Dress Troubles

So the Miss Utah Pageant is in June and I'm already really stressed out. Besides the fact that I am planning some big events for the great city of American Fork and participating in as many things as possible, I also have to start thinking about the wardrobe and talent part of the pageant. I am always looking online at dresses and have found some that are gorgeous and some that are not so gorgeous haha! My trouble is that none are modest. Well, I take that back, there are modest ones but they are hideous. If anyone has suggestions on where in Utah to find some beautif ul, modest pageant gowns please let me know!
I love all three of these dresses...they are each way different but they all have something that will stand out.
HELP!

Kiyana's Halloween Costume

Kiyana was a LaDyBuG for her first Halloween :) She is so darling!

I had to get a picture of the wings...sorry its a little blurry.


She was eating the pumpkins? Haha it was really random, she just started growling and bit the pumpkins nose! Funny what babies can get away with...

Just Call Me Martha...

So this weekend I have been trying to relax and do some "me" things, and it turned out that most of those things were crafts and baking. I love to do things like that and can't wait to have my own family to do these things with!
This is my Cherry Pie...I was planning on home making the crust but ran out of time, so all I can really take credit for is the awesome lattice design on top and a few secret ingredients ;)

This is the Halloween Gingerbread House that I decorated. I was able to implement some of my cake decorating skills and it actually turned out kinda cute! haha it was so much fun to do it too!

These next couple things are for Becca's new babies (that should be here in a week or two but cross your fingers that they stay in longer!) I justs bought some plain white onesies and some iron on applique thingies and put them together. Too bad they wont stay cute and clean for long haha

This is also for Becca's new girls, its a little scrapbook/photo album/whatever Becca wants to use it as.

Yay for crafting!! I wish I had more time to do things like this all the time! It really made me feel like I was accomplishing, even though I was really neglecting my homework :)
