Silly Kitty

We noticed a while ago that when Ollie is held that he stretches out... all the way.

Apparently it's comfortable...
He's so crazy!!

It's cold outside!!!

We just went out to get groceries and it's so cold!
I remember nice warm summer days like these...



And I want them back!
It's been fun, winter, but.... sunshine, please!

And it Wasn't Even Late O'clock yet...

Last night before bed, I was a little... hyper. :) I got a fabulous princess hat in a package from my dear friend, Julianne. There's a story behind it but it's kind of long, so anyway, I got this princess hat and I was trying to find a good place to keep it, so I put it on my giant stuffed dog, Kirby's head. Then I got the brilliant idea to dress it up completely, so here's Kirby, all dressed up. Hahaha.

Then I got a picture of me in the hat and really cool swirly scarf also sent to me by Julianne.

and then I put on a strange outfit and took a picture just for fun! Oh, the funny, funny things I do. :)


Have a great day!

A different view of the Christmas Tree

I was told to water the Christmas tree, and so I did. After about 15 minutes I found a spot where I could dump the water into the tree thing. But then I felt kind of stuck, being really far under the tree and all. So I asked my mom to hand me the camera. This is what it looked like.
Well, okay. This first isn't from under the tree, I just like the picture.



Soo, it looks basically the same only it's EVERYWHERE!It's really cool when you're under there!

Cookie Madness!

Today I made cookies... lots of cookies!
Some no bake cookies, I love these. My mom used to make these a lot and so they bring back memories.

Also some peanut butter between two Ritz crackers covered in chocolate... cookies.

And M&M cookies, Yummy! They are so fun! Except that the cookie dough didn't have enough moisture so they are a bit crumbley, still good, though.

Been Busy!

Haha, I was looking for a random picture to put here. I found one! I love this lil' guy!
Anyway... :)
I've been pretty busy going places and doing different stuff.
I've also been baking a lot. Cookies, mini pumpkin cheesecakes, all sorts of stuff! I love it!
We got some snow last week and Mikey and I went out in it for a while, unfortunately it didn't stick around for long. Oh well, I'm sure more will come.
I've also been preparing for Christmas a tiny bit, but we still don't have a tree! Yikes! Maybe tomorrow. I hope so!!!

So yeah, that's what's happening with me... I thought I'd do a quick post to keep you updated. So here it is, Ta-da!

Photography

Here are some pictures that I've taken... you may notice that I favor the Black and White setting :)

This is Tinkerbell, she was the smallest so that's what I named her.



I love this one!

An artistic picture of my hand, haha. :)

That's all for now.

More Treats!

In case you haven't caught on yet, I like making candies. Today I made some rice krispie treat balls coated in chocolate.

Before being dipped in yummy milk chocolate...

With chocolate and sprinkles.
But I had extra ingredients! Soooo...

I put the remainder of rice krispie treat stuff into a round baking pan and let it sit for a while then later I turned it upside down and it out, now circular, then put the rest of the chocolate on top with more sprinkles and some chocolate chips.

Raspberry Chocolates

My mom and I went to the grocery store, where we purchased some chocolate wafers. These are what I use to make chocolates with. I melted them down and added some raspberry extract for some extra flavor, then put the melted chocolate into a mold. They came out like this!


So fun!

Hats!!!

First of all... I'm so sorry for not writing in forever! I've been kind of busy.
Anyway, now I want to show you my 2 hats, one of which I just got today.

This is my first hat, kindly given to me by someone from our church, I like it a lot!

This is my new hat. I got it for just over $3. Yaaaayyy!

A New Kind of Drawing

When drawing, never before had I known that I could be creative like this. Well, apparently I can. We were at the bowling alley on Tuesday for our regular Tuesday bowling and Jonathan was drawing a cool picture with twists and other interesting designs, so when we got home, I decided to try it and this is what I came up with.


Not too bad, right?
I thought "this is fun!" so I did another...


These pictures do take a lot of time because of the detail in them, which is great because it keeps me busy!
I've actually done two versions of this one...


Friday when we went shopping I got a sketchbook and some more Sharpie pens.
I've done some more in there.
I actually just did this one about a half hour ago.


This one is more simple...



I have done more but it would take awhile to post them all.

Apple Pie

I rarely make pies, but it was chilly today and it made me think of autumn, which makes me think of apple pie :)
Leave it to me to see seasons as different baked items, fortunately, that is not the only thing I see them as.
If I did it would be like this.
Spring- Cupcakes
Summer- Strawberry Shortcake
Autumn- Apple Pie
Winter- Sugar Cookies
Anyway...
We're going to skip ahead to the fun part, assembling the pie(s) I only took pictures of one before it was baked.

Do you see this? YUM!
We did one with a flakey crust and one with a crumble topping, the one with crumble topping was bubbling over in the oven (which made my funny mind think "My pie bubbleth over" lol) but when I tried to put a cookie sheet under it and settle the other one in such a way, I burnt my hand! OUCH!

Eventually the pies came out of the oven, and they were looking good!
Look for yourself:

You may have noticed a blob of crust on the front, before the pie went into the oven that was a pretty heart, unfortunately it didn't turn out. My mom said that it is a broken heart :)
This is the one with the crumble topping. Mmmm...


So, that is what I did today!

Fun, fun, fun!

This is me. This is me on a dirtbike!!! While in the mountains this past week, I was told that I really should learn to ride it, so... why not? It was fun!
Mikey is behind me, probably because I was going really slowly to start out. He didn't say anything about having to go slow while I learned, so I didn't say anything either.
I enjoyed it.

Cupcakes!!!

Yesterday I had nothing to do, as usual. So I decided to make some cupcakes and decorate them, this would be fun! I love decorating things, but it's kind of complicated so I don't usually do it.

I have to tell you about this, though. I was looking in the cupboard for the paper cups that you put the batter into, but I could not find them anywhere! It took me about 20 minutes to realize that they were in FRONT. They were right in front of my face! Oh my goodness!

Anyway, this is what the cupcakes looked like once they were done. All I needed to do was decorate them.


There are five special ones.
They each have a first letter of someone in our family's name.
This one has a "B" for Becky, my mom.


"W" for Warren, my Dad. I really like this one, the flowers were put in just the right places.


"M" for Mikey, His cupcake is also one of my favorites.


"J" for Jonathan.


"C" for Chelsea, it's mine! I want to eat it... but it took so much time!


Here they are all together, the special ones and the regular ones.

Cute New Shoes

The other day my parents, Jonathan, and I went out for breakfast and then "shopping". We went to a shoe store where we all got new shoes, I want to show you mine.

Here they are!


I love them!

I hope you have a great day!
Chelsea

I love this picture!

I was going to load some pictures on to the computer but something was not working, so I decided to show you one of my favorite pictures. Here it is!
This picture was taken at Daytona Beach, FL. While we were on vacation, so every time I see this picture it reminds me of that. It was a great vacation.

Thanks for reading!

A Garden Fresh Salad

Last night I saw that I had a pepper ready to be picked and we also had a cucumber that I'd picked the other day that we needed to use, AND some tomato's that my Grandma gave us from her garden. We had BLT's for dinner, and I thought a salad would go along well with that "summer" theme.
So I...
Cut up my very best pepper. :(

I then cut up my cucumber.

These tomato's were next in line.

The lettuce was not fresh from the garden, but it was good anyway.
After adding cheese, it was ready!

It was yummy, especially with the BLT's, which I forgot to take a picture of. oops!
