yummm...
easy as cake!
so yesterday, i was getting ready to leave... zac and i were going shopping for our poker night... when austin comes into the kitchen saying that he's gonna bake a cake while i'm gone. i asked him if he had ever made one by himself before and he said he hadn't. i told him to be really careful and follow the directions and he said he would. so by the time i got home, he had one tiny bread pan of cake. i asked him where the rest of it was and he said, "in the alley..." apparently he had gotten mixed up and he put a whole cup of oil in instead of 1/3 cup! haha! he didn't want mom and dad to find out so he threw it outside and washed up all the dishes! haha! so to help him out, i made a cake so the house wouldn't smell like cake without an actual cake in the house. meanwhile, austin forgot to throw his tiny cake (in the tiny bread pan) away. so when mom and dad got home, mom found the cake and questioned austin. he had to blow the whole story! haha
ps- it didn't quite look like that... it looked better! haha

my hero!
then we came back to our house and watched the newest episode of celebrity family feud! gotta love it! so when it was time for them to leave, i walked them to the door and i was closing it behind them when this FREAKING TARANTULA ran into the house!
neither of them would do anything about it and i didn't know where austin was so i was kinda freaking out! i ran into mom and dad's room and they were both asleep. mom jerked awake like she does and then didn't really care to help. dad just mumbled, "get it out." then i was like "HOW?" mom said to brush it out the door with a broom. so i was going to try to be brave and brush it out the door. by the time i got back to the living room with the broom, austin had a tupperware bowl and just trapped it! that means he was way closer to it than i ever would have been! how brave! i was so impressed! when zac and devin were just standing there, austin just walks up and traps it and takes it outside! love him!
anyway... so after austin takes it outside, mom is all of a sudden alert and and awake and she was trying to get austin to bring it back in the house so i could get a picture of it to blog it for you but he wouldn't do it! haha! so a picture from wikipedia will have to suffice!

the funnest book in the world!
that's the one! ok... so you know the u.s. citizenship tests in it? well dustin brought it out and we decided to do the quiz... the easy one mind you. well mom did pretty good. i got them all right. adrian was acting a little blond... but it was funny! one question was: "what were the 48th and 49th states to join the union?" and adrian said, "union? like the country?" hahaha it was funny! that's pretty much how the whole quiz went! haha!
the other thing... this is from austin! so we got a new print master... our old one wasn't working and it was just time for a new one, you know? this one is really cool! it's pretty much the same thing, just newer and nicer. so austin's favorite part is the "fun house." you can put faces into these funny pictures. this is the one that i did! it was pretty much the best!
adrian was a little offended cause she really thinks she has hairy arms! haha even though she doesn't! haha but how perfect is dustin's face?! i love it!

wish me luck!
so yesterday adrian and i drove to phoenix. adrian wanted to see her friends new house and then go lunch with amy. i just wanted to go to ashley's house! anyway... we got ready to leave the new house... we were totally leaving on time... and the car wouldn't start... at all! so we were stuck there... adrian was kinda freaking out... (i would too if my car wouldn't start when i was 2 1/2 hours from home! don't feel bad adrian!) they tried jumping the car several times and it wasn't working. anyway... to make a long story short, we got a new battery and it worked again! whoo hoo! meanwhile, ashley picked me up from checker auto parts and we went shopping and just hung out.
adrian and i made it back home in one piece and i was only 30 minutes late for zac's birthday party (yes he turned 18!)! so that was fun too! exciting, fun, long, and stressful day!

wisdom brings pain...
so this morning was my consultation. i was looking at the x-ray yesterday and thought it didn't look that bad... (i picked it up from dr. alston's office so we wouldn't have to pay for it again)... but it turns out it's gonna be pretty bad. dr. casagrande (weird name) has to cut through my gums, then cut out the bone that's covering the wisdom teeth, then rip out the teeth, then sew me back up... GROSS! she said to expect swelling but she also said she would give me vicodin! happy day! and she said to wear comfortable clothes so i have an excuse to wear my gray jammie pants for days! whoo hoo!

Holy Big Camel!
the parade was seriously really funny this year! my next favorite thing was...
this bull ran out into the crowd of all these little kids! it was so freaking funny!
and last, but certainly not least...
are there any words that can describe this float except for... AMAZING! if i had a ranch, i would name it something awesome like that! haha!
ok... back to the beginning. the cabin was fun... sometimes dramatic... but still fun. dad, mom, austin and i drove up early wednesday morning. (we made it in exactly 5 hours!) wednesday we just hung out... nothing incredibly exciting. thursday morning some of us woke up early and went fishing. i caught a couple fish but grandma caught like 20!
later that day we went . the highlight of the trip! we had some gallons of water to shoot at and i wanted to shoot one before all the boys did... i don't remember what gun i had at that point but it didn't have a scope... just open sights. well we put the gallons of water up on the hill about a hundred yards away. all the guys were talking about how even they probably couldn't hit one of the gallons. well... i took it slow... didn't rush... and what do you know... BANG!! i got it! some of the other guys got the other two but they had scopes... i did not! woot woot! dad called it the shot of the week! i was so happy!
meantime, i was burning to a crisp! i was wearing a t-shirt so from like the middle of my upper arm all the way down to my fingertips i am so incredibly burned! it's been a few days so it's alot better but holy crap it hurt! i even got burned in my elbow pit! it hurts so bad! anyway... the rest of the time was fun. fishing, , quading, making s'mores, spotlighting in the rain... good times!
