Merry Christmas

ok sorry I know I haven't posted anything in a while so here is an update I am so excited for Christmas because I get to talk to my brother!  The only downside is EVERYONE in my dad's side of the family is going to be at my house so we get like 2 minutes a person! I am not even kidding my nana had like 3 and my cousin to get her off the phone picked up anather phone and started talking and told her "we each only get 2 minutes you've had like 3 my turn"! and totally started a new conversation with Chad. Today was the first day of my winter vacation and I am very excited to have NO SCHOOL for 2 weeks! Ok now I have to talk about yw (sorry I know I need a hobby) it was the bomb those stories were cool and I learned about 50 new words just from listening to sister berkabile's book! you guys rock! let me know where to get those books my mommy collects Christmas books! later guys!

MERRY CHRISTMAS (IN TWO DAYS!)

Breakfast with Santa/ward xmas party

in my church my dad is the activity supervisor person thing so we plan and put on ward parties. Well my daddy had the ward party and the breakfast with santa (for primary-little kids) on the same day. Me, Jordan, Courtney, and my cousins Tyler and Steven served about 69-100 people. we started cooking the bacon at like 9 last night and didn't leave until 1 am! we woke up and then went to set up for the kid party at 7. Then we cooked pancakes, eggs, and 35 pounds of bacon!! so we are a little tired. Then we served all the little ones and big ones too, breakfast! It was an interesting afterwards setting up for the ward party after but everything was a huge success!

I got gold fishies!

Today was awesome I bought goldfishies and a tank for 11 bucks! my mom doesn't know yet and  they are pretty small i am going to enlarge them by feeding them these huge flakes. walmart fishies are the best I got 20 for 2 bucks!

Today was a sad day that started out great! I woke up at 7 to go play softball on a saturday but hey I LOVE the game it's my all time by far favorite sport although I could probably beat you at soccer (kidding) if I had the right shoes on but anyway so I played at 9 but it takes forever to get there and I have to warm up we played the first game and lost but we did awesome for only having 8 players we had all the infielders but only two outfielders me and my friend Ashton (by the way awesome catch today) then we played  against a team we had played earlier and they cheated and tried everything in the book to get revenge for us beating them the night before plus it didn't help that the umpires were calling strikes at my chest which is WAY out of the strike zone anyway I don't want to be negative (sorry) My coach isn't coaching and nobody knows what they are gonna do next season I don't want to stop progressing though so when I'm old enough I'm going to play high school ball and shoot for a scholorship so I practice and take it one day at a time at progress my future is too important for me to mess up! thanks for reading this it's probably killing you that your reading what i'm typing this very second but ow well later!

xmas trees put up before the turkey??

Anyone who knows my dad knows he is obsessed with Christmas trees. He LOVES them! So of course we have to be the fist ones in the world to put up Christmas  treeS yes TREES  plural my dad loves the trees so much he has to put one in every room of the house! yes that includes the laundry and bathrooms, kitchen, closets, etc. So right now we have 8 up only 3 more or something like that so any way the middle tree is the kids tree and to the right is my baby ornament and the left is the tree in my room I will take more pictures of the trees and post them later!

My baby sister is finally 9!

My favorite little sister baily turned nine today! She was so excited about her birthday and how she asked for a new bike! Well my dad surprised her and came home early so that we could go bike shopping boo is so happy it's fun to see her smile that reaches from cheek to cheek! happy birthday boo! i will post boo on her bike tomorrow sorry my camera died!

Softball is the greatest sport ever!

Softball is by far my favorite sport! I love it! so I am going to list what I like about it

1 I never get bored during a game

2 My coaches are awesome!

3 I can get a decent hit if i pivot my foot

4 I can catch about three fourths of the time

5 I have alot of friends on the team

6 I'm not the only Lefty!

twin party!

My friends Kayla and Madison are so crazy but their my buddies what can I say!

this was a while ago but I had to make sure it was ok to put their pictures thanks twins!

I'm bored my parents are gone I am being watched?

My Nana is "babysitting" us until friday when my parents get back from their "getaway" but if you ask me it's a vacation without me! I was stuck in school today and figured out how to listen to music in the computer lab without getting my phone out...... ok so step one I is to go onto sister berkabile's blog then click on kir's music she has some good stuff! I listened to her playlist like 8 times instead of looking up my project I have to do and if any of my teacher are reading this sorry! ok I know I always talk about yw but it's the only thing that happened to me this week except play volleyball and we won both games! So anyway sister reil planned the activity tonight and it was so much fun! I thought it would be embarassing because everyone I go to church with was their but it was so funny to here what people have done, I learned something about sister Berkabilly's dream she had one night that was interesting! then lindsey made a ladybug blind, jessica being stung by a jelleyfish then a random guy offers to pee on it, beckey dying her hair orange on accident and then there is me who told everyone in church when I was 3 that I was at my mom and dad's wedding! Then I learned stuff about the new leaders it was sooooooo much fun! you guys are so creative I love you guys!!! :D

Can't sleep

Does anyone else have the problem of not being able to sleep? well I can't sleep if anyone has any advice I would appreciate it ! =] 

silly girls

Me and Brooklyn being silly!

Strong Sunday

Today most of my leaders were released and it is always sad to see a leader go I have learned so much from all of them in so many ways the bright side is the canadian ((ister Reil)  got to come back and be where she belongs in yw forever! We had a testimony meeting today instead of normal classes and I loved hearing how we both have grown and for the new leaders will grow. At the end of it all it was weird they gave us a gift when we should be the ones who are thankful for everything they have shared from personal expiriences  to having us share our own and think of what we could do better next time it happens. I love all my new leaders already even though I don't know much about them yet but I definately will make myself known. For all the old and new leaders reading this thanks for all of the hard work that you do to make yw the best program ever I love you guys

My best birthday ever!

this is courtney!

Wow last night was one of the best nights ever! ok so I had softball practice same as always but, when I got home from it with my dad, One of my best friends  courtney and her brave mom Lynett (sorry if it's spelled wrong) were sitting on my couch, my dad told me to go upstairs shower and "Look presentable" so one short shower and hair blower drying later..... I come down the stairs and am looking really cute (for once) hair shiny the works when they tell me we can do whatever I want tonight, so of course courtney and I both want to ride this insane roller coaster called new york new york on the strip and so one extremely long car ride later we are at  the hotel and we rush up to the line but find out that lynett can't bring her purse on the ride so we had to get change so (sorry to get into so much detail but for a 13 year old it seemed like forever!) then we all stand in line and we were seated on the very back of the ride so courtney was screaming her head off when we had to go up the huge hill and so of course I was laughing uncontrollively and she got really scared on the loopty loop, the twist, and the hills it was awesome! then we went on it again this time we got to sit on the very front! so then at about 2 in the morning we went to denny's and I thought lynett was having a ball being stuck with two girls on the strip's denny's it rocked then lynett started maing a bunch of funny jokes so we looked like total freaks next to the table with the gay guys it Rocked! it was the best night ever courtney and lynett you guys rock!

Patriotical Brookie!

this is one of my little buddies Brookie we hang out all the time she is sooo cute!

Ok so today was less depressing than expected usually I'm spunky the day before my birthday especially when I'm turning 13 tomorrow! Ok so I'm really excited that I can FINALLY! start counting down when my big brother comes home, (from a mission) if your mormon you know what I'm talking about if your not you should google it. It's really weird that the day before my birthday last year I was all depressed and sad :( the day before and on my birthday but the worst part was when my Nana was totally nice to me and so was Baily my little sister who I argue with alot and then I was all depressed that I was mean to them and they just ignored it they are some strong women/girls (sorry boo your not a women yet!) Ok now that we're done with last year's  crisis let's meet this year's Ok now my Aunt fae (idk how to spell her name) died this week and it's really sad but I am ok because I know I will see her again but some of my family members like my uncle don't and I think that is sadder than death itself.... ok I don't want to rant anymore about tragedies because they don't happen much in my life but  we do have trials i guess now i can focus on my birthday now that's all off my chest thanks!

Finally I created a blog!

Ok so finally I got around to creating a blog one word to describe me is LAZY and for everyone from yw "Mother Hen" (inside Joke). I'm sweet, caring, lazy, friendly, loud mouthed, a master chef (of sandwhiches) and am a traveling queen! My favorite little buddies that I hang out with are Brooklyn, Brayden, Blake, Kalani, Leilani (Judy if your reading this don't kill me for messing up your kids names). My brother Chad has been gone for 1 whole year today and I'm less depressed than I thought I would be with much thanks to one of my best friends Courtney! (you Rock!)
