Mare's New Shoes!

I don't know how many of you know this but...it is very hard for me to part from a good pair of shoes. Hence my last ones I had that were white and green slip ons that lasted me about three years and are now black instead of white and have holes all over the place and just have fallen apart! So, the other day I threw them away and headed down to famous footwear and what did i find? A new awesome great pair of shoe that is shown above! As kristen said, they are totally mare! And, I actually wear them! I tend to buy new shoes but then just stick with my old ones. Lol. So, I just thought I would share that new bit of news as these are my new shoes that have replaced my dear old ones! Hooray!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME

Last friday was my 19th birthday. Sunday was my family party and then friday I had 9 people over for dinner then we went swimming and then leatherby's. At leatherby's Mare told our waiter it was my birthday so they brought me a small scoop of vanilla ice cream with a white candle. They lit the candle and sang to me and the WHOLE restaurant was looking at me, the table next to us joined in too. It turned out they had 2 birthdays at that table and so we joined in with their song.

I went to Rascall Flatts on Feb 26th. I won the tickets from KBULL 93. I went with Rosanne, Danny's mom. The tickets were great they were in the lower bowl and Rascall Flatts often came right in front of us. Jessica Simpson was their opening act, I only have like 3 pictures of her. She didn't perform very well, in one of the songs she wrote she forgot the words, but her back up singer kept singing. I also didn't like that when she was talking about her next song to introduce it and tell us why she was going to sing it or why she had written it, the band would be playing the introduction but not at a quiet volume so she had to yell over the music. I just thought that they should have played it at a lower volume and then gotten louder instead of the same volume the entire time.
Rascall Flatts was amazing. They sounded exactly like they do on the radio, but they would personalize the songs or cut them so you felt like you got to hear them play the song, but you didn't have to sit through the enitre slow song. It was so amazing and I am glad that I had the opportunity to go and hope it won't be the last time I can experience it.
I think my pictures are very good and clear, that just shows how close I was!

Nicklecade

Danny and I went to the Nicklecade for a date back in february. Every game is a nickle so we got a bang for our buck. The nicklecade is located in Taylorsville and it seemed a bit run down and in the sketchy part of town. As you can see, Danny is a little kid inside and at times got a little too intense for an arcade, but as long as I get my pictures what do I care;) The little bowling pins in the top right was the one machine I made any tickets on. You roll a nickle down the lane and try to hit a pin, I was skilled enough to get the far left pin and earn 15 tickets! With our tickets we got some fun size candy, it was fun, a little run-down but enjoyable.

MOM'S B-DAY

I had the privilege to make mom's birthday cake this year. They are the same cake.... the one on the left is what the cake should really look like lol, the cake on the right had some small space issues there was too much cream and not enough cake, but I think it made the presentation a little more fun. The cake was delicious:) And over all I think she had a good time!
