Pie Party, Baby!

It was a fly party! Fly pie party! Na na na na!
Yes, our 2nd annual Pie Party was indeed a very Fly Party.



I made some delicious Banana Pie, but I didn't cool it long enough, so it got kinda soupy.
But there were 6 delicious pies made by me, Megan, Erica, and Erica's sister, Andrea.
  • Banana
  • Chocolate
  • Strawberry Blueberry
  • Peanut Butter
  • Coconut Cream
Pretty soon, Peter (also known as Pener) came along bearing a pizza.
It was vegetarian. I guess he was trying to send some sort of message.
Not long after came Bradley Birdsley.
Then came Ben. He's got a fro, and it kept fro'in me off, cause he looked like a black man.
We played some Uno, which Pener won.
Then we played outside with rocks.
Then me and Birdsley played some Jenga while Megan, Erica, and Peter played some Dreamphone.
It was nice.
And that concludes our Pie Party.
The pies were quite glorious.
The company, just as good.
The memories, priceless.

Summer Frolick List

Is a list that Erica, Megan, and I came up with. It's a list of things we want to do this summer. There are 50 tasks on this list. But we already have 6 accomplished.

Today we completed task #3 by going to Oquirrh Lake in Daybreak and eating shakes on the bridge. While Megan and I were waiting for Erica to arrive, we were sitting on the bridge talking and a bird flew by and pooped... about a foot away from Megan. Ha! It was really funny.




Then we took a turn about the Lake and lo and behold, there were some sprinklers! Running through sprinklers just happens to be Task #29 on our list, so we took advantage of this convenience.

Kilby Court


Is an excellent place. And that's where Erica and I went on Friday the 14th night to see The Continentals play their last show with Erik, the drummer.

Before they started, we walked down the street and found a soggy couch, a wall of graffiti, and some tires.

When they were setting up, we pushed our way to the front because we are short. They played an excellent show and almost broke some instruments.

Then some balding guy named Danburry played. He was pretty good. He had free cd's, so Erica and I both got 3.

During this evening we found out some funny information:

Ben and the ticket/concessions girl are secretly in love.
Logan likes to get in touch with his feminine side.

Jordan hates it when I take pictures of him.

Erica can float.

We're pretty cool.

My Brother Got Himself Married


It's true. Her name is KateLyn. And his name is Andrew. And together they are A & K.

The day was Friday, April 30, 2010. It was a wet, snowy morning. Then it was a sunny, cold, windy afternoon. Which is all we ever could have hoped for.

Us girls got excellent purple bouquets. We also had purple shoes and stellar black dresses of our picking. Carlee, Lindsay, Mrs. Shirts (KateLyn's biological sister), and myself were the bridesmaids. And excellent ones we were.

The ceremony started at 3:00 pm. Lindsay and I, being unendowed individuals, could not attend the ceremony. Bummer? Yes. But, we had a party instead. We danced to some sweet tunes, including The Almost's "Free Fallin" (my selection) and Kesha's "Your Love Is My Drug" (Lindsay's selection). Very festive for a temple wedding, I'd say.

So we left at about 3:15. When we got to the waiting room of the temple, there were all of KateLyn's cousins and her little brother, Jeff, and little niece, Mikenzy. Did anyone say anything to us? No. They must not have realized that our brother was half of what was making this day possible. And if it weren't for his sisters, he wouldn't be the man he is today. Just saying.

So, after about 15 minutes, people started entering the waiting room with us. Uncle Mark came in first and hugged us. He's a pretty swell uncle. Then all the other uncles and aunts came in. Then Carlee, then the tears.

After a bit, we all went to the back of the temple and waited for A & K to come out. Grandma came out first in her wheelchair, waving to everyone and smiling. That was quite funny.

Then A & K came out.

We laughed, cried, hugged, took pictures, and then went to the front. This is where the professional pictures took place. Now this... this was fun. After 30+ minutes of snap shotting, we (Carlee, Lindsay, and I) left and went home for a moment to get some stuff for the dinner.

Then we headed over to the church and protected Andrew's car from being trashed. This took some work. Our own mother had conspired against us to do the dirty deed. She hid the car stickers next to Grandma, so I sneakily grabbed them and hid them. We then took his car and hid it around the corner. Aunt Lucille and Zach asked us if we knew the car and the decoration's whereabouts. Unfortunately, I was forced to fib. But, all for a good cause.

We had Tacanos Brazilian Grill cater for dinner. This was delightful. Then they cut the cake and left.

We succeeded at keeping Andrew's car safe. But when we returned to our house, KateLyn's car was graffitied. So, C & L took it and cleaned it up.
You guys (friends of the B & G) really got A & K!

The End

Spring Break = Over

Well, Spring Break was pretty stellar.
I went to Carlee's St. Patrick's Day Party. And ate. A lot.
I partied with Megan in Orem. We went to an Art Museum and Antique Shopping. And, of course, the mall. I got 3 new shirts and 3 pairs of shoes!
I got my first pair of heels! And wedges!
I played Settlers of Catan with Dad and Lindsay. And lost. How dare them. Lindsay won. It's okay though, cause she's never won before. As long as Dad doesn't win.
Us girls got our wedding dresses. Or, dresses for not our wedding.
Dad and Mother took me to Joe Morley's where I devoured some beef and beans.
I hung out with my new friend, JC.
And then I did some other stuff.

Photoshoot

Aleisha and I sometimes go on photoshoots, because that's just how we roll. We went on 2 a few weeks ago. The 2nd one was cold and wet and snowy. So I like the first one the best. Here are my favorite shots:
