Me, Michelle, Mom, Tiffany & HollyJo.

C.S.I Board Game


Happy Birthday Michelle. My sister turned 30 on the 24th of July. This was a big Birthday for her, she was certain that she should go find her a burial plot so that she was prepared. I think 30 is a hard number for a lot of people. I actully had a harder time with Ben turning 30 then he did. 30 sounds so old but, I am only two short years away from that big number myself.
We love to get together as a family and Birthdays are the best time to celebrate together. We don't need to go anywhere fancy or even leave my mothers house to have a good time.
We got a babysitter for our kids and just had a night with adults. We order pizza and played the board game C.S.I. This game if you haven't played it is very intense. You have to be paying attention at all times and really listen or you will miss an importent clue in the game.
There was so many of us that we had to play in teams. Holly & Rusty, Ben & I and Michelle and Joe. (Tiffany sat out this game and played with baby Easten.) I am not a huge board game fan (unless it is CLUE) so Ben made me leave the table because I was interupting his concentration. This is when I started to snap pictures. This was making everyone a bit angry. Oh well it made for some good picture to Blog!

Board Games


When our family plays a board game it is SERIOUS. I am the CLUE champ. I have yet to be beaten at Clue. This defintly rubs Rusty the wrong way. He is very competitive as well and I think he hates to lose to a girl. If anyone wants the challenge of a clue game, you just let me know.
It is really fun when we can get our entire family together, we always have a great time no matter what we end up doing. We are always laughing. I have a great family.

The BEST cake EVER!!


Okay everyone I have found the perfect cake. I must tell you that I am not a huge cake fan. I was in charge of a Birthday at my work and at the last minute forgot I needed a cake. I ran to LEE'S in LOGAN and grabbed the first cake that looked good. This was a huge mistake on my part because now all I do is crave this cake. First off you can only get this cake at the Logan Lees. I tried to get the cake at the Lees in Smithfield and the frosting is somewhat diffrent. The cake is an oreo cake and the selling point of this cake is the Frosting. It is a whipped frosting. I still haven't been able to pin point excatly what the frosting is made of.
So for MIchelle's Birthday I told my mother about this cake and she went and bought it for her and now all my sister crave the cake. We bought two of these cakes on Michelle's Birthday.
Go and purchase this cake and let me know if your taste buds feel the same as ours do.
