Alrighty then...This blog is going to be about a few different things. Lets get started:

It was my sister Brittany's 19th birthday on the 10th of July. My parents weren't home due to a work trip, so I figured I would make some cupcakes. I invited her and Kyle (her b/f) over and Brittany asked me..,"Well how are you going to fit 19 candles on one cupcake?" Oh yah, I did it. I went to the good ol'dollar store and found these really cool candles. They are really long and skinny, so they were perfect for this occasion.

Here she is posing and then after we sung (Christine & I) she blew out the candles...

Nicole and Daniel along with Caleb came too that night. I'd like to say the only reason was for Brittany's birthday, but it so wasn't. Daniel and Nicole were borrowing my parents Jimmy for the couple weeks they were gone, and the night before Brittany's birthday, the ball joint broke. It really didn't shock me when it happened, because every time you borrow a vehicle, something is bound to get broken. We got the Jimmy towed to my house, thanks to my friend Mike, and the guys began to fix it. It was a pretty busy night actually. My motherinlaw stopped by with Katie. Danielle came later at night. Mike was there helping with the Jimmy. Caleb was around. Christine and Brittany were in the house. Kyle and Nicole were watching the guys. It was good. We had beer, cupcakes and pizza. mmmm...

So I was outside today and started looking around. There were so many stupid weeds growing everywhere. That's basically the only thing that is growing around here really. I pulled out 2 huge piles and I've got to go back out again to pull some more. They grow all in our gravel driveway. We're planning on either paving or doing something with it next year. Gravel driveways suck though. Our house is actually the only one on our whole road that have it.

When I was outside picking these dumb weeds, I noticed that my bean plants don't have these wierd green thingys on them anymore. I was almost going to freak because I thought that the ants had eaten all of the buds, when I saw that instead of those wierd green thingys, there were actual beans on them now! I was so excited. I picked and ate the ones that are big and there are a lot more still growing. I grew the beans seeds in little plastic pots and then transplanted them into the garden once they got big enough. After a couple weeks I noticed a lot of holes in the leaves and they were turning slightly brownish. I looked around and there were sooo many ants around the plants. So, to get rid of them or at least get them to stop eating the plants, I sprayed everything with soapy water. This did the trick.

We live on a corner lot, so we have a road sign pole on the corner of our lawn. Well I guess because that pole is there, so many other people think that they can put their signs up in the same place too. It makes me to mad because when I cut the grass I either have to go around them or flip them over to cut underneath them. These signs are sooo heavy. Sometimes we put them on another street corner or try to hide them, but they always seem to be placed back onto our lawn. Ok, so lets say the township owns that area by the road. They should be the ones cutting the grass there then. It makes that corner look so ugly sometimes. James and I are going to burn them sometime. haha. We want them gone so bad. The big one will be there until the new subdivisions are completed and every one has been bought. This could be for a least another year or so. A few weeks ago there were 3 real estate signs up. All by that Wayne Schilstra. There is also another sign that is like that triangle one, but like 3 times smaller. I think it might still be inside the big one. That's where James last hid it. haha.

Oh yah, one last thing. Kraft dinner is the BEST! I love it sooo much right now. These are my favourite 2 kinds. I'm actually going to go and make some right now.
