My Cake

The other day I felt the urge to make a cake...so I did. Below is the damage.

Tsk...Tsk...look at that mess.

Mmmm....Cake.

Salt Lake Highland Games

Saturday was the Salt Lake Scottish Festival!

I don't know if anyone else experienced the rain like we did at Thanksgiving Point, but it felt like hurricane season in Florida. Tents were blowing over each other. Rain was pelting us from all directions. People were scattering like ants being sprayed with Raid. Lightning....thunder....environmental chaos!

But none-the-less,

Come rain, come wind, come......

...hurricane,

...we will be there ready to play!

(warming up our hands by swinging them around- 'Survivor Man' is a useful show!)

Brandon acting like a child at lunch.

Me being dared to eat a soggy fry.

We had a ton of fun despite the elements.

Me, Crazy Aunt Rose and Brandon

We did see some sunshine and rain free skies. Lucky it occurred around competition time for us!

We took 1st place in all 3 of our competitions! (we won't mention the fact that there were no other grade 3 bands to compete against in 2 of those competitions. ahem.)

We took first place out of 4 drum corps for the Drum Salute! Wahoo!

Our Grade 4 band took 4th place out of 10 bands. Way cool for their very first competition!

Sara is a happy, soggy puppy.

Check.

I took my MPJE exam today. I think I passed...?

MPJE= Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Examination= big fancy words for Law Exam

Scotland 2010...Out.

Hey everyone who was planning trips to Scotland to watch us in the World Pipe Band Championship of 2010,


The W&D Pipe Band will NOT be going to Scotland in 2010 due to inadequate numbers of players. We are shooting for 2011 though.

Please do NOT book your trips for 2010 (Unless you want to go anyway)


Sorry! I am sad too. Maybe we can have a pretend championship in my backyard so y'all aren't so heartbroken. :D

ALSO: Don't forget the Salt Lake Scottish Festival at Thanksgiving point is this weekend! We will be competing on Saturday in the afternoon but there is a ton of other fun stuff to look at and watch all day! Hope to see ya there!

ATT...Finally!

I finally got the authorization to take my final board exams (Authorization To Test- ATT).

MPJE (Law Exam): June 12....I better get to studying!
NAPLEX (Pharmacy Exam): June 29th (Happy Birthday to me!)

X Marks the Spot

Must be in the blood....
