Tonight for family night we made caramel apples...snickers, oreo, and kit kat were the flavors and boy did we sure enjoy them!! :)

 

I put all 3 flavors on mine...don't mind if i do..... :)

 

I LOVE these for a holiday treat!

It was fun making these this year.

 They were a tad bit messy but of course the finished product tasted amazing!!

Making my apple..... :)

We were going to watch "Hocus Pocus," but it was getting late so we will have to watch it tomorrow....we ♥ that movie... :)

 



Meg's Party...♥

Last night we had a family party to celebrate my cousin Megan's 16th birthday!! :) Wow, I can't even believe that she is old enough to date and drive now....I remember turning 16 and how excited I was to start dating and driving! 

Time sure does fly by that's for sure...... :)

 The birthday girl!!!

 Megan's cute birthday balloons.....

 The cousins eating dinner.....we ate yummy soups, breads, fruits, you name it!!! :)

BEST dessert EVER too!!

Teenagers......:)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEGAN!!!!! :)

I also found out at church yesterday that I have to give a 5 minute talk on Divine Nature for Young Women in Excellence in 3 weeks.....wish me luck ;)

Last night....♥

Last night Sierra and I went out for dinner at The Greenery....

 

This week has been soo crazzzyyy for both Sierra and I and it was nice having our girl time.... :)

Weird what can happen in just one week..when you never expected it... seems to be happening to both of us right now and we know that we have each other to lean on and get through these trials!!

 

Heavenly Father wants us to be happy and wants what is BEST for us.... :)

 

It's crazy in life how everything happens for a reason...we might not understand everything right now, but one day we will look back on it and know why certain things were supposed to happen. :)

 

 

 

 

After dinner we headed to a party that we shouldn't have been at.... as soon as we walked into the house where the party was we just got these feelings inside telling us that we shouldn't be there and that we needed to get out of there.....as we got to the basement we knew why we needed to leave...we listened to the Holy Ghost and when we got the courage to get out of there we knew that we were making the right decision...... :)

 

The Holy Ghost has helped me make lots of decisions and choices lately and I know that I will hever have to face them alone... Heavenly Father will always be there for me no matter what and I know that he has a special plan in store for me.... :)

 

As long as we choose the right and are always trying to do our best, we will be BLESSED in making decisions through the Holy Ghost helping us!!

 

We can ALL do HARD things..... ♥

♥GiRl'S WeeKeNd♥....

On Wednesday night after school me and 8 of my friends went down to Salt Lake to stay in a hotel and then we went shopping at City Creek and Gateway the next day!!! :) This "Girl's Weekend" was very much needed and it was so fun having no adults...we really are growing up.... :) We stayed up late hottubbin, eating, and talking....woke up early for breakfast and had a buffet...and then we were off to a LONG day of shopping.....we SHOP TIL WE DROP!! :) I'm so blessed to have the friends that I do...and having my Sister Alli come made it EVEN better!! I love that she gets along with all of my friends as well... :) We made lots of memories and even though it was only for 1 night we still made it a PARTY!! :) We are making this a tradition.... :)

 Meeting at my house.... :)

 I ♥ my crazzzyyy friends!!!

 We made sure we were prepared with all kinds of music, cd's, ipods, you name it!! :) We made videos, danced, sang, and JAMMED out!!!

 Alli rode with Jade. :)

 Here we go ladies..... :)

 Yeahhh we're pretty cool. ;) We followed my Dad to the hotel and Jade got a little lost Hahaha. :) My Dad checked us in...he's the best, I love him!! :)

 Only 30 minutes til the pool closed wasn't gonna stop us....we hurried down there and hottubbed!! :)

 There was a creeper in the hottub and it was hilarious....only my girls would know! :)

 Mari, Alli, Jordyn, and Jade ate dinner and just chilled by the pool.... :)

 We got 2 rooms and it was PERFECT! :)

 We packed all of our stuff up the next morning and checked out of the hotel. :)

 It was hilarious watching everybody in the lobby just stare at all of us girl's as we all walked out of the hotel one by one with all of our bags!!! :)

 All of our bags for just one night..... :) a girl can never pack too much stuff. ;)

Then we were headed to City Creek...once again Jade got lost...and Courtney and Kasie led us all the way up to the Capitol...finally we were able to pull into City Creek..... :)

 Taking pictures in the elevator's is literally a BLAST.... I think we'll have to do it more often. :)

 Walking into Macy's..... :)

 Shopping with my bestie in Love Culture.... :)

 Everyone started to get hungry so we headed to the food court for lunch. :)

 We talked, and talked, and talked..... :) still everyone was staring at us cause of our big group of girl's..... :)

 Mari and I decided to try on some heels....and if ya know me, I NEVER wear heels...they actually were pretty cute...I will have to find me a pair to buy sometime.... :)

 Mari and I.. :)

 Everywhere we would go...people stared...didn't know we were gonna get so much attention in just one day.... :)

 Sierra and I LOVE shopping....we are SHOPAHOLIC'S, that's for sure!! :)

 Me with my girl's..... :)

Some boys asked for Sierra's number so we made them take pictures of us...pretty funny! :) 

 Holding up our shopping bags!!! :)

 Kept going down the elevator.... :)

By the end of the night when we were home, Sierra and I decided to just lay back and take it easy..... :) We sure were worn out and our legs were killin!

We began to make our "Bucket Lists" and can't wait to start crossing each thing off..... :)

♥ZuMbA♥...

Tuesday was another Zumba night...Oh how I LOVE it!!!

Funny how all of us friends showed up not knowing we would be going the same night..... :)

I've missed Zumba over UEA weekend...our Zumba teacher is out of town.... :)

Looking forward to going on Tuesday!! :) It can't come soon enough!!!! 

*bLaCk iSlAnD fArMs*...

On Saturday we went to my cousin Bella's Baptism. :) She looked so pretty and we are very proud of her decision in wanting to be baptized!! Afterwards, we went to their house for a yummy lunch and then went to Black Island Farms....getting kicked out of the cornmaze by the "Corn Cop" was freaking hilarious!!! I mean seriously, I didn't know there was even such thing as a "Corn Cop" but apparently there is.... :) We spent a couple hours there letting the kids pet animals, go down slides, etc. They LOVED it! :) They had a helicopter there that would give you rides...thats on my bucklist...and I will have to make a trip back down there soon!! :)

 About to go have some fun. :)

 Sisters...... :)

 They had it decorated cute everywhere!

 Alli, Isabella, Brielle, Luke, and Savannah. :)

 Mom and Dad by the Pumpkins..... :)

 Gotta love these...... :)

 "Which way should we go?"

 Cornmaze!! :)

 Trying to find our way out...Dad was the leader.... :)

 Going over the bridge....this was right before the "Corn Cop" got mad at us for going through the corn.... :)

 We decided to go look at the animals and my Mom wanted me to get a picture with this goat...well as I put my head by him he snatches my hair, yanks my head to the fence, and pulled out some of my hair!!! It hurt, but it was SOOO FUNNY and we will always remember that!!!! :)

Me, Mom, Krisie, and Alli. :)

Gotta LOVE when you forget to put the memory stick in the camera and end up taking all your pics with your iphone........ :)
