Syrup

Recipe
1cup brown sugar
1cup white sugar
1cup water
Stir, then let boil.
We were making pancakes for lunch and Kate was set to make the syrup.  I come in the living-room from having to change because Joshua has made it his place to declare me "Miss Spit-Up-Rag", and I smell something like burning sugar, I rush into the kitchen and check the syrup, I find burning sugar, creating smoke all over the room. I move the pan off the stove and stir the sugar frantically  hoping to help stop the burning sugar. Then mom came in and moved the pan into the sink. While washing the pan Kate explained that she hadn't head mom explain about the 1cup of water part. I thought it was pretty funny that one of the most important parts was the one she forgot! I thought she'd realize that you don't boil sugar. Oh well. It was pretty funny.

Fastest Kitten Give-Away Known to Man Kind!

Sunday our kittens were old enough to go so the three put on reserve we gave away that day. But our Aunt Amy and Uncle Seth had to give the two kittens they had to give them back, because Aunt Amy had a bad allergic reaction and had to give them back.  So all we had given so away so far was Blizzard. But the real sale started on Monday we put up an add on KSL, and about thirty minutes later we had some people call and then came about thirty minutes later to pick up two boy kittens.  They chose out the two whitest Fluffball and Pipstick, and they told us about why we had Siamese looking boy cats when Twix mated with a grey male cat. Apparently the wife is in vet-tech.  Then not too long later another lady called about the kittens she came and took Rachel. And then about twelve hours after we put up the add more people came and took Dusty. Then we had to put as that the kittens were SOLD so we wouldn't get any more calls since we had already had two extras. It was the fastest I'd ever known kittens to be sold.
That is a picture we put on the add. (The kittens would not stay together for more than two seconds) It contains Dusty(The darkest of the boys), Fluffball(the shortest haired boy), Pipstick (The whitest), and Rachel(The only girl, shortest haired, and the only grey one)

Shopping for Fathers Day

So we had just gone to Wheeler Farms with my friend Bonnie and were all heading to get ice cream. Then we got to the Sugar House area and Mom remembered that we needed to get some copics for Fathers Day. So she pulled up to a parking lot and told me and Kate to run in with her debit card to go buy dad 4 copic markers. Of course we wanted to show Bonnie the art store we go to. So when me, Kate, and Bonnie walked in she was amazed at how much art supplies there was. Kate asked a worker if we could see the copics. He led us over and showed us and so we picked out four and went to the cash register. When we got there we handed them to the lady, she wrung them up and then said that it'd be $24. We handed her  mom's debit card. She turned around to her co workers and asked, "Do we ID little girls?"
"What?" said  one of the two co-workers
"Do we ID little girls using a credit card?" she asked again.
"Debit" I said.
The co-workers stared in utter silence at us until one.... Shrugged his shoulders.
"Just put it under Diane Robertson," Kate said interrupting the silence. 
"Do you have the pin?" the lady inquired.
" Yes I do," I said.
We finished paying and walked out the with confused and suspicious stares following us.
