Look at what I made!


We went to the doctor on Tuesday and everything is going great. We didn't find out the gender of the baby, but I have been busy making baby clothes for a boy and a girl (maybe Kelsey can make use of something).
I found this amazingly cute soft minkee fabric in a paisley design and made a sleeper today (Kent is out bear hunting). Isn't it amazing!
I will also post the green and blue booties and cap I made in class (they are being graded). Fun, huh! I am thinking of making more and putting them on etsy, we will see. Oh, and it only took me an hour and forty-five minutes to trace the pattern, cut the pieces and sew it all together!

Thai Into Spring Buffet

I took a meal management class last semester and at the end we had a final buffet that we prepared for ourselves and a guest. Kim had recently been back from her mission and not working yet so she came to my 3:30 dining extravaganza.



Kim's name card says "Kent" because I had originally associated food and Kent together but decided I would love if Kim could come.



I was very pleased with how things turned out because I was the manager and suggested the Thai food theme, because I found a killer Thai Mango Chicken recipe with cilantro and cashews (and mangos of course) that was delicious and in our taste-testing the class before everyone loved it.
I was really glad Kim brought her camera, seeing as how ours is dead and I don't have pictures of anything. So these are pictures from March 30th, but kinda fun!

Update

In exactly one week we get to find out if it is a boy or a girl! Yeah, not that it matters but it makes it more realistic and we haven't had an ultrasound since it was 6 weeks old and the size of a poppy seed. So, I am excited to "see" this baby. I officially wore maternity pants today, haha. Right now Kent is working full time at Melalucea and I am working three quarters time at BYUI and taking seven credits to finally be finished. On Saturday, we went for a drive around Swan Valley and ended up seeing a sign for Jackson Hole, 20 miles away. So being the crazy, random, fly-by-the-seat of our pants that we are we went and walked around Jackson Hole! The pass was so snowy and the truck chugged up the steep road at 20 mph. We took pictures by the antler arches, saw the incredible 20,000 dollar art in the galleries and visited the elk refuge. It was great!
