Field Trip

On Friday April 23rd I went on my Spanish field trip. We left at 5am & went to the San Luis Rey Mission.
-Old town L.A. where Alice Fiddler got herself cartooned in like 10 minutes for $10..it looked awesome (i wanted to get my done but, we had to leave so hopefully I'll be able to some other time for about the same price).
-Then we went to Knott's Berry Farm Resort where Alice, Alexis & Sarah & I roomed together. We ate dinner, went swimming & went & ate at Tutti Frutti Frozen Yougurt..Delicious!! :) Then we hung out in the hotel room & our teacher taped all of the doors until morning.
-In the morning we checked out & we had to run to the bus because we had to put our things on it...he thought everybody already did that but..we didn't it was soo funny!! Then we went to Knott's 10am-10pm & we rode almost every ride!! I got a Snoopy Surf's Up shirt!!:) Then we went to McDonald's so people could eat & John was spending all of his $ on a stupid game trying to get an ipad...he finally stopped. I didn't get home until 4:30am & left for church at 10:30.
~~I had so much fun packed into 2 days & I'm sad that it is all over!!

Spring Break

I really didn't do much except chillax this spring break (i have today off too)!

-I had track practices this break...i know lame (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday & Today {9am-11am}. We have a track meet tomorrow at Cibola.

~Monday we (my fam) went & watched 'The Bounty Hunter' & played 2 rounds of golf @ the Yuma Fun Factory. I also got a wallflower from Bath & Body Works & got new spikes & got a gel arch for my track shoes.
--My shin (on the side) has been hurting & I'm going to talk to my school trainer about it & see if the gel arch will help. (i've been icing & stretching my leg but, it still hurts....hopefully I can get it better soon!! )

~Tuesday & Wednesday we (Haylee, my mom & I ) watched records on our tv. Wednesday night we went easter dress shopping...Haylee & I got 2 adorable dresses.

~Thursday we went to CA at about 4pm to spend as much time as we could with my dad.

~Friday we went shopping again but didn't get anything...except a cardigan (sp?) & ate lunch at my dad's store. Then when dad got home from work we ate dinner & played leggreto (sp?) & scrabble.

~Saturday we watched General Conference ate lunch at dad' work again. Then again we ate dinner & Haylee, dad & I played scrabble while watching '2012' (the movie was pretty good).

~Sunday we watched Gerneral Conference ate lunch & went home.

~Today I'm trying to finish up some things that I need to do before school tomorrow.

Where to begin????
~ Shawna came into town Jan 22nd - 26th & I enjoyed the time I had to talk & hang out with her! :P
-Jan. 23th I went to the stake dance & I danced with the cutest guy!! I had so much fun at the dance!! :)
~I have watched 'When in Rome', 'Dear John' & 'Valentine's Day' since I last posted ..all of which I loved!! :D

~Nothing has really happened besides the same seminary, school, track, homework, dinner, & bed schedule!
-I have a choir concert on Tuesday & I'm not really confident with the group.
-There is a track meet on Thursday but don't know if i'm going because only the top 6 people per event will go (its in El Centro).
-I have been improving in track & hope to be able to go to one of the meets!

~My mom went to Utah at the beginning of the month (for about 5 days) for my cousin & his wife & kids sealing in the temple.

-My grandpa passed away on President's day about 2 weeks ago...it just doesn't seem real to me.

(I miss you grandpa)!

-So my mom left yesterday to San Francisco for my grandpa's memorial (b/c his kids live there & he wanted his ashes in the San Francisco Bay & they saved some of his ashes to bury in his rose garden). My mom will go to Texas with my grandma for a while & expects to be back home on the 10th.

-Sometime in the summer (probably in the beginning of June) my mom, haylee & I will be going to my grandma's house for our own memorial b/c we couldn't go to this one. I'm glad that we will be able to do this b/c I wanted to go to Texas this summer & this will get me there. During my visit there I plan on spending time with my grandma, the Shipley's & the Sorensen's.

~My dad got home early early early this morning & will be here until Wednesday.
-Shawna & the kids are going to arrive here tomorrow & will be staying for about week.

~Thank goodness for my dad or Shawna for being here most of the time my mom is gone b/c I'm in charge of cooking dinner every night & I haven't had a lot of experience in the kitchen so they will be helping me! :)
-My mom told me once she gets back I will be helping her in the kitchen more often so I can learn to cook.

Busy but having fun

Pre-season track is doing okay..I guess. I was really out of shape & I'm still working on it.
~During my Martin Luther King 3day weekend I watched 'Avatar'..which was really good. I thought it was going to be stupid but, I talked to a lot of people & they said it was good, so I went..& I'm glad I did.

~Maggie & I finished 10 hours of piano playing/teaching...& I'm proud of how Maggie improved. Maggie & I played Swanee River (duet) together at YW's New Beginnings on Wednesday. It went really well & people were suprised how we did.
-I accompanied the YW on the piano to 'I Walk By Faith' it went ok...the ending got a little messed up but, that is ok. We are doing it again on Sunday in Sacrament meeting so I have to practice it again..hopefully I'll do better.

~Yesterday I got out of school at 1:45 because of the high winds & rain. I played in the rain for about 30 minutes...Maggie, Jamie, Haylee & I went on the golf course & slid in the puddles...it was fun!! :) The only bad part was that last night my legs started hurting..like huge bruises but, they didn't show (today they feel better)!
-Yesterday there was a tornado watch & as the night went on the weather calmed down & stayed that way!
-Last night I rented 'Star Trek' from the redbox & watched it with my parents...it was good (I didn't think I was going to like it).

~Today school was cancelled because the district thought that the weather was going to be worse than yesterday..they were WAY WRONG!!! I just like how Heavenly Father has a sense of humor...I started laughing when I woke up this morning & saw the bright sun!! :DToday was a beautiful day in Yuma..sunny with a breeze..it did get colder outside at about 2.
-So, I'm upset because I'll have to make up school on a day I would have gotten off..which I would actually want...but oh well. Well look at the bright side I got 2, 3day weekends!! :)
***So that is what I've been doing for the past couple of weeks...being busy, but having fun. :)

Again...

I went back to school on the 7th (I know weird right.starting on a Thursday)! Today we started actual work again & i'm doing pre-season for track! :)
~On the 20th (of Jan.) the YW are having YW in Excellence & I'm putting 10 hrs. in helping Maggie play the piano...I REALLY NEED TO PICK A SONG FOR HER TO PLAY & FINISH MY HRS!!!! We have a lot of work to do with so little time!

Winter Break

I had 2 1/2weeks off of school for christmas & new years.
-Josh & Amanda arrived the 21st of Dec. (monday) & we hung out & celebrated Christmas with each other.
-Then we went to my grandparent's house in CA on Sunday 23th of Dec. after church! We hung out, played Apples to Apples, played Shanghi, playing Haylee's & my DS's & enjoying each others company!! We watched 'Sherlock Holmes' & went to Hollywood Boulevard for 2 hours...(so we wouldn't get a ticket). I hope I can go again so I can take my own pics & be able to take my time looking at everything!! :)
-Jake left on the 30th & Josh & Amanda left on the 1st!
-On the 1st I stayed up for CA's new year...& drank some sparkling cider..yummy!! :D
-For the rest of my stay I read a couple of books, watched 'Princess & the Frog' & went to the LA Zoo...I saw kangaroos!! :)
-Mom, haylee, & I left on the 4th after church & lunch!
***Thanks so much Nanna & Grandpa for letting us stay with you again! :P

-When I got home from the trip I cleaned my room, did my chores & got ready to go back to school. I hung out with Maggie on our last free night!! Thanks Maggie I had a fantastic time playing Mario Party 8 (even though you beat me)!! :) That was my amazing Christmas break & new year!! :)
