Honest Scrap...



Well I got his Honest Scrap from my favorite cousin named Laura Jane @ http://patchofheaven2boyz.blogspot.com/. I guess I'm suppose to tell you ten honest things about me.... so Here we go!

#1 I am so very very dang excited to be getting married in:
one month & 16 days!
#2 I swallowed a toothpick when I was younger and have a wonderful 5 inch scar on my stomach from it. Don't swallow toothpicks... they're bad for you!

#3 I secretly want to have my own craft/scrapbook store. So maybe that's not too of a secret but it would be so fun to have my own place, and to be able to craft as much as I want to!
I LOVE crafting!

#4 I HATE needles! and human blood! I'm actually getting a little better but when I watch Grey's Anatomy (which I'm obsessed with...) I get wheezy when they show the operating stuff... I have to cover my eyes! I had to get my blood drown today actually and I felt light headed and I couldn't watch them put the needle in.

#5 I'm kinda nervous to go through the temple but mostly so excited! Its going to be such a great blessing to receive my endowments and also be one step closer to being sealed for time and all eternity with Coder in the temple. I just got a burst of excitement!

#6 I love to ride horses and work cows! I'm a cowgirl through and through and trailing cows in the mtns is seriously one of my favorite things!

#7 I'm 22 years old and have never flown on an airplane or seen the ocean.... I know I had a rough childhood! ha ha I think for Cody and I's honeymoon we're flying, to where ever we're going so that will be so much fun!
#8 I secretly want to learn how to yodel.... I'm not sure if its a learned talent of if you're born with this marvelous talent....? I just think It'd be really cool! I'm a dork, I know!
#9 I really really really someday want to own my own cabin and live in it all summer! My uncle Ray lives up in Moon Lake all summer long and I wish I could just leave the world for a little while and live in my own paradise.
#10 AND Did I say how excited I am to soon be Mrs. Cody Pehrson! I'm the luckiest girl in the world! I haven't been feeling very well the last couple weeks (the docs have no idea why I'm sick, they think it could be ulcers, an inflamed spleen or a disease gall blatter... tests to follow) and Cod-man has been so concerned, loving and cattering to my every needs. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be with him for eternity! Doesn't Kandice Lyn Pehrson sound so good!?!
Alright, Alright enough with the boring stuff..... Now I TAG: Besty, Brooke, Lea, Tara, Mal, Merralee, Yawna, Jenny Cooper! Now get going!

Great Weekend

Well this weekend Cody and I went and got our engagement pictures taken in Mapleton, UT. I talked my Aunt Ellen's step daughter Amanda Alexander into covering our wedding pics and engagement pic. She was so great! I had so much fun, and Cody said he didn't hate it. We seriously were there for less than 45 minutes, so hopefully we don't look like dorks. My Aunt Ellen came and was our 'flasher'! I think probably Cody's face was pretty red in a few pics from the funny comments Ellen and Amanda. We had fun!

Stay tuned for the results of our photo shoot! Here is Amanda's website, http://amandaalexanderphotography.com check it out! She's so fun and nice to work with! We're very lucky to have her in our family! Thanks Amanda!

PS We only have 54 more days! I'm too excited! Also Coder booked our honeymoon, he won't tell me exactly where we're going but I do know, we're going for 15 days! I'm so excited! Coder is so great! Love him!

That's about all for now!

Ice Fishing 2009

The last weekend in February Cody and I went icefishing with his whole family (minus the little brother Kjell who is on a mission in Iwoa) to Fish Lake. We had a blast! It was so fun, except for the peeling noses and blistered lips I got. We were suppose to get engagement pictures that next weekend and well we couldn't because of the uglyness of my lips and his peeling nose. But it was pretty worth it!









As you can see, we didn't catch too many
"BIG FISH", but we did catch a ton of little ones. Cody, Ashley (soon to be sister-inlaw) and I started a competition to see who could catch the most fish and well Cody at the end had the most, but he started the game with five and Ash and I didn't have any.
The ending score was:
Cody-16
Ashley-12
Kandice-14
It was so very fun, as soon as you'd put your hook in, you'd be reeling another little whopper in.



This is Cody's mom, Carrie! She is so fun. She's such a good grandma, she makes all her grandkids feel so special and important. This is my favorite picture!






























These are Cody's nephews and Neice. They are so cute and so funny! Keegan tells the best fish stories! "I catch a fish this BIG, and Uncle Tody, you catch one this BIG!" I think he's learned these fish stories from he's Uncle Cody, or maybe his Grandpa Pehrson!



All in all, we had a great day. Just playing around on the ice and getting sunburnt! We'll be prepared next year with hats, sunblock, and more worms!
