June on Instragram

June 1st:  Danny becoming one with nature.  We went on a drive up
Big Cottonwood Canyon.  It was lovely.
June 1st - As I said, lovely.
June 1st - Also on this day, I attended my niece's ballet recital.
It was beyond adorable.
June 5th - Elaine Bradley from the Neon Trees performed at a work
gathering of mine.  It was very cool.
June 7th - A burning bush on Parley's trail.  
June 7th - Somehow, along our walk we crossed the border.

June 7th - Little wildflowers basking in the setting sunlight along Parley's trail.  
Danny and I have wanted to walk along Parley's trail in Sugar House for
months now, so I suppose this outing could be considered a success. However,
while it had pretty views, it was also a dog trail, making it rather
disgusting.  Many dogs felt the need to relieve themselves, if you know
what I mean ,and many dog owners felt the need to turn a blind
eye and let it be.  Gross.
June 15th - For our family reunion, the kids were suppose to dress up
as their favorite super heroes.  Baby C came as a mini Clark Kent.
So much cuteness, I can barely handle it.
June 15th - We went to the Chalk Art Festival.  I found this fishing
chalk art piece rather impressive and it made me think of my dad.
June 22nd - Taking a moment to document the super moon.
June 24th - It's been a incredibly hot summer. Unfortunately, one evening
our power went out for about 5 hours, meaning no AC.  We used
our best survival skills and cooled off with some gelato, and
 went to see a movie.
June 29th - Date Afternoon!  Danny and I went out to eat
Chinese food at Cindy Lee's Cafe for lunch.  This happy little
Buddha greeted us.  We then went to the temple.  Quite a
nice afternoon.

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

By
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...

Birthday Week!

By
This week is my birthday week, or should I say birth week.  However that sounds too much like birthing is occurring and that is not the case.  (Don't get any ideas, Danny and I have only been married for 5.5 months.)  Anyway, I firmly believe in celebrating birthdays for the whole week, because why not? Talena and I have a tradition each year that is the kick off for my birthday celebration.  You see, Talena and I were born 12 days apart.  On the midpoint day between our birthdays we go out to dinner to celebrate.  We always try to go some where we have never been before.  This year we went to the Citrus Grill, which was very delicious.  (Special thanks to Eliza for recommending the place.)  We had fun dining, laughing and sharing secrets, because that is what girls do. My dinner...doesn't it just make your mouth water. Talena Balena and Me. PS  We did have a funny little mishap with the dessert.  We got strawbe...

One of Those Nights

By
You know the time when you turn the corner too sharp and gouge one of your toes on the retro 70's border that lines your home and apparently you have really good blood circulation in your feet, because your toe starts bleeding profusely.  In an effort to stop the bleeding, you limp to the kitchen to grab a paper towel to clean up your poor toe only to track blood all over the carpet.  (But then, luckily the husband comes and helps clean up the blood trail, your sad, little toe and gets you a band-aid.)  So once you have recovered from your messy injury, your really nice husband makes you a smoothie to make you feel better, only for you to drip it down the front of you on one of your favorite shirts.  Yeah, it's been one of those nights.  Sigh. In other news, last week I went to the musical "Little Women" with Talena.  I wrote a review for the Utah Theater Bloggers Association, which you can read here .  It's been awhile since I've done any reviewin...
