My busy life!




Well my life has been super busy lately. I got called to be a counselor for special needs mutual. We meet every Thursday night. It is so much fun and I feel so lucky to be a part of this program. We have had some fun activities we had a talent show (which was the cutest) Harvest prom, musical night, dance night, carnival night. I love going and my my special friend is Janine and she is so funny! I love her. I have been going to hair school as you all know. I'm going to Taylor Andrews and I'm loving every minute of it. I'm there Tuesday-Friday from 12:30-6:00pm and Saturday 8:00-5:00 . So I stay pretty busy! If you are ever in that area come say hi! I have been looking into colleges and trying to decide which one I want to go. I'm thinking of UVU, U of U, SUU, BYU, USU, and Weber. I'm also applying for scholarships so that is keeping my stress levels high! This past week I have been super busy! Tuesday and Wednesday I watched Lacy and Maggie while Billy and Sandra went out of town. That was super fun! Having sleep overs on a school night. It made me really tired because lacy likes to stay up late and talk. Then I had special needs and then I was asked to give a talk this coming Sunday! So I'm a little nervous for that because I have no idea what to say! On Halloween I went to Pine View Sadies with my friend Michell Tidwell. We dressed up like Hanzel and Gretel I had a blast. I danced the night away. I also went to the 5 browns out at Tuachan. They are amazing! I wish I could play the piano that well! I also went to Pine View's play Brigadoon. It was also good. I'm way excited for my niece to arrive in December and I'm loving every moment with Nyah. She is getting so big. She calls me Dizzy and its so cute! She gives the best hugs and kisses in the whole world! I will try and be better at up dating!

Well I graduate from freshman in hair school this coming Saturday and I'm way excited. I will start cutting peoples hair on Saturday. Its gone by so fast. I got my Personal Progress medallion last Sunday and I also got a calling. I'm a Youth Counselor for the Special Needs Mutual. I have been doing that for two weeks and I love every minute of it. I have been super busy between high school, hair school, and church activities. This past weekend was also home coming for Pine View. We won our football against Desert Hills! GO PINE VIEW! It was 14-7. I got asked to the dance, first time ever getting asked. I went with Hayden Houston and it was fun. I got a really pretty dress and I felt like a million dollars! I got my hair done at Taylor Andrews and I had my friends mom do my make up so I looked pretty good. Well thats pretty much it on my life. I will try to be better at posting things, but Does anyone even read these anymore???

Summer Update






Sorry I have been a slacker on my blog. My summer has gone by very fast. I have been watching my niece Nyah and helping Justin and Emily move into their house. I worked with my mom out at her school for a little while. Then I went up to Salt Lake to my sisters graduation and then stayed there for two weeks and hung out with my grandparents and my dad. Then I came home for two weeks and went to the dentist and the eye doctor ( I got glasses). Then I left to girls camp for a week. All I did there was cook and clean up the mess and then cooked some more. Then I left right after that for efy. Efy was different this year. I learned more about the gospel and got a stronger testimony but I didn't bond as well as I did last year with my group. None the less it was still super fun. Then I came home and just chilled. Went up to the cabin and had a blast with the family for the 4th. Then on the 24th I went to the Secondhand serenade concert and that was fun! I just got back from salt lake again. We spent two days at mona lake hanging out with my dad and my sister and her boy friend and friends. The second day at the lake Weston and Jeron came out and it was fun to hang out with them. Jeron is not my little nephew any more. He is becoming a teen. He is taller than me now, and looks exactly like his dad. We had an awesome time at the lake. I start school in a week and I'm trying to get into hair school at the moment.....its a little late in the game but I'm still trying. I'm thinking about going to Taylor Andrews but I'm checking in to Heritage tomorrow. So we will see! Hopefully everything works out. I will be a senior this year and I'm way excited and nervous. Hopefully I will enjoy everyminute of my last year of high school. Well this was my summer in fast forward! ha ha I will try to update it more often.

Last part of my Missouri trip

So the funeral was really good. She wasn't LDS so it was different from what I'm use to. I cried my eyes out. Janice sang how great thou art and it was beautiful made me cry even harder. Dorthy looked good. My mom said it was the best make-up job she had ever seen. After the funeral we went to this ladys house name Beta. She was really good friends with Dorthy when they lived in Missouri. She had made us lunch. It was very interesting food. She made three different types of sandwitches. One was chopped up bologna and who knows what, another was a cream cheese with green olives, and then just a cheese sandwitch. It pretty much looked like nacho cheese on bread. I didn't like any of them and I couldn't eat them because they were really nasty. There was also a potato salad that was really gross and cole slaw which tasted weird. So I had potato chips for lunch. After that We drove out to the grave again to see it one last time. Then we drove out to Whiteman Air force base where we got to go in and look around because Janice's brother use to be in the navy or something like that. I saw a steath bomber. It was pretty cool. After that I hung out with my new friends Patrick (janice's nephew who is 19) and Richard (Janices nephew who is 29) They are brothers and really funny! We were going to go swimming but instead we just sat around and talked. Then the three of us plus my mom, Janice and her sister and brother in law went to dinner at a bbq place. It was really good! and we ate and laughed a lot! Then I went and played pin ball with patrick and richard for a minute and then I went back to the motel to go to sleep. We got up the next day checked out of our hotel and went to tour Missouri. We went to the Independece visitor center. Which was really cool. Then to Liberty Jail, that was fun to learn about but I was kind of dissapointed in the actual jail. Then we went to Far West and it was so pretty and calming there. Then we headed out to Adam-ondi-aham (sorry if I spelt that wrong) and it was so pretty there. We were walking around and it started raining and then it started pouring and then hailing and then it was hailing the size of quarters. It was so cool and it just made the place that much more spiritual and exciting. We sat there and watched it for a good half our or so then we left. Then we drove all through the night to denver colorado. I was co-pilot and had to keep the drives awake and so I pulled an all nighter. There was a ton of fog and you couldn't see anything. It was the first time I have ever seen it that thick. We stopped just outside of denver in parker where we slept for like three hours and then got up and went to breakfast with Janice's Sister Anita and her family which is Patrick and Richard and his wife Trish and their cute son Ryder. Then we headed home. It started raining and snowing and it was really pretty. This trip was really good and I made lots of new friends. My favorite friends that I made were Ronnie who was three and he lives in Georgia and has a southern drawl. My favorite thing that he said was "its Dead" and "wheres my mama" he is a pretty fun kid! Then there was Jordan and Oliva who are Ronnie's older sisters. They are way cute! They are 9 and 7. Then Patrick was my buddie and we just goofed off and made fun of each other the whole trip. I'm so glad I got to go and be apart of the funeral. Janice's family is one of the coolest familes I have ever met. They are a little wild and crazy but they are way nice!

Missouri

As you all know our very good friend passed away and so my mom and I went with our friend Janice (it's her mom that died) all the way to Missouri. We decided to drive her moms body to Missouri because it was so expensive to fly her. So we loaded the barrowed Ford Excursion and with me in the back seat and the body and my mom and Janice in the front seat. I thought it would be weird riding with a body by me, but it wasn't too bad. She was boxed up so I couldn't see her but when they took her to the motuary I was sad when I got into the car and her box wasn't there. It didn't feel right. We were in the car for two days driving to Missouri. We stopped in Colorado to spend the night at Janice's sisters house. The next morning we got up and my mom drove Janice's nephew Patricks motorcycle. Then Patrick took me for a ride and it was fun. I will have to post pictures later. Then Janice wanted him to act like he was kissing me so that I could tell my friends I got my first kiss the picture didn't really turn out the way she watned but I couldn't get any closer! We stopped in at Mack Colorado so I could get a picture there because "Mack" is the new word for kiss. Then we hit the road again for like 12 hours. So once we got here it was pretty late we just checked into our room and went to bed. Then the next morning we dropped off the body and drove around Warrensburg Missouri and Janice took us around to all her old houses and was telling us stories about her childhood and about her first kiss and love of her life. She has gone through so much and is probably the strongest person I have ever known. Then some of Janices family got into town and went over to the mortuary to see Mudd before everyone gets there. She looked way good and my mom said that was the best make up job she had ever seen. Then we all went to dinner at a pizza place then we came back to the motel and looked at some picutres and I watched a movie Today, Thursday I got up and got ready and we are getting ready for the viewing tonight. I will keep you updated on the rest of my trip/journey.

Dorthy Van Dyke

Today our very good friend Dorthy Van Dyke passed away. She had been fighting a battle with cancer. We are so blessed to have been able to be apart of her life. We loved going over to the care center to see her and to try and cheer her up. We give our deepest sympathy to her family especially Janice. She was my young womens leader for a couple years and I just adore her. She is truly a great example to me and my family. We love you guys!

The GYM

So the other day Kenyon surprised my mother and I with Golds Gym passes... I was way stoked.... I have never had a gym pass before and I have always wanted to go. Well We went last Friday for a little orientation then our first day was last Saturday. My goal is to loose some weight and tone up. I have been faithfully going everyday for 5 days...My rest day is Sunday. We decided to higher a personal trainer that me and my mom meet with once a week and Kenyon meets with one twice a month. I think this will help me keep going. So today I went to my college class went to school went to the gym and worked out for an hour and ran the mile in 10:48 which isn't too bad...or at least I don't think it is. Then I came home and we cooked and ate dinner then as a service project I went over to Janice Van Dyke's house and pulled weeds for two hours. Boy, are my muscle fatigued! This Saturday I take the ACT which I'm really nervous for.... I hope I do well! :P I guess I always have another chance to take it. I hope everything is going well for everyone! Blog ya later!!!

Spring Break...


Well my spring break has now come and past. :( and I'm back in school. For spring break my mom finally let me drive to Salt Lake by myself. I left at about noon on Friday and stayed there for five days pretty much being a couch potato. My grandma Joan and I did a little shopping... I got some capris and a yellow tank top to go under a dress that I have. So on Wednesday I left Salt Lake and came home. I got here about 4:00 in the afternoon unloaded my car and played out side in the nice weather.Thursday My mom, Kenyon, me and my friend Preston went to Zions and did a little hiking. I laughed all day long!! Preston is like my best guy friend and we have lots of inside jokes and just make fun of each other all the time. He kept us all entertained! (he is the red head in the picture and thats his cousin next to him) Saturday I didn't really do anything all day...but later Devin invited me to go with him to a baseball game so I went. That was pretty fun! I hadn't been to a baseball game in a long time. Then on Sunday I went to church, we made grandma dinner and had trevor, tyson, and Jeff over. That was fun! Then we had a party at my house well kinda... John and his family and Thayne and his family came over and we had Key lime Cheese cake and watched my preference video...which was kinda embaressing for me...but I made it through! Then on Monday I went to the wellness fair with my mom and I'm perfectly healthy except for my eye sight. I just discovered that I'm near sighted and probably need to get glasses or contacts. Then after the wellness fair Devin and I had a play date. We went to the 2450 park and played frisbee golf and lasso golf. It was a lot of fun. Devin won frisbee golf it was 73-77 which isn't bad considering I'm not so good at that game! Then I won lasso golf! It totally made my day! Then I went back to school on Tuesday! Tuesday was a chaotic day. I went to college and then to one period at the high school and my mom called and said that our friend who has cancer was just taken into the E.R. So I left school a mess, went to the hospital and got to see her. It was really scary I didn't think that she was going to make it. She was emitted to the hospital and as the day went on she looked better and better. I left the hospital and went to dinner with Justin and Emily and looked at houses with them and I broke my phone! :( it just wasn't my day! Now life is going a little smoother and I'm feelin good! :D

Just a little update on me.

Well, I haven't blogged for a while so I thought I would write a line or two. We had a surprise birthday party for my mom on her birthday and that was fun. She was totally shocked and didn't know anything about which made it even better. She just started crying when she walked in. She officially is the BIG 50. As for me I have just been going to school trying to make it until summer. I'm taking a college biology class which isn't very fun and if any one has some good studying tips will you please send them my way!!! I have been to a couple school dances which were way fun!!! I had a blast! Well in two days it will be spring break and I'm way excited!!! My mom is letting me drive to salt lake all by myself for the very first time. She told me, I hope you know its really hard for me to let you do this... (maybe its because I'm the baby!) So I will be in Salt Lake spending time with my sister and my Grandma. Then I'm coming home in the middle of the break to help my mom out and to play some frisbee golf with friends. So I'm way excited! On a not so happy side, I was getting out of my car the other day just getting home from school and I stepped out and it felt like my knee cap or patella (which ever you prefer) was going to pop out. So I just stopped what I was doing and luckily it didn't. But now my knee is all swollen and isn't very happy :( Hopefully it just stays in place because both of my knee caps have already popped out and the doctor said if it happened again I would probably have to have surgery and I don't want that ha ha. Hopefully everything is going well with all of you! Talk to you later! :D

Preference 09




















So this past weekend was preference (school dance) I took a guy named Devin Nielson. He is such a nice guy! He is a little bit older than me, he has already graduated he is 19 but he was a good sport. I asked him by having him go to the fire station where my brother was working at and I had a cute poem that went with each thing he had to do. He had to put on the turn outs get the hose and run with it carry a 150lbs dummy find things on the engine and then pose with this ugly cat that sings. Then my mom told my brother that I wanted him to pose with his shirt off but with the fire gear still on (but it really was her idea) He was such a good sport...as much as he didn't want to do it, he did it anyways. Well unfortunatly he got me back. He is a gymnastics coach so I had to go to bare foot gymnastics and do cart wheels (which I have never been able to do) then leap, spin, do some summer saults all while my mom, brother, sister-in-law, niece, his parents, the owners and a class are watching me....a little embaressing but I got through it! So our day date started at 8:30 in the morning. We came to my house and ate breakfast which was pancakes, eggs, bacon, and juice. Then from there we went out to my moms school and got DIRTY!!! We had a slip and slide spaghetti, twister with ketchup, mustard, jell-o and then a mixture of three things. We had six bowls of pudding with a candy bar in the bottom that you had to dig in with only your face. Balloons filled with shaving cream and we had to hug each other to pop them. Then we had water balloons filled with ketchup/water, mustard/water, chocolate/water and then we just had a dodge ball fight with those. Then after we got all that cleaned up we went to jimmy johns for lunch then Devin and I came to my house and cleaned up everything and then I took him home and we went and got ready for the dance. Then I picked him up and my friend and her date and then came back to my house for dinner. My brother Weston was nice enough and cooked us dinner! It was delicious. Then we all got together for a group shot and we sizzled like bacon and did the salt shaker then we headed to the dance and after the dance came back to my house had dessert and played quelf it was a great day and I had a blast!
