Cookbooks, anyone?

And the back of the 2nd cookbook above!

This is the front of the 1st cookbook

I've got a week to sell 25 cookbooks! I was just wondering if anyone wants to buy any?! They are $10.00 each, and it's going towards a very good cause! I'm in FCCLA (Family, community, career leaders of America) at school, and we are holding a fundraiser. I took a picture of the cover of the books, and in my opinion, the food looks VERY good! If you are interested in buying one, please tell me as soon as possible because I only have got a week! AND..i'm going out of town..so call soon :] thank you!

And this is the 2nd cookbook

An extremely embarrassing moment..

So, I went on a date with this amazingly hot guy last night! I was so excited for him to pick me up and when he was driving up here Krista was giving me the talk how I would always embarrass her when she dated guys..I don't even remember being that evil. Then, she's like, you better watch out i'm going to be in the trees with a video camera and taping you guys kissing! I was like, "yeah yeah..whatever." So we went on our date. Then I came back at midnight. . . and he didn't walk me to the door [LUCKILY!] All the sudden..i hear, "MANDI! OH MY GOSH! MANDI! MANDI!" i look over, and there's krista..in a TODDLER HALLOWEEN BUNNY OUTFIT skipping towards me with glee! I put my hood up and was super embarrassed and she ran up to me hugged me and wrapped her leg around me. I was SO freaking embarrassed. For the record, I didn't ever embarrass her that much. And she said, "That's just the beginning..you wait." We'll just say, let's hope there's a 3rd date!

And Krista..

I talked to him today. He laughed so hard he almost peed his pants.

My 5K Race!

Me and my dad went to a 5k Race to prevent domestic violence since it's domestic violence month! First of all..Let me tell you THANK YOU DAD for coming with me to do this! I had so much fun spending time with you and seeing how good you could do! haha. You did amazing and 12 times better than I thought you would. I'm so proud of you. So a 5k is...3.1 miles! My dad got done at about 22 minutes!! I got done at 20 minutes, and was the second girl to finish! I didn't think i did that good until my dad had to tell me how good i did. It was very tiring since I didn't really prepare myself and i'm way sore but I'm so proud of myself and think it's perty exciting! Guess what else? So after the race, there was a drawing for 4 gift cards to Gateway, a facial, and an ipod video. My dad WON THE IPOD VIDEO!! If he wouldn't of went with me, he never would have won that. Thank you dad for going with me, I had a blast!

Something to blog about

Krista told me this was so cool it was something to blog about! haha. so I thought i'd tell you all guys how cool this is! I was working in my dad's office the other day and my mom was like, "Did you see this?" I looked at the invoice and saw Kyle Korver "Utah Jazz" written on it! I was like, "Shut up! are you serious?" I didn't believe it. But i guess Kyle Korver is buying carpet from my papa! I almost peed. nearly. Because he's ashton kutcher. and he's a freaking JAZZ player. If it was Deron Williams I would have peed. But it was very cool and definitely something to blog about! :] hehe.

Camping!

You'll have to look at my mom's blog in a few weeks for the pictures because i am JUST TOO LAZY to put them on. We went camping and fourwheeling at the pink coral sand dunes with grandma, grandpa, and the hansons. all i can say is that it was A BLAST! the weather was perfect, and nobody got hurt! hah. Josh and Dalton both learned how to ride a clutch fourwheeler and were really good at it. Me, mom, and emily wrote a song around the campfire i just had to post.. [sing at the tune to "Grandma got ran over by a reindeer.]


Grandma almost got caught on fire.
Camping at the Coral Pink Sand Dunes.
It was an inch away from her pant leg.
The look on Lexi's face was priceless.

That night kohnie was crying.
from laughing so hard at lexi.
we're so glad that grandma was oblivious
to everything that happened that night.

You have to hear it being sung because otherwise, it's not that funny!!

Homecoming!

I look like i'm standing weird but it's the dress. :]

This is my B E Autiful corsauge (mom..i don't think that's how you spell it.) HAHA. o well

Homecoming couldn't have been better! I went with this kid named Keaton and he's the nicest kid i've ever met! he's tiny and extremely innocent. :] for our day activity, we rented out "Bouncing off the walls" for 2 hours. It's just a jumpy place with trampolines similar to some dudes playground. Then, we went to dinner and then to the dance, and then to this kid's house to watch a movie. I was home at 1:15!! That's pretty good, right? I had way fun! When I get our pictures back from school, i will definitely post them on here since i don't have any pics of him. Here's the day of homecoming when we left for dinner.

Wish me luck!

This last Tuesday I had my first "Sandy City Youth Court!" Most of you know what I do, but if you want more information about what it is click here.. I'll write a little description if you don't want to read all that.. :]

Sandy City Youth Court is an opportunity for minors who have broken a simple crime [such as theft] for the first time, and get a chance for restorative justice. If they do all of their disposition requirements (maybe..community service, theft class, etc.) the crime will come off their record.

It is a great experience and way rewarding. Our first court case was soo sad! Because the people who came in didn't have much in their family and they were struggling. But wish me luck for this coming year of Youth Court and also Sandy Youth City Council! I'm looking forward to it, but am also way nervous because it's so easy to mess up!! ahh..

FOOTBALL SEASON!

I've got to admit that i'm soo excited for football season to start. The U game was AMAZING, and tonight I went to a high school football game. Let me just say we're the best. :] undefeated 07 season and so far we're undefeated this season! I didn't get any pictures of me and friends but a couple of cool pictures on cell phones!!

IT'S GONNA BE A GREAT YEAR!
