009-10-10T15:13:00.000-07:00

Wow. Alot of things have happened since I blogged last. Well, for starters, I started and then quit Cross Country so that I could be on the swim team. I was terrible when I started. I thought that I knew how to swim from my swim classes when I was younger, but I had no idea what was in store for me at the first practice. I had the breathing, and technic ALL wrong! So, that first week was real fun. I am much better now. My swim coach Marilyn Collard tells me everyday how much I am improving with each practice. I still am terrible at the Butterfly stroke, and Marilyn laughs at me everytime I try to do it. My favorite strokes are the breaststroke and the backstroke. I think I like them because I get to breathe alot. Our first meet is on November 11. I'm pretty excited although I will probably still be needing work on my technic. Well, that's all for swimming.
As for Homecoming, I had a lot of fun. I only have one picture so that will have to do. The theme was "I Wanna Rock". That's why my date and I are holding blow up guitars. We won our Homecoming game against Richfield. It was nice to win after the devastating loss last year. The players were very excited.

On another note, I love fall so I have been taking some pictures. I think that fall is the prettiest time of the the year because there are so many colors. Fall is definitely my favorite season, although I love each season for different reasons. I am very excited for Halloween. I am thinking about having a Halloween party with my friends. I always remember Miranda and Whitney having their Halloween parties and I always wanted to be a part of the fun and games, but always got shewed away.

Severe Workout

2009-08-29T09:54:00.000-07:00

A few days ago Banner and I slept at Liz and Dennis' house. In the morning we did a workout tape with Lizzy. It gave inspiration to make our own video, and after some technical difficulties we finally got it up. Enjoy!

On another note, we've started school. It doesn't seem like it is time already, but oh well! It was a crazy week. I think I had more homework this week than any other school years combined. I also started X-Country against my will. I am not a fan of it, but I'm going to keep going so that I can get in shape for track. Anyways, that's all I have for now, so tell me how you like the video!

Prom Dress

2009-06-28T13:31:00.001-07:00

So, I've been looking for different dress designs, but I'm not really sure what I want so I found a few that I kind of like. Tell me what you think.By the way they will have sleeves... Also, enjoy the Michael Jackson music!! I just can't believe that he died.

Just A Little Catching Up

2009-05-04T16:37:00.000-07:00

So, I noticed today that I hadn't done a new blog in over 2 months so although I don't have anything too exciting I thought I'd still do a new blog. Recently I read The Secret Life of Bees. It was a good book and I recommend all of you who haven't read it to do so.
Mostly, I'm just trying to deal with the last three weeks of school and finishing the track season. I have the region track meet on Thursday at Salem Hills, and hope that I do well. We are testing alot in school and I'm getting kind of stressed out, but I just tell myself that it's almost over for the year! I'm very excited for summer.
On Sunday afternoon Banner and I were watching a movie and I thought I'd put some funny quotes on my blog and see if anyone can guess what the movie is. So here are the quotes.

1."Please don't say were not going to take the car home. Please don't say were not going to take the car home. Please don't say were not going to take the car home." "If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away?"

2."I did not achieve this position in life by having some snot-nosed punk leave my cheese out in the wind."

3."Oh, __. You just sounded like Dirty Harry just then."

4."Yeah, that's right, just, uh, roll her old bones on over here, and I'll dig up your daughter. You know that's school policy."

These are some of the funny ones that I remember... I think that Sara should get the movie, but we'll have to see.

Also, I had the Sadie Hawkins dance, it was pretty fun. So here's a picture of me my two friends and our dates.

People Who Understand Me

Homecoming!

2008-09-23T18:09:00.000-07:00

It's been a long time since I blogged! I think just over a month so I took some pictures of Homecoming so I would have something to blog about.
Homecoming was on Friday and unfortunately we lost to Uintah in overtime 20-21. It was a very good game. Our kicker was blaming himself the whole night because he didn't get a single field goal. It was pretty sad. Anyways, here are some pictures.

This is the lovely Spartans banner. At half time all the students run out on the field and the football team runs through the banner and the middle of the students.

Kick-off

And of course the lovely Spartan mascot!

Renovations

2008-07-31T09:46:00.000-07:00

Many of you may know that we are re-doing our kitchen. Well, while tearing out one of the walls we found little signs that we had stuck on the door that you could slide open and closed in the kitchen. The signs were ones that we had made while we were playing restaurant so many times. It was pretty funny finding all of the little signs like Cala de Tenny's restaurant, or welcome to Applebee's. I got a few pictures of them so i'll post them.

Week of Fun!!

Youth Conference

2008-06-29T13:31:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was Youth Conference. It was so much fun! First we went to Joe's Valley and learned a few lessons. AFter that we ate lunch and then we went and played in the water. I got to go Jet Skiing and wakeboarding! Jet skiing was so much fun, we only tipped over once! I can't say much about my wakeboarding since the longest I stayed on was probably about 10 seconds and I didn't even stand up. It's alot harder than it looks. We also went tubing. It reminds me of the last time at the lake. That was a disaster!! Sorry I didn't get any pictures of me doing the fun activities. I forgot to get my camera out.

Sno Shack!

2008-06-18T20:14:00.000-07:00

Lately, my days consist of going to the Sno Shack and hanging out with my friend who works there. Other things I do during the day are mowing the lawn, and sometimes I go out and clean at the ranch too.

Here is a lovely picture of the hideous shirt I have to wear when I am cleaning in front of the guests at the ranch. I got a small and it still drowns me. I feel like a sailor when I wear it.

Girl's Camp

2008-06-10T12:47:00.000-07:00

Yesterday we got all of our stuff packed for girls camp and took it to our leaders house to put in her trailer. I'm still not that excited. I'm not a big fan of camping, I like to have my shower and bed and electronics right where I can use them whenever I need. I hope Morgan's girls camp went okay.

Driving

Vacation in Salt Lake

2008-05-27T22:28:00.000-07:00

For my first day in Salt Lake we had a lot of fun. First we went to Josh and Stacy's and helped take care of the kids then we came back to Sara's and watched the Very Brady Sequel. That Greg is so super neato! I couldn't help but put this video on my blog. Hope you enjoy!

2008-04-04T15:36:00.001-07:00

Sorry that I have not been posting lately. I have been very busy with track. It has been going quite well actually. I had a track meet on Tuesday at Delta. It was very warm, suprisingly.
It is also my last term of the 9th grade so I am trying to get everything caught up so I will get a 4.0 this term. If I don't post in awhile now you will know why.

Track is Starting!

2008-03-09T20:43:00.000-07:00

Well track starts tomorrow. I will finally have something to do with my time. Lately it's been kind of boring. I haven't been doing much. I mostly watch TV or play on the computer. It seems like everyone else has been doing some pretty fun things. Solo and Ensemble is coming up on Friday, I am pretty nervous especially since I have to sing a solo. Luckily Lizzy has been helping me straighten out the kinks in it. Piano festival was yesterday I pretty much bombed all of the tests. I even had to play my piece two times through because the judges got so lost. It was pretty funny, but luckily it was just practice for Friday.

First Post in a While

2008-03-02T18:12:00.000-08:00

Okay I know I haven't been keeping up with my blog but I am going to try and put up a new post at least once a week. I can't guarantee anything but I will try. My life has been pretty boring since basketball ended but I am excited to get track started soon. It will feel good to get some exercise back into my routine.
