Weekend Trip to St. George

Here is a photo journey of our little weekend trip to St. George.  Danny and I went down there to visit my sister Michele and her husband Dan.  We hoped to catch a ray of sunshine, which was no where to be seen in Northern Utah.

On arrival, my sister gave me an early birthday gift, yay!
Knowing my love for holidays, Michele and Dan gave me Easter decorations.
Michele has the same love for holidays, I think it runs in the family.
Much playing of the Wii occurred throughout the weekend.  Michele and I
played the dancing game, which was fun but tiring.
We also went to the Dinosaur Museum.  Michele makes a lovely Vanna.
These fossils are a replica of a ancient reptile found in England, of all places.
Me and Danny by a wall of dinosaur footprints.
We went to lunch at 25 Main Cafe, yummy.
We went geocaching for the first time, which is a treasure hunt with a GPS.
The GPS led us to this lovely spot.

Michele found the cache and Danny opened it.  The people before us had just
left a hair tie.  Lame.  Being the givers we are, we added to the cache and hid it again.
And now for a pretty landscape, because St. George is pretty.  The End.

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

I've become a finals widow, if you will, meaning Danny is crazy busy trying to finish up the semester.  This has given me extra time to use my crafty skills to get our place Christmas ready.  My first creations were these little paper/foam trees.  I've seen a few variations online of this craft. I put my own little twist on it.  They are really easy to make, just takes some time. Here is what you need: Scrap paper Hot glue gun 1" Circle punch Foam cone (at most craft stores) Toothpicks Note:  You are going to go to the craft store to buy the little foam cone and you will see styrofoam glue and you will think to yourself that would be a good thing to buy for this project.  Don't!  I got the styrofoam glue and it didn't work at all.  Just go with your trusty glue gun, it won't let you down. I think it's pretty self-explanatory by looking at the picture.  You just punch circles out from the scrap paper.  Then hot glue th...

The End of the Road

There is a time when things fulfill their purpose and that is how I've been feeling with this blog of mine. When I started it, I needed my own little spot to share my thoughts and random stuff I found online. However, having two blogs has become excessive. It has been a good run (me and this little blog) and thanks for joining me. For now on, I will just be posting on my family blog . It's a private blog, but send me a message or a request if you would like to view it. Thanks to those who have taken the time to read my silly thoughts or look at pictures of my cute kiddo or some craft I made. It means a lot to me. Signing off, Jannifer

The Christmas Box

Remember how forever ago I said I would post a tutorial on how to fold these cute boxes.  Sigh, life is busy.  But I am here to fulfill my promise, even if it is a bit belated.  We had a Super Saturday at church with classes we could take.  My awesome friend, Becky, taught us how to create these, so I give her all the credit. What you need, paper, scissors, ruler pencil and some type of adhesive. 1.On the blank side of your paper draw an X from each corner, using a ruler. 2. Fold the bottom corner to the  center. 3. Fold the bottom corner one more  time up to the center. 4. Now you are  going to do the exact  two folds from steps 2 and 3 to the  opposing top corner, so your  paper will look like this. 5.  Unfold your paper and make the same folds to left and right corners that haven't been folded yet.  So once again, fold the point to the middle. 6.  Do a second fold to th...
