Somebody's been a bad, bad blogger :\

Like everybody else... I've been a bad blogger. It's been a pretty eventful month for me... full of good and sad times, memorable moments, and just pure randomness :).

Hmmm... where should I start? :)

We went on a BEAUTIFUL hike (hanging lake) and this is what it was! Isn't it gorgeous? There was a big tree that had fallen over into the middle of the lake so we walked across it into the middle of the water.

On the hike there was a cute little house thingy so..... obviously we to took a picture :)

I got a new set of scriptures (on the right) for my birthday. I compared them to my old set of scriptures (on the left). I love my old scriptures, but there is something great about having more pages to mark up and write on that makes me smile :)

SENIOR YEAR!!!!!!!! Ahhhh!! This is my Student ID card. I'm actually really happy with my picture this year! :) Which is always a good thing, right? 

After the Ward Luau I brought a bunch of my crazy friends over to my house and watched Psych and ate popcorn (and beef jerky... if you're Callie).

My CRAZY friends :). We were on our way to a band competition (which we did AHAMAZING at)!
AF took first place and swept all the caption awards. Davis got second.



I feel bad it's been so long! And this blog post probably isn't the best :/ but at least I posted right?!

Thanks for visiting :)

My 17th Birthday!

Can I just say... I have the most AMAZING and WONDERFUL Family and Friends in the ENTIRE world?! I really do! I’m so blessed and SO grateful that I have these friends and family members! I’m so thankful for their wonderful examples to me and for the love they show for me! I thought my birthday was going to be kind of lame because I had school until 2:30 and then I had to go to band at 5 until 9 at night. So it just kind of felt like a typical school day. My friends told the Drum Majors it was my birthday so they made me stand up and the whole band sang to me. While it was rather embarrassing, I did love it :)I got home from band and all the lights were out and at first I thought: "Wow, they all went to bed, this is great." And then I saw the birthday cakes all lit up on the counter and I heard someone giggle and I got really excited as they surprised me! I was SO happy! After a long hard day of Marching and school, I was really happy to come home to my family!
The day after my birthday my friend Marissa took me out to Orange Leaf and to the park at the library, me not suspecting something to happen there, ended up getting cake thrown at my face! Which was on my bucket list! I’m so thankful that I have the greatest parents in the world! My mom saw that I had “get in a cake fight” on my bucket list and decided to make it come true! I was so excited!!! :) I was so happy to see all of my bestest friends in the whole entire world... even if they were smashing cake into my hair. :)
I have the BEST family and friends and I am SO thankful for them! I’m so happy they all got to spend time with my for my birthday!! I love you guys! :)

Catching Up :)

I feel like I haven’t posted anything in a long, long while! :) So... here I go! :) I’m catching up!

My Birthday was AMAZING and I’m so grateful for everyone that made it such an amazing day! My mom, dad, sisters, brother, and friends!... oh! and that lady that did my hair!!! she did a great job and I’m happy with the way it turned out! :) Thanks all! :)



School started... bleh... :) Haha. :) I’m glad to call myself a Junior and see all the little sophmores... except it’s the weirdest feeling to think that I was them last year, and that all the seniors and juniors were thinking that about me! :)



A lady named Katie came into talk to our Priests and Laurels in my stake this wednesday. She was in a car accident just a few years ago and found out that she was paralyzed. She talked about how instead of letting herself be miserable, and always wondering “why me?”, she decided to try new things and do things that made her happy. She was so inspiring and I’m so happy I got to hear what she had to say! :)

Band Camp, My Birthday, And School!

Band Camp.... *sigh*! Hardest week of my life! ... even though it’s not technically a week. :)

Which is totally fine with me! I’m not complaining! :) haha

I’m so happy It’s over! I was so sore and tired and my feet were in so much pain I just couldn’t wait to get home! But I watched my show and it is going to be AMAZING! I’m so excited! We do such cool shapes and forms and our music is really fun! Our show this year is called:

SHADES OF CONFLICT!

Cool name huh? :) haha I LOVE it!
