You torched a saab like a pile of leaves

This is a post for sunday. Sunday was a good day. It was about 86 degrees so i really wanted to get outside somewhere. We went to our old favorite park that we went to back in october its was much nicer this time since it wasn't so cold. I wanted to pack a picnic but we didn't really have picnic food so i made a pot of noodles and we brought that and some cookies. It was lots of fun we are looking forward to going back and instead of sitting by the lake we might hike up to the top of some very large hills. : )

We had to pass the windmills of course. Which i love! We found a dirt road that drove right up to one. They are so big its scary. And majestic. 

Heres chad right next to one looking tiny.

Here is a close up sand/rock and lake picture. 

Sunny and warm : )

 Our yummy noodles. 

hungry chad

 And we also planted some cat grass i got from the parrs for my birthday and this is what it looked like after taking it out of the dark place it was in for a couple days. We put it in the sun and now its nice a green and normal looking. 

Every thing is fine when you're standing in the eye of the hurricane.

I had the weekend off and we actually ended up doing quite a lot of things! 

Firstly here are some late birthday pictures from my birthday package from chads family that i llooved! They got me tons of things from HomeSense one of my favorite stores in the world. My favorite gift was a set of rustic decorative keys. I've always wanted some : )

Heres me creepily ready to open my presents. 

Even the inside of the box was pretty. 

So to start the weekend i woke up super early to get ready to go to the white place flea market!! I've gone to the past 3 and this was going to be my last chance to go before we move. I did not buy anything which i didn't plan to because its quite heart breaking thinking about everything i already have that im going to have to get rid of when we move. But i loved looking around. Alsooo.. i won a door prize! We walked in and they said... you won! I got a candle and a spoon bracelet.

After the flea market we picked up barbara and went to di (of course) and some other little places with her before coming back to idaho falls. At the flea market i got super excited for crafts and saw some gold mason jars with glitter on the bottom. I've seen them on pinterest before but seeing them in person made them even cooler. So i went to di and bought some ultra cheap mason jars. And then some really pretty gold spray paint. (which finding a nice matte gold spray paint is a lot harder then you'd think. Mostly they just have ultra metallic gold)

It turned out to be one of the crafts you think will be easy and then nothing quite goes the way it should. 

Here they are outside right after spray painting.. they were beautiful. I loved them. 

Then i brought them inside to put tape around the bottom to make an even line for the gold glitter. But when i pulled the tape off the paint came right off too. It was so ruined i just pulled all the paint off. As you can see below. Real dumb. So i got creative and put a layer of modge podge on them hoping that would make it stronger.. which it did but then it looked super streaky and gave it an ugly color. So i spray painted again over the modge podge layer and called it good. 

They turned out pretty and not as scratchable but still not reliable enough to try glittering the bottom : (

And now my desk! I love love how it turned out. I found out glass is horrible to paint but furniture is still nice to me. I taped it up and spray painted and everything went smoothly and happily. I also gave the whole desk another coat of its original color. 

Shoot me with your bullet, bullet, bullet.

Well here is my Birthday Post!!! Chad tempted me into opening my presents the night before my birthday but he had everything decorated and presents wrapped so it was hard to resist. : ) He bought me some super duper cute things including a new cat book and perfume. 

Here are some pictures! 

 im not a big cake fan so chad got me some pecan pie. It was delish.

Here's some decorations.. lots of confetti 

 Balloons hung from the ceiling...

Barbara came over for my little party. 

She made gooey brownies. Made with apple sauce. 

 Just me. 

A little bit of chad and i. 

She said show me the world that's inside your head.

Welll...my birthday is in 2 days! I asked for it off so i'll get to hang out at home. Barbara is coming over and making me some brownies that are supposedly really good... and i also have the day after off so i'll get to stay up late and sleep in the next morning : ) 

And here are few pictures from today. We had some yummy corn for dinner. And then since it was sunny we took a drive to a little pond near our house and walked around. 

Fresh corn on the cob. yum. yum. 

Driving like baddys. 

Beautiful..dry.. idaho.. 

Little purple flowers.

Hold on the stars are bound to change

Yesterday chad and i were cleaning the craft room and it made me get a craft idea! I have lots of extra frames laying around and decided to paint them all black and back them with left over paper that i used in the drawers of my buffet thing. And found a home for them above the tv. 

Here it is.. (i stilll haven't fixed the bottom right drawer.. sadly.) 

And here is kitty being a cutie pie. 

That night i kind of fell in love.

Well.. Chad got accepted to grad school in Alaska at APU!!!!! 

And thats about all the interesting news that has happened since easter. : ) But one really cool thing did happen. The other day i came home from work and outside our door was a giant giant tumble weed! I thought this was pretty cool. Some may not agree... like chad. But it was a pretty impressive tumble weed.. Riiigght at our front door. cool. So anyways.. here are some simple pictures. 

Chad and the tumble weed. Sorry its suuuper blurry. : (

Kitty in the middle of meowing at me. Something she does waaay too much.

And.. chad and his cats. 

And, an attempt to take a picture together. 

You know what it feels like when you're dancing blind.

So this is my easter post! It was pretty great. Kasey came over, we dyed eggs the night before. Lots of eggs. On easter easter we all went to church and then came home and hid our easter baskets from chads mom. Kasey cheated and put our outside. They were filled with yummy things and other pretty things like shirts, oven mitt, and a cat toy. We then played some egg Olympics. I was the first loser. But my eyes were doing bad that day.. so you know. : ) And then it was a pretty intense end with kasey and chad but then chad got a big lead and wasted kasey. So.. fun times!

We had big plans for a nice little bbq which turned out awful. The burgers turned into slim. They like melted all over the grill. It was weird and uneatable. 

All or our eggs!!

The first egg to be dyed. Chad made it.

Every ones eggs. 

One of the many courses during the egg Olympics. This one took the life of two eggs.

 We also went outside for a little. Kittys favorite thing.
