Brag Blog


Time to brag out my husband. Zach is so talented at snowboarding. he wins tons of competitions and everyone loves to watch him snowboard. all the kids like to hang out and talk to him and they all wan to be like him! he is a good role model to them. we have this friend who is so good at photography and has taken some really cool shots of zach
This is the Directive rail zach had made to go up at beaver mountain. a few friends pitched in and we got it painted really cool
This is the other side of the directive rail.

on the ski lift with friends!


I love zach and i'm glad he gets to do what he loves everyday!

life in vegas.

We went to vegas in january for a trade show. we were there for i think 5 days and they were 5 EXTRA LONG days. up at 9 for meeting back to back until 6 and partying until around 2 am everynight. it was so fun but i was was exhausted everyday. ask zach i complained a lot.
oh and we got so much free stuff.

Zach in the jungle! we were waiting for the tram. after a super long day.
Playing a GIANT slot machine. i didn't win! but it was cool.

This is one time when i was a twin.

We had a really hard time getting an appointment with nike because they are so hard core. the last day we were there we finally got someone to tell us what was going on. so this "guy" told us to go to the corner of the casino by the shark tank and jump in this black esclade and it would take us to the nike "location" thinking this was a joke we did it anyway. sure enough there was the escalde so we jump in make nice with the driver he kind of told us what was going on...not really. we didn't even know where we were going. we end up at the four seasons. (SO COOL) and find our way to the suite where nike is suppose to be. they never opened the door the bell man seriously said "nike has left the building" so crazy anyway needless to say we didn't ever get a nike appointment and the escalade never came back to get us. which was fine because it turns out the four seasons is connected to the convension center. AHH it was a funny experience. so this is us in the esclade being "secret agents for nike"
i lost 25 dollars playing gold fish (a penny slot) because craig won 50 dollars i didn't!

at M&Mworld. i bought 3 dollars worth of m&m's (they are 11$ a pound) too much for my pocket
in a taxi after the flight.
This was the coolest part of the vegas trip. we got free tickets to a concert at the palms casino it was so nice. we saw supernatural. mix master mike. and snoop dogg! WOW awesome. it's porb 2 or 3 in the morning in this picture.!

Make these!!!

I watched studio 5 yesterday and there was the cutest girl talking about "foodie" blogs. she has here own blog i haven't checked it out yet but its http://www.stephanieskitchen.com/category/breakfast
She did a recipe demo and it looked so good i had to try it! the recipe was for
Baked Apple and Cinnamon French Toast Cups
i made them for a bunch of people and everyone died over them! so so yummy. MAKE THEM!

Ingredients:
* 2 gala apples, diced (pealed)
* 4 Tablespoons butter
* 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
* 2 tablespoons brown sugar
* 1/4 cup granulated sugar
* 8 slices French bread, cubed (day old bread is better to use)(not as soggy)
* 4 eggs
* 1 cup milk
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
* dash of ground nutmeg
* 1 cup confectioners' sugar
* dash of milk

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a muffin tin with nonstick spray.
2. In a medium skillet, saute the apples with the butter, cinnamon, brown sugar and sugar for about 5 minutes, or until soft. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour egg mixture and apples over bread cubes so they are well coated.
4. Scoop the bread pudding evenly between 12 muffin cups and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until set and golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan and transfer to a wire rack. 5. In a small bowl, whisk the confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over warm bread pudding cups. Serve immediately.

got board and made some faces













This is so GROSS



This is the 2nd mouse that was caught, he is stuck in the garbage but he sure did jump alot to get  out and almost made it a few times!
This is after we lured him into a jar with some peanutbutter.

i bought four mouse traps and put them in drawers and under the sink. the next morning i heard a trap go off. i was sad and didn't want to see the dead mouse. so i was just was watching TV. when Jake. my brother in law showed up i told him about the mouse he said he would get rid of it for me. that's when we heard some rustling under the sink. there was a mouse trapped in my garbage! AH!!!!! i didn't know what to do. i didn't want it dead (it was SO cute and tiny) but i didn't want to let it go because i figured it would come back. so we put it in a jar and Jake took it up to bear lake to live in a field! (at least i hope) so then a little later i heard it again.! there was another mouse in my garbage! mouse #3 i thought the 2nd was crazy and now there was a 3rd. Zach let it go out side..... and then about an hour later i heard it again MOUSE #4!!! CRAZY. so we let that one go.  and then Once again there was that all to familiar noise of mouse # 5 but this one was a little smarter and didn't land in the garbage can! i scared it and it got away! how silly huh. 4 almost 5 mice in a few hours! and only one had to die! anyway here is one of them we caught!
