After reading one of my relatives blogs, I was given the idea to list things that make me happy on any particular day. I think that I will choose five things, and do them about today!</span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;"></span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;">So, five things that make me happy today are.....</span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;">1. It's sunny outside!! For the first time in about a month!</span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;">2. That it's ok to have coffee and chocolate cookies for breakfast!</span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;">3. I get to shop all day and not worry about any school work!</span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;">4. That I am warm right now because Dad gave in and let me change the thermostat!</span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;">5. It sounds cheesy but true, that I have all the love that I need!</span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;"></span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;">There you go! So maybe I inspired you to make you think of the little things every day that make you happy!</span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;"></span></strong><br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc6600;">Have a marvelous day today!

The day after Christmas my mom and I decided not to brave the crowded malls and crazy people jabbing you for the best deals and stayed at home to do some bonding. Both of us love to bake and quite frankly never have the time to do so. We gathered all of our ingredients and started working. Mom had seen somewhere that a lady made the cutest reindeer cookies and chocolate covered marshmallows. We made our own spin on both and then decided to do chocolate covered pretzels as well! Although the cookie-making came a little later than we would have liked, we now know how to do it and will be on time for Christmas next year! I have so many pictures, I think that I will just put them one after the other and let you enjoy!</span></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzPmDpmvtq8o1yDGdbVqZwgOh2xvIoo9rPlQEYc1Er2FyDWv0JcgD7xt5ebpz9nzp32Za8lIwjQsOaxwNk-boz364IUcRRALYO-fiyWWpnHOj316EMes2eUW1Ou90GXmAjjPvKZstibI2V/s1600-h/cimg0116.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5284867972313051634" style="DISPLAY: block;

I told him that while he was here he couldn't do that :) So since he was suffereing from withdrawals my mom and I took him over to a neighborhood that we new had a pond full of ducks!

Who knew a boy that didn't like sweets would be infatuated with sugary, fattening, christmas trees??? Oh well.

We made the yellow first, then added red to get orange, and then added brown to make brown. We were thinking that it would turn out a dark brown but it never turned dark. We kept adding more and more food coloring but it still looked like runny baby poop! We used it anyways and weirdly enough, after the icing was put onto the cookie it turned darker and looked great!<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVruFRuf0_3lAZtaEsNTcoc34ET9ntaMtq10a4fgD_v8MjPFVqOqnFD0kUuczM-HEsx9W55xgJwTdPIDLmI2EFAiDlLnSBF5QPJ_Mv4Uvo2JzpXvJ1p2sjwHLW62MqNhgfT11BiXkrPVXU/s1600-h/random+006.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5266812415570236274" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVruFRuf0_3lAZtaEsNTcoc34ET9ntaMtq10a4fgD_v8MjPFVqOqnFD0kUuczM-HEsx9W55xgJwTdPIDLmI2EFAiDlLnSBF5QPJ_Mv4Uvo2JzpXvJ1p2sjwHLW62MqNhgfT11BiXkrPVXU/s200/random+006.jpg" border="0" /></a> I think in total we made about thirty cookies and it took a few hours!

It starts out with one of my best friend's is the 7th, then mine is a little later on the 22nd, and then five days later is Ryan's on the 27th! The past two years I haven't been able to come home for my birthday because it falls on a weekday/ or a really inconvenient time to travel. My parents decided to make the treck up to Knoxville just for me the day before my birthday! <div><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254138153343173090" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNCd3a6yAKsh2oRLvz-EVXGpHIdc-cXtfvy1enjALIR1D6Gek5-wQwPNsp28fwad5fRLFpw0IDcbhcKKdmu_WPgvnyRrnDD9EMm54Ql6MTx5sWta8pGYt0703NHHtfKItmPeplv3GZgDXN/s200/ryan+and+kimsey+026.jpg" border="0" /></div><br /><br /><br /><p>My parents are the best parents a kid could ask for! I got my birthday presents wrapped up really really pretty and every single gift matched the other one some how. I guess that just shows what a perfectionist my mother is! They also made a stop by the store and picked up some absolutely gorgeous flowers that lasted two weeks! I looked at them every time I passed them. They give me so much joy it's crazy..and weird, but I love them!</p><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254139291699395138" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBuv81i0-dtRWcj7PkByz_Bf8atliFSNfAMgrFPZ8IG9VshFOo5YnFReQr1UCzOGFYqd3B4dB2f3PJOdrZfDzGKNlj1wHrr87JZizKitl7guqFxk40lEuOCFeYBNgCj7hBSMuJqmbp_zjw/s200/ryan+and+kimsey+022.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><p></p></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254141332203322946" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI_pdBvwbcv0ktg6PuMrg3bJ03QEU1kz42uswxn0mm_dzFurbhyphenhyphenSzT5t1n9yF_gRhBSG6pdxsJ-jS1udVILkse_CKu8atS3K0OOicxtVfTwRfnHrDmeMkxfvhehJbA_midpKhQAFFIyVq0/s200/ryan+and+kimsey+024.jpg" border="0" /><br /><p>My parents came up and hit some traffic snags but got here in time to take me out to lunch! I am SOO so bad at picking out places to eat out, I hate it actually..but I chose a small hippie place on the strip called SunSpot. I don't really reccommed it to anyone actually. There were crazy kids running around everywhere, my sweet potatoe fries were burnt, and it is crowded! But that's besides the point! I had a great time talking with my parents! I love them!</p><br /><p>We toured Farm House after that and dropped Ryan off. I then took them over to Ijams Nature Park. I love it there! I can't wait to actually take them back through some of the trails! We also headed over to the quarry that is right there and walked that trail all the way around.</p><br /><p>To end up the eventful day, we came back and I opened my presents! I was so excited to get all that money for makeup, but I haven't spent it yet :( They were out of everything I wanted. My mom spent a lot of time making one of my FAVORITE cakes for my birthday! Coca-Cola Cake!!! And boy was it yummy!!!</p><br /><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254140614625054514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDyrPKGsmdxVGWCfF8n_HOEYPRKcvYs0RpbW4Tx1pDT3op1ZEzrbjtamtSRfvw5braQk6koYWJNYVfZTDIsUmLapcHshjG8jh8vdLSE8BcVFYDl2JJtqx91vv2qHqbzvLAPWCG8TWFccOJ/s200/ryan+and+kimsey+025.jpg" border="0" /></p></div>Kimseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16501486830229877466noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907275297405435652.post-7750305965156984072008-09-23T19:42:00.000-07:002008-09-23T20:59:05.079-07:00Football Begins!<div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div align="justify"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho4gdVX0ljV2yPrwsWoxLgsGt8r7_wHWAvSWHUrA_cvb5_5S791kblICd9qQcZKeeXFW_XarVyzluQFaYPLk2kAEBB-78g_gMFisUmV_oASIFUHlyMbrdgvIdHkDxrfsa1lT3zxruVcuQD/s1600-h/ut+vs.+uab.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5249416766655290290" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho4gdVX0ljV2yPrwsWoxLgsGt8r7_wHWAvSWHUrA_cvb5_5S791kblICd9qQcZKeeXFW_XarVyzluQFaYPLk2kAEBB-78g_gMFisUmV_oASIFUHlyMbrdgvIdHkDxrfsa1lT3zxruVcuQD/s200/ut+vs.+uab.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="color:#330033;">The home opener vs. UAB kicked off at an early start!

You have to make a bag filled with corn into the hole and whichever team gets to 21 first wins! It's kinda hard but fun!
