Storm/Santa Hat's

So I’m just getting around to catching up from the weekend. Last Thursday there was the big crazy wind storm through Farmington that caused a big mess, lost power and such. Luckily our home only lost a few shingles, nothing too bad. There were quite a few houses around the neighborhood that were a lot more damaged. Luckily no one got hurt too bad though. The only major thing was being without power for majority of Thursday. (There were others around Davis County who had to go a few days). Since it was freezing we decided to climb into our trailer and turn the heat on in there. It worked out good because the trailer was parked next to our house and wasn’t getting hit by the wind. We were able to watch movies, eat some dinner, stay warm and do homework in the trailer until the power came back on probably around 10pm.
Then Friday Jace and I both worked then came home. I felt sick Friday so crashed on the couch early. Jace just hung out with me on his laptop bored to death I’m sure. Then Saturday we did some clean up from the storm and Jace worked on fixing the RZR in the garage while I went up to my mother in law’s house for her new step-daughter’s bridal shower.  It was fun and I’m excited for Jake and Carly who get married next Tuesday. Saturday night I had agreed to go see the 3 Musketeers that was at the dollar theater with Jace. He had been looking forward to seeing it for a while but it was awful. I would defiantly not recommend seeing it.
Sunday we had church and just relaxed. I worked on some homework (finals are next week-cant wait for the Christmas break!) Monday work again then Monday night there was a neighborhood ugly sweater/cookie exchange. I made these quick and cute “Santa Hat Brownies”. I got the idea on Pintrest at this blog. I just used store bought brownies (I didn’t have time to make homemade), put a little icing (again store bought) to hold the strawberries on and a little on top. I knew I didn’t have the skills to ice all the way around the strawberry and have it turn out nice so I left that part off. They still turned out pretty cute and they actually won the “Best in Show” award at the party ha. Thank you pintrest!
Not as cute as the ones from the other blog but they worked and were quick to put together! The middle ones were cookie and cream store bought brownies
