Cookies!

Now these are no ordinary cookies. These are Uncle Biffs Killer Cookies! There is actually a store in California where they make and sell these awesome cookies. I know that your asking yourself.."why these cookies?" There is a story behind them, so I will fill you in.

About 3 years ago I went on a vacation with my family to San Diego California. Longest drive of my entire life let me tell you. We were on our way to find our hotel room and we ended up on some side street. My brother had to flip around because unfortunately that was not the street that we needed. As he flipped around, low and behold there it was...Uncle Biffs Killer Cookie shop. I guess you just had to be there, because we were laughing about this the whole enire time,because of the name. Even my mom was laughing..haha!

Anyways, my niece and nephews just got back from San Diego on Friday from spring break. I told Brittany to bring me back something cool. I met them at my moms on Friday when they got back and Kasey handed me this box. I was thinking it was some little Knick Knack or something. I looked at the sticker on the top of the box and it said, "Uncle Biffs Killer Cookies!" haha They actually found this place after 3 years. I was dumbfounded. I guess their hotel was somewhere around the same place and they found it. So that was cool. The cookies are good, but Bethies are so much better! :) Thanks guys for the cookies, your awesome!

Sorry to bore you with my ramblings, I thought it was funny that they found this place again.

I just have to post this because I'm so excited! :) I went to weight watchers last night to weigh in and I was feeling a little down because I didn't think that I would lose anything. Well, there was no reason for me to feel down because I got on the scale and I lost 2.8 pounds! Taking my total weight loss up to 14.2 pounds. Oh my gosh!! I don't know how I did that but It sure feels good. :)

Keeping in touch with good friends :)

I'm a little behind on posting this, but I guess its better late then never, right?
Friday night Bethie and I got together with 2 of our friends that we used to work with. It was awesome to see them. Autumn just had a baby and you wouldn't have known, she looked great! And Shelly...this girl is amazing! She's lost 31 pounds since January on weight watchers. Way to go Shell, you look awesome! :) It was great to relax and catch up on everything.

From bottom left..Bethie,myself,Autumn and Shelly.

We finally made it on Saturday to.........


Yeah,this store is pretty much AMAZING! We walked in there thinking we would be out of there in like a half hour to an hour...NOT!!! We were in there for 2 loooong hours..hehe. Anything you can think of this store has and in any shape or form that you would like it in. WOW! I found my "dream" kitchen in there, but I was stupid and didn't take a picture of it. So when we go back...hehe I will definetely take one. I just bought a stovetop grill and some measuring spoons, nothing too dramatic. If you haven't been there, you should check it out! I plan on going back soon I hope.
Tomorrow is weigh in again. I didn't post anything 2 weeks ago because I didn't really have anything to post and besides I gained a pound. But last week I lost .2 and I'm hoping for more this week. We shall see. Keep your fingers crossed for me. :)

Our ROCKIN' Easter Weekend!

We took a trip to Logan again for Easter weekend because Bethies Grandpa wasn't doing very well. We spent Friday with him and Monday morning he passed away. We are happy that he is no longer suffering and free from pain.

Saturday we spent some time with Becky,Tim, and Carrie. We went to breakfast and then spent some time at Borders Bookstore, but it didn't take Tim long to try and herd us all out of there. I guess books are not his thing. He should of spent some time with Karl and Derek, guns would of kept him busy for a while longer. After that we went to Sams Club on the hunt for some packages of gum for Derek and while on the search, we located the best kid candy ever! FUN-DIP...yum! Carrie insisted that Tim buy her some because its her favorite.

Karl and Beckys house was sounding good about now after running around so much. So we decided to go there and just hang out, take a nap, and of course play a little GUITAR HERO. I love this game, it ROCKS!

This is me concentrating so so HARD! Check out my eyes...HAHA!

Here I am again with Tim playing along and Becky doing I don't know what! LOL

Here is Mike and Carly joining in on the fun. They were awesome!

We also played Singstar. If you like Karioke, you'll LOVE this. Carly and Becky..this one is for you! :) Sorry its kind of dark, but at least you can at least hear them ROCKIN' out!

Here is Mike and Carly singing Singstar!

Saturday night we met everyone at Golden Corral for dinner. It was packed of course but the salad and everything was YUMMY! Here is a cute pic of Holly at dinner. :)

It was a fun yet busy weekend in Logan. It was great to see everyone!

We left Sunday afternoon from Logan and headed home. My family was having Easter dinner and I wanted to spend a little time with them. The weather was great so Bethie and I walked to and from my brothers house. :)

Here is a picture of my beautiful niece Brittany. LOVE HER!


This is my silly mom. She wouldn't let me take a picture of her, so here she is behind the camera getting a shot of me haha!

My dad wouldn't let me get a pic of him either. This is the best I could do. Check out the tooth pick in his mouth LOL

Here is Kim,Stacey and Brit working on some wood candle holders for Kaseys baseball auction.

Here is my nephew Kasey and my soon to be step nephews, Tanner and Colby. Looks like they had a little too much to eat. :)

Thanks everyone for a great Easter this year! I hope you all had a good one too.

Sorry for the long post. Just a quick update on my weigh in for last week. I lost a whopping 2.4 pounds. Taking my total up to 12.4 pounds! :) I'm a little scared for this week with all the yummy food and candy that I consumed for Easter. It sure isn't easy when there is a holiday that rolls around like that.
