I am not a good cook. Dan is the one that makes all the meals around this place. However, I have made a goal to be better at it so I can give Dan a break every now and then. I found this tasty idea on pinterest and it turned out really well! It is super easy, which is best for me because I ruin nearly everything.

Ingredients: wonton wrappers, ground beef, taco seasoning, tomatoes, cheese, avacodos, sour cream, salsa, gorgonzola, and olives.

wonton wraps. you can get these at the grovery store next to the fresh produce

Place the wraps in a muffin tin. I doubled them up so they would be sturdy and taller.

brown your meat, add taco seasoning. Then put a scoop of the meet into each wrap.

Put them in the oven at 350* until they brown and turn crispy. It was about 15 minutes for me.

get all your toppings ready to go! (ps: I don't know why this pic is turned weird, it isn't that way on my comp)

create a mini masterpiece and enjoy!

 The 4th of July this year was so great. This year, my sister, sis-in-law, and I decided to wake up bright and early and run in the Freedom Festival race! Erin and I ran a 5K and Tam ran a 10K (she is hardcore). I had been trying to run, and failing miserably, prior to the race but I just decided I would give it a try. It was tough, but I did it! It was really fun and inspired me to do more races! We are already doing a 60 mile relay race at the end of August so I need to kick my butt into shape. Anyway, I was very proud of us girlies.

The rest of the day we spent at a really cute park up Wasatch Blvd. We ate delicous fried chicken, played bocci ball and frisbee golf, and hung out with family while my dad blared songs about America for all the park to hear.








That night we headed over to a high school in sandy that looked out over the whole city, planted our family down, and enjoyed all the fireworks going off all around us. Hearing the booms and seeing all the awesome colors explode across the sky is one of my favorite things! Especially when a girl next to us lit her sparkler and my 4 yr old niece looked at it skeptically and then said to me, "she's gonna kill us."

To say I am excited would be a major understatement! The finale to my favorite series is here! There is something bittersweet about HP coming to an end! I've grown up with Harry and I am a little sad to say goodbye. But I have a feeling this movie is going to be a TEN and I can't wait! Dan and I have left our costumes off til the last minute and now it is go time. What will we be? Bill and Fleur, Godric Gryfindor and Rowena Ravenclaw? Horcruxes? I guess we will see. Long Live Potter!
