So I'm on my way out! I'm so old! Turning 30 doesn't feel quite as bad as I once thought it would! I had a big party to celebrate my 3 decades and it was tons of fun! We had lots of food my best friends and even my sister was there! I couldn't have asked for anything more! I just want to thank everyone for helping and coming and planning and for all the great gifts! (This is not your thank you note by the way. They are coming soon) I got a ton of
scrapbooking stuff which I loved! Kristin thinks I am a little excessive and Mel wants to come shop at my scrapbook "store" but I say you can NEVER have too much!! I will also be getting a cut and color this week thanks to my
bestest buds! I will post
pictures for sure!! So I love you all and look forward to the next chapter in the book of
Shandis
This is the before shot! I wear my hair up so much that I didn't even realize how long it was! It quite literally was touching my butt!
........Now it barely touches my shoulders!
From drab to fab! I really did love my long hair but I also hated it so I was really ready for the dramatic change! You can't really see all the fun new highlights but I really love my new look!! So what do you think???
We had a green breakfast! Green pancakes and green milk. The kids loved it!! Xavier kept asking for green milk all day, white milk just wouldn't do! Then we had these rainbow snacks for FHE. The kids liked making them more than they liked eating them but it was still really cute and we even delivered some to our friends! It was a super fun, green day!
So Friday Xavier brought home a baby food jar with cream in it from school. They were trying to make butter. Well, I decided that I needed to shake it a little bit and sure enough we got butter! I think I was a little more into then Xavier but I really did think it was so cool! The best part is that the butter is really sweet and good! I think you should all give it a try!! Yum-O
So I made this cake with my new mixer. It is really one of the first things I've done! My friend Gemma did the decorating I just came up with the idea! I am so not that talented! Super cute cake though!! I thought I would show you the real Elder Blodgett that Xavier was pretending to be in the earlier post! This was his birthday celebration. He's left our area and we miss him already! So it goes with Missionaries!
