I once had a cupcake....

FRIENDS!!! I had a fabulous weekend!
To all of those who have Celiac disease or a gluten intolerance... Sweet Tooth Fairy has the best gluten free cupcakes! I normally would not spend my money on a single cupcake, but I felt like I can when it comes to these yummy things! Plus, I had a coupon for buy one get one free! It has been a little bit since I have had a gluten free cupcake but I made the last one I had. As I walked into the bakery, I was overwhelmed with the sweetness of cakes, and baked goods. I was greeted with a warm welcome, and could not stop smiling when I asked for my gluten free cupcake! Since I was with my mom, I felt like she should get the free cupcake, I got her a red velvet one (I hear those are to die for too!). I couldn't even wait to get home to eat it... yes I bit into in the car, and oh my goodness, it was heaven! The frosting was melting off the top of the cupcake, so it made it a messy but delicious treat! I was very proud of my cupcake purchase. I am embarrassed to admit this, but I ate it before I thought to take a picture, so I apologize!

I had kind of a crappy Saturday morning, so my therapy is different from everyone. I love to drive, clean and organize, and craft. So I took a drive to the craft store and thought of something to make. I had lots of fun. When I came home, I got rid of my papers from this semester, and other papers that I had just kept. I filled up a grocery paper bag of paper to recycle... wow! I feel that my room is a less junky looking, oh what college does to you, I swear the amount of paper I use each semester is enough to fill a forest. Not that I am a tree hugger, but really? I use a lot of paper and I need to cut back I guess. After making my room look fresh, I went to my craft.

I had no idea what I was doing, but I planned to make a wreath for the spring season. Here is a list of things I got just in case some of you want to try, which I am sure you will do a much better job than I did.
-Styrofoam wreath, 8 inches
-silk flower
- 9 ft of ribbon ( I ran out, so I would get two spools)
-buttons, different sizes and colors
-pins with color bead on top
-hot glue
That's it! It was pretty cheap too, and use coupons, to make it even less expensive! I had fun experimenting with where to put the buttons and the flower (which had to cover up the part of the wreath that had no ribbon) It turned out pretty good for my first wreath, next time, I could do better!

I hope you guys are enjoying the nice weather and now that school is out (ah a week will go by fast) I want to relax and not think about school and stress. Just keep smiling and life will bring great things! I love you guys! (Let's see if we can get to 2000 views, in the next couple of months!!!!!)

The journey of my new smile...

I felt like blogging about the journey of getting my new smile. Oh boy! It sure has been a long, painful, and exciting process. In May of  2000 I was riding my bike, like a big girl (I was 8) with a bunch of my siblings and cousins, to my grandma's church (which was just down the street from where she lives. Staying on the side of the road as instructed, there was a man hole cover that was not pushed down all the way. Being toward the back of the bike line I didn't notice that it was up about three or so inches. Everyone else had dodged it and went around it. I, going full speed to keep up went straight over it and flipped over my bike handle bar, bike still in hand I landed on my stomach. I got up, a little dizzy and discombobulated got up thinking that was pretty sweet that I survived that epic crash. I didn't know how bad it was until my sister Kelsey started screaming "Kacey! Kacey! You have blood running down your face!" I immediately put my hand to my face a...

Personal Thought: A simple prayer answered

I had an experience a few weeks ago that helped me realize the power of prayer. This is kind of personal (not kind of... it is very personal), but I wanted to share it and maybe someone could benefit from it. For a while I have had abnormal bleeding (for long periods of time), not thinking really anything of it, I ignored it for months actually. At times it would be pretty painful, took some IB Profin, and I ignored it. I was talking to someone who said that with the IUD that I had, that bleeding that bad was not normal. Again, I didn't think anything of it. Spencer and I have been talking about our future family and this came up in conversation. Spencer is not as excited about starting our family this young but I am all over it. I was surprised when he asked me to go get it checked out, because something could be wrong. It took for me to hear him say that to go schedule an appointment. Of course I looked online of what it could possibly be and then I got nervous. I had be...
