Germ Face Johnson

I have been pretty sick for the last week or so, which means that we haven't been doing to terribly much. Luckily I have a very sweet man to take care of me.




Yesterday our new bed was finally delivered! We went and bought new ivory sheets to celebrate!500 thread count, yum.



Last night I made funnel cakes for Hy to enjoy, and they ended up being pretty tasty!The recipe was almost too easy!



Not too much going on this week...except for my BIRTHDAY! I am turning 23, go me!


I have always been in love with cows, but after finding this photo it just made me love them even more!




Who knows, maybe one day Hy and I will have our own heard!

Busy Lives!

Hy and I have been having lots of fun lately, but who really wants to sits down and blog! But on a day like today (where it is cold in the house, and I don't want to do anything but sit on the couch) it seems fitting.

So what has been going on lately?

We went and did a little shopping the other day and I found some great copper Brioche molds.



I like the shape of them so much that I used one to make a tiny lemon cake with a light lemon glaze.



What else??

Work has been great. Fun as always. I did this cake last weekend. It is a 4' and 6' stacked cake. I think it came out pretty cute.



We did a few little decorative touches in the guest room, because my cousin and his wife are coming to stay for a night or so.

Last night a few of us from the Dessert Tray (Robin and Angel, the owners; and Baker Beth) all got to go to OMSI-after dark. Which stands for the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry and the after dark is for 21 years and up. It was SO much fun. Get ready for a total picture overload!

Hy and I spent the 4th together and it was lots of fun! I slept in and Hyrum (my handsome farm boy) got up early, like he always does. It was nice spending two whole days together, which was a great change! We usually only get one!






He made us some fantastic nachos for lunch...




We spent the afternoon at the movie theater, where we saw Grown Ups and it was pretty hilarious. We probably spent the entire time laughing.



After the movie, we went and spent too much money on fireworks! When we got home, we spent some time grilling and getting ready to start lighting them off . Lily was peachy for most of the time, but the BIG fireworks scared her!



Everyone in our neighborhood pretty much knows each other and every year we light off fireworks together in the culdesac.




Lily spent today needing some extra attention... and naps.



Work starts back up tomorrow morning and it looks like it is going to be a great week.
