I won't be a chef or a maid but...

If I ever open a restraunt these are the items that will be on the menu:
Cereal
Oatmeal
Scrambled Eggs
Raw Vegetables/Fruits
EasyMac
and additional microwavable items

I am not a good chef. :) I'm not the best at following recipes, and I don't always time things...hence the burnt cookies or undercooked meals. =P
If I ever open a maid service my sign will read the following:

WARNING! 1% of time will be donated to cleaning
30% of time will be donated to complaining about cleaning
and 69% of time will be donated to playing with all the stuff I found

So, it's safe to say I will probably not be opening a restraunt or a maid service in my future. :) However, I recently got a sewing machine that my great grandmother has had for about ten years, stored in a closet, that hasn't even been opened! Hopefully, I might learn a thing or two and learn to make pillowcases and such. :) You never know! I'm going to give it a try! Will try to post pictures soon.

My trip!

Got home from my youth trip to FL last night! It's hands down my favorite part of the summer!!! This is a picture of our group! :) I'm the fourth from the left in the braids. Our lessons all had to do with "Connecting With God" so our shirts say "Connect"


My Aunt Nancy and my cousin Carolyn came to visit me too! I had alot of fun while they were there! This is a picture of me and C! SO glad I was able to see her! <3


This is a picture of Me and my "big brother" Landon! It's his last summer ever before he's a college freshman! Glad we were both able to go!

There was a rainstorm on the last day. Right as the sun was starting to set the rain stopped and when we looked out the window we were able to see this. I thought it was a pretty cool way to end the trip!



We were down in FL the 1st-6th and my birthday was on the 3rd. Haha the youth group threw me a surprise party! Ashley and Nicole, two girls in my group, called me and asked if I could come down the beach and talk about the lesson from that morning with them. So I was like "ummm...okay?" I didn't think anything about it though.  Then my youth minister calls me and asked if the 3 of us could come upstairs and help fold/sort Tshirts. So we go up to our meeting room and he opened the door and "SURPRISE!" Me, being the genius that I am, say "what are ya'll doing?" and my immediate thought is "We don't need this many people to fold and sort shir- OH! It's my birthday!" haha it was one of the sweetest birthdays I've ever had!!!! Definitely one I'll remember for a long long time! This is a picture of me and my cupcake :D Not too sure what I'm looking at! LOL

We ate dinner at Harry T's! I got a grilled chicken sandwich and french fries. It was so yummy! I was also super excited because I got to wear my new dress that's actually as long as I am!!! I'm 5'10...that just doesn't ever happen.

A picture of all the girls in our room! Left to Right: Me, Molly, Ashley, Nicole, Nikkia, and Sydney
This is just one of my all time favorite pictures. LOVE our faces and I laugh our loud every time I see Brandon and Sydeny's face in the background :) Anyway, this was on the way into Big Kahuna's on my birthday! I'm not a big waterslide person, so I spent the day with the Butler's! I had an absolute Blast!!!!

I didn't take a picture but I used tanning lotion and it actually worked! SPF 8 and I am like super tan!!! :D
