Summer Cedar Adventures

Day 50: Sticky Note Attack!

2011-07-29T23:10:00.001-06:00

For today's adventure we put sticky notes all over one of our friends car! To make it even cooler we dressed up as superhero's!

Day 49: Petting Zoo!

2011-07-28T16:19:00.001-06:00

On our way home, we decided to stop for gas in Scipio. While we were there, we discovered the coolest thing ever. They have a petting zoo!!! It was so awesome to see all of the animals they had there. They were so adorable. If you're ever passing Scipio, stop by at the Flying J and go to the petting zoo.

Day 48: Nerd Night!

2011-07-27T20:10:00.002-06:00

So for an adventure Elisa was given the opportunity to do something more nerdy than anything she's ever done in her life: Play D and D! So of course she did it. Aaaand of course she had to dress for the occasion! Go nerds everywhere!!

Day 47: There's a lot of dead people today!

2011-07-26T23:47:00.001-06:00

Today we went to a park and traced ourselves all around on the sidewalk. We started with the classic dead people poses, but then decided to switch things up and do some crazy ones as well. We hope people get a kick out of it.

Day 46: A day in the life of Melvin!

2011-07-25T20:30:00.069-06:00

Day 45: Superheroes!

2011-07-24T22:00:00.001-06:00

For today's adventure we dressed up as superheroes with all of our friends and walked around Main Street liked this. It was funny to see people's reactions to us. Random people would yell out and ask us where we were going or why we were dressed like this. We stopped at a gas station, and these people pulled up and would not get out of the car. They sat there for a while staring at all of us and then just drove away. It was really fun hanging out with all of our friends dressed up crazy. You should all try it and see the reactions you get from people.

Day 44: Cave dancing or not...

2011-07-23T23:58:00.001-06:00

Today we attempted to go dancing in a cave. We went expoloring at night to find the cave and we realized that we had to climb up to get to it. It was a steep climb and we didn't want to fall into the river because we wouldn't be able to see. So we will try to again, but earlier in the day next time. So instead we played with glowsticks while hiking and we watched some fireworks while up on the hill.

Day 43: This one's for you Austin!

2011-07-22T23:29:00.001-06:00

For today's adventure we decorated our friend Austin's car. We wrote 'Just Married' on it and wrote cutesy stuff about him being in love.

Day 42: climb through

2011-07-21T23:14:00.002-06:00

So after planning our Zombie escape plan we got inspired to try other survival techniques. We decided that breaking into windows would be a very good thing to know how to do. So, we broke into Elisa's house. It was rather exhilarating actually. Now, if Elisa ever forgets her key, she can get inside her house! Hooray! ...Can Zombies break into windows???

Day 41: Zombie Attack!

2011-07-20T12:46:00.001-06:00

Today we decided to come up with an escape plan for when Zombies attack. Our plan of strategy is to climb trees. It's probably the safest place to be when Zombies do attack. We are getting pretty good. Marivel got so good, she can now climb out of reach of a 6 foot zombie in under 4 seconds on most trees. Beat that! ... or you might get eaten.

Day 40: Bubbles!

2011-07-19T22:50:00.000-06:00

For today's adventure we went outside and blew bubbles! It was really relaxing and fun! It was like being a little kid again. =)

Day 39: Breakfast Picnic!

2011-07-18T23:59:00.002-06:00

It was really nice outside this morning so we decided to have a picnic outside on the lawn! It was great! It was nice and cool- perfect for a picnic. It was a little strange eating cereal out on the lawn, but it was really fun! Do it! Just be careful not to spill orange juice or milk on your bed spread...

Day 38: Giant dandelions!

2011-07-17T22:30:00.002-06:00

For today's adventure we went around finding really big dandelions! We made a ton of wishes while blowing all of them.

Day 37: Sushi Time!

2011-07-16T14:00:00.000-06:00

Rolling it up

Flipping it over to put the stuff inside

So we've been craving sushi lately and decided that going out to get sushi every time we crave it is going to get really expensive. So we decided to make some of our own! We made California Rolls our first time. It wasn't as hard as we thought it would be. It tasted really good too! We can't wait to make it again!

Finished Product

Day 36: Egg Throwing!

2011-07-15T17:08:00.002-06:00

Egg guts!

For today's adventure we had an egg throwing contest! We got on top of the roof and tried to see who could throw the egg the farthest. Marivel won of course, Elisa's not very good at throwing... It was a fun contest. One of the neighbors drove past us when we were standing on the roof. He instantly sped up when he saw eggs in our hands. haha.

Day 35: Slay the Unicorns!!!

2011-07-14T22:58:00.002-06:00

Today we got our Questing Unicorn License's. We are now allowed to hunt Unicorns whenever we want except for on Valentine's Day. We can hunt them on "Planet Earth and elsewhere, within specifications." Watch out Unicorns, here we come!

Day 34: What are we watching...?

2011-07-13T23:50:00.001-06:00

For today's adventure we went to the movie theater and had the box office girl pick a movie for us to watch, she picked the movie 17 Miracles. We had never heard of it and all she told us about it was that it was good and she liked it. We were a little late and missed some of the intro, so when we walked in it was the middle of a scene and the people on the screen were wearing old timey clothes. Instantly we were a little nervous about what we were about to watch. Eventually we found out that it was a religious movie. It was only about an hour long, and wasn't worth $8 per ticket. It was an interesting and informative movie though.

Day 33: music moves me

2011-07-12T23:58:00.005-06:00

So have you heard that song by T-pain and Chris Brown called Best Love Song? Well Elisa isn't really into the pop music of today but Marivel is. So anyways Marivel had the song playing in her car and Elisa listened to it. And well, there's this part near the end where there's this epic key change that sounds like it's not going to work but then it totally does! So, I'm writing a letter to them to thank them for the key change. It is absolutely tantalizing.

Day 32: mini food over a mini fire

2011-07-11T23:56:00.000-06:00

For today's adventure we roasted mini marshmallows and Starburst over the stove! It was a blast! mini marshmallows cook super fast over the stove, so why waste time building a fire? Just use your stove!

Day 31: Ode to Pinecone

2011-07-10T22:25:00.001-06:00

Ode to Pinecone

You were very brown

You were loved by all till death

We built you this shrine.

our pinecone is that little brown thing next to the shrine.

Day 30: Mattress sliding!

2011-07-09T23:30:00.004-06:00

Ok this has got to be one of the funnest things to do if you're living in a dorm or some other college housing with crappy mattresses. Just watch and be jealous, or do it yourself! You won't regret it if you do! :)

Day 29: Ice creaaaam!

2011-07-08T14:39:00.001-06:00

Today we discovered a place called Bulloch Drug. It's this really cute drug store on Main Street! It's kind of like a pharmacy but the cool thing about it is that they have a little cafe area with a soda fountain, ice cream, candy, local homemade trinkets and things, as well as a cute bar you can sit at! Their ice cream is really good: we definitely recommend it! Exploring Cedar City brings fun and tasty results. :)

Day 28: A little spring cleaning... kind of

2011-07-07T23:35:00.002-06:00

For today's activity we pretended like we had OCD and re-arranged Marivel's fridge by alphabetical order! Well that was fun. ha. We started with Butter and ended with Yogurt. It was an extreeeeemely fun adventure. by the way knock knock. Who's there? Orange. Orange who? Orange juice came between Milk and Rice! Ok this joke is awful. ta-ta for now.

Day 27: Rubber Duckies!

2011-07-06T23:39:00.001-06:00

For today's activity we did something we aren't sure is legal. And it might get us kicked out of school. Aaand it might get Elisa fired from her job. But it was cute!!! We put forty rubber ducks in the fountain in front of the auditorium! Cute right? We've grown attached to them though, so if any survive the night we'll probably go and fish them out. hahaha.

Day 26: Cannonball!

2011-07-05T23:24:00.004-06:00

Today's adventure was suggested by our friend Rachelle. She told us to jump into the pool with our clothes on. So we did! It wasn't as bad as we thought it would be and the water was pretty warm. The bad part was walking around in wet clothes!
