Gingerbread House

This weekend Cali, Mike Channer and I decided to make a gingerbread house and it was a lot of fun. This is how it turned out.... This is what happened to our gingerbread man....he was on the roof and then fell off and broke his neck so we decided to make it just a little bit gory...sorry! it was funny!

Manic Monday!

My First Quilt!

For Young Women in excellence this year we all decided that we wanted to make quilts. For mutual activities and lessons, if we were there that day, we would receive a quilt square that had something to do with that lesson or activity. If you missed the activity/lesson then you would have to do a service project or something in personal progress to earn the square that you missed. It was so much fun to make the quilt and I'm so happy I had the opportunity to learn how to make a nice big quilt. It took a long time to make but I love it! Most of the quilts that the girls made are the size of the middle of my quilt..which is pretty small so I made mine bigger so I could actually wrap up in it!

Happy Thanksgiving!

So I know it is a little late but better late then never right? I hope all of you had a good thanksgiving. Ours was alright but very small this year so it just kinda felt like a normal meal I guess. We normally go to a church and have the whole Strasser family together, but this year we didn't do it that way. Our thanksgiving was just my parents Logan, Levi and I. I've never had a thanksgiving dinner with this little amount of people. It was very weird, but still fun. That night we went to my Aunt Linda's house for pie and then we stayed up until 5am to go to the black friday sales but none of us had money so it was pretty much pointless. we had a good time though!

I Love to see the Holy Temple!

Ok since we are on the theme of temples....I just thought I would share this song with everyone. My cousins Michelle and Estrella made it up. It is to the tune of "Search, Ponder, and Pray"

I Love to see the holy temple, but every time i do
I start to weep and moan, cuz i'm out here alone
I've got no man to take me through
Search, flirt, hope and pray
are the things that I must do
The lord will provide at byu-i, i'll find a love that is true

Then this is Michelle's new verse to the song

I Love to see the holy temple, and every time i do
I grin from ear to ear, cuz my true love is here
I've found a man to take me through
Lots of cousins and play, are the things that led me to
a one Jared guy at byu-i, I've found my love this is true

And this one is Estrella's new verse!


I Love to see the holy temple, and every time i do
I'm happy you can see, though single as can be
cuz missionaries all go through
serve, work hard and pray
are the things that i will do
I'll cast out my fears and to all who will hear
i'll share my love for the truth!

I love the temple so much! A couple times last year I got up real early about 5 am to be at the temple at 5:30 to do baptisms! It really made my day so much better. I can't wait for the day to get married to someone who I love in the temple and to be sealed to them for all eternity! I strive to keep myself worthy so i can enter the temple! I have three pictures of different temples in my room and I look at them everyday. That is part of my motivation to be good! I want people to experience the joy that i do when i attend the temple, so i be an example to all my friends at school! I love the temple with all my heart!

Temple Pictures!

For mutual about a month ago we went to the Boise Temple and took pictures! These are my favorite ones out of all of them! We are making quilts for Young Womens and when they are done for young women in excellence we will display them with our pictures and our testimonies next to them. Tell me which one you think I should use!

First Date

I turned 16 on October 23 and I had my first date on October 25! I went with Luke Bell, who is Levi's real good friend. Levi and I went to Callie Heuer's house where we were meeting and Cali Laney and her date Brenden Meyet met us there too. We called Luke and told him we were meeting at Callie's house but we didn't say a last name and he assumed that we meant Cali Laney. It was about 6:15 and the date was supposed to start at 6:00 so we called Luke and asked him where he was. He said he was on the hill and he would be there soon. We were really confused since there is no hill by Callie Heuer's house. He was on his way to Cali Laney's house. So we all had a good laugh and he came back this way. We felt really bad though because it take about a half hour to get to Cali Laney's house from Callie Heuer's house. While we were waiting we played apples to apples and then when Luke got there we went to the pumpkin patch. We took went on the hayride and then chose a pumpkin to carve. It took us forever to find one because it was dark outside and there was a ton of rotten pumpkins. Then we came to my house and carved them. When we got all done carving the pumpkins we played a game of poohead, loser had to eat a jar of baby food. Beef, Maccaroni, and veggies flavor! Luke was poohead but he couldn't eat the whole thing he had two bites though. I don't think I could have eaten that much! It was a real fun first date! oh and by the way...Luke leaves on his mission next week! :) haha!
