 and eat lots of these :)

Don't these look good?

Go camping with family and friends.....



Head over the hill and play at Bear Lake....



Go to Demolition Derbies......

Im done!!!!

This morning started off so great... I am now officially done with getting my mouth worked on. I have been looking forward to this day forever now.

After finding out that I have 3 teeth missing; one on top and 2 on bottom the process started. I got braces and they made a gap on the top to make room so I could get an implant. I wasn't done growing yet so I had to wear a fake tooth around for a year or so. I got the first of many surgeries done in summer of 2009. Im glad that I dont remember a thing and the medicine I took knocks me out cold for hours. You have to wait a couple of months to make sure the bone takes the the implant before you can put the tooth in. I finally got my tooth on the top. In 2010 we started the whole process over but on the bottom.I had a couple more surgeries and played the waiting game for them to heal up make sure the other implants took to the bone. I got the tooth on the right bottom side and they started on the left side. This morning I finally got the tooth on the left side and now I am done for a long time.

It's been quite the process but so worth it. I never knew how much of a change it made. Looking at pictures when I was younger till now it's huge. I love my mouth!! I'm so grateful to my parents and the dentist and all they did to make me have a great smile :) I wish I had pictures to show you the huge change, but sadly I don't.

August please come soon.....



 Chet left for Texas on Tuesday night and I won't get to see him for 4 months. It will be a rough summer not having him around all the time but at least its only for 4 months and not a year. He is already rubbing it in my face that he is in 88 degree weather and I'm here in Utah with snow :)  Luckly I have my family and lots of my friends to keep me company till August. Looks like from here on out texting and talking with chet are going to be my new favorite things and keep me going through the whole summer.

Things that I will miss about cheddar:
  • Not getting to hang out with my best friend all the time.
  • Him not being around to give me a hug when I'm having a really bad day and telling me everything is going to be okay.
  • His 'I'm up to something' grin.
  • Him wrestling me to the ground while I try to fight back (most of the time I just tap out)
  • Always playing 'Black and Yellow' super loud and dancing to it. I made sure to put it up here so you can hear what I had to listen to for the last 2 weeks. Don't worry I still listen to it a lot now that he is gone. Chet would be proud :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRY!!!!!!


  Bryant turned 13 on Wednesday, and it's the first time that I didn't get to celebrate it with him. He is in New Hampshire visiting Katie and Dan for his spring break with the fam. When I called to wish him a Happy Birthday he was excited to tell me that my dad suprised him and they were going to the NBA hall of fame. I'm sure he loved every minute there.

 I can't believe he is a teenager now and its been so fun to see him grow up. He is always so full of energy. He is one of the smartest kids I know and works hard in school. He LOVES sports and is one amazing dancer.He is not afraid to try anything and is the biggest dare devil. He is a great example to me and always makes me laugh. Happy Birthday Bry!!!! Can't wait for you to get home and party. Love ya

Girls Night

 Once again my old roommates and I got together and had a girls night. Instead of going out to eat we decided to make dinner this month. Marianne taught us how to make her swedish meatballs that were so yummy. :) This time I made sure to take pictures of us.

                                 

                                 
While I got to work my hands in the meat. Marianne and Natalie were busy making the sauce to go over the meat balls. It's always fun to get together once a month and just laugh, share funny stories and of course danced to the our favorite music. After our yummy dinner (sorry forgot to take a picture of the final product) we ate our chocolate pie that we made. Oh it is so good and super easy to make. 

Chocoalte Pie:
  • crush a package of oreos (with out the middles) and add a little butter so that it holds together or you can just buy it already made at the store.
  • make the chocolate instant pudding -follow directions on the box.
  • once the pudding is set up but chocolate chips in pudding ( if you want)
  • put the pudding in the crust and top it off with whip cream.
  • break up candy bars and sprinkle it on top.
 Thanks girls for another great night, can't wait for next month.
