I like talented and random people

Last night Kandyce told me about a talent show at Sweet Cakes..And we went... A lot of people were down from Utah for Christmas break ..

so they decided to have a talent show..

Chuck Linton wrote some songs and preformed them with his "choir" He's hilarious!

It was hilarious.. there was even a freak dancing Santa!

You just don't see that every day.

Then we went to an ugly sweater party and pretty much hung out with friends the rest of the night.

Oh. my. gosh!!! This is why Amy P and I would be best friends.

Fave line "I was walking and I felt something icky"

Who am I kidding! The whole thing is funny!! " I was thinking with my lady parts" "B%$#$es be crazy!" !! HAHA

(This whole episode is hilarious... you should watch it!)

finished!!!

Oh, it is done!!

Finished it up on Saturday.

I love how it turned out!! And I want one my size!!! Hope Jossy likes it!

O lil Christmas Tree

This is my first lil' Christmas tree..

(bought on sale at Target.. yup, mom's proud of me)

You may notice some business cards on there... that would be because when people come over to our house we have them contribute something to the tree.. so far we have Brad's AC/heating business card, a Kay Jewelers card, and we even willed one of our home teachers (that was leaving on a mission that next week) to leave a fully stamped Golden Spoon card.. haha! Just teaching him some sacrifice before he goes.

There is also a feather left over from making headbands, and a piece of wood from the couch when Brad, Margo and I fixed it.

Awe, lil memories....

And of course all the bird ornaments I had been collecting over the past couple years.

It's random.. but I LOVE it!

I've done quite a bit to the living room in the past month or two.. thought I'd post a pic.
-Painted the walls (fave color blue)
-Hung up the red mirror, shelves and candle sconces
-got an entertainment center and tv

Next steps...
- desk for the corner
-sofa table for behind the couch
-a real coffee table
-some more things to hang on the wall

that just ain't right

Yesterday as I was leaving for work I walked out in the hallway and saw this...........Do you see that?.....Here is a closer picture... it's a freaky lil man!!!! Brad and Margo thought it would be funny to bring it home and put it somewhere to scare me. (Especially because of the freaky events that have been happening around here) Luckily it wasn't staying standing on the carpet cause they would have put it by my door.. there was even talks of putting it in the passenger seat of my car... that would have really not been okay... Buuuhhhhh...(that's me getting the chills) look how freaky he is!! I guess it was at Brad's cousins house and they just had to bring it home to play a joke on me.. Then, last night I was making cookies and for some reason just seeing this view of the lil man scared me more than seeing him in the morning.. it totally caught me off guard every time I turned around.

Hahah good one guys!

(I thought of putting it in the bathroom or right outside the bedroom door to surprise her but I was in too much of a hurry)

apron: an adventure in miniature sewing

I found these adorable napkins at Anthropologie on sale. I am making it into a lil apron for my cutie cousin Joss for Christmas. Her parents are getting her a play kitchen! Hope it turns out as cute as I'm imagining! I will post a pic of the finished project in a couple days!

Salvation who?

freaky things are happening... and I don't like it...

we (brad, margo and i) had a lil prank call thing happen to us last night.. it was freaky cause of how it all played out.. freaky coincidences that made it way worse of a prank.. (we know it was one of our friends with an iphone app that could get people in a lot of trouble.. but just how it all played out was... blah.. chills!!!)

Then this morning I was blow drying my hair and my blow dryer started sparking and sparks flew at my stomach, chest and neck. (luckily I only wear my undies and bra while getting ready, so no clothes caught on fire).. but I do have some marks on my skin from the sparks--my goodness it was traumatic! I turned it off and threw it on the counter and then decided to unplug it.

She's dead now.. I thought she had died a couple of weeks ago when she wouldn't even turn on.. that fixed itself I guess.. but now this.... devastating...

Oh well.. I'm going to have to get a new one today.. maybe this one...

most random of weekends-----
Friday night, Margs and I went on a much needed girls night dinner to catch up with each other! (since she has been gone a lot!) Then we went and hung out with Kandyce at a house she was babysitting kids at.. Patrick was there too and the 9 year old girl was crushing on him and saying they were going to get married and giving him love letters...that was pretty entertaining!!
Then Saturday morning went to Jessica's baby shower! That was fun and there was some really good food!
After all that I went and picked up Sydney and we went Christmas shopping... We went to Anthropologie... let me just say I want everything in there.. Heaven knows I can't afford it but I have a plan. I am going to work the sales and get really good deals on stuff! We then went to Cafe Rio for dinner and ended the day with a nice reflexology massage! It felt amazing!
Later that night my friend Taylor came over and we made french toast and laughed so much I had hiccups the rest of the night!
It was fun and yet the most random of weekends.
Can't believe Christmas is in 10 days!!!!! CRAZY!
