SUMMER!!!

Hey everybody its summer and I am having a blast!! I haven't seen everybody for-ever, but I hope you are all having fun participating in family vacations, camps, and just hanging out. I miss everybody so much! I want to hear about all of the fun you have been having when I see you. I am leaving for my first vacation on the 12th of July. My dad and I have been working on the boat to get it ready for the summer. The dumb thing is that the sales guy gave my dad the wrong size of filter so we ended up not getting as far as we had hoped. Well Hannah's brother Andrew comes home today from his mission(two year trip) jk. I am so excited for Hannah and her family! It must be so exciting! He served in Canada, but I can't seem to remember what the exact location was. Austin is leaving for his boating trip tomorrow and then on the way home his parents are dropping him off at EFY! He will be gone until the 14th of July and I am so sad! I am going to miss him so much, but I hope he has a blast! Chandler just got back from his family trip. They went to Costa Rica and he said it was way fun! He also mentioned that he had the opportunity to go on a zip-line and there were I think ten of them to go on so that took all day! Wow that sounds like a blast! Sami is having a pool party tonight that Lyssa and I are going to. I am way excited!
Oh let me tell you something so extremely nasty! So I was weeding the flower garden this morning and I saw a huge snail! It was sick and wrong and it just got worse after finding 15 more! SICK! Now I keep questioning why I ate something that gross at LaCaille! lol Well I am going to take a group of friends boating around the end of July or something like that so I hope ya'll can go! It will be a blast and hopefully everybody will know how to wake-board when the day is done! Well I hope everyone is having a fabulous summer and I will hopefully see ya soon! Love ya!

WOW! It's so time for a new post!!

This weekend has been interesting. On Friday, Elyssa, my mom, Deann, Brie, and I went dress shopping to try and find Lyssa and me a dress for the ball. We went to tons of stores and had no luck. Finally, at our last stop for the day Lyssa found a dress! It is so cute and she cant wait to wear it at her ball on the 17th.(I think thats when hers is) On Saturday, Lyssa, my mom, and I got an early start hoping to have luck with finding me a dress for LaCaille. We went from dress stores to Fashion Place mall finding nothing. Finally, we drove to South Town mall and found the perfect dress. And what do ya know it was on sale too! Speaking of LaCaille, I am soooooooooooo freakin' excited! I looked it up on the Internet and was able to see the grounds and lots of pics! I recommend you look it up and see how awesome it is!! The website has french music and everything. Everyone cant seem to stop talking about it! I think we are going to have a blast and I cant wait to see everyone dressed up in their fancy shmansy apparel!
Testing is this week and I guess a positive way of looking at it is we'll have less homework. I can't believe the school year is almost over! I am so sad to leave all my APA friends. The last day of school is going to be so hard! I hope we can all see each other during the summer and hang out during the weekends when we are in high school.

New Post!

This weekend was fun. I went with some friends and saw the movie Prom Night. It was pretty scary, but its a good movie. Of course I got scared, but Austin was there, and that helped a lot! Next Saturday is Christian's b-day party! That should a blast, and I can't wait for it! I went to Stake Conference today, and there were some pretty good talks. There was a lady who talked directly to the youth and that was a really good talk. Afterward, we had a youth session for an hour and a half, after that I had to go to a meeting for the Stake Youth Committee. I am so sick of sitting!
Since I am part of the Stake Youth Committee we get to put on an activity for the special needs mutual on Thursday. We are doing different stations that the special needs youth will participate in. The theme is "A Giant among men" which is Pres. Monson. I am at the coloring station and get to help the youth color pictures. I am really excited and it should be a great expirience!

Weekend fun!!

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't posted anything for a while. I have had other priorities that have taken over like, homework and stuff. I am so glad it is finally the weekend! I am amazed how fast this school year has gone by. I mean gosh, it's already the fourth quarter! I was hoping this year would go by slow, since it is our last year at APA and we are heading to high school, which I am so not ready for. This 9th grade year has been a blast and has gone by so quickly! I am so sad to leave my friends and go to a different school. It's going to take a long time to get used to not seeing them daily.
Well, this weekend has been full of adventures! Yesterday, the 9th grade went on a field trip to Hale-Center Theater. We were able to participate in a tour throughout the theater, and see rooms and areas such as the costume room, the dressing rooms, back stage, and much more. And even though our tour guide was a little on the loopy side, we still had fun! Following the tour we were given a sack of goodies to tide us over until the play concluded. The play we had the opportunity to see was Civil War, the musical. Let me tell you that was one interesting experience! The play was about two and a half hours long (which seemed like eternity) and it followed no story line, which made it very difficult to follow. The songs were very boring, and it seemed that they lasted for ever. I think the play was designed for elderly people because it pretty much had no action, intensity, or comedy that would cause them to have a heart attack or something. Which explains why our age group was just a tad bit out numbered, and more than half of us were snoozing. lol!!!
Later after that treacherous experience, a group of friends and I went over to Jenny's and watched a movie, that I don't even want to name because it was so evil, and scary, and freaky, and it will definitely withhold you from sleeping at night!!!! After the horror movie, we played some games, and talked until our parents arrived. One highlight of the night was the neighborhood watch investigating Jenny's neighborhood because apparently there were some ratty teenagers messin' around. jk!!! The funny thing was that every time a car came down Jenny's road, Austin and some other guys would book it down to the house and hide, not knowing if it was the watch people again.
Following all this action, I woke up this morning to find the Grudge on my e-mail from Austin. He is really going to get it because it scared me so badly that I almost peed pants!!! jk! Well I am leaving now to go shopping with my mom. Everyone have a great weekend, and I will see ya'll on Tuesday!!!

Just another weekend....

Hey everyone! Hows it goin'? My weekend has been pretty fun. Yesterday I went with Jenny and Hannah to the movies and saw Horten Hears a Who( the one by Dr. Seuss) It was a cute movie, and it had some pretty funny parts. We also went to the creamery in the District and had some yummy ice cream! Today has been pretty boring, but in a few my mom is taking lyssa and me to the mall. Tonight is the General Young Womans Broadcast. I am going to watch that with my mom and sis. It should be pretty good. I did not write the homework down for literature, so if any of you know it, please tell me.(oops) I have shin splints from soccer, which really stinks! I am not used to running a ton every day and I think I over did it. I hope my leg gets better by Monday so I can participate in soccer practice. Well I will see ya all on Monday at school and I hope you have a great weekend!!!

HAPPY EASTER!!!!

Happy Easter to everybody!! I hope you are having an awesome day! My brother Josh doesn't really believe in the Easter bunny anymore, so Elyssa decided take a picture of a stuffed animal bunny, but only its ears. She is trying to convince him that she got a real live picture of the bunny, and now they are fighting over it. Its pretty hilarious! Oh wait......its getting even better! Now they are chasing each other around the house with killer pillows in their hands! jk I will just sit back, eat some candy, and watch the show they are putting on. lol!!!
