Wedding Cake

I made another wedding cake about two weeks ago!! It was for a girl that i knew when i worked at smart cookie!! This cake gave me some problems....but i think it turned out ok in the end!! Chocolate fondant is not the easiest!!

I had so much fun hanging out with my cousin Brinley!! She makes me so happy...her little brain is amazing..and the things she says are so funny!! One example..we were waiting at the church for the luncheon to start for Davids wedding and i was with brin and she said: Hey lets go sit over here and just talk about some things..we just need to talk about things!! It was so cute and funny!! I miss ya Brin!!

Uncle Dale came over a bit ago to eat some dinner and hang out...but of course i wanted a ride!! I love going on motorcycle rides..it is my favorite thing to do whenever i get the chance..so he took me ..and we were gone for like an hour..it was awesome!!

Shooting in Spokane~~

This is a S & W .38 special: This is a 22 i think:
And this is my favorite 357 magnum...i will have one of these some day!!

Well I love shooting..and when we were all in Spokane for Davids wedding we did some and i loved it!! I am pretty good!!

Hum.... When you do right...he comes!!

Well this is kinda a personal blog..but I think its ok to share!! I am pretty much 100% that everyone knows that when you are doing good and trying your best to fallow the lord and his teaching...reading your scriptures and paying a full tithe... that Satan tries harder and harder to make you fail!! But the thing is he can make your day horrible ..he can make you grumpy..he can do so many things but...the one thing that he does that is the scariest and the most effective, is feeling the presence of him in the comfort of your own home!! I know this has happened to a lot of people that I love....and it actually brings tears to my eyes even talking about it. I have been doing really good lately in trying to be the best that I can be, reading Scriptures etc.. thing that I have not been so good at before!! Last night as I got into my bed, getting comfortable with my annoying sunburned legs....I reached over and turned out the light!! And all the sudden it happened ..that horrible feeling, that feeling of the presence of evil...the feeling of uncontrollable fear!! As I laid there I knew in my heart and mind that Satan was trying to scare and enter his way into my life!! I got this feeling of my chest getting tighter and not being able to get a full breath, that feeling of not being able to speak or help yourself in anyway!! I got the courage and strength to reached over and turned my light on..!! Looking around in total fear and anxiety!! I have talked to my mom about this..and how it has happened to her, ya know you think about this and you are afraid that if anyone hears about it they will think you need to go to the Loonie bin..!! But its real and he is real. As I have talked to my mom about it..she told me that at any time any place that you are feeling that horrible feeling that you say " in the name of heavenly father LEAVE"!! And satan has no choice...he does not have the power over heavenly father and he has to obey!! So as I was laying there in total fear not wanting to move.... Saying it only in my head..but feeling like I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs I said.." in the name of heavenly father LEAVE!! .... don't get me wrong the feeling was still there but it eventually left! Now you are probably reading this thinking ..what a crazy lady..! But in all honesty..its the truth..and it happens more often than you think. It is a paralyzing feeling..a feeling of extreme loneliness..like you need help and you cant get it...the feeling of your chest being pressed upon you can barely take a breath!! Satan is real..I have always wanted to deny that someone can want you to turn away from the lord and his gospel..but its true and in that moment of weakness or hardship..he will be there. He will fight to make you miserable like him. I have been reading my Scriptures.. paying a full tithe..and trying to live my life in a way that I can return to my heavenly father..and receive the blessings that he wants me to have. And yes Satan is there. He knows my weaknesses...and of course I am not perfect!! But with all my might I will not let him take over this amazing life I am striving for. He can come and he can try..but in the end. I am going to be the strong one. And he can be the one to leave and be cast out of my life forever! So in the end I know that was kinda..whoa...but I just wanted to share..that this life is not easy..and things will be placed in your way..and they will strive to get you in that moment of weakness. But with your love of Christ and a continually growing testimony..you can overcome any evil thing that may try to enter into your life. And that I can promise:). Satan is real...and he is there..but the gospel is real...heavenly father is real..he is there..and he has the power over all men. I cant really express in words the true feelings i feel in my heart, but I hope I got a little bit of an idea out!! I know that this situation may or will happen again. But now I have a calm feeling knowing that I can overcome any hardship satin tries to put upon me! And I am so grateful that I have that knowledge:)
