Now thats what I call Creative !! :)


So lately my mom has been looking at these watch bracelets online, because she really wanted one. They are around $30, and she really didn't want to spend that money one one, I think she was hoping to get one for Mother's Day... :) Then I was like mom, you could totally make your own! She wasn't thrilled at first... but as we got into it she seemed to really enjoy herself, as we all did. Emily and I went and got the supplies on Monday and we started to make them. We had a ton of beads! But that just never seemed to be enough! Haha We had so much fun! And they turned out so so so cute! We didn't have our watch faces yet... But we still made all the bracelets on Monday.

Then today we got our watch faces!!! I love them! They are so cute! We had some trouble though... When I went to put on my brown one it broke and beads exploded everywhere!! It was devastating... But good thing it wasn't my favorite!
Oh and a few weeks ago I made my own earring holder!! It is so nice to have all my earrings on display, and not all tangled in a drawer! And it matches my room :)

I ALWAYS WIN!! :)

So me and Skylar played Monopoly last night and he made me laugh so hard! I was totally dominating him and he storms off saying "I QUIT!" But he didn't even get 4 steps away when he whirled around all angrily saying to himself, "I wont give up so easily!" Then he sits down like nothing happened!! Hahaha it was so hilarious! And of coarse I won! :)

I Know... Im Just The Best Aunt Ever... :)

So today I was watching my nephew Zach because his parents went to try out for the biggest loser and were gone early in the morning. So I wanted to do something fun with his so we started out the day with going to McDonald's for breakfast When I told him he was seriously shaking with excitement haha it was so cute! So after I got him all cute complete with a little boy foe hawk we went over there to eat. I got a lot of suspicious looks.. What? Can't a girl take her nephew out? Geez! Then he said the funniest thing ever! after I tried to tell him the picture of the big pancake meal was for a man, he said, "I AMMMM a man!!!" Haha I laughed so hard!
So after we ate we went and played on the playground, and I seemed to forget how not fun that is after the age of 12.... That place used to be so huge!! But its so tiny in there! And my knees are still sore!

Then we went to Wal-Mart cuz I needed to buy a book. We walked around the garden center for awhile, Zach loves plants and he loved all the different flowers he wanted to get a flower plant and bring it home to Grandpa to put in his garden, but I was pretty sure there would be no room for it...

Then we looked at the fish, bought my book and some chalk that I thought would be fun, and got back into the car for our next destination. Zach has never been to a Garage sale so I thought I would take him to get a cheap toy. So found one and there was all these books but they were all in Spanish! But then we found a Go Diego! blow up chair! It was brand new and only a $1! Good buy! I had Zach pay for it and when she gave him the change she said, "ok now give that to momma" and I was like, "Haha! Oh no!! I am not momma!" Then we finally went home but our day wasn't over yet... We went crazy with the chalk completing our drawling with a GIANT rainbow!

Then we were all hot and sweaty so we got our swimsuits on and washed the car, then we had a water fight!
Then this lady was walking her puppy for the first time! And you know me! I couldn't resist!!!
We had soooo much fun! I love him so much! And I wouldn't trade that day up for anything!

Happy Birthday to Meee!

Thursday was my 17th birthday! It is so weird to say I'm 17! It seems so old! All my family came over that night and we had a BBQ to celebrate me and Dallin's birthday, his was on the 21.
I got $40, which i needed desperately, A dress and mints from Emily, 3 shirts and a pair of jeans that i picked out a few weeks earlier from my parents, and even though she said so firmly "Don't you expect anything on your birthday!" She then got me some mints a shirt and a necklace :). It was an awesome birthday but little did I know it wasn't over....

The next day I came home from a ward babysitting night and Tobie and Andrea were hiding in my room and they threw a pillow case over me, took me outside, and shoved me in the back of the trunk! We drove around and then we stopped and when they opened the trunk they were like, "Oh Kelsey! What happened to you!!? We fought off your kidnappers! Are you OK!?" Hahaha they are so funny... We were at sonic and they brought me Fresa and balloons, which I loved! And we just had fun and hung out and of coarse... ate some chicken strip sandwiches!! :)

Cali Trip Spring Break 2010!!

So we have been planning this trip for what seems like forever!!! And it finally came! We left Friday morning and came back Sunday night. We had so much junk food to eat!! We all brought tons of food to share, this is what I brought

This was my new dress and new swim suit is under so you can't see it.. But it was cute!! I hope the picture is not too dark to see it!

I drove the first 3 hour, it was so nerve racking!! But the time seemed to fly by!! I also got pulled over!! I was going 72MPH in a 55MPH zone!! ...construction... :/ But the cop let me off really easy! I only got a $50 fine! Which isn't too bad...

The windmills! Classic... :)

We drove straight to the beach in Santa Monika. But before that we drove around for at least 45 minutes trying to find a pizza place!! That city is insane! And the ocean was so freakin cold! I only went in a few times, but I made a pretty awesome sand castle.

On Saturday we went to Six Flags Magic Mountain!! We were there all day! We went on most of the rides including X2!! That ride is like no other ride!! What a rush!

Me in line for Goliath!

Then on the way home we went to the Hard Rock Cafe in Universal City for Dallin's BDay. Delish food!! :)

Dallin and Amanda

Me Emily and Amanda

THEN! Grand finale!! :) :) :) While we were eating out of nowhere! Gerard Butler shows up! He was signing autographs and then he went up stairs to eat. I didn't recognize his name at first.. but when I realized who he was I freaked out!
I had so much fun and I wish I could go back! But it had to end sometime... I can't wait to go again another time!! :)

My Little Model! :)

I got a gigantic roll of backdrop paper from my photography teacher to use in one of my projects. So I set it all up in my family room, and it wasn't easy... then I took some pics for my project. When I was done Zach was dying to get picture taken too so we did our own little photo shoot! He wanted to be silly the whole time.. but I got some really cute pics!

This one makes me laugh! It's so him!

By far my FAVORITE!! :)


He really wanted to scream in the pictures, because that is what he new BF Tobie was doing when I took her pics earlier :)


What a Little G

March!!

Though it's been March for awhile... I thought I would express my love for it!! :) March is just the PERFECT month!! The weather is great, we get Spring Break, and of course! my BIRTHDAY!! In my opinion March is the best month to have a birthday! 1st It is kinda in the middle of nowhere it's not near a holiday so it gives a variety of events all spread out in the year, 2nd it's NOT a summer birthday! I would hate to have a summer birthday! It just sounds too plain and boring to me... and 3rd March is just a cool month! Just say March over and over again... it sounds cool doesn't it?!! :) So to all my frios out there that have a BDay in March, or your just obsessed with it like me, Happy March!! :)

Fun Facts About March!!

I was supposed to be Born in APRIL!! Weird!?

March used to be the first month of the year until 1752

In the village of Tichborne every year on March 25th (My BIRTHDAY!!!) the Feast of the Annunciation (Lady’s Day).

One of the flowers most associated with March is the narcissus (Which I happened to just take a picture of one a few days ago with my phone, at the temple, and I had no idea!!)

This was a saying I found about March weather and I thought it was cool because today the weather was like a lion!!! :) : 'When March comes in like a lion it goes out like a lamb.'
