Temple #1: Logan

Wednesday, February 24, 2010

On Saturday, Thomas and I went with Tom's parents to Logan, UT for a wedding (Tom's mom's cousin's son's wedding...!) Thomas and I just were proxies for sealings while Tom's parents attended the live sealing. We want to go to every temple in Utah and do some sort of work there before we move away. SO this is going to officially count as #1!...even though we've been to both Draper and Provo. But we weren't starting yet. So...here goes nothing! Two years. One down. 14 to go. That really is us in front of the temple even though you can't see...we didn't just steal a random picture from the internet!

Jamie!

Sunday, February 21, 2010


This week my little sister, Jamie, came to visit us in Utah for her birthday! She turned fifteen on February 16th and celebrated with us all week! We had so much fun!

Jamie flew in on Saturday and Kelli and I picked her up from the airport. It was quite an experience...we parked the car then went into the airport and waited at the bottom of the escalator. At one point, I was looking around the baggage claim area and said to Kelli "Why are all of these for Delta? There's no Southwest at all." I don't know if she heard me or not but we continued to wait for what seemed like FOREVER. Then Jai calls us and asks where we are. So we said "at the bottom, waiting for you..." And she said "Well i'm at the baggage claim." So Kelli and I are so confused at how we missed her and we're looking around for her then we realize DUH we're in the wrong part of the airport!! So we ran (myself in heels!) to the opposite end of the airport where Jamie was waiting at the SOUTHWEST baggage claim. Oops :]


Saturday night, Laurin and Mark went out for their Valentine's dinner so Kelli, Jai, and I watched Emma...mostly we watched her stand by the front door waiting for "mama" to come home.


On Sunday, we all had dinner together at the Woodland's and watched the season premiere of the AMAZING RACE!!! :] Love it!!


On Monday, we did the official birthday celebration (even though her birthday was on Tuesday). We all had work off on Monday due to President's Day so Mark, Laurin, Emma, and Kelli came to our apartment and we played games and had cake and ice cream.


On Tuesday (Jai's and Mom's birthday!) we went to Macaroni Grill for dinner :] mmmm. But PS don't ever get the quattro formaggio pizza...yuck. Jamie got a free birthday cake and of course they sang to her in Italian :] Then Jai and Kelli saw Dear John (no, thank you...the book was bad enough!)
Here's Jamie and Mackenzie at Macaroni Grill:
 
On Wednesday night, Kelli, Jai and I watched Pearl Harbor. Jamie had a rough time after the movie:

 
On Thursday, we went to In N Out for dinner and Tom's parents came to town! :]
On Friday, we went to a jewelry party hosted by Katie Weston who runs yellowbucket.etsy.com. Such cute stuff! I left with three pairs of earrings and the cutest necklace ever! I've had it for three days and have worn it three times :] After the jewelry party, Laurin, Kelli, Jai, and I went to Chilis for dinner. Too bad they took 40 minutes to bring us our appetizer. It came out AFTER our meal. At least it was free :]

On Saturday, Jai went home :[ Hopefully she can convince our parents to bring her back in April when they come for EFY session director training! We miss her already!

Macaroni Grill Bread

Tuesday, January 19, 2010

Tonight I made Macaroni Grill Bread! It was so easy and so delish! It tastes exactly the same as the real kind!

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients
-1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
-1 cup warm water
-3 tbs olive oil
-1/4 tsp sugar
-2 1/2 cups flour
-1 1/2 tsp salt
-1/4 tsp Italian seasoning
-1/4 tsp black pepper
-1 tbs rosemary

Instructions

1. In a medium/large bowl, mix yeast with warm water. Wait five minutes.
2. Add the sugar, flour, salt and oil. Knead, knead, knead!
3. Add the herbs and pepper. Knead into dough until blended.
4. Place dough in an oiled bowl to rise for about an hour. After one hour, punch dough down and let rise for another 30 minutes or so.
5. Bake at 370 for about 25-35 minutes or until top is golden.

Ta-da! My lovely and very yummy macaroni grill bread!



Don't forget the olive oil and balsamic vinegar to dip it in!
