Homecoming 2014: The Dance!

The homecoming dance was AMAZING!!!!! I had the BEST TIME EVER!!!

After I got my hair and makeup done...

Haha I made a goal to give up soda until homecoming! It was a long, hard three weeks, but it just made my slurpee taste ten-billion times better when I finally got to drink one today!

Silly selfie!

I truly felt like a princess... thanks mom, for giving me the amazing blessing of me getting my hair and make up done! :)

I was sooooooooo nervous! I was taking selfies to distract myself while I waited for my date, Matt, to pick me up:)

#Slurpee

Haha I just love slurpees! I've been trying to eat healthier, so I kind of stopped drinking them, which is hard for me because I love them soooooooo much:) Today, however, I decided to get one! It is Sunday for crying out loud! So, that's what I did:) Here's me drinking my delicious slurpee!

Haha, no I did not get the large…they were just out of medium cups so I only filled it up halfway:)

yum-a-licious!

5 Things that Make Me Happy

 

Hey! Here are 5 things that make me most happy right now! (This is another one of those "blogging idea list" things)

1. Going to See My Mom and Dad at the Hospital. My mom is currently in the hospital (there will be more about whats going on in another post). Going to see my mom every day is the highlight of my day! My dad is staying there with her, so we get to see him too! I miss them soooooooo much, and I can't wait for them to be able to come home! (Please pray!)

2. Frozen Yogurt. I have been totally craving fro-yo lately! I don't know why, but I am always in the mood to get it☺. I have also been craving ice cream, Slurpees/Icees, and chocolate! They all make me so happy!!!

3. It's Almost Summer. Finally, summer is almost here! I'm officially out of school, other than math. Unfortunately, I will have math until the end of May☹. Oh well! I guess its better than having math on top of everything else!

4. 2048. My dad's family all came in town to help out since my mom is in the hospital. My uncle got me addicted to this number game called "2048" on my phone, but it can also be found online (2048 website). It's really fun and addicting! I got my aunt addicted to it, and we are currently in a tournament to see who can get the highest score. I'm in the lead!!! Yay! ☺♥☺♥☺♥

5. Having Family Time. My dad's family doesn't live nearby (Louisiana, North Carolina, Utah), so we don't get to see them very often. I am really enjoying getting to spend time with them, even though they aren't here for the best circumstances! 

Anyways, those are 5 things that really make me happy!!! ☺☺☺

Halloween 2013!!! (hey that rhymes! lol)

Happy Halloween!

 Here is a summary of the night!!!

First, I went to a halloween party, and hung out for an hour or two. Then I came home, took a hay ride, that had no hay, and rode around with one of my most bestestest friends, Claire. We trick or teated around the whole neighborhood with some of the neighbors, and had a blast! Then we came home, counted and traded candy with my siblings, ate some, Claire and I watched the Hunger Games, and hung out until it was so late that we could barely keep our eyes open! We had a super fun night!

Now it's time for.......halloween candy totals!!!

(please note that this was counted after some bribing, begging, trading, steeling some from our give away basket, and, well, you get the point.)

Twix: 15

Kit Kats: 24

Snickers: 36 (two were full size!!!)

Reeces: 2

Butterfingers: 1

Hersheys: 2 (both full size!!!)

Crunch: 12

Drum roll please........109 pieces of halloween candy!!! Yum yum yum!!!!!!!

All in all, it was a super awesome and fun night! Happy Halloween!!!

Carving Pumpkins!

We got to carve our pumpkins today! We had a great time! I don't have many pics but I do however,  have one of my pumpkin!

There it is! (its supposed to be a ghost!) Don't tell anyone, but that is the best pumpkin I've ever carved.......yes ever!  After we carved, we took all of the pumpkin seeds and using a recipe we got online, baked them! They were soooooooo good!

All in all, we had a super night!

The Wonders of Peanut Butter

I'm totally addicted to peanut butter. I literally eat spoonfuls of it.......no exaggeration. I mean, how could someone not like it? It's creamy, yet crunchy (if you get the crunchy kind.....which is my fave), delicious and delicious-er, mouth-watering and addicting, and so super AMAZING!!!!!! If you don't like peanut butter, then you have a serious problem. Whats wrong with you people?!?! Let me just say this: if you don't like peanut butter, I don't know how our friendship is going to work out. (lol just kidding! But seriously.......you have some sort of a problem....☺)

Wow that makes me hungry........ 

So anyways, back to talking about peanut butter, did you know that........sorry I can't finish this post.........I can't wait any longer. I need some peanut butter.......NOW! 

(15 minutes later......)

Hey guys! I'm back! Did you miss me? I had to eat some peanut butter before I could finish this post (lol). Now back to the topic of peanut butter. Where was I? Oh right.....did you know that If you put all the peanut butter Americans eat annually into the Grand Canyon, it would fill it up?!?! Isn't that amazing? I just love peanut butter!!!!

Starbuck's Secret Menu

Yesterday, I found out that Starbucks has a Secret Menu!  So today I went to Starbucks and ordered off of it!  I am so excited!  That is so cool!  Next time you go to Starbucks, you should totally order off of it!!  I got the Oreo Frappucino!  It was delicious!  You have to try it!  

Anyways, below, I put the menu, so that you can use it:

Pretty awesome, right?!?!

Me and Chocolate

I LOVE CHOCOLATE.

It's true.  I love, love, love chocolate.  Don't you?  I love everything about it!!!!  From it's wonderful taste, to it's wonderful, rich, creamy-ness.  Just talking (or in this case, typing) about it makes me hungry!   So, why am I posting about it?  I actually don't know.  I had a sudden inspiration to just post about it.  If you're a blogger, you know what I mean about sudden, and often random inspirations.  If you're not a blogger, you probably have no clue what I'm talking about.  Oh, well. That's ok.  Maybe someday!!!  Anyways, here is a picture of some chocolate.......just because.  ;)

YUM, YUM, YUM!!!!!!!!!
