No, not the singer....

.... I mean, the food. Day 11- A picture of something you hate. Meatloaf. Just looking at it kinda makes me gag. The thing is, its not just meatloaf. I have a weird issue with clumped meat. I know it sounds really weird, but meatloaf, meatballs... anything except hamburger!

Can you spell T-R-O-U-B-L-E???

10: a pic of the person you do the most messed up things with

Again, with Miss Troester.... If I ever go to jail, its probably going to be a result of some insane dare she put me through, or she will be right next to me. Our lives are entertaining, and probably a bit obnoxious to those around us, we have stupid inside jokes that are only funny to us. We have words that only we get, looks that only we understand the meanings.... We get into things at grocery stores, we make inappropriate jokes at very inappropriate times. Its a good thing we think we are funny... cuz we'd be screwed if we didnt. :)

Daddy's Girl

9: pic of the person who has gotten you through the most

My dad has been my rock for most of my life. Although, I definitely went through a time where I thought I HATED him I look back now and am so grateful for everything he has done for me. Whenever life starts gets dark, I always know my dad will make everything sunny again. No one believes in me more than him, he is always there when I need him and always knows exactly how to make me feel better. I love him more than I can say, and Im so happy he's my daddy!

Cake anyone??

8: a picture that makes you laugh

This is my awesome niece Brea Jo, she is seriously one of the funniest kids ever. She is witty, and has the attitude of a 17 year old, and loves Justin Bieber. :) Every Sunday for dinner we go to Brock's parents and every Sunday you can find Brea in the kitchen 'helping' in the kitchen, usually eating olives, or cucumbers... or cake batter. Love this little girl.

B.F.F.F.

Day 7- a pic of someone who knows too much about you!
Miss Caroline Suzanne Troester.... this little chica knows ALLL my deepest secrets. For some reason I have no issue telling her EVERYTHING. Which, I mean is not a bad thing. She is my best friend, and that is what best friends are for. I am very lucky to not only have her in my life, but to be able to call her my best friend. She is one of the most loyal, fun and sincere people I have ever met and I know she will remain in my life for a verrrrrry long time. :) Here's to a life of jokes, rants, tears and laughs... and lots of memories. Love you ma.

S.U.D.S

For those of you who read my blog, and have a love for sushi.. if you have never been to Simply Sushi you have to put it on your list of places to go. If someone offered me a trip to Mexico or a lifetime supply of spicey upside down shrimp... think Im insane, but I would choose the shrimp! Its like heaven, in shrimp form.

YUMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Favorite Memory

I have a lot of catching up to do today... Day 5 is a pic of my favorite memory... How can I pick just one? I dont know. Im still (as im writing this) contemplating which one to put..... Im gonna go with a pretty large span of memories, that took place in one location. For almost 2 years after high school me, Amber and Taycia moved into a 3 bedroom condo in Bluffdale. 3 girls in one house= 2 years of total awesomeness!!! Seriously, I will never forget this time in my life. It was full of good times and a lot of liquor. :) Luckily, we are still great friends, we actually all work together. They both will always hold a huge place in my heart, and sometimes I think we all wish at one point or another we still lived there. Ahh, what good times we had :)

Pictures

Here is me, with my gauges. You really cant tell like at all that they are gauged.... Hopefully when I go bigger you'll be able to tell a little better
Here is my mom getting her Tragus pierced! She was freaking out, but she was a trooper she did good.

Here is Traci getting her nose pierced!!!

This one is my favorite... you can see the GIANT needle in her nose!! :)

And the finished product! (which you cant really see very well)

Anyways, the tattoo convention was fun... it was kinda not worth the price, but im glad we went. After being surrounded by tattoo's and tattoo artists we decided we want to come up with a family tattoo that represents all of us. Ill keep you updated with that... we have some pretty cool ideas, and Im hoping we go through with it. Its the perfect idea for my quarter sleeve I want! :)

.....Continued......

So, I took quite a few pictures this weekend.. to post on my previous post, but I forgot my camera cord today so I have to wait till I get home to upload the pictures. In the mean time, here's my weekend in a nutshell... we went to the tattoo convention on Saturday which was really fun. I met some really cool people ans saw some really amazing pieces of art. Tattoo's are so amazing, and they tell such awesome stories. They are like colorful journal entries for everyone to read. I've decided I want to get mine touched up, and hopefully add a little to it. Im just not sure what. There was one that I still cant get out of my head, it was an arm piece and it was a black and white of this picture (which is one of my favorites and thats probably why im so obsessed with it) with a naval ship on one side and a helicopter with parachutes falling from it on the other. It was an awesome tattoo. I wish I had the creativity to come up with something like that. I really want a quarter sleeve, but I dont know what to do, or even what to start with! So instead of getting tattoo's I got my ears gauged. Im just starting so they are small, just a 14 right now, but in 6 weeks I can go get them stretched bigger. Im so excited about this, I've always thought they are so hot if they arent huge so Im glad I finally got started. Im planning on only going 2 sizes bigger at the most. My mom got her tragus (I dont know how to spell it...) pierced and my aunt got her nose pierced, so we went to the tattoo convention and left with piercings :) It was a perfect day.

I didnt get to making my Lady Gaga cupcakes, So I am still open to any and all suggestions!!!! :) PLEASE!!!!
I also have some pictures I need to upload of some goodies I got off the sweetapolita blog I posted about a few weeks ago. I will get to uploading pics tonight!!!

Just so you dont think I forgot...

Day 4 is a pic of your night.... well I dont usually just take random pictures so I dont have one to go along with this day, so instead of a pic of my night im changing it a bit. On Monday I will post pics of my weekend! The tattoo convention is at the salt palace tomorrow and my mom, my aunt Traci and I will be in attendance. (hopefully leaving with a new tattoo... but sshhhh, dont tell!)
Also, while idolizing Lady Gaga during the Grammy's last Sunday my sister's best friend gave me a spectacular idea to make cupcakes inspired by Gaga!! I I may get to that this weekend, but probably not to be honest haha. I still need ideas. Im thinking red velvet cake with some red chocolate in the middle (so when they bake, the chocolate will melt and oooze out when biten!) ((Kinda gross, but totally GaGa!)) But that is where all my ideas end, im thinking of maybe melting some chocolate and making lightning bolts or something... but I know I can get crazier than that, I mean these are GAGA CUPCAKES! So, for my few fellow followers if you have any crazy ideas PLEASE let me know. Embrace your inner gaga! :)

**Side note, I know not everyone (Caroline!!) like's Gaga, but you have to help me! Even if you hate her, you know she's out there... give me some out there, Gaga ideas! :) Thanks!!!!

GLEE!!!!!!

Day 3- A pic of the cast from your favorite show


This one was a tough choice between Jersey Shore and Glee, but I figured since I already have a picture on here of the J.S. crew I'd go with Glee! I cannot tell you how much crap I get for LOVING this show! I cant help it, its so addicting. I have crushes on all the boys, and all the girls are hotties haha... they sing amazing songs, and they just beat Elvis Presley's record of the most #1 singles; he had 108 they have 113. How can they not be awesome? I force Brock to watch it with me every week, he is adamant that he hates it but Im just glad he can tolerate it enough to sit through an hour with me. Anyways, I LOVE GLEE!!!! :)

Day # 2

Day 2- A picture of you and the person you’ve been closest with for the longest

This is me and my cousin Parker circa 1994. :)

I met Parker Todd Russell on January 10th 1990, the day he was born. My mom and his mom are mirror twins, so Parker and I spent A LOT of time together growing up. Our Grandparents had a house and tons of property up on Oakley, Utah and Parker and his family lived basically in their backyard. Almost every weekend I would sleep over at their house with them. In 1999 (I think) Todd (Parker's dad) got transferred to Avon Lake, Ohio for work. They have lived there ever since. I spent an entire summer there between 8th and 9th grade and at least once a year I visit Ohio, or they visit Utah. Its definitely not the same, but he's still one of my best friends. Now he has a girlfriend, who I adore, and they've tossed around the idea of moving back to Utah. Im trying to convince them to get out here, but its hard. Until then, we will just have to keep up these expensive visits! :) Love you Parker!
