Jazz vs. LA Clippers

Alright so I know I already posted once about us going to a jazz game like a week or so ago but.. I just have to post about this one because it was seriously the coolest thing ever. So once again Tyler's work took us to this game only this time we got to sit in the seats that are right behind the announcers right at half court.  The announcer guy was literally in the seat right in front of me.  The players had to check in there to sub into the game and they were seriously like 3 ft from us crazy... Thay are HUGE...

Jerry Sloan he is right there wow

                                                Basically the whole starting lineup...

Seriously no Zoom even...

Haunted Train Ride

Alright so last thursday before Halloween my family went on this little haunted train ride in Lindon.  What it is is this family that has huge houses and they all live next to each other, well they built train tracks all throughout their backyards and front yards anyway it's pretty awesome.  It is just this little tiny cart train thingy that you sit in and go for a little ride.  Here are some fun little pictures :D

Cakes # 2

Alright so once again 3 more posts today wow i need to keep it updated every day... So I had my second cake class this week.. We could do cupcakes or a cake, so I chose to decorate cupcakes, we learned how to make a clown, but we didn't have any clown heads so i didn't get a picture of it, so i didn't really decorate my cupcakes with much of what we learned.  But we did learn how to make your frosting come out in stripes, you just paint the coloring in the inside of the bags in stripes and then insert your white frosting and this is what it looks like...

Again the purple comes out clue on the camera
so it really is purple,green, and purple and orange.

The solid green ones were done with
a flower that we learned how to make.

Halloween Dinner

So every year we do a Halloween Dinner usually on Halloween or the day before but this year my parents are going out of town so we did it this past sunday!! We had a casserole cooked inside of a pumpkin, jello, scones, pumpkin dessert, salad and homemade rootbeer.. the food was amazing!! We all decorated pumpkins as well, they were super cute!  It was a fun sunday! The skull picture has our honey butter in it yum!

Ballroom Dance

Alright so we went to my brothers ballroom dance competition this past saturday and he did so good!!! This is his first year dancing and has only been dancing since august and he was so cute!!  There were lots of dancers there!! My cousin was actually there as well, he has been performing with the same partner for 4 years they did really well!.  Here are some pictures..

My first cake

Ok so i decorated my first cake tonight at my class.  Pretty sure it isn't so pretty haha... we did a rainbow one and yeah didn't turn out so great... well... here it is.  Also the colors are sort of funny it is supposed to be red, yellow, green and purple but instead it looks like it does in the picture... orange,yellow,green and blue :D
Yeah i see the frosting smudges but you wouldn't believe how easy a cake falls apart when you are trying to get the frosting smooth!! Crazy but... all in all it was a good class it is really fun and funny!! I am already better than i was when I started!!

SNAKES AHHH

So once again I posted 3 different posts so keep on reading!!! It was a great weekend! 
Ok so I absolutely HATE Snakes.   And well my brother crazy as he is bought one for a pet eww gross.  I can't believe my mother let him buy it to be honest haha well she did and it is so nasty.  It just slithers around in it's cage and when it's out all over the floor and peoples arms.  Well my nephew Lincoln loves it, he lets it crawl on his arms and everything well i scream when it even gets close to me so, tonight we were up at my parents house and Ty and Alex had it out and were playing with it letting it slither all over their arms.  They kept trying to make me touch it so i got up the courage enough to barely touch it.... it was so gross.  Well I started to think about it and i decided that if my 15 month nephew could let it crawl on his arms so could I...
WHAT WAS I THINKING?  Well here is what happened SCREAM SCREAM SCREAM AHHHHHHH

OK so these are real live facial expressions !!
Initial reaction totally screaming and totally
tense. 

The face just keeps getting a little better as it crawls up my arm.

It's barely touching me and i'm still freaking out.... yeah totally gross....

                                     It was Licking my arm still SCREAMING!!

Me telling Tyler to hurry and get it off of me.... It was on my arm for like
30 seconds haha and that was most definitely long enough... Link you are so much braver than me. 

Tyler had no problem holding it... he let it crawl all up and down his arms nasty nasty.... i made him wash his arms off haha. 
So we also watched it get fed tonight and it eats frozen mice... well Alex heated it up and it was the nastiest thing i have ever seen if you haven't seen a snake eat... you need to watch it at least once in your lifetime.

MOAB

This was where we stayed!!

This weekend my dad took our family down to moab.  We had a blast we went four-wheeling and we rented a Rhino which was very different than we were all used to but still fun.  We went on 2 different rides the first one we went to was a little bit easier than the second but they were both very fun.  We love to ride on the slick rock it's very different and looks a lot scarier than it actually is.  Tyler did awesome on his first real four-wheeling experience!!! He is now officially a part of the family haha :D

Nana and Link Day 1!

Tyler gettin all pumped up for the ride!

Lincoln after riding for about 1 1/2 hours

he was dead to the world haha so cute

This is everyone at Gemini Bridges it was really cool it's these two huge bridges made of rock, you don't want to get too close to the edge.

       Us at Gemini Bridges!

                                                     Ty did so great!! I'm glad

                                                 he had so much fun because it's something

                                                   I have done since I was 8 yrs old.

Monster hill ty just made it up!

This was a rocky spot, ty and Alex's

friend James first timers did awesome

.

This is the Beautiful Rhino!  Papa and

                 my sister Nicole and Lincoln are in it Link really

                liked it. He fell asleep on our second ride also! He

                       was such a good boy.

Tyler posing for the camera!

Isn't he so handsome in his

helmet?

      

These last couple of pictures were taken next to this huge arch that was way far down if ya fell but we hiked out to it and it was awesome but very high up and the boys didn't seem to mind. This is my brother Alex who hiked clear out to the edge and scared us all. Ty in the picture just above this one to the right was up one ledge higher than Alex but posed for the camera no fear at all. Boys :D Some of the hills we went up and down were pretty steep but tyler did it and didn't get hurt it was so much fun, we all had a blast!! I have been learning how to ride the motorcycle, and I have actually gotten pretty good i'm really starting to enjoy riding it a lot more than I used to.
