All I want for Christmas (:

Yes.

Ok after watching Marley and Me last night, I want a dog like this real bad. Don't get me wrong Rajah is great..but who wouldn't love this? I mean, Honestly.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Ann! I hope you are having a BLAST in Cali. I'm sure you are. :)

She's witty, driven, comical, fashionable, loyal, happy, frank, laid back, easy to talk to, & intelligent. She's my first choice. :) What would I ever do without her?

PROM.

Prom=So much FUN. I went with my way good friend Peter. My best friend Sophie and I got the same dress. Had no idea until we started explaining it to each other. Luckily they were different colors. The pictures pretty much explain themselves.. :)

YCC conference!

Utah State, Catered food, nice hotel, fun friends, motivational speakers, dances, laughing, partying, and races are just some of the things the conference had to offer us! :) I had such a blast. Too bad we all got influenza B when we came home. :(

Tonight.

I hate Saturday nights when your parents leave and make you stay home to babysit their children. When you get 4 hours of sleep the night before because you were partying with friends until early morning. When a way cute boy calls you and invites you to go to a college basketball game with him & you have to say no, because you are tending obnoxious kids. When you really really want to hang out with that boy who called but instead are home cooking dinner for your little brother and sister and their 2 friends. When for entertainment you decide to practice piano. When you can't even take a nap because your mom is making you sew a quilt you promised her you would have completed 2 weeks ago. (Oops) When you are updating your blog instead of hanging with friends. When you are passed the point of torture. Wow. That sounds just like Tonight. Haha. What a bummer. :)

Dreaming of Summer.

I'm missing the sunsets and the heat. The sound of the lawnmower and running through sprinklers. I miss sleeping all day staying up all night. I'm ready for Watermelon and the smell of sunscreen on my skin. Staying in my swimsuit all day and eating slushies. Driving with the windows down and having brown skin. Basically, I miss all summer♥ has to offer. Winter, please say you are done.

Meh.

Can't wait for our "vacation home" to be done! hehe

Visiting Grandma Jones.

Playing basketball. :)
It's going to be a long year and a half. ♥

Mmm...
Eww. lol

It's kinda nice to have some down time to do the things I usually don't have time for. Well here are some random pics. Sorry if it's boring!

Ok now that's out of the way there was something else I wanted to write about on here. Last Tuesday I got to be part of this things called "Challenge Day." My counselor asked me to do it and I was like "What the heck, sure." I wasn't that exited. I had a bad attitude about going.. but I thought it was worth missing school. Well turned out to be one of the Best Days of My Life. No Joke. I heard that a lot of people cried at this thing and I was thinking "No Way will I ever cry." Well let me tell you something. I Cried. And Balled. And cried some more. It was the most amazing thing. It was all about coming together with those around you and opening up and be your true self. I know it may sound Gay..( I thought so too) But it truly inspired me. I would love to go on and on about it for hours but you may fall asleep. So either watch Oprah this Monday or look at my Jodi's blog to learn about details. :)

Random..

Let me show you some of the things I like. :)
