Sometimes

 Sometimes I type really hard on my laptop so it sounds like a type writer.

Sometimes I plan 4 crafts to do but don't have the time at all.

Sometimes I would love a twin instead of a queen bed, but I'm too lazy to put pictures on ksl.

Sometime I put my ipod on shuffle and don't know any of the music it plays me.

Sometimes I have a messy room, but despise putting away laundry.

Sometimes I study all the time.

Sometimes I want to walk somewhere far away.

Sometimes I miss working at the daycare with all my favorite 2 year olds.

Sometimes I think too much when I should just be doing.

Sometimes I write down new blog names and am probably going to change it.

Sometimes I always sing "something in the water" by brooke fraser.

Sometimes I ramble.

but most times I wear mustaches.

To ombre or not to ombre.

I get bored with my hair a lot.
I try and spice things up? Make some bows, some heaband, get a brazillian blowout..
anything to spark my interest, but I'm getting bored again.

I'm thinking about doing some ombre?

I think it's pretty cute.
but also I have shortish hair.
and also I'm worried that by the time I fully commit...it'll be outdated?

I guess I'm asking for opinions..
How much longer do you think this ombre hair fad will last..
and are there other hair trends coming into play that I'm just totally missing?
cause...I'd like to know bout 'em!

topic switch.

So my best friend, Benjamin? Yeah he's a cool kid.
Well, the fun thing is, he has an older brother who's also pretty cool.
And they make movies. They're on facebook and on youtube.
ohhh and they're hillarious.
{liking their facebook,
and watching their youtube videos wouldn't be a dumb thing to do}

Long story short they are starting a new season of shorts.
And the first episode comes out tonight!! {eeek!}
They're having a little launch party..
and if you happen to be in the Utah county area you should come!
We're going to be at the UVU library, you can email me for deets.

Come, it'll be a good time.

Want some cupcake with your lemon?

One time I liked to bake.
Things weren't always delicious, and definitely not always pretty.
but the love was there.

I get giddy when I see batter rise, becoming fluffy and light.
I wish for cupcake tins, sprinkles, and gel based food coloring.
I adore hearing of happy taste buds and satisfied tummy's.

What's better than baking a mouth watering cupcake? baking it with my dear sister in laws.

We made some great summer-y cupcakes yesterday.
They were lemonade cupcakes. Yeah, I know.

I saw some pink lemonade frosting in the cake aisle, and I was sold.
although I will openly admit
I have nooo idea what the difference between regular and pink lemonade is..
{hit me up if you have the answer}


Since Harmon's was out of Duncan Hines (my favorite box mix brand) lemon I went with Betty Crocker.
Pink lemonade frosting by pilsbury, and lemon head candies to top it off.
{so much lemon so little time..}

Nonly were they delicious, I think they turned out pretty cute too.

I looked for some paper umbrellas, but had no such luck, but they'd be a fun addition right?

These cupcakes we're superb. I highly reccomend it.
I'm also going to make you aware I plan on using the heck out of my "what's new cupcake?" book.
expect to see lots of summer cupcakes. 
{if you have any summery cupcake ideas, tell me! I'm totally looking for inspiration!}


And as if baking cupcakes wasn't enough I also got to see my darling nephew.
He's the cutest baby. Ever.

I told you so...

Sorry about those things

Sorry I've been absent.

I spent this last memorial day in a lovely place called Lake Powell.

It's on the list of my favorite places to be.

check it out if you haven't. 

I'll put up picture's soon!

Long story short my best friend makes grade A mix cd's.

he always seems to find songs that I don't know exist, 

but as soon as they're notes touch my ear drum, my heart falls in love. 

This song was on my most recent mix cd.

It is off of my newest favorite commercial.

this one.

it left me with a big smile saying "awwww"

"Porch Song"- The Meemies

this song is way too fun. although the music video is border line child slavery..so watch at your own risk. 

ENJOY.
