Girls night out








So i finally was able to find my camera cord so i can upload these pictures from our most recent girls night out. Kelsey jardine, Kari otto, and OF COURSE Emma jardine:) and I all had a girls night out. We drove to IF and went shopping for beads to fill our beading addiction, then went to a Primerica meeting with Kelsey and then we went out to eat at olive garden. I know spoiled right:) we bought two of the chicken alfredo pizzas and split them between the three of us, they were so good, and we were stuffed. It was awesome. We decided to kinda make it a monthly thing to just go out us girls. It is a healthy fun way to get out, do girl stuff and have fun together!!! I can't wait for the next one.

Not exactly a piece of cake.....







So over the October 3rd weekend Nick and I went to Oregon for my little sisters wedding. It is crazy to think she is married now but I guess that is just the big sister talking... The wedding went very well. It rained, but hey that is Oregon for you.. Regardless of the rain though everything went well and all the pictures turned out super cute. The one thing that I think surprised me the most was how calm everyone was. Sorry heather if you read this, but I totally expected you to be much more stressed out and be a total bridezilla! :) but after spending the weekend there with all of the wedding stuff going on I came to realize that you were far from being stressed out or even a little bit anxious. I was way more of a bridezilla than you were!!! I just got stressed out so much more easy than she did. I thought the way that Heather and Keith handled everything was very calm and cool, they were fun to be around. Well I am glad that things went that way because they should be calm on their special day while everyone else runs around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to get everything done and done perfect... Much love though, I had a great time regardless of the craziness and lost sleep. I got the opportunity to make heathers wedding cake for her. I took a class at BYU-Idaho two semesters ago. Although the things I learned in this class were very helpful, I still had a hard time with his cake. I was up till like 3 the morning before because the bottom layer was being less than cooperative:) But Nick was very helpful and was a great stress coach especially at 3 am..... but he suggested that every place there was a little imperfection that I just stick a flower or something there. It worked perfectly and as long as no one looked too closely at the backside it was picture perfect:) All in all it was a fun project and I learned a lot and had a great time at her wedding.... to bad there was enough cake left over to feed a small country afterwards though if I would have known that I would have made some layers out of Styrofoam or rice krispies or something that didn't crumble quit so easily. Ha, well it was hard work not exactly a piece of cake but totally worth it.

My secret Gangsta LIfe


So yeah i have a secret. well not totally a secret, but something that most people don't really know about me that is totally out there..... I am secretly a little bit gangsta.... NO not the crazy gang member type but just a little gangsta.. you know i love my hip hop, and big city. I mean, if a new law was passed that banned all of the disgusting and wrong dancing that went on a clubs, and if there was a dress code that actually encouraged more clothes instead of less i would be dancin' in them non-stop :).. So you may ask that's your gangsta secret??? NO.. there is something bigger... I love break dance. I am way into break-dancing and surprisingly enough have gotten to get involved with a group at BYU- Idaho that i practice with.. i know kinda out there but it is so much fun.Now all i need is a good breakin' name like B-girl Amandizzle :) well maybe ill work on that one... in the mean time ill keep breakin' it up !
