The week recap

My trip was so incredible. I had planned to write out each day, but by day four, all of the days mixed together and I couldnt remember what happened when, hehe.


This is the first day. We went on the new carousel and it was so cute! Below is My new friend Belle! I met her because she is my grandma's neighbor's grandaughter. They are such fun people! I love them so much!












Here we are in Las Vegas! I havent been there in so long, I cannot begin to tell you how eager I was to get there!





EEE! The Betsey Johnson outlet! I died inside a little bit. Everything was pink, and glitter. Of course, I could not afford $400 dollar dresses.
One day, I will go on these rides!






I saw this truck and smiled. It had to be photographed.




Here we are at the tea house. (I had orange lemonade-yum!) The food was good, and the decorations were so fun to look at! There were walls completely covered in tea cups, and every single one was for sale.





We all had to try on hats!


Here is my absolutely amazing grandma (Nan)!



Here is Sue, she is such a fun and amazing woman! I loved to hear her stories while we ate lunch! I was so devastated when I was editing my pictures and realized the picture I had taken of Belle didnt work!




Here we are, another day at 25 Main. Of all of the many times I had eaten here, never once had I gone for breakfast- until now. I fell in love with these cuckoo clocks! I wish I had seen them before they were all painted blue.


Oh, yes. And then the food arived. The food was bigger than my head!



This is Tuacahn. We went to see grease here. I loved it, and the movie! I had never seen Grease before, so it was fun to watch the movie, see the play, and watch the movie again. Thank you so much for letting me steal your movie for the week Shar! Shar is another incredible neighbor. She is so kind and fun, and talented! She showed me the quilts she makes and they are incredible! It hadnt occured to me until now to take pictures of them.





I love custard. Very much. I dont think I need to say anything else.

Just Visiting...

I literally walked in the door, and I cannot tell you how good it feels to be home! I had so so much fun in St. George with my grandparents, and I miss them already too! This is so biter sweet. As soon as I am unpacked, and settled in, I would love to post pictures and just help you all catch up on the amazing vacation I had! Unfortunately, we planned this trip so I would have one week to get back into the rhythm of things and then I leave for girl's camp. Luckily, girls camp doesnt last a week. Dont take me wrong, I love girls camp every year, its just... I dont know how I feel about being gone this long with only around seven days, you know?

What I Wore 7-7-11

Today was another fun day at my grandmas house. On the way there, my mom and I stopped at Forever 21 to return the most amazing ring...that was broken. It was a compass! Long story short, they didnt have anymore compass rings, so we decided to keep it until we have a chance to go to another location. Bummer, right?

Sunday's Style 7-3-11





Can you believe I have owned this skirt for three months, and today is the first time I have worn it? I dont understand why, because I really liked it when I bought it and still love it! Hehe, maybe my mom is right- I have too many clothes!

Rainbow Cake DIY










Here is my DIY on making a rainbow cake. It is super easy and fun!



Supplies:






  • cake mix


  • cake pan( I use round nine inch)


  • food coloring


bowls (to seperate cake colors)





Step one:



Follow instructions on the box to make batter.




Step two:
Seperate mix into as many colors as you want. I.E. six colors = six bowls.




Step three:
Mix in the coloring. Remember: the more color you mix in, the brighter the cake.




Step four:add one color/ layer at a time. You may have to "help" it spread out, but it doesnt have to be perfect. This is what it looked like when I put it into the oven.

Step five:frost the cake. I like to use white frosting, because it makes a good contrast between the inside colors.




You may have noticed I didnt use all of the colors I Made...that is because I made a second cake. Hope you liked my DIY!
