What are YOU thankful for?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tuwid8_O8dk

After I watched this video, I really did start to think about all the things I'm thankful for. Even though some of the things include pie, boys, and soft pillows, I am still thankful for SO many things. I'm especially thankful for the gosple and the affect it's had on my life. I have no clue where I would be without it.

I'm grateful for my parents, and all they do for me! I'm grateful that they got married in the temple, so that my family can all live together forever!

I'm grateful for Young Womens and Personal Progress. Doing Personal Progress just makes life better! I don't feel like its a chore, or some extra homework. It helps me with everyday problems and questions. I'm thankful for everyone in my ward that's in Young Womens. I love you guys!! :) You are some of the best friends I'll ever had! (That includes leaders!)

Thank you to all my friends! EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU! You all have had an affect on my life, and because of that, I'm a better person today than I was yesterday.

I love you ALL and have a Happy Thanksgiving! :)

No School Today...

So there was no school today. I really didn't want to stay home alone, so I went to the mall with Sandra. We got stopped by the same type of booths and they tried to sell us $60 nail things. It was so annoying! The first lady that stopped us started to buff Sandra's nails. After she was done she said, "So did you like that or love that?" Sandra said she liked it, and then the lady asked, "So how will you pay?" We were so confused, and then she asked us how we would pay IF we were to buy the $60 package of stuff. We said cash and she asked us how much we had with us. Sandra said $2 and I said the same. Then the salesperson said, "No, your lying." Totally rude! We walked for a little while longer and got stopped by another guy for the same product!! He was nicer, and he lowered the price of a smaller $30 package to $14, but was still mad when I said, "Not today". WEIRD!!!

I'm BBBBBBBBBAAAAACCCCCCCKKKKK!!!!

Sorry, no good excuses for not updating in like 6 months. I'm just lazy, I guess. I'll work on getting it updated. Maybe that will be one of my New Year resolutions......

Anyways, life has been good. Since last I've written: I've been to Philadelphia, NYC, and Washington DC. I've gone to 8th grade. My grandpa has died. And I still have a GPA of 4.0. Wow. Interesting huh? I PROMISE, I'll do better. :)

My dog ate my blog!!

That's my excuse for not updating in a while. ;) Well, there's nothing much to update on. Miriam and I went to the Temple last week, and that was fun. I passed the term with all A's. I went and saw Miss Mac's play (which was AMAZING!). I just got back from the Draper Temple Detication, which was so cool to see! There. Now your updated with me. Here are some random pictures I found to make it... let's say "interesting"... uh hu?

I'm at School!

Guess what?? I'm at school! Right now! Ya, I know! And yes, I am allowed to be on this. I just tested my rocket in CTE Tech and got an A!!! Happy day! When I get home, I'll put pictures on here. I haven't written in a while... Sorry! But it's so cool that I'm at school and on the computer!! :)

Valentine's Day

It was so much fun!! On Friday we had the dance/party at school, and its been the best one yet! Me and all my friends got totally hyper (in a good way) and it was way fun!! Another coolio or kewl (those are Mary's words) that happened was I got 14 cookies!! Let me explain....
Our school, as a fund raiser, sells cookies for $1. They are Granny B.'s and TOTALLY unhealthy, but that's what makes them good, right? ;) Well, I got 14!!! I feel so loved! :)
Later that day I went to my friend Clara's birthday party, and that was WAY fun!! We told scary stories and Colin scared me half to death! (ask me about that later... I'm to tired to type it now...)
On Saturday (Valentine's Day) my dad got me and my sister balloons and my mom got one for my brother. Its a family tradition! Then my dad, my brother, my sister, and I all made a Candy Gram for my mom and she loved it!! It was way cool! Then we delivered valentines to all the single people in our ward and gave them flower pins to put on their shirts. But the sad thing was we had to walk in freezing cold SNOW!!! Anyways...
Then Mary and I went shopping and that was fun. We took my sister with us, and my brother went to a friends house. That gave my mom and dad a little bit of time together, which they needed.
When we came home our family watched a movie called Fireproof, which a recommend to all married or engaged couples. Or if you just want to watch it, it's an amazing movie.
All in all, I had a GREAT Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Whoo! I'm SSSSOOO excited for Valentine's Day! It's probley my favorite holiday other than St. Pat's day. I don't really know why...... Maybe it's because I love hearts...... or because I'm so glad my parents fell in love. If they hadn't, I wouldn't be here! (Please, don't cry! I'm trying not to myself.) :) Well, we have our Valentine's Day dance/party tomorrow at school and I'm WAY excited!!

You know what sucks??

I'M SO MAD!!!! M-A-D!!!! And I bet you want to know why. Well.... THERE IS NO SOCCER IN THE SPRING FOR 7-9TH GRADERS!!!! ISN'T THAT TERRIBLE!!!??? *sigh*... I'm sorry. It's just that this is really, really dumb. And it's just for 7-9th graders!! Every other grade can play in the spring!! *sigh*... What is this world coming to??!! It's just so horrible..... terrible.... It's just so horribly terrible!!

The Music Man

I forgot to put this picture on the other one, so here it is!

The Music Man

Guess what?? I'm in the Music Man! And I'm a Pick-A-Little Lady! (I don't have time to explain what that is.) I'm SSSSOOO happy and excited!!! I know it might seem like a really boring part, but it's really a TON of fun!! I am way excited! I'm also in the chorus, so that means I get to sing the songs Iowa Stubborn, Trouble, Wells Fargo Wagon, and 76 Trombones. And of course, Pick-A-Little, Talk-a-little. All of you that can come see it, PLEASE DO! It's April 9-11, at 7pm at Centennial Middle School. We don't have prices yet, but its really cheap! Its around $3 for adults and $2 for kids. It's gonna be great!

Christmas and New Year's

Well I got a new book, some earrings, a necklace, an iHome, and some chocolate. Not a lot, but I didn't want a lot either. It was a great Christmas though!
New Year's Eve was AWESOME! I went to the Stake Center and they had a huge party! There was a dance at 10-Midnight, but only those 14 and older could go! (sigh) Darn! The party was a lot of fun though! We played TONS of games and watched a slideshow of all the things we did this year.
Then Mary came to my house and we played Phase Ten with my mom and ate TONS of Sour Skittles! Then we went to Mary's house and waited till 12. Then we went outside and rang bells and slapped pots and pans together and yelled "Happy New Year!" I got to bed at 1. And I woke up at 10! I'm STILL tired!! Oh well! Its been another GREAT year!
I want to thank all of you who have helped me shape my life and be the person that I am today. (that includes you, Miriam!) I love you all and hope you had a wonderful year just like me!
