And anytime I'm in the hometown of Sheridan Wyoming I have to eat here...
And I everytime we go to Draper I want to eat here....
Okay I usually don't like little dogs but these puppies are the cutest things ever. They are called Teddy Bear puppies. It is a hybrid dog of Shih Tzu Bichon-poo mix. I don't even know what that means but I want one so bad! Mostly I just really want a puppy. I don't think Matt would ever go for one of these or allow me to have one but I'm going to work on him. I would take any puppy though!
Yeah that is me 2 years ago with my nephew Alex. It was the first time I had ever had my hair dark like that. I've been blond my whole life and now I am back to the good old blond but I am looking for something new, either length or color, just something. I think it's so fun to have a new hair do so if any of you have any ideas please do tell!!! Thanks
Well I can't really narrow down a single best friend because I have so many wonderful friends. First of all of course my Mom. The one I always turn to and the one that always has the right things to say no matter what, even if I don't want to hear it! Always there for me!!!
My beautiful sisters who can always cheer me up. Even though I don't see them that much they mean the world to me and I am so grateful to be so close to them although we live hours apart!
My awesome niece Kailey Bean! She was born when I was 12. I grew up always being around her. We were always together and she was my mini me. I don't get to see her as much as I would like because we are too far apart but I love her so much!! It's crazy seeing her getting older!
Lannold, Foxy, Lannolin, Lanilia or just Lanni. We were best friends through high school and I only see her like once a year these days which sucks and we end up talking for hours and hours which I love! She is an amazing lady and I am so proud of her and all the work she is putting into school!!
Kelsey and Alex. So much to say!!! Kelsey and me met my first year up at Utah State and we were instant friends! We didn't spend many hours apart and had the best freshman experience ever. I was with these two through their whole relationship and now Alex is also one of my best friends. I don't know how many times it was just Kelsey, Alex and me hanging out!!
Chelsea!!! The soon to be new mom! I am so excited for her and I can't wait to meet my little nephew. We met at some random cabin trip but we were friends from then on out! We always have so much fun and I am sure we are so annoying to everyone else when we are together but we don't care!
These lovely ladies have been such a big part in my life throughout college. They will always be great friend! I love them all so much!!
Sami!! She is one of the most beautiful girls I have ever met. Not only outside but inside. She is so loving and kind. She always has a smile on her face no matter whats going on. She is such a sweetheart and I am so lucky that I have her as a close friend!!
Next thing I could eat everyday....Edemame! Oh I love these little beans in their salty shell!! You just can't go wrong with this at all. I wouldn't mind having a constant supply of these things. The are like popcorn or chips. I could just sit on the couch and eat these all day!!
Oh my day....well to tell the truth not the greatest. Really long I guess you could say. It just involved a lot of school. Feeling a little stressed because I am suppose to be good at math and calculus is killing me. I got home from school and did a take home exam in my other math class that took a couple hours. Then Matt got home so things got better! He made us some dinner. He had an intermural game so I went with him to watch. They played awesome and won. Oh then Matt took me to get ice cream! He knows what I like and what makes me happier! ha! Now I'm just sitting here but we are about to dance on our xbox kinect so things are looking up!!
I was looking through Matt's pictures and I found this lovely picture that someone had taken of him. It was when he was in Nauvoo going to BYU Nauvoo. They were headed up to New York and I guess he was a bit tired. I died laughing cause I have a very similar picture.
Here's my lovely picture that someone decided to snap. This was the summer before my senior year in high school. I had the opportunity to go to Greece and Italy for 3 weeks. We spent a lot of time on a bus and it was such a go go go trip that I seemed to be tired a lot!
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and saute 2 minutes. Add chicken and saute 5 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove half of the chicken and reserve for another use.
Stir in black beans, green chiles, and salsa and simmer 5 minutes, until sauce thickens and reduces. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro.
Arrange 4 tortillas on a flat surface. Top each tortilla with an equal amount of chicken mixture. Roll up tortillas and place side by side in a shallow baking dish. Top tortillas with shredded cheese (1/3 cup per tortilla).
Bake enchiladas 15 minutes, until cheese is golden and gooey
One of Matts favorite foods is Mexican so I decided to make him these enchiladas and some chips and guacamole. This was a really tasty and easy. I made a few changes though. I put some cream cheese in the chicken mixture a little bit after I put the chicken in. Then I made about a cup of rice and mixed that in with the mixture after it is taken off the heat. I put a little layer of sour cream on the tortilla and put some cheese there too. I put enchilada sauce on the bottem of the pan and on the top and of course a lot of cheese on top!!! Try it! You won't regret it!!!
So...It's around Valentine's day meaning I can be cheesy...well more cheesy then usual! I thought I'd share something that Matt and I have done since we got married. I had heard of an idea that I thought was the cutest thing ever...Every night before you went to be you would have a little notebook by your bed. Right before you went to sleep you write something you love about your significant other. It could be something the did that was special that day or something in general that you love! Then a year later you exchange then and get to read what your spouse loves about you. Well I told Matt this idea cause like I said I'm usually pretty cheesy. Well we never ended up doing it. BUT we do the lazy approach to this idea. Each night before we go to bed we say something that we love about each other. Sometimes it can just be something silly or little that they did that day. Like the other day Matt loved me because I played halo with him and the guys. That same day I think I loved him cause he was hot and very easy to look at. So it doesn't have to be this huge thought out romantic thing, although of course that is always night to, but something simple that you love about your best friend! It makes you realize that you are loved no matter what! That love will never die!!
My hott husband!
Our amazing ship!!! It was huge! With an ice cream and pizza bar!! Delicious!
