Giant Cupcake!

CUPCAKES!

This was my first attempt making my Giant Cupcake! It took all day! Seriously ! But it was fun, My cousin Emily (she is 9) helped me make the cake batter from Scratch! It was not easy to frost, I'll have to keep practicing.....

Memory Lane!

Memorandum

I saw this on Caitlyn’s blog and thought I could use a little walk down Memory Lane!

1. Add a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses.
I can't wait to see what people remember!

Happy Birthday to ME!

Happy to announce that I am now.... 25!

YUM, Ice Cream Cake!

This was my surprise party! I love parities!!!

Last Thursday (July 17th) My mom celebrated giving birth to her 1st child 25 year ago!!! Crazy (not sure if it's crazy my mom has a child that old, or if me being that old is crazier) I had a great day! I woke up bright and earlier and even though I'm married and living away from my family i had to keep with the tradition of opening my presents first thing! My mom sent a few packages and I had a few cards that had come in the mail! My mom sent me a few shirts and a cup cake caring case! I can now travel (safely, mind you) Whit 24 cup cakes that will in no way be damaged or destroyed!!!! Along with the cutest cup cake making book ever! Then Jon being sneaky magically made a cute birthday card appear (while he was still in bed). I still don't know how he did it:) And then Jon whipped out from under the bed a bad from William Sonoma.... He got me a giant cup cake mold I have been wanting for a while!!!!! I guess this is the year of the cup cakes!!!

That Evening we went out to Sushi and then Jon drove me around Nashville for no apparent reason. Then later I found out he was stalling because he arranged for some friends to be at our apartment we we got home!!! So I had a mini surprise party waiting for me. It was fun to hang out with friends!!! Jon was very sweet to me on my birthday, I felt very special!

I had a great 24th year. Here is a mini year in review:

• Got Married
• Went to Mexico
• Jon Graduated from BYU
• Moved to Nashville
• Got a new Job
• Cut my hair!
• Bought a House! (haven't closed yet)

That's what I did in the last year. Can't Wait to see what the next year holds for me!!

Our New House... in the Summer!

The other Picture was taken in the early spring. This picture shows off all the pretty landscaping & Trees in the backyard! I love it~

That little speck with the arms in the air.. that's me!

Guess what WE did.....

You are Looking at Carole Ann's & Jon's BRAND SPANKING NEW HOUSE!!!

Remember my last Post a few weeks ago, about our obsession at looking for a house. Well We Signed the papers this week for the house above. This is the listing picture, so when I can take a better picture I will. Because it is SOO Much cuter now. (And once I get my hands on it, it will be So cute!)

We are Moving to Hendersonville, TN ( 20 min North of Nashville). We close on August 8th and will move in shortly after that. It's been crazy, I was in no way ready to buy a house and or move. I love where we live now, but this house just felt right and everything worked out!! I will be 10 min. away from work, and Jon will have to drive down to Nashville. It's been a very exciting & emotional week. If anyone wants to come visit, please do!

4th of July weekend!

Jon & I were very Patriotic in our Red & Blue!

Nashville Fireworks. Did you know Nashville has the #2 firework show in the country!


LOVE!

Fireworks are so fun!!

I felt the same way with the fireworks!

I love the 4th of July, it's my favorite holiday (beside my birthday!!! ) We had a great BBQ with some friends in the ward. Jon made Pulled BBQ Pork for everyone, and boy was it yummy!
