Temple fun with the Blay's

We have this couple in our ward who are practically our twins.

Meet the Blay's.

Everyone gets us confused because...basically:

We're all from the West Coast... our husbands are in law school.. we're both going in the same nursing program.. we all have the same life plan.. and we're blonde, young, married, etc

So, needless to say, we became temple travelling buddies.
Here is our latest temple pic. Because we had travel buddies we didn't need to take a picture of ourselves, by ourselves. ha. What a relief!
 

We love the Blay's.

FRANKENOVEN

so i have this FUNFETTI -obsession. really. it's true. and this die-hard dream to be a CUPCAKE decorator.
Anyhoo, as of late our oven has been on the fritz. now known as "frankenoven"-rightfully so.

It's cooking time/temp/anything and everything are completely wrong and off and you have no idea what the darn thing is doing until it's too late and all of your fabulously piped cupcakes are incinerated to a blackened crisp.

Look at my precision!

take.note. ha

AND, gasp! horror.

thank you frankenoven for completely demolishing a batch of perfectly piped FUNFETTI cupcakes.
i currently loathe you.

-----------------------------------------------------

But, on an up note! I did pipe some super cute cupcakes ...later on..for a friend, Meghan's bday bash, that looked fabulous (and i didn't take a pic! curses!) just imagine they were the best darn pink funfetti cupcakes you'd ever seen!

happy 22 to me!

Here's to posting a month late:


i am a lover of all holidays--especially merryhappyjulianuarymonthiversarybirthday's.
go big, or go home around here!

i feel like i didn't get to use "21" very much, so i hope i get to use "22" MORE. come on ppl!

Anyway,

I had a super-uber fabulous birthday with my hubs. I had a wonderful Thursday off (thank you supervisor Jess. you're an angel)...I relaxed, got all dressed up and ate a classy dinner with my boo at the FAT TUSCAN.

Shout out to FAT TUSCAN, ohmygoodness. you stole my heart. cute lil' backyard, hold-in-the-wall authentic italian eatery.. with tiki lights, a fountain, and an elegant ambiance. thank heavens for living in florida where eating outside in january is possible!

Following dinner, we came home, ate a wonderful publix cake and opened presents. which i do so very much love = )

tops.hair straightners (thankyou georgia).gift cards (thank you momma) and everything else fabulous!

Enjoy my picture mania:

 

 **Look georgia! proof i opened it myself!

Ohmygoodness. i totally forgot i ALSO went to the zoo.

Anyway, gal pal Cal and I went for free with our student id's
We had fun! oodling all the crazy animals...

..except for the part where the turtles were getting frisky. awkward.

and then that weekend, we had a game night bash with all the besties! ohhwhat a lovely
merryhappyjulianuarymonthiversarybirthday.

And I knew there was a reason...

that I didn't drink soda. (yano, the occasional.) but imma put a stop to it.
