Glass Candy

So my friend Kelci and I had some sugar and we had some food coloring and we had some time, so.... we made some glass candy.  Sadly, my cinnamon flavoring must've been a little old, because I used half the bottle and our glass candy tasted like what it was-- Sugar. : (  We still had fun though.  I like this Kelci girl a whole lot.  She's great.
We decided to put the coloring (not the flavoring) in after we poured the mix out.  So we got a pretty cool swirl effect.

Odds and Ends

Its been a couple of weeks since I blogged so here are just a few odds and ends over the last few weeks.
Brooke and I made Pumpkin Rolls!!  They turned out delicious... good enough that I forgot to take pictures of them.   
Brooke also helped me decorate the Christmas tree.  Sadly enough I did not get a picture of the finished tree either and now my camera is being ridiculous. Sorry.
This weekend was our family christmas party and once again problems with the camera so I didnt get any pictures, but here is one with Connor boy.  He learned how to say my name this weekend!  Yesterday Dolly called and said that she was looking at her blog and Connor saw a picture of me and said, "Alycen" and then went and got the phone and said it again!  I feel so special! 
And then there was this!  Monday was my two year mark of being home from my mission.  So Adam, being the nicest boy in the whole world got me flowers and took me to dinner!  He is so sweet.  I forgot to take pictures on monday so here we are in our pajamas on tuesday.  We watched Home Alone and got more excited about Christmas.  Also, if you look closely Adam decided to cut his hair... into a mullet.  I feel kinda weird that I like it so much!  : ) tonight I'm gonna cut cat scratches on the sides!  : ) You're only young once right?!

A New Way to Stay on Top!!

This weekend Mr Adam took me snow shoeing for the first time!  It was so much fun.  We didn't go very far because we got distracted making a new best friend and snow angels, but I had a good time.  So if any of you were wondering what dear sweet Adam looks like, here he is

HaHa.  Isnt he cute?   I kinda like that he's balding!!!!   No this is Guido!!  We hope he'll stay up all winter.  He's pretty packed! So hopefully he will. 
This is Adam and I and Guido.  I have almost no winter clothes so I had to borrow almost everything so I hope you like the hat!!!!! 
 
Once again no making fun of the clothes.  PS isnt Adam pretty cute?  I think so. =)
But then again he did white wash me...  Well sometimes he treats me like a lady.  Ok, most of the time.  He's still a boy though and couldnt resist such a skinny target as I! =)
