*Hola!*

Hiya! 

I haven't written in a little bit and LOTS has happened - kinda :)

Last Wednesday my sister Melissa went to serve an LDS mission! wow, she's going to be gone for 18 months! and most of that time is going to be spent in Albania!!! I know crazy right? But anywho...even though I'm sad i'm not going to be able to see her until I'm 16 (which is only a year and a half away...:) hehe) I can't say I'm not glad that she's gone :) Because now I have my own room! Par-tay!  I really hate sharing rooms, especially when you have to sleep on a bunk-bed. ugh, TORTURE! But now thats she's gone I have my own room, and its clean, and its re-arranged and I'm not going crazy anymore :) Life is good. 

OH! A GREAT thing that has happened since I last posted was that I went boating. O. My. Goodness. It was SO much fun! Even though I did get kicked in the nose ( haha..seth!) and flew off the Tube a few times, and my face got sunburned, AND i hit my head on some random thing poking out of the boat... I had a BLAST! I only went tubing but it was very...funny...to watch David, Evan, Taylor and Seth: 'no-board' (basically get dragged behind the boat) and surf.  It was especially entertaining to try and see Seth surf :D lets just say surfing is not his strong point haha, there were many back-flops and belly flops. :) oh, and apart from tubing, no-boarding and surfing we went swimming.   Swimming was fun ( I didn't freak out in deep water. Woot Woot) however.....david, seth and taylor (and sometimes Evan) found it their duty to dunk me...a lot. one moment i would be above the water and then the next, i was under. oh, and knowing how much I hate fish they decided that it was really funny to grab my feet and try and make me believe I was getting bitten by fishes...ha...ha....

then, after boating we went back to their cabin and had delicious pizza,played rockband and watched I am Legend.- ha that was an experience.  I think by the end of that movie no one wanted to watch another movie with me ever.- cause ya see, in 'intense movies' I talk alot so i don't get as freaked out and another nasty habit i have in intense movie is screaming...yeah....when something pops out and freaks me out, I scream, loudly :) but, yeah, that was my boating experience.

o, my , goodness! Batman: The Dark Knight was simply amazing! Heath Ledger did an amazing job!!!!!! and dang, Christian Bale, holy cowza! He is one attractive man :) There is this one part where he gets off his motorcycle and WOW! He looked...there's no other word for it...hott!

It was an amazing movie, even though it was...'dark' it was still amazing!

but anywho.

bye! 

Memories of LPA

Anna and I! Aren't we lovely? I actually think that this is a really cool picture and we totally took it on accident! I had zoomed the camera in on accident, but it turned out really cool I think!

Erica, Preston and I. We are being his adoring fans. :) that was like my favorite part of the Broadway Review being Preston's adoring fan! 

The last day being 8th grade president ( now I'm Student Body President :) ) 

Chris Quick - 8th grade secratary, Preston- 7th grade Pres.  ME, Erica - 8th grade V.P., Taylor - 7th grade V.P, Shelby Thomas - Student Body President. 

*sigh* being in office was lots of fun this last year. 'It was like 30 pounds!" "Bad things happen in the dark..." "23, 23, 23, 23...." wow, lots of inside jokes and Ton's of fun making posters ;) (haha) But being in office of the school year 07-08 was definitely a blast! 

Aww... Shelby and I. Aren't we cute? :) We took this the night of the LPA ice skating party! 

Puma puma!

Ah, Zions. Zions was really fun! Even though it wasn't as fun as 7th grade... it was still a blast! I got to ride to and from Zions in very nice R.V's....ah bliss :) I got very competitive when we started playing Egyptian Rat-screw. I LOVE that game. I'm speedy :) Watch out for my fingernails  or you just might find that you have a scratched up finger when you play that game with me...I'm aggresive :) 

Anywho, our campsite was infested with caterpillars! grody! on the first day they counted over 300 caterpillars in our campsite!!!!! EW

But zions was really fun. The picture is of Blake, Karlee,Marcus, David, Me and Sarah and Jason was taking the picture. We just finished the hike The Hidden Canyon. It was SO pretty and it was lots of fun!

S*U*M*M*E*R

OK! since I have absolutely nothing to write about,  I will write about my summer.

So far, my summer has been SO much fun! I've been to Girls Camp ( that was a blast), EFY  ( SOOO much fun) and I'm starting dance classes this week! I'm taking ballet for the firs time since I was like 8 ( I think ) I'm kinda of nervous but excited at the same time! Shelby Thomas is going to be in the same class with me so that will be fun!  

Other than what I've mentioned above I haven't done anything REALLY exciting.  I've been to a baseball game with my family and saw fireworks there. I've hung out with a lot of my friends. oh , and I've crocheted a BUNCH! Because I'm making a blanket for my friend Anna...and I'm almost done with it! Hallelujah! I've also knitted a bunch. I'm knitting my sister a scarf so she can wear it on her mission and remember me! But, this scarf is about the ugliest scarf  I have ever seen ( sorry Melissa) but it will be a reminder of home! :) Melissa leaves to Albania for 18 months  next wednesday! How crazy is that? And, while I will miss HER I WON"T miss having to share a room. I hate sharing a room! And I'm so glad that I will get my own room back when she leaves....(even though I'm very sad that you'll be leaving Melissa)  Oh, before she leaves we decided that we need to have all of these "Movie Marathons." Last week Melissa and I had a Harry Potter Movie Marathon!!! We watched all 5 movies in a day.  It was pretty much exciting, even though the acting in those movies are atrocious and they leave out a BUNCH of stuff fromthe books, it was still fun watching them.   Melissa, Shelby and I still need to have our Lord of the Rings Movie Marathon. Those movies are just so darn good!  And on Friday our family (minus Mom...she's a wimp and doesn't want to go see it :) ) is going to go see Batman: The Dark Knight. I'm SOO excited!!! Its going to be AWESOME!  Plus Christian Bale is in it....man, is he attractive ;) 

*sigh* I've finally come to accept the fact that summer is slowly going away and in less than 2 months I'm going to be  back in school.:( However, I'm kinda excited for 9th grade. I'm going to be very busy! I have Student Body President responsibilities as well as Dance Company. I"m going to be dancing  5 hours a week (monday, wednesdays and thursdays) But it'll be fun. I'm excited!!!!  I'm also going to take Honors English and Geography! 9th grade seems very  promising :)  But I don't want summer to end! I still have things I have to do this summer! Like, go swimming, get tan, finish the Book of Mormon, make lots of money, watch all cool movies, read all my favorite books again.....

Well, I can't think of anything else to write, so goodbye!
