Conference Weekend, Dragons and The Fam

By
Conference weekend is family time.  On Saturday evening most of the women on my side of the family got together while the men went to the priesthood session.  We got dinner from Costa Vida and sat around and visited as well as being entertained by my hilarious nephews.  The only pictures I got of the evening was when my nephews Super R and B. Anu were trying on Super R's Halloween dragon costume.

Super R the Dragon  (Can you believe my sister-in-law JanaRae made this!)

B. Anu all dressed up.

This is what B. Anu did when I told him to smile.
 On Sunday after the second session we went to my parents' house for dinner.  We had a a little birthday party for my sister Michele, since her birthday is in a couple of weeks.  Danny was the photographer for the evening.  It seems all the pictures are of the nephews.  They are just too cute.

help from B. Anu and Super R.

The fruit snacks were pretty good.

Noelle made the cake, she put two bundt cakes together to make a pumpkin.

B. Anu and I approve of the pumpkin cake.

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

Things that brought me joy this week

By
This past week was Melina's birthday!  Since she lives far away, Talena and I put together a hula party in a box and mailed it to her.  We found all of these treasures at the dollar section at the front of Target.  My favorite moment was when we heard a lady gripe about how the discount section was full of a bunch of useless stuff that no one would buy.  At that very moment we turned the corner, with our hand basket full of awesome stuff we had found.  We just smiled. The party supplies The party agenda I was having a bit of a low evening and Danny suggested we go get my latest craving Sonic blasts.   (Ice cream + candy + whipped cream.)  I know you aren't supposed to feed sorrows with food, but this particular evening I made an exception.  Whoever made that Sonic blast was heaven sent.  It had more Reese's peanut butter cups than actual ice cream.  It's like they sensed my heavy heart and tried to heal it with choc...
