Car Bouquet!

A friend of mine had back surgery and since it was a boy I didnt want to give him flowers because that really isnt a manly get well gift! Anyways, my mom came up with the "Car Bouquet"! It was pretty easy to make once i got the cars to stick to the sticks! All you need is a couple toy cars, a pot of some sort, wooden sticks, pipe cleaners, a foam ball, a hot glue gun, and your choice of filling! I used left over easter grass! I think it turned out pretty dang awesome!

Fun with the family!

Over Memorial day weekend! The family and I had a picnic on the desert! We drove to the cedar mountain picnic area! on the way there we about took out a moo cow! We then drove to the dead end and got out and walked around and took a few pictures then we turned around and went back to the picnic area and unloaded the stuff! It was a little rainy so it took the guys a little while to build the fire cause all of our wood was wet! Once the fire was started we quickly roasted our hot dogs before it died! It didnt last very long! We then loaded up and headed to the overlook and took a few more pictures! We then loaded up once more and headed back! On the way back we about took out another moo cow....it was a little bit frightening for me!

Mopars at the strip

In March we took our yearly Vegas trip to Mopars at the strip! The drive from Logan to Vegas sucked but other than that it was a great weekend! We left on a thursday and drove to Mesquite and then my mom, Whitney and I got up bright and early on friday and headed to Vegas to help register cars! Chip Foose from the TV series "Over Haulin" was a special guest this year so we got autographs and a picture with him! We left the speedway at about 5:30 and went to the hotel and got ready for dinner! We went to "Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville" and it was really fun! they have little boat booths that you eat in and they have people walking around on stilts and they have a little show that involves a valcano! After we ate we went back to the hotel since we had to be back out to the Speedway the next morning! We finished registering cars and then we went and watched my Uncle Clayton race in the 1/4 mile drags! After this me, my mom , and Whitney hit the outlet mall! After shopping we met back up with everyone else and headed to dinner! After dinner we headed to the Canery (the host hotel for Mopars at the Strip) they were having an oldies concert with former members of bands like boston and lynrd skynrd and a few others! Whitney and I then got the party started! We went and stood up front and started dancing and cheering and then everyone came and they started crowding us out, so Whit and I decided to stand in front of the security rail and almost got kicked out of the concert for it(we got yelled at by the security guard)! The singer from lynrd skynrd and a guitarist really liked whit and i and they kept coming and singing to us, the guitarist decided to give out some guitar picks and all these people were reaching for them and he kept pulling them away from them because he wanted me, whitney and my mom to have them, so I finally got a hold of them! After the concert we did a little gambling and then went back and went to bed! On sunday we got up and had breakfast and headed back home! This post is a little late but it was a great weekend and I had to wait til I went home to get the pictures because they were on my dads camera!

First Attempt at cake making....

Whitney and I decided we were going to learn how to decorate cakes! We have thought about taking a cake making class at michaels several times but decided it cost too much! We then decided to just try it and see what happens! We want to make a cake for my grandmas 70th birthday bash so that is another reason why we decided to try! So this is the finished product and I think it turned out pretty good for our first attempt!

I finally decided to get a blog!

I have officially became a blogger! Who knows if I will really blog that much or not, but we will see!
