Double Bubble


I am addicted to Double Bubble bubble gum! It all started with girls camp. It's tradition to have a Double Bubble bubble gum contest, to see how many pieces of gum one girl can fit in her mouth. Last year I fit 34 in my mouth. This year it was only 20, but we had extra big pieces this year and when I got home and weighed them they were twice the size, so I really don't know how many. The winner last year had 71 pieces!! I am not trying to be the winner, just striving for a personal best. Now I can't get enough chewing Double Bubble. Karlie and I snuck off to the grocery store the other night and I sent in her in for more gum. I thought she understood my addiction, but she came out with 5$ worth of Orbit gum. NOooooo! I went back in to the store and bought 5$ worth of Double Bubble.


Baseball is over for us for the year! Yeaa! Sydney had her last game on Thursday. She made some really good plays over the season, and I know she could be a awesome player if she was motivated enough. She is a fast runner. She takes after her Mom. He he.

Last night we took her on a date with me and Lynn. We had to go to a neighbors wedding reception and then we went to Panda Express, one of her favorite places to eat, and then we went ice skating at Seven Peaks Ice Arena. It was fun and Sydney really got the hang of it after a while. I decided I needed to practice going backwards and ended up on my butt and crashing into Sydney. Not as young as I used to be. Then Lynn decided we needed ice cream, because we weren't cold enough and we went to the BYU Creamery. We noticed a big display of Apple Beer in the store. (Isn't this suggesting?) Oh well.


Today, Lynn got up at 5:30 to go play golf, yes that is a.m. Crazy. So, Ian, Sydney and I are just hanging out this morning. Karlie had a sleep over last night with a friend and she had Young Womens this morning, they helping on an Eagle project. Lynn is still not back yet. I guess he decided to play 18. He and Karlie are playing in the couples league on Thursday nights where they are the youngest couple. One lady asked him if he knew Larry Abplanalp. She went to school with him and asked if he was still alive? That's how old they are. Just kidding, but ya, funny. (Sorry Larry)
Just keep'n ya updated! Love ya! Millie

First Blog!



Hi Everyone,
June 26, 2007

Well, since everyone is creating their own blog, I thought why not? Since I can't find time to journal or scrapbook, maybe this could serve as both and I can share it with family and friends and they will know what we are up too! Ha ha. Anyway, thanks Darrin and Greg for your inspiration in this and thanks for sharing your life with us on your blog. I love being kept "in the know."


This is what's new at our house. I just passed my realtor's exam last Thursday, and now I am officially on my way! I will be working for Coldwell Banker here in Spanish Fork. They just opened a new office by Wingers and it is very nice. I share an office with another person, but I have my own desk! And they gave me a KEY to the office. A shiny silver key. O.K. I haven't been out in the real world in a very long time and I am excited about this. Karlie made me a cake to celebrate passing my test. She got fondant, (icing for cakes) for her birthday and has been experimenting with it. She is very creative. Here are some pictures of her cakes.
O.K. this is a work in progress. It just took me two hours to figure out how to download pictures. Stupid computer. Anyway, Happy Anniversary to my Mom and Dad! I can't ever remember what day in June it is, by I know it's around the end! I love you both!
