UGH!

I hate Firefox who has kicked me off the internet twice while trying to type and causing me to have to restart every time...so now I am giving up...hopefully to try again another day...

Tent-tastic

So Hayley and I were reminiscing about our childhood days and when we would make tents in the den that would take up the entire room so we decided that we would embark on that adventure once again and make a tent.

Me in the tent

Hayley and I realized our chances of becoming engineers were slight if not completely impossible. After many failed tent designs, my mom got ladders out the garage and made the tent herself-with our help of course. I sense many more tent adventures in the future...

The Maddness...

one day can cause...

My schedule for Sat. May 24 was as follows:
11:00 ward picnic
1:00 graduation
3:00 graduation party #1
4:00 graduation party #2
7:00 graduation party #3

I mean couldn't someone have chosen another day...any other day.

My mom was making cakes for two of the parties so we stayed up till 4 the night before finishing my cousin's graduation party cake (that was party two). Then I was up around 9:30 to get ready and leave the house for basically the rest of the day. Of course it was like a hundred degrees outside and half the events were outside.... We made the ward picnic for like 40 minutes before we left for graduation then ran as soon it was over to go home and finish the cake for party #3 (which was a surprise party). As a result of the second cake, we didn't make it to party #1. However, we did make it to all other events and then home around 10:00. It was a long day...and then for some reason decided to stay up till three in the morning...superb decision making I know...

cake #2 (I made the little person on top)*

Unfortunately that was really the only picture I have of the whole day...and if you know my family then you know that is the real sign it was a busy day.



* The best part of the cake were the sea creatures in the water at the bottom, you can't see them but just imagine a little octopus, a whale, a turtle, some coral and a bunch of fish...

Taste the Rainbow

No not skittles...snowballs! Yumm! This is one of the best things in life, hands down.


I had a kiwi flavored snowball that was pretty good. Now that I look back on the experience I think I should have gone with lime, both an awesome bright green color, but I think my choice was good. The best part is what happens after you eat the snowball.

Pretty awesome, I know. However it does kind of look like I am diseased. Oh well! Anyway, all I hope for now is more snowball adventures...


(I have nothing to add...how sad)

Mommy 's Taking Us To the Zoo Tomorrow

This past Saturday I went to the zoo...way cool, I know. It was strangely crazy busy and we got there in time to see the elephant show. I had never seen the animals so awake before because usually they look dead or not there at all. I even witnessed this intense battle between two lizards...too bad my camera didn't work fast enough or I would have videoed it. The seals were finally back as well (they had been relocated after Katrina).


The saddest part of the trip was the caterpillar massacre happening right before my eyes. There were dead bodies everywhere! It looked like a war zone and the poor little bugs were losing...badly. Sadly I accidentally killed one myself. There will be a severe lack of butterflies if something is not done soon. Maybe protesting...

cougar fan always

Sign of being back home: I almost died of a heat stroke but it was worth it.

ZZZzzzzz....

I really have nothing to do...I'm completely serious when I say absolutely nothing...nothing! At the moment I am home alone sitting on the couch with nothing to do and doing nothing. If you have any summer ideas or anything I am taking suggestions...

by the way: my summer job hunt is crashing and burning probably because of my lack of braveness...where are my roommates when you need them?

There's no place like home...

So I'm home...surprisingly nothing much has happened, actually that is not surprising...it is actually really boring. All my friends are still in school and too busy to do anything with me. I'm working the spotlight in my sister's school play and that takes up most of my time...at least I get to see some of my friends there. Well, since coming home I have realized many things I was missing in my life, they are as follows:

• humidity
• ceiling fans
• my lime green room
• bugs (not that I missed them)
• rain
• fighting with my sister over the front seat of the car
• being around other people named Sara(h) constantly
• my collection of books
• and being forced to make decisions by my mother...

Hopefully there will be something more exciting than this to discuss...

Depressing news: my 2 year old cousin forgot who I was, she kept calling me my sisters name...sad
