Disneyland!!

So I just recently went on a vacation to the happiest place on earth. I love Disneyland! I went with my family a week after my birthday so I counted it as my birthday party. We went down on memorial day and just hung out at Downtown Disney. Then tuesday the real fun started. I was at Disneyland for 12 hours on tuesday. I had a blast and was quite tired when I had to walk the 20 minute walk back to the hotel. I didn't think that I was going to be able to make it. But its a good thing that I did. Because on Wednesday I was at Disneyland for 13 hours I was going to try to stay for the fireworks but I was unable to stand much longer and I had to still walk back to the hotel so my brother and sister walked back with me. We were always the last ones to leave, usually everyone left about an hour before we did. The last day that we went was on thursday. We were only able to do a half day there because I had to get back home so that I could do my clinical hours on Friday. I was only able to miss 8 hours of clinic this semester and I took that time off in the second week. But it was worth it and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Like I said I LOVE DISNEYLAND. 

Baby Shower Bliss

This past week end I attended a Baby Shower for my sister-in-law, Johanna. She is expecting to have her first child, Clark Cruickshank Bringhurst, in July. At the shower we played three games and I won two of them. HECK YES! I'm amazing when it comes to games like guess the candy bar melted in the diaper. My sister, Carly, decorated a "cake" it was made of rice krispies, and I made and decorated cupcakes. They were a chocolate peanut butter cream cheese and a key lime cheesecake cupcake. They were quite tasty.

Friendship Pictures!

Before my friend Camilynne moved up to Orem to go to school Lauren, her, I got together to take some friendship pictures. They were taken by someone while we just played around and acted like the dorks we are. It was way fun. So here are a few of our pictures...

Lauren, Me, Cami

I don't know what exactly I'm doing but everyone looks very concerned.

This was the coolest car ever, it was hard to drive because Lauren was sitting on the steering wheel.

Erica's Wedding

This past weekend my cousin Erica got married. It was quite the week. My family and I did all the food for the reception and my sister, Carly, and I did her wedding cake. It was a lot of work but everything turned out beautifully. For the food we did stuff that Erica asked for but we tried to vamp it up a bit. So we did popcorn chicken, pigs in a blanket, and our version of peanut butter and jam sandwiches. What we did was take sliced baguette's with almond butter and fresh strawberry slices. They were quite tasty. We also did a chicken salad roll up. As for the desserts we did lemon tarts, peanut butter brownie cheesecake bites, and rice crispies. It was a fun reception to cater. As for the cake I made a french vanilla cake, with actual vanilla beans in it, with a cream cheese berry center.  We printed off their bridal pictures on rice paper and attached them to cake with a bead frame around it. The cake was not originally going to look like this it took us a few different cake designs before we ended up with this one. We haven't really done one where there is a tier in the center of the cake but it worked with this cake I think. It was tasty and it looked really good when they cut into it. My sister says that its hard to watch people cut into a cake that you took so long to make and decorate. As for me I am just happy to be done with the cake so I don't really care what happens to it. Plus I work really hard to make sure that the cake tastes good so I like people to be able to enjoy that part. This wedding was a lot of work, but very worth it. I hope that Erica enjoyed everything. 

Ouch!

So a little background I play soccer once a week usually its pretty fun and I can walk away with everything working.  One thursday about 2 weeks ago I got kicked pretty good. I thought it was no big deal i've been kicked before. Turns out it didn't heal as fast as I would have hoped. 

This is the what it looked like a few days after the accident. 

When it first happened it turned white. This was as big as it got.

I'd say its pretty large. I had to wrap my leg because it would hurt when

I would walk on it. I limped for a bit. It was really fun.

This is what it looked like close up. You can kind of see

the bruising on the upper right side. As you can see it wants 

to heal. Hopefully it will go away. I'm tired of the pain.

This was today. It looks better and hurts worse but it's still

not looking great. I only have to wear a band-aide and I don't

have to wrap my leg anymore so thats always a good sign.

Needless to say it may be a while till I return to soccer. My Grandma Cruickshank told me I couldn't play anymore. I don't have very good luck when it comes to injuries. 

Angels Landing

Yay I finally made it up to the top. The last time that I tried I was unable to traverse the chains because there was so much ice under the snow that you slipped a lot. Well this weekend I decided to give one more try and I finally reached the top. It was my first time getting all the way up which is weird because I live right by it and I'm almost 21. I guess I was just a bum before. This time that I climbed I was a bit injured my right leg was hurt pretty bad on thursday so I had to hike with a good injury. It didn't hurt when I was doing it but I think that I angered it because the next day I had to wrap my leg up in order to walk properly. I finally am starting to heal but still the leg remains wrapped. The best part was that I was never sore from my hike the only problem I had was my wound. I am so happy. 

Lauren and I decided to hide in this rock cave.

Lauren, Dustin, Anna, and I sitting up at the top.

Smiling before we head back down. Which was an adventure in and of itself.
