Passport Picture's

What's up everybody?  I am free.....for a few minutes!  Well, today we went to get our passport pictures taken.  We needed them to get renewed because I need state proof that I am a citizen in the USA.  So that was taken care of this afternoon.   As we were taken our pictures to the government center  my mom told the lady at the counter she had not had my birth certificate.  I told my mom after "I knew I was adopted!"  Just joking in case you don't know me.  Ok so here are some weird, stupid, crazy, miscalanious pictures of me on the way.

 Happy.....for the moment.

 Crazy, and stupid.

 Weird and crazy!

Overwhelmed and hyper!!!!

History Mueseum With the Soderstrom's

Today we went to the History Museum with our friends the Soderstrom's!  It was a lot of fun, but man was it packed!  There were tons of school groups and Elderly groups, everywhere you turned around you would step on someones foot.  But besides the crowd, it was fun!  Here's me, bored and crazy, waiting to get there.

 Okay, so as we were walking to the History center we saw this foot hanging out the car.  It looked VERY real.  I was almost going to look inside the car to make sure nobody's foot was really stuck in there until my mom said it was a joke.  The car was even handicap!  Weird...and SCARY!!!

 Henry watching the old fashioned TV.  He loved turning the switch which changed the channels.

 Here's the group eating lunch after a long day. 

We had a great day, hope your day was even better than mine!

Science Museum!

 On Wednesday we went to the Science Museum, it was so much fun!  Here we are being news reporters.





 Doing experiments in the cell lab.  There was practically no one there!  So we got to choose whatever one we wanted.  Sheep blood here we come! 

 Our daycare Henry is so into electronic!  He always wants the remote, or my camera, even our phone!  He is my little techno chubster!

 Going down the musical stairs.  Kayli and I were trying to beat everyone to the bottom.

 This picture of me looks so CREEPY!  I just had to show you.  I look like I'm in pain.

Kayli doing the same, I had so much fun playing with her.  She was my little buddy, as we call it.
Have a great weekend!

Mall Of America

Don't you just love the saying " Mall Of America!"  I do, and I do so love shopping! I found a groupon in my e-mail where you could get a great discount to got to the Mirror Maze at MOA. Of course we bought it and we had free Northstar Train tickets from the holidazzle parade.  Perfect time to go!  So we rode the Northstar to and from there.  Also we ate breakfast on the train, doesn't a turtle muffin sound good?  That's what I'm eating!

 As I was walking down to the mirror maze I saw this animal hat stand.  I looked in it just for fun and saw the "One".  It is so cute!  My mom was so generous and paid for half, then I paid the rest! Thanks Mom!

 Waiting to go in the Mirror Maze!  Mom hurry, take the picture already!

 It was so confusing.  I kept running into walls and slamming my face into them.  Some of the mirrors were even cracked.  Don't worry, I didn't do any of those.  So fun!

 We finally found the exit( after some time) and at the end were some mirrors that made you look funny.  Here's me and my big, fat, long, and smart brain!  Lol!

There was also another store where there was everything on commercials.  It was called as seen on TV.  Don't you just love the new sun glasses they came up with!  We look like nerds!  Have a great day!

Christmas Snowballs and a Prayer

Don't you just love the smell of fresh baked goodies coming right out of the oven?  I do!  Christmas is a great excuse to make the most wonderful food.  I got this recipe from a website called Recipegirl.com, you should really check it out!  I also just received some news that a friend from our church was in a really bad car accident.  There were four people in the Car.  Mom, daughter, Dad, and Son.  The mom and daughter are both pretty banged up, but there ok.  The reason why they were ok is because they wore seat belts.  The dad and brother did not wear a seat belt and are being rushed to the St.Cloud Hospital.  The dad is on a helicopter and the son is in an ambulance.  Please pray for them, the family would really appreciate it.  Here is a recipe for some snowballs that I am going to make for a Christmas Party.

Snowballs

Yield: 2 dozen cookies

Prep Time: 40 min

Cook Time: 10 min

Ingredients:

FILLING:
6 ounces peanut butter chips
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1/4 cup peanuts, finely chopped
OUTSIDE COOKIE:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups butter, softened
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
powdered sugar
colored sanding sugar, optional

Directions:

1. Combine chips in double boiler and heat until mixture is smooth. Remove from heat. Add powdered sugar and peanuts. Mix well. Let sit at room temperature until firm enough to shape. Roll 3/4-inch balls and set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
3. In large bowl, combine flour, butter and vanilla; knead until well blended. Shape into one 11-inch log; cut into 1/4-inch slices. Lay a slice of dough in your hands and use your fingers to gently spread out. Place a chocolate-peanut butter ball in the center of the slice. Shape dough slice around filling, seal and roll into a ball with your hands. Roll the ball in the powdered sugar (add colored sanding sugar if you're making a holiday cookie), and place on un-greased cookie sheet.
4. Bake for 10 minutes. Cool slightly. Roll in powdered sugar mixture again while still warm.
Have a great day!
