I am celebrating an anniversary, number ten on Friday’s Funny Facebook Quotes. Ten doesn’t seem like a lot but ask any 3-year old, ten years is pretty old. Ten weeks of gathering Funny Facebook Quotes has been a lot of fun. Some weeks my Facebook friends are hi-lar-i-ous and then others not so much. What may seem funny to me may not be funny to others. Whatever the case, just sit back and relax, take a couple of minutes out of your work day and get into my world. Thanks again friends for a fun filled week of status updates and making this ten week anniversary possible.
- …Is someday going to be the Queen of the World. Just you wait and see.
Comment: May I be your jester, sire?
Comment: If you holla that from a bow of a ship- can I be the one with my arms wrapped around you!?
- …Left his Face book page up on his work computer and walked away, so I laughed at all his dorky pictures, read all his email, and now I am typing a status update about how he smells of old cheese and is wearing a dumb plaid shirt.
Comment: Hey! I like this shirt. Plus it isn’t old cheese, it is old spice.
Comment: Hmm old spice mixed with old man = old cheese?

More wildlife photos from Kreig Rasmussen taken near the Fishlake National Forest area in central Utah with a Nikon camera. This time he was able to capture a beautiful bald eagle in the snow. 
Wintertime is a great time to see wildlife like this. The animals are lower in the valleys because of the snow on the high mountain peaks.

I just love Friday’s. It means the weekend is here and Funny Facebook Quotes is on my list of things to do. Aside from doing laundry, making dinner, and cleaning bathrooms, Funny Facebook Quotes is clearly on the top of my list. All of that other stuff can wait until I read about what my Facebook friends have been doing. And I can tell that they are feeling the same way about those chores. Well sit back, relax and enjoy a few funny lines before you get started on your long agenda of daily tasks.

We are all awaiting the prospect of spring but until all this snow melts spring is still a dream. Still snow can be fun. W
e love to snowmobile and over the weekend we received over two feet of powder. With that kind of depth you have to be prepared for anything. So we drove our snowmobiles up to the mountains and did a little avalanche trainging. There have been so many reports about people being caught in avalanches and I being a cautious adventurer wanted to make sure we were going to be safe on our snowmobile rides. We had Kreig Rasmussen give us a few tips. First of all he said the best avalanche beacon is this one right here, Backcountry Access Tracker DTS Avalanche Beacon at a cost of around $250.00.

A great week behind me and another even greater weekend just around the corner. I did not forget about Friday’s Funny Facebook Quotes though. I just love the status updates about what my friend’s kids are doing. Your children can be your greatest joys and your worst nightmares. Oh, how I miss the nights when the kids would wake me up because they were sick or had a bad dream. Or the time when they made you a special dinner of instant mashed potatoes, canned peaches and hotdogs plated on your best china and crystal. All of you mothers out there enjoy these times even if you end up cleaning up the mess. Know that one day they WILL be more independent than they think they are now.
- Goals for the day: Do ALL of the laundry in the house AND put it away. Empty and load the dishwasher. Plan and cook dinner by the time my husband comes home. Don’t lose my temper with the whiney, fickle, completely irrational children. Shower.
Comment: Wake up, repeat, uh for the next decade 
) yeah it’s on my calendar too!
- Sewed a skirt for myself last night (sans pattern) and couldn’t be happier about it. Also, Jack Bauer is back and he’s freaking ROCKING MY WORLD. Thank you 24. THANK YOU.
Comment: Did you just use the work “freaking” ??? You are now a Utahn.
Response: No. If I had said “flippin” or if I’d said “He’s rocking the HECK out of my world” that would have made me a Utahn.

This picture was taken at Sundance in October 2009. I love the colors and shapes you can see in this photo. The greens of summer, the oranges of autumn and the white of snow. Loving all seasons makes this an ideal photo.

As I lay on my couch coughing my little lungs out due to a cold that just won’t go away, I am happy that I still have access to my Facebook thanks to my lovely little laptop. It sits right there on my lap keeping me company. Only the puppy is jealous. (She keeps trying to get some attention by crawling on the keyboard.) Sure I am not feeling too great but that doesn’t mean a girl can’t have fun, catch up on some status updates and giggle at the funny things my Facebook friends are saying. Thank you friends for taking care of me while I am sick.
- Is thinking about the evils of Global Warming. Just think how much more snow and ice might be on my driveway if it weren’t for Coal Power and farting farm animals.
- Dear Lord…in the past year, you have taken away my favorite actor (Patrick Swayze), my favorite actress (Brittany Murphy), my favorite musician (Michael Jackson), my favorite salesman (Billie Mays), and my favorite athlete (Chris Henry). I just wanted to let you know…my favorite president is Barrack Obama.

Every sugar cookie recipe I have read says “refrigerate for at least 4 hours.” I always hated that. When I want to make cookies, I want to do them now! I don’t have time to wait for refrigeration. The kids didn’t want to wait for those delicious cookies either. So, when I found this sugar cookie recipe I was so excited. No refrigeration! They also taste delicious.
I make these sugar cookies for every holiday. Halloween pumpkins, Thanksgiving turkeys, Easter bunnies, Back to School ABC’s and Christmas wreaths. However, my favorite sugar cookie holiday is Valentine’s Day. I love the hearts! I love the pink frosting! I love the little candy hearts with sweet sayings for decorations! And I love sharing them with friends!
Even though this recipe calls for butter or margarine, use butter. Butter makes sugar cookies taste so much better! This is a simple, fun recipe that you will really enjoy making and eating. I usually roll the cookies out a little thicker too for a softer, moister cookie. Enjoy making these cookies with your kids for Valentine’s Day.
Sugar Cookies
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoons baking powder
3 cups flour
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cream butter and sugar together, add eggs and vanilla. Add baking powder and flour one cup at a time, mixing well. The dough will be very stiff. Do not chill. Roll to 1/8 inch thick and dip cutter s in flour before each use. Bake 4 to 6 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from baking tray and cool on cooling rack. Frost and decorate. Enjoy!

Looking for Friday’s Funny Facebook Quotes? Here they are! Looking for Funny Facebook Quotes is the best part of my week for a couple of reasons. Number one, I get to read all kinds of funny stories to brighten my day. Number two, I get to spend a lot of time on Facebook and I can actually call it work. It does take work to read through status updates and put them all together to try to find the funniest of them all. The bonus is that I get to keep up with all my Facebook friends. Hope that these quotes put a smile on your face for the weekend.
- Need a good laugh???? I just pulled off the classic “fall on your butt” stunt in the parking lot in front of everyone that just got out of the movie. Haven’t moved that fast in a long time!
- You did WHAT with WHO for HOW many cookies??
- is growing tired of the boring friends in his life who don’t want to do anything outside of their own home. My boredom is starting to tear away at my sanity. I even pondered starting a cult today where I made my followers use Toddism’s as their scripture and swear revenge on anyone who cannot sing the theme song of Golden Girls or Fraggle Rock. Anything to provide some excitement to life.

Local wildlife photographer (also my brother-in-law) Kreig Rasmussen, was able to catch these awesome pictures of a 7 point bull elk measuring around 425.
Wow! Aren’t these great? They were taken only three days ago somewhere in Central Utah.
Being from the city, I am amazed with the size and beauty of elk. I love driving in the mountains just to hopefully see them.
