History of Creativity Project



For my History of Creativity final project, we were asked to do something that relates to the class and pushes our own creativity. Vague, right? I hate vague, but I enlisted the help of these lovely ladies to create...three cakes that summarize the class! We've got the castle cake to represent the old world monarchy, the Bible cake to represent the printing press, and the US flag cake to represent modern democracy.

Guess what else? I FINISHED MY FINALS, and it's GRADUATION TIME! I didn't get nostalgic till I finished my last final. Now I'm getting all sentimental, but I'm really excited about the idea of not having any more homework! Bring on summer goals! I'm starting with finishing Harry Potter (I've only read through #4), and I've signed up for a cake decorating class in May! Wish me luck!

Easter Weekend

We went to Brianhead for Easter weekend!
With these fun people!
And it was gorgeous!
And I got to hang out with this cool guy!
And there was a ton of snow! Happy Easter!

We Found A New Apartment!

And it's beautiful, and it's new(er), and it doesn't have a popcorn ceiling that falls on us if we hit it at all, and Landon won't hit his head on the ceiling because it's TALL, and it's not in a basement, and there's a DISHWASHER and a GARBAGE DISPOSAL, and there won't be a creepy old man that sits outside of it for no apparent reason, and no one can call it a "dive" or an "asbestos trap," and there won't randomly be standing water in the bathroom-or the laundry room, and my mom won't say, "It's a good thing they're in love" when describing it, and there are doors on the closets, and it looks like a HOME and I'M SOO EXCITED! I don't want to study! I want to PACK! We've lived here for a year and a half! Let's get a move-on! :)

Birthdays are My Favorite


-Brick Oven birthday party with some of Landon's extended family! (This is about 1/4 of the crew. Sorry we couldn't get everyone in the pic but thanks for coming!)-

I'm 22. I'm pumped. It's a great age. We celebrated in a big way.
-Spent an entire Saturday redeeming coupons with Andrea which gave us free Orange Julius smoothies, free Red Robin burgers, and free Cold Stone ice cream. Delicious.
-Landon made me breakfast and gave me fabulous gifts. A man with taste and a desire to spoil his wife. (Two very important things in a marriage companion). We went to Tucanos for dinner and got a Cold Stone cake for dessert because normal cake is straight up NASTY. Hung out with Janelle and laughed all evening. Fabulous.
-Phone calls, cards, gifts, messages, meals, desserts, very much appreciated.
-I have wonderful people in my life. Thanks for making my birthday so great!

The Life and Times

1. We went to the Jazz Game, and we won! It was great fun! It was my first one! I like to run....and play in the sun...Haha
2. Landon got a half-tuition scholarship for next year because of his work in the Entrepreneur club. I'm so proud of him!
3. This semester, my capstone class has been dedicated to a national advertising campaign competition, and our client has been State Farm. Well, on Friday, my team won our school competition which means we get to go to regionals! I'm excited, our team worked hard, and I'm proud of the result, but regionals are the same day as graduation. So, I graciously offered to NOT to go. :) My hope is this I can be done with the project which will give me more hours in the week to work and do my other classes, oh yeah, and graduate. It should work out very well!
4. Andrea and I spent a super fun day yesterday running around town redeeming our coupons for free stuff for our birthday. We got free Cold Stone ice cream and a free smoothie. Her Relief Society activity fed us Cafe Rio for lunch, so we were too full to redeem our Red Robin burger coupon, but we will just have to extend that to another day lol, life is hard.
5. We got a beautiful 100-year-old antique kitchen table and 4 chairs for 50 bucks! I don't think the sellers knew what they were getting rid of! It's sweet!
6. I love my life.
