So obviously you know what I was up to last week.Madeline, I hope you had a grand birthday, sorry I couldn't stay for the rest of it that night. Did you enjoy your cake? & what else did you get (Besides the Beatles picture you freaked about hahaha)?
You were pretty funny when I was talking to you while you were asleep though haha. anyways.
When I get back for goo
d (and after my trip to Dallas!) I should have a little more time to spend with you guys though, aside from time spent at work. I think that week was just very rushed haha. & Kyle, we will do putt putt. Don't worry.
Okay so then I flew back to Utah - no problems on the plane this time. The first half, to Albuquerque, I sat next to an old dude and his wife who read the entire time and the second half, I had the window seat and the flight was pretty empty so no one was in the middle seat, and there was some college chick on her ipod in the aisle row. I got some good sleep the entire time.

The weekend was pretty chill. I got some good Tiger time - he's a terror on legs now.. and then we saw Horton Hears a Who - which I loved, and went to the Mayan! I love that place. I also did my dances for the Gparents, and then we played Scattegories, which they've never played before and it was way fun.




Okay so then I got a cheesecake for my birthday, with those little sugar things on it. Mmm so good, probably some of the best cheesecake I've ever had.
And so now I'm on my last year of teenage-dom. yuck.




And so we got back to Idaho eventually, one of these days we're planning on celebrating my bday. I started classes, one of which is Food Prep, and we did confectionery this week on Tues, making lollipops. Me & my partner made Kiwi flavored. It came time to use the molds; the candy had reached the 'hard crack stage' at 315 degrees F. And when I was about to pour it into the molds, Laura pulled out the spoon, over my hand, and a gob of it attacked my finger :( It seared off the flesh on my joint, and bubbled up the rest of the way down. The picture was taken today - At first I felt a sting, then strangely nothing, and then about 30 min later, it felt like my finger was getting cut off. Crazy. If you touch it, it's like a hole in my
finger - so weird. Definitely going to scar, dangit. Before it scabbed you could see the
bone moving under the few layers that now protect it. The first aid ppl said I would be okay though, they put some stuff on it. Oh well our suckers turned out well, and the roomies liked em so I suppose that is good.And we must include a chapter of DInga's relationship so here is dan dancing as 'Dan in Real Life' hahah. Love it. Ciao!

I got some clothes, a book, and some CDs(Harry and the Potters and the Beatles) from the parents. Then on April 25, I had an awesome brithday party and I got the coolest gifts EVER!!! I'll have to tell you about them later. One is really funny! Anyways, your finger looks sickly in the second picture you posted. In the first finger picture it was normally tan. Anyways, how did you react when it happened? I'm sorry that you got hurt. I got to go, Ryan is whining at me. By the way, I look like I am about to eat my gift in the second picture. Anyways, I love you!!!

Hey!! Sorry it's take me so long to comment, but when I first read the blog I was in a hurry and then I just didn't get back!
It was great having you home--I hope it was ok for you. Hopefully you're not totally dreading when you come home for your "summer" break! I really think we'll be able to make things workable. Thanks for the time you spent with the fam and we'll look forward to more when you're home longer.
How is your finger doing now? And why didn't you ever mention it on the phone? Is it healing well & does it still hurt or is it hard to use? BTW, the lollipops look great--and yummy--were they worth the pain?
I love your pics--as usual. Your cheescake looks awesome!! Grandma said you decorated it, so I knew it'd look great. I'm glad it was yummy. I'm sorry your birthday was so sucky as far as we go--we're going to have to work all that out. I do have a couple things I'll try to get in the mail next week--hopefully they'll help a little!
Tiger is really growing up! I'm glad you've gotten to spend a little time with some of my family and gotten to know them a bit.
Well, gotta go for now--unfortunately I've got to get something done around this house....Take care and keep us up to date!! (BTW, we love the "Dinga" update--I had to explain that to Kyle!!)
Have a great day & call sometime, ok? I want to know if the caramel corn turned out---
love ya'--Mom
MORE!!!! Please!!
update...NOW!
