I love my family and spending time with them! :) I couldn't ask for a better family. I love them all!! Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!! :)

Update....Finally!

So I haven't updated my blog for a long time, and I finally got some time to update. I am loving my Senior year so far...except all the homework I have every night. Its still crazy to think that I'm a Senior! Where did all the time go? This week is Homecoming and it will be a lot of fun too. The theme for this year is "Welcome to the Jungle" last Saturday we went and painted windows for FCCLA (pictures will be coming.) I promise I'll try and keep updating my blog! :)

Oquirrh Mountain Temple

On Saturday we went to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House. It was so pretty and amazing to see how much work was put in on the Temple. I loved being there with my family and feeling to peace all around us. The rooms were very pretty and peaceful. I love spending time with my family! I can't wait until the day I get married in the Temple and have all my family with me too.Even though the sky was cloudy the Temple was still so beautiful!Mom and Dad

4th of July Weekend

Hope everyone had a safe and fun weekend. On Friday we all had the day off so we spent time with each other. We went to the fireworks over in Aurora to kick off the 4th of July weekend. Caydee came down with Brandon and spent the weekend with us too. She was a lot of fun to be around. On Saturday we stayed pretty busy, we went over to Monroe to my Grandpa's for a cookout. Heather and Gavin came down to come with us to the cookout and parade. Gavin and Laynie are getting so big!! The cookout was fun and it was great to spend time with the family too. After the cookout we came back over to Salina and watched the parade. The parade was really good, some of the little girls I watch at the Daycare did the Mini Cheer Camp and was so excited that they got to be in the parade with the Cheerleaders. The girls have shown us all the cheers and dances they learned at work everyday. When the parade was over I went back home to get ready for the Rodeo with my friends. The Rodeo was a lot of fun and the fireworks were great this year! Hope everyone had fun too! :)

Highway Partol Banquet

Last Wednesday Mom, Dad, Brandon and I all went to the Highway Patrol Banquet up in Ogden because Brandon was receiving a scholarship from them. We met Grandma and Grandpa Brown and Breeanna and Tanner up there too. We had dinner and a program by the Highway Patrol. My Grandpa Brown is a retired Highway Patrol so we get to go to the banquet with him. Before the dinner they had a Table of Honor set for the Highway Patrols who had lost their lives while in the serves. It was really neat to see all the things the Highway Patrol does for the community and everyone around them. I had a lot of fun and very proud of Brandon for getting the scholarship. Some of the pictures are kind of dark sorry.

Girls State 2009

I haven't had much time to blog. I went to Girls State the first week in June and it was a lot of fun too. I met new people and had a great experience. I was in Clyde City with 27 other girls by the first day we all became like sisters and really close with each other coming from different backgrounds. My counselor was Cary Fisher aka Mama Leah, she was awesome and was like our mom for the week. The theme of Girl State this year was "Believe" meaning to believe in yourself and your country. I loved going to Girls State and learned a lot new things about the government and gain a better respect for the Soldiers who are fighting for our freedom. Thanks Mom and Dad and Grandma and Grandpa Brown for giving me the opportunity to go to Girls State.

I'll get more pictures of Girls State this was just a few I had of graduation.
