a quick post

hey, look! its an outfit post!

I keep taking pictures of my outfits, but then I never post them because I don't like how they come out. Which is pretty lame...
A friend of mine took these pictures with her magical camera. Seriously, her camera is so great. I didn't even edit these!  

I always feel so dorky in front of the camera. I couldn't stop laughing!

(Shirt: Ann Taylor, Cardigan: Banana Republic, Pants: Borrowed from my friend Whitney, Shoes: Cole Haan)

I think this is the funniest picture ever. We were supposed to be modeling, but I just couldn't keep a straight face. :)

Well, that's it for today. I'm off to make cookies with my friend Laura!

two pictures that have nothing to do with anything.

So, I had a pretty fabulous weekend.

First, I woke up at 7:00 (!!!) and helped my friend with his Eagle Scout project. We made hats for baby's in Haiti! Cool, huh?

After that, I went home and went on a THREE MILE RUN/jog... It feels sooooo good to be able to exercise again! I don't think I ever blogged about it, but I tore my ACL in October. I didn't tear it bad enough to get surgery (thank goodness) but I haven't been able to do any physical activity until now! So yeah, i am really, really happy that i can now participate in sports. :)

Then I helped my family clean out our pig-sty of a garage.

THEN i got my haircut and went antique shopping for a whole 5 minutes.

And later that night, the missionaries came over and hung out for awhile.
Anyways, the point of this post is that I feel really, really accomplished, because I did so much this weekend! And i am so so so so so so so so so so so so so happy that the sun is finally here.

there is no real point to this post

(this picture has nothing to do with the post...besides the fact that it is the most awkward picture ever.)

Awkward: -running into a wall. and then saying sorry...to the wall... ummmm...yeah. this happens to me all the time.

-having to call members of my church to remind them of a upcoming party. i have this weird phone-phobia. i just cannot talk to people on the phone! so i had this whole speech written out ("hi my name is CasiDee from the council creek ward. I'm calling to tell you that this Friday...") and each time i made a call, i got one of two responses: (1) "ummm...yeah. i already knew.why are you calling me?" or (2) "i think you have the wrong number..." great.  

-i went with my friend Laura to her older brother's boxing match. we were standing there, cheering him on, when some old guy with a beard and missing teeth came up to us and said: "you two are the prettiest girls here." and then winked and ran off.

-i accidentally broke my friend's finger while playing football with him. oops!

Awesome: -I went out to eat with my friend the other day. the waiter asked my little sister if she wanted french frys or tater tots with her meal. I then giggled and said: "Laura...give me some of your tots." and the waiter, with out even looking up from his pad of paper, said: " No, I'm freakin' starving! I didn't get to eat anything today! Freakin' idiot!" in the most perfect Napoleon Dynamite voice you will ever hear. it was like Napoleon himself was taking our orders. Laura and i started laughing so hard. we were crying, and mascara was running down my face. then the waiter said: "...i can tell this is going to take a while...should i come back?" which made us laugh even harder.  

-we then went back to Laura's house and spent 2 hours learning the Napoleon Dynamite dance. we freakin kick behind at it, guys. for reals. maybe I'll post a video sometime...

-for a project, i had to interview the missionaries in my ward. i asked them who their favorite super hero was and why. one of them said: "Jimmer Fredette and the Bishop, because they both know how to effectively further the work of the Lord along."

now, for more awkward pictures. because i cant think of anything to say because my mouth hurts soooooooooo bad. dang braces.

just kidding. that last picture...that's awesome.

Love,

CasiDee

over spring break i...

grew a mustache,

made cookies with my little sister,

had a photoshoot with my beautiful friend whitney,

and had a sleep over with her too!

and then i hung out with this cutie patootie and helped her make some youtube videos of her singing.

spring break was so much fun, and now i'm even more antsy for summer to come! how was your spring break?

My Awkward and Awesome Week!

(thanks to the wonderful whitney for taking these pictures!)

so, i absolutely love the idea of "Awkward and Awesome Thursdays", but I seem to never have time to blog on thursday! so i'm gonna cheat and do my "Awkward & Awesome" on a Saturday. deal with it. ;)




Awkward:
-the amount of pictures of myself this post has. hahaha, modeling is not my forte.
-how long it took me to figure out the correct spelling of "awkward". i seriously do not know what I would do without spell check.
-you know that moment when you feel like someones looking at you, so you look up and see that someone is, in fact, looking at you? and then you make eye contact with that person and neither one of you look away? and its super awkward and you don't want to be the first one to look away but you just cannot stand staring at this person any longer? and then you finally look away, and you feel really dorky? yeah, this happened to me today. with a missionary. that's not even from my ward. during general conference. can you say, embarrassing?
-looking over at my friend during biology to see that she is reading the dating issue of the New Era. during biology, guys. who does that? and not only is she reading it, but she is reading it out loud. to the kids around her. I'm not sure if this should be awkward, or awesome...
-having a conversation with someone while going to the bathroom. 'nuff said.


Awesome:
-having all  of the youth over this morning for general conference!
-getting new missionaries. (oh...and one of them used to model for Abercrombie & Fitch.)
-getting my permit!!! I am going to be the best driver ever.
-the offical guide to stuff mormons like. this is one of those laugh-until-you-cry things. I especially love the "Church Dances" post. because what they say is so true.
-my friend posted this video on my facebook. i laughed so hard.

so there you have it! the awkward and awesome things that have happened to me this week. I'm not that great at writing on my blog, so I'm hoping by doing this i will get better!
