Shopping worth Blogging for...

I haven't blogged in a month...I haven't done anything worth while to blog about...and then I think you don't have to do exciting things to blog about stuff...and then I think nobody reads my blog anyway so I should delete it...and then I think maybe there is an off chance somebody actually does...but then I think I'm not a mom I don't have a family why blog?...So then I'll try and use my blog to be crafty and share my ideas...and then I realize I am NOT crafty!!...And then I actually blog....So here is my not so family oriented sucky at crafts blog.

Throw in some Taylor Swift


Having a bad day?! Throw in some Taylor Swift! She is the perfect go to girl for bad days and even good days...when you're in a certain mood she can pick ya up! Sing your heart out and blare the music really really loud...it doesn't matter which song every one she sings tell you a different message and will help with a different problem.

I am not one who hates Taylor Swift, I actually really love her music! found it very helpful, she is talking to YOU in her good girl gets the bad boy every story has a happy ending songs. However, I want to say that Taylor Swift can only help so much...eventually your going to have to turn off the radio and follow YOUR OWN heart, not the one Taylor Swift wants you to have. Her music is like a movie you listen to it and thats the way you want to live your life.

BUT...after having a few bad days recently I found Taylor Swift to be a little to much. I needed to realize what is good for me...turn off the radio and do what I feel like I need to do, not follow a girl who probably really hasn't had an actual teenage anything...( I mean do you walk the red carpets? How would she know?)

I am strong. I didn't need Taylor Swift to tell me how to become this way I decided to become this wayy on my own! Because I turned off the radio and listened to my own heart and followed my own dream.

ps...I still listen to her music I just have a different view on it. haha :)

The grocery list.

There is always a grocery list on our counter in the house. At the beginning of the week my mom will write one or two things that we need on a post it and stick to the counter, as the week goes by the list will slowly get added onto. This weeks list my dad started and it had all the basic stuff HE needed...I.E. shaving cream, shampoo, razors ect...Sooo I decided I wanted to add a couple things to the list that I needed, or wanted. I added chocolate milk sauce (because I was craving it!)

TODAY- My mom and my grandma and I went to the store to do all the grocery shopping and my mom pulls out the list and asks "Kaylee did you cross off your chocolate milk mix." Me- "NO" Mom- "then your dad must of done it." Me-"WHAT, no we still have to get that!" Mom- shows me the list. Sure enough my chocolate milk sauce is crossed off!!

My dad can write out a list a mile long of everything HE needs but I write ONE measly little thing and it get CROSSED off!!! How fair is that!! Needless to say, I got the chocolate milk sauce, and my dad didn't even notice. :) hehe

White Wonderland

Woke up this morning to a wonderland of white! SNOW everywhere!! haha! I am not one who usually likes the snow...however this morning it was sort of peaceful and beautiful! I know that as winter gets worse and keeps coming I will eventually hate the snow but lets take a moment and enjoy it today!! :) Outside my front door!

My pumpkins all covered in snow!
Rusty, he hates going outside in the snow :(

Oh PLEASE....

I am the worlds worst blogger. I have said this before!! So I am so very sorry for the horrid updating...let me just give you a quick run of whats been going on...

#1-I moved home from St.George. ( for a bunch of reason despite what some people might think)

#2-As most of you have already seen, my grandpa Gourley passed away a couple weeks ago. That has been taking up most of my time, spending it with my grandma and helping her when needed.

#3- I have a new job, its the same job that I had over the summer, its just recent. :) I missed it actually I really enjoy working there!!

These things have made me a very busy person and not to mention I am lazy so sitting down for a certain amount of time to blog about mundane activities of my life seemed pointless at the moment. I will start to blog again!! I miss it! :)

see ya all laterzz for now

Bad Blogger

I realize I have been a bad blogger lately and I feel really bad about that. :( I am sorry to anybody who reads my blog. The past couple weeks have been really crazy...I recently just moved home from St.George..sadly I had to leave. I am glad to be home and close my family and friends but I will always miss my friends down in St.George. I also just celebrated my 20th Birthday!!! WOO!! It was very exciting and fun haha we had a party at my house and yes it got out of control. (who knew!)




Also this past week I went to the Zoo!! With Katie's school and it was soo fun...I love the Zoo and I always have. Even if I am 20 the Zoo will always be my favorite! :)

Its also Halloween time!! :) I have been buying pumpkins like crazy...still deciding what to do with them but whatever it may be its going to be cute!! :) I can't to blog about Halloween costumes and parties!!

Pushing Daisies.


If you have talked to me in the past couple days you will know that recently the only thing I seem to be doing is watching the TV show Pushing Daisies. Its a crazy show with quirky humor and of course some forbidden romance and triangles and mystery and always a sort of happy ending. (until the next show when the plot thickens) Its a show about a guy who can bring the dead back to life by touching them but if he touches them twice they go back to being dead forever. Of course there are rules to this...He can touch a person they come back to life, if they stay alive for more than one minute than another person has to die. Basically its like a life for a life type of thing. Ned (the guy who can touch the dead and the main character of the show) uses his "gift" to get the bad guys! He touches murder victims and they explain how they died and who killed them and volla murder solved! Bad guy put in jail! Of course there are other plots and twists and turns through out the show but the main one which is still a problem and sadly probably wont be figured out because the show was cancelled and there are only two seasons :( Ned, was about to touch a girl who had been murdered when he saw who it was he touched her and didn't touch her again so there for somebody had to die in her place...She was Chuck, Ned's childhood sweetheart. Though out the show they fall in love again but the tragic part...they can't touch or else Chuck will die again. I am sad that I will never get to see if Ned and Chuck will ever really last or if he touches her again or what happens because I am almost finished with season two and its not ending well its just sort of leaving you with a lot of un answered questions and a mysterious man who is after Chucks fathers pocket watch, for which I have no idea.


I am sorry for blabbing about this show but it has been fascinating me for days now and I just wanted to share it with you!!

Days of Fall..


Living down in St.George I haven't really noticed that it is fall yet, but traveling up north and actually feeling it for myself made me realize that it is FALL!! I LOVE FALL!!! My mom said that the reason why fall is my favorite is because its my birthday season..and she isn't wrong but I think I would like it anyways...
I love the way fall smells. My favorite smell of fall is pumpkin anything haha :)
I love the crunchy leafs falling and changing colors..
I love bright fall sunflowers.
I love football.
I love wearing cute sweaters and hats.
I love pink cheeks.
I love hot chocolate.
I love Halloween and dressing up.
I love Thanksgiving and family gatherings.

I think that everything is more beautiful in the Fall and people are getting excited because the big holidays are just around the corner and another year has gone by...Summer its been a good one but Hello Fall I can't wait to see what you have in store! :)

Sooo like I said before...It has been a long while since I have golfed and I have been hitting range..well yesterday my dad called me and asked if I wanted to golf with him so I said yes because even tho I kinda hate golf..I just kinda love golfing with my dad. haha :) He is fun! and Yesterday he was hilarious! We had to WAIT for like a half an hour to even tee off because there were REALLY REALLY slow people in front of us..but once we got going they let us pass through and then they got in trouble for being so slow and had to leave. ...I was just about to tee off on number 7 and I heard my dad chuckle and I looked behind me and there was the player assistant driving like a bat outta hell towards to the slooowwww people..and she had an evil look on her face she was pissed. haha :) here is a pic..my dad said this is the face he makes when he has to wait to play golf!!

Bee's take 2


Time again for the Bee's game!! :) gotta love those Bee's I got tickets again from work and guess what?!? THEY WON THIS TIME!! haha It was a pretty good game! The other teams manager got thrown out and there was big fight between him and the ump! It was funny...the music that played while they were fighting..."Hit the Road Jack" The entire stadium was singing along and "BOOing" We were being really sincere about it tho. It was again Katie, Chris, me and...new person..PJ! He totally made the night! We had a minor mishap with the fourth person and PJ happened to be there at the right time! :) He had never been to a Bee's game before and the ticket guy asked him how he got to be with all the cute girls he was with...he said it musta been his money cuz it sure wasn't his looks!!! PJ felt so bad after that guy said that to him! So we had to make sure he knew he was beautiful! Ha ha it was awesome!!! :) Good game..good company!! Thank you much work!! (Jacob)
