Call me Mrs. Irresponsible

So. I always lose things. and it makes me very mad at myself! and. sometimes. its not even little things. but big important things! and these important things that i lose i need! and i can never find them. and i can never figure out when i lose them. and. it makes me so sad! :( so. that is how i feel today.

also. kyle sold his car. and got a scooter. :) we didn't get as much money that we want for it. but it was enough to buy the scooter. we are hoping to save on gas money. and kyle will be driving that to work and school. we put it up on craigslist today. and like. it was gone. so fast. it still hasnt sunk in yet that we dont have his car anymore. i'm a little sad that we didnt have any extra to put away. but. its ok i guess. 

his scooter is pretty cool. to me its still scary. because people will still not see him all that great. and if he was to get in an accident there wont be much to help save him. and that worries me. but. its nice and blue. and pretty big. if i was going to school. i'd want one too tho.

bringing home the bacon...

kyle works too much... haha. 
ok. no. not too much. just has a messed up schedule that makes me miss him so much. if it was normal. it wouldnt seem too bad. but. i hate when he has to go into work at 12 and come home at 9. :/ it is just way to weird for me to be comfortable with. 

i would love for him to come home earlier. me make him dinner. (well... maybe not good dinner). dessert. movie. perfect day! haha. i can only wish.
i like that kyle has monday and wednesday off. and normal.ish kinda days on thursday and saturday. for coming home. i just want a better schedule. but. i guess i really shouldnt complain because. its only gonna get worse now that kyle is going to be going to school. :/ man.

oh. and i made this super delicious dessert. we had dinner for peggie's birthday and since i cant cook. i can kinda bake. and i did dessert. yum.. i brought the sherbet cake. and made strawberry shortcake as well. dont they look super delicious!?



this is how it looks without the whip cream. but. its made of little bits of angel food cake. this pudding/ cool whip/ nutella and strawberries. :) yummy!

The anniversary that doesn't really matter anymore.

We're married now. our true year anniversary shouldnt matter anymore. should it?
Well. I thought that maybe it should be recognized at least. not exactly celebrated. but. we tried to have a nice dessert. which. i'm usually very good at making. and. i had some really good ideas!! like. some of the best that i've seen so far. 

lately. i've been OBSESSED! with blogging. and looking at all kinds of craft blogs and food blogs. and i stumbled upon this one blog with this awesome cake. and. it looked amazing. and. mine... haha. like a big giant covered donut. this is how it ended up looking.

so. when we went grocery shopping. kyle was like. hey. why dont you buy the extra creamy whip cream. and i'm like. ok. that kinda sounds like a good idea. but... it turned out to be the worst decision. because. the cool whip was just wanting to melt before i could squeeze it out of the bag. and i ended up just grabbing it by the handfuls (hands were washed!) and just slopping it on the cake.


this is kinda what the cake is made up of. it is 3 layers of angel food cake. with sherbet as the filling. and topped with cool whip. it tasted so good. minus the cool whip. it was a bit heavy. so. next time i make it. i'm getting the regular. even maybe lite. but. the plan was going to have ruffles going all the way up. it started off great. the cake was chilled for an hour and then i put the cool whip on. but. by then. everything was melting. and. it got so messy! learned my lesson! 


tons of cool whip left over! good for writing my dear husband messages.

:) i love my sweetie so much! alot of important things happened this last year. i moved to an awesome place. i had an awesome boyfriend. who became my fiance. who became my amazing husband. i have my future planned. i got to go to college. it has just been a great year. and. i've had kyle with me through everything. he's always been there to help me. with planning our wedding. with the separation anxiety of being away from my family. with the suffering of the late night drives home as we were dating. he is just the best guy ever. he makes me happy. and. i get to keep him forever. :)

p.s. did you notice my hair cut? very different. very short. and. very cute!!
