XC

So i started cross country in august, and its the funnest sport i have ever done! well idk if you would call it a sport, but ya. for practice we run between 1-5 miles every day after school. it sounds hard, but when you have really good friends on your team, it makes it really fun!!

Our first meet was in Green Canyon. We ran 1.6 miles, and i got like 13:35 or somethin like that. Our next meet was in Freeman Park. We only ran 1.5 miles, but that day neither me, or kelsie felt that good so we got like 13 min again. We got to go to bosie for a meet. none of the middle school kids got to run cause they didnt have enough money, but since me and kelsie were already going to watch kolton run, we got to run too.

When we got there, it was POURING rain!! the varsity boys and girls all had to run in the rain, then the freshman boys ran, and it was so nice outside!! it was perfect temp for running!!! then they started the freshman girls, and it was really nice outside, then it started to rain again. you could see the HUGE big black clouds starting to come. after the girls, it was middle school boys, then girls. they postponed the girls race because of lightning. it was raining really hard! it was lightning really bad. it was really scarry!! we ended up deciding to go home. me and kelsie didnt get to run, but it didnt really matter because we still got the trip to Boise!!

On friday was our meet in Blackfoot. it was the flattest course i will ever run!! it was 1.5 for the middle school. when i started our running, i was in first place. then i let someone pass me, cause i didnt really know where i was going. i ended up getting 7th place out of the whole race. my time was 11:15!!! it made me so happy!! they decided to give out the top ten people meddals for the race!!! me and kelsie got medals cause she got eighth!! it was the best race ever!! and i bet that there were at least 20-30 people running for middle school!! it was the best race ever!!

cross country is fun, but the best part is that my friends get to do it with me too, and kelsie and kolton too. i especially like the meets cause my mom and dad cheer for me the whole way!! its always lots of fun! and hearing there voices while im running, knowing that there proud of me makes me was to run faster than i have ever run before!!

thank you everyone for cheering me on!!!!!

Life Wrap Up

So i know i havent really written in like 2 or 3 months, but im sorry, youll see why in just a minut!!

so this year im in 8th grade in RMMS. kelsie is in 7th. i enjoy having her in the same school as me again. no more gettin home at different times, no more tryin to get ahold of eachother, cause were just in the same school. but being in eighth grade also brings one joy to my life, and one dissapoinment to my moms. i go to high school next year. ya its way exciting for me, and kinda scarry, but for my mom, it may be difficult. she cried when i turned 12 and went into YW, she cried when i got babtized( well most moms do) so i think that it may be hard for her, or it may be fine, either way, ill just nod my head and agree. that usually works.

i am now in bonneville cross country. so is kelsie and kolton. its fun having your brother and sister in the same activity at the same time. its fun just to get out and do stuff together. every day for practice we have to either sprint, or run 1-5 miles. it may sound hard, but when you have a bunch of friends to do it with, it is fun.

i started dace again. i know i quit last year, but i just needed a break, so now im doin it again. but it kinda interfears with xc and track. xc gets over at 5:30, or 6 on mondays, and dace startes at 5. i would MUCH prefer running, but dancing is fun too, so ill have to suck it up.

i am also in piano lessons still. i still take from Christina hudman, who is an EXTEEMLY good teacher, shes patient,and nice, but still pushes you a little. some piano teachers push you to do good, others are nice and are patient, but dont try to push you. Christinas both. i love taking piano lessons, but they interfear with xc too. same with dance, its a time issuse.

well, thats my life since i wrote last. so now you can all stop bugging me about writing again!!!

Girls Camp

sorry its taken so long to write this, but ive kinda been doing it a little bit at a time.

Girls camp was a blast this year, it was stake camp, and we went to Darby. the very first day, we set up camp, then we went to the lodge to do our skits. ours was hilariouse!!! we were the tooth faires, so our skit was about having wisdom, so we had a wisdom tooth, who helped us in every day challenges, and how to have a better life style, so after every time the wisdom tooth was done telling us the right thing to do, we all said, GOT WISDOM? then some of us said, WORD! it was so funny!!!!



the second day was hike day. we all had a blast the whole time, but the one thing that was bad, was that our hike was at 6 in the morning, it was better that it wasnt as hot, but we all were tired when we had to wake up at 5. we all hiked monument, or the win caves hike, we didnt go in the caves, but we did see the monument. it was a fun hike!!

Later that day, we decided to prank the leaders, so while they were sleeping, we put saran wrap around the tent, and safty pinned the zipper closed. then they woke up because we were so loud. once they realised wht we had done, they started laughing. we thought that they thought that there was only the saran wrap, but they knew we pinned it. so we decided to go clean the bathroom. while we were cleaning, they came with squirt guns! while they were squirting us, the guy outside making sure no one was coming in while we were cleaning, told us that we had a hose in the bathroom! that made them run!!!

the very last night, it was raining really hard, so we decided to sleep in the cabin. that was fun. it smelled really bad!! it was really hot!! but it was better thatn being flooded by the rain! spiritual night was the same as always, everyone crying, and were all happy our parents were there. except this year we didnt get the cows mooing the whole time like last year!( maybe some cows just like to bear there testimony too!!)

over all, it was a fun girls camp!!! thank you mom, who put alot of effort into making it fun!! and thank you for all of the pranks!!! it was a blast!!

Girls Camp

ok, as most of you may know, im gona go to gils camp in a few weeks, so all of you people out there who have gone to girls camp when they were in young womens, and everyone who went as leaders, i need some help. i need pranks! and of course, my mom is goin, so i need some for her too! so, if you have any, please, please, please, let me know, cause im leavin august 5th, so i need them quick! thank you so much!

Washington Trip

Washington is the best place in the world, it has lots of trees, its by the ocean, and its never too hot, in fact, i could live there for the rest of my life! well, in arlington, or mt vernon. not seattle. but im not writing this post because i love washington, and i love visiting there, its because i love spending time with my family, and i love doing stuff together with them, wether its just me, and my mom and dad, and brother and sister, or if its all of my cousins, and aunts, and uncles, and great aunts and uncles. washington was great because i got to spend the whole weekend with all of my family. but now that i have talked about all of my family, i want to talk about just one specific person. Max. now, i know most of you, mostly my moms family is thinkin, whos max?? why does she want to talk about max? well, ill tell you why.

Keith Grace

most of you may know, matt and andrea williams. if you do know them, then you probably know that they have 3 kids, Grace(6), Keith(3), and Max(18mnths) . i dont know why it was, but for some reason, max just loved me, i dont know why, or what i did, but the whole time i was there, he wanted me to hold him, and he would grab my hand, and pull me to where he wanted me to go. i had so much fun with max all weekend, but then it was time to leave. that was the saddest thing ever! i didnt want to leave max! even though he had no clue what was going on, all of us were sad. no one wanted to leave, we all wanted to stay forever! i wouold have slept in that tent every night if i had to, just so i could stay with that family, and most of all, max. it was hard to say goodbye to him, and i will miss him, but i know i will see him in a year.

Me and Max

Fun Cousin Day

So while james and sam were gone, we decided we would take her girls for a night. well, we all had ALOT of energy, so we decided to do some dancing to HSM. while we were dancing, we got out all of my old dress up, and put it on, and took lots of crazy pictures of us dancing, and dressing up.

I love when my cousins come over, and i love spending time with them. we always have so much fun! thank you mckinley and raegan for the fun night we had dancing!
