On A Sunday

After lunch my husband was having a sweet tooth and we were looking around the house for what we had and what we could make. I found a recipe for brownies in his family cookbook and saw we had all the ingredients! Yay!

 I was following directions and the next ingredient to put in was 1/2 cup of baking soda...?

Noticing the typo I thought I should check out the rest of the recipe and thought it weird that the brownies did not call for coco or sugar. Tempted to just throw it away I decided to experiment. I made sure to add more flour, sugar, coca and just 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.

 

Needless to say the cake turned out great!

I made sure to write down my measurements and ingredients so I can definitely make it again! 

Pictures 79 & 80

A Day at the Park

There is this boy and I absolutely love him! I watched him once because momma needed a little help and then I became hooked. Since then I ask if he can come to play with Nathan and I. 

Today we went to the park and here are a few pictures I really liked. 

As you can see Nathan loves him too! At first little one was afraid of Nathan but after day one they became best friends:)

As we were walking to the park he picked up this pinecone and did not want to put it down. 

I loved taking pictures of little one and was glad he could come play today. 

Pictures 75-78

Out for the Day...

Today I went to Midway, UT, which is about 45 mins away from Provo. It is a small town with a lot of character. I took a few pictures of the houses and office buildings that stood out to me the most. 

This is a house.

This is an Art Gallery.

This is an office building. 

This is a barn. 

Another office building. 

And right by these wonderful buildings were beautiful horses. 

Then, it was time to go home and these are pictures I took while Nathan was driving. 

The last one if my faviorite. 

So there you have it, day one of my new camera and pictures 64-74.

Becoming Katniss

I think it is funny that in my last couple of entries I apologized for not being consistent with my updates, so today I do not want to sound like a broken record...

 Since the "New Year" is shortly arriving I will make one of my many resolutions to keep up with my blog. 

I have recently joined a book club and I LOVE IT! This month we decided to read Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks. I believe it is one of his better books and if they decide to make it into a movie, I hope they do not mess it up like they did "Dear John."

I will save that soap box for another time, but now I will explain the picture. 

Though book club decided we were reading Safe Haven this month, we are also suppose to read the Hunger Games series. We have till March 2012 because that is when the first movie comes out. But I am just about done and our next meeting is not until mid January. I guess you could  say I absolutely love the books but I think it might be an understatement. If you have not yet read them, I highly recommend you do. From the beginning they grabbed my attention and I totally became the main character "Katniss." 

Therefore explaining the emotion in the picture and yes that is me. 

Over and Out...

Changing the Rules

I always seem to find myself apologizing for not keeping up with this project, then I feel bad and get even more behind. So I decided that I am going to change up the rules a little bit. For this 365 Day project, I am still going to take 365 pictures but in my own time. 

To my fans: I am so sorry for letting you down. I know that you expected to see one picture a day and I have failed to provide that for you. However I will preserver and see this project to the end and still give you 365 Pictures. 

Thank you for understanding:)
