Our house is built like a casle. It is made out of cinder block, and so it does not keep heat in very well. Around the house you will see me in multiple sweaters with hoods on to keep me warm. But it is nearly imposible to warm up my feet. I will put layers of socks on, but my feet are so ice cold that they never quite thaw out. I have had to invent creative ways of keeping my feet and toes at a comfortable temperatuer. One way is to find one of our cats and have it sit on my feet. It is a rare ocation when this works becasue cats have a mind of their own. and dont like to sit were they are put. A more effective way is to have some one sit on my feet, but as the house hold gets smaller it becomes more difficult to find a person who will help me. So I have invented a way that is fool proof. I fill the tub with a little bit of piping hot water, and just slosh my feet in it for a wile. Then i dry them off and put on two layers of warm dry socks on. and i try to avoid stepping cold surfaces. Billy happend to walk by when I was doing this, he gave me a weird look and then took a picture.

The Jelly Beans
Jelly beans are one of my favorite candys. I first liked them when we went on a trip to grandmas in idaho, and me and hillary rode with Julie and
Marks family. We had a big bucket of Jelly beans. By the time we got to Idaho, all we had left were the nasty flavors, and dull colors. We also had those Harry potter, every flavored beans, and we would always try to make the other eat the nasty flavors.
The most dreaded flavors were the coffee flavors. When you ate them there would be a sickening mass that eaped from your mouth, and breath. They are pretty discusting. We found out that if you eat a Coffee, lemon, Roasted marshmallow, and popcorn, it would either tast like a Janitors closet, or an airport. That was pretty fun.

We always get a bag of beans. Vera gave me 
some after lindseys wedding, and i think i ate most of the bag, because i was home alone. I got about 2 bags for my birthday, and i still have some of them left, except they are all the discolored, nasty flavors.

My favorite company that makes them is called Gimbles, or something like that. They ahve about 40 flavors. They also have recipies on the back, where you mix different beans to make different things, like blueberry muffins, Rootbeer floats, and other ones.

The pictures are of me emily and hillary sorting the jelly beans into colors; wile mom was away.

Parking....Grr
In travel from kearns up to the U every saturday for Utah Youth symphony... i dont feel like parking far away to walk a wile. So i always park across the street from the Gardner Center (music building). I have parked there for the past 6 months, and never have had any problems, it has a No parking sign with an exeption on saturday/sunday/holidays. Yeserday i was leaving symphony and i got in my car, and drove off.
At a stop light i noticed a paper on my windsheild. I knew it was a parking violation, but i couldnt check until i got home. So i get home and read it, and i got a parking citation, which costs $30. I was a little mad, i havnt told my parents yet, but if they are reading then they know now, and i am paying for it. I could fight it, but its only 30, so oh well. But i think they gave it to me because there is the Sign that says No parking sat/sun/holidays, and then 100 feet in front of that is a sign that says No parking execpt sundays. I was parked in between both of them. Now im a criminal and no body can trust me, just watch out, i might park in-front of your house.

The History of Domino, Melody, and Magenta
Several Years ago we only owned 2 cats, Melody and magenta. We had them for a long long time, then a black cat started appearring in our back yard. One night, me and my cousin Alex, wanted to bring it inside, and feed it. So we kept it inside for the whole night. Somehow my parents found out about it, and so we had a family meeting on if we should keep this cat. We decided to keep her. And had another meeting on what to name her. Domino was the name we decided, because she has a few white spots on her stomach. This wild cat, has been 
the fun part of our house for the last few years. In a cold winter, melody came by me on the couch, and he had something black hanging from his mouth. So i didnt want to have to clean it up if it fell on the floor. So i let him out into the brisk weather. Later-on i walked out side, and melody was dead under the neighbors truck. So ive had to live with that on my concience, but i guess SAVING dominos life, makes up for it. About a year later, domino was looking rather large, we just thought that she was getting fatter. But a few weeks went buy. And then she disappear one day. We found her under Lindseys bed, with 5 kittens. Those little Kittens were really fun. When they were bigger we gave them away. Then we got domino fixed. Domino got fat again, and she still is. Magenta is a very fearful cat, she is melodys sister, and i dont really know if domino and her get together or not. Now Domino will just lay around, and if she gets on your lap she will start to pur, but then attack you randomly. I guess they are still very fun cats to have around.

EMILY AND DAVIDS WEDDING
Well The wedding and reception is over. Now we have a messy house, with a bunch of wedding stuff around, and i dont know where its going. But we can worry about that later. Now that its over, i dont know what we will do, its at least 3.5 years until i can get married, and about the same time for hill. So no more wedding from our family, for a wile, i guess 3 weddings in 1.5 years sucked us dry. SO here are some temple/kissy pictures.

Three Times a Brides Maid Never a Bride.
This Saturday Emily is going to get married! It is an exiting time in our family, I love weddings they are such a happy time for all of us. When Val and Lindsey were married Last summer I was able to take part in there weddings. In the planing, decorating and being part of the wedding party. For Emmy's wedding it is no different. I loving being in the middle of the action, and even thought we are not planning two at the same time it is still very exiting.
For Val and Lindsey's weddings they bolth had there sisters as Brids maids. that means that I was a brids maid twice last summer. Emmy is having her sisters (Val, Lindsey, and Me) and three of her friends form high school (Jessica, cheyenne, and Lindsay) all be brides maids.
OH NO! This brings my count of being a brides maid up to three. And you all know the saying "Three times a brides maid never a bride." who know that at the tender age of 15 I would be cursed just because I have three sisters! oh well Maybe when Emmy tosses her flowers at the reception I can catch them and cancle out the bad luck.

Start of a New Blog
Me(bill6) and hillary wanted to start a blog. We wanted to share the funny discoverys, and give background to our lives. I though it sounded fun, but i dont know what we will have here. Probably funny family pictures we find.
-----Caution----- This blog may be funny, and most storys for pictures may be made up (most will be truths)
And the homealoners is because me and hillary are left home alone most the time now, becasue mom got a job, and dad works. And with emmys wedding coming up we i get to stay home, and make sure hillary has a way to get to all the places to buy something for the wedding. AND i get to pick up mom at work at 11:30, usually i go to bed at 10. So i loose alot of sleep, and dont get up for school until 10 mins before we leave.
Hillary can tell you her tale later.
