Let there Be Cake!


I saw this cake and it is so cute and looks so easy to make. I need to make one!

Can't Believe I forgot!




I think I had the best new years ever. Brian and I went down on the Thursday after Christmas to Vegas. We stayed with his brother Chad and his wife Suzie and their two cute kids. On New Years Eve we went out to the Hoover Dam. It is so big! They are making this new bridge that really is amazing to see how they build it. We went to this fun little lunch place that was on the Food Network Channel in Boulder City. We kind of just hung out that night and stayed home. Brian didn't even give me a New Years kiss.... That boy... The next day he and I spent the day with Chad and Suzie and went to lunch. After that we went our separate ways and the two of us spent the day on the strip. It was not what I expected it to be. I still wouldn't want to be left alone at all, but it wasn't as 'dirty' and 'scary' as I thought it was going to be. That night was amazing!!!!! We went to Phantom of the Opera with his mom and dad and sister Steph and Clint. I thought it was absolutely AMAZING!!! Mmmmm I was in love! Saturday Trent and Cheri got there and the girls and the boys separated and did our own thing. We met up and went to the Bodies exhibit at the Luxor. Brian got a lil bit queezy :) It was really cool to see how the body really looks and works. We went to this really good BBQ place that night. Way good. Sunday Brian and I spent a lot of the day at the strip and came home to play the newley wed game with all of his family.... We did pretty dang well! It was a little awkward with his mom there not going to lie. But monday is when the whole reason for the trip started. We drove from Vegas to Glendale to go to the Fiesta Bowl. It was so so so fun!! We were on the 12th row by Boise's band. I can't even describe how fun it was! Then all 6 of us piled back into the car and went back to Vegas and then back to Idaho. It was seriously the best time ever!!

Same Ole' Stuff

Well it is only three weeks into winter semester and I am sick of school already. Shocker there huh? No actually it is not that bad. The homework load never seems to cease. We have been getting a ton of snow lately and in the mornings it is really slick. I am always late to my 7:45 class because the road to the school is backed-up from Main Street up. I COULD leave five minutes earlier, but that would mean I would have to get up five minutes earlier... and that is just NOT going to happen :) I have made it a better goal to step up the exercising again. Winter is so hard on me! Not to mention Brian... I keep telling him that I was extremely in shape until he came around. That's ok. Life is much happier with him! But as of Monday, I am going to work out everyday! Someone hold me to it...please. It has been so fun to watch Logan's basketball games. Last week he had 22 of 38 points and probably had the assists for the rest of the points. He is so fun. He bricks lay-ups quite often. But you know him, he is always full steam ahead. We try telling him he has to come in slower but that only happens like 1/10 tries. For his age he pretty good, I think. It is fun to watch him, he will get a steal about every other time down the floor and he makes some really good passes! I am ready for spring. I am sick of the snow and it is just now getting here. Brian loves winter so he can go snowbiking... We are opposites when it comes to the whole 'winter' thing but that's ok, I will still keep him :)
