Nerd Quiz: Do you know these answers?

So, no pics with this post. But I just LOVE my nerdy husband! He has a strange and entertaining love for all things superhero and sci-fi. These things actually happened last night:

-Branden made me rewind the TV so that he could watch the preview for AirBender....twice
-He begged for the code on the TV so he could watch Gladiator (I don't want to get comments about this. It's legit, ok. I just lock the rated R stuff)
-We watched 15 minutes of Community last night and there was a Halloween party and the dude that was dressed up like Batman had some really good one- liners, which Branden proceeded to quote until bedtime.
-And last, but not least, we had an Avatar quiz while lying in bed with our eyes closed (seriously, who needs a bedtime story). See if you can answer the tough trivia Avatar questions I asked Branden:

1. What is the name of the "least glitchy" machine that Jake links into when Grace makes them move up to the station in the floating mountains?
2. There is a picture on the fridge in the station. What is the picture of?
3. What does Natiri call Jake at first (i.e. his nickname that means "Stupid")
4. What are the flying creatures called that they ride?
5. When you get your own "flying creature," how do you know which one is yours?
6. What is the natural resource that is being mined on Pandora?
7. The white seeds that float in the air and come from the tree of ______ and are the most _____ spirits
8. What is the name of the place that the Omaticaya live?

B-day Cupcakes & Rodeo

So this is a pic of Jourdyn and her awesome boyfriend. He is Branden and Melanee Approved! He meets all of the criteria:
1. NO FANCY PANTS
2. No dude shirts with fleur de lis and angel wings
3. Receding hairline/bald
4. NOT a DUDE
5. Can look you in the eye and have a normal conversation




Happy 23rd B-day Jourdyn (on June 23rd). It was so kind of her to help me make her some birthday cupcakes!

On Saturday night Branden's family and us and Jourdyn all went to the Pleasant Grove Strawberry Days Rodeo. Thanks mom for the free tickets every year! The strawberries and cream were yummy, as usual!

Everyone got their turn holding baby Blake but I may have hogged him the longest! He fell asleep in my arms....so CUTE!

Ducky Cupcakes II

So, the reason for the cupcakes is that I made them for a mini-baby shower/lunch for my friend Arron at work (and his cute and SUPER pregnant wife, Lisa). I got some balloons and stuck one of these duckies @ everyone's spot at the table. Turned out cute.


I had a little extra batter, so I made som mini cupcakes too and shared them with people @ work.

I am a big fan of the melted frosting now. Makes frosting even regular cupcakes so much easier! Perfect, smooth and shiny!

Ducky Cupcakes - Sooo Cute!

Bottoms up little ducky!

My favorite cupcake book ever!

Why does it make me so happy to decorate cupcakes? Maybe it's the only way an accountant can be creative?

After the donut holes and the marshmallows, it was time for the duckies to go for a swim in magic yellow frosting.

This was so much fun. I can't wait to share them with my friends. I hope they are as yummy as they are cute.

Cutest Cupcakes, Shaved Kitty & Pneumonia

Aren't these awesome! Mums for Memorial Day!!! My sister-in-law gave me the best birthday present ever....a cupcake book! This is the 1st of many adventures I have had with that blessed book!

Black Kitty (yes, that is her name) got shaved this weekend. She sheds too much in the summer. See pic below for what kitty looked like before :)

So, Branden inhaled sea water on our cruise 3 WEEKS AGO and got pneumonia. He has been on antibiotics, but he is still caughing a little. He is starting to get better though. This is him having a mid-day snooze with the kitties with a box of tissues by his head!
