well yesterday was my 8th grade promotion. it was a really long day. first i got up at 7:15. got ready to go to the auditorium. got to the auditorium and sat in my seat with my homeroom. then i got my certificate and a plaque for playing all 4 sports and going to all-state choir. watched a slide show of all the 8th graders and their baby pictures. i cried on toria's pictures. then afterward took some pictures with toria and all my friends.

Then since mom and dad had work, i went to a friends house until noon. Then at noon we went to becker lake for a party for the 8th grade. i would've jumped in but i had been in lyman lake the night before. had some hot dogs, brownies, and cupcakes. then it got really cold and started to sprinkle so we got in a friends 5 -seater car with 11 people. then ate some war heads and went to another friends house.
Got to my friends house at 2:30. sat in her bedroom and napped/ talked for 3 hours. then we got ready to go to our promotion party at seven.
Got to the promotion party and danced. I was awarded: Going to be best grandparent, with anohter kid. Ate pizza and took a ton of pictures. Danced some more and just had a good time. Then Toria had to leave to St. George for a little. I cried so hard and so did all my other friends. It was really hard. I just broke down when she drove away. I love her so much! Then a few other kids were having a parties and i didn't want to go to any of them, neither did a few other friends, so at last minute we decided to go to my house for a little bit.
Taylor, Stella, Kylie (we are crying if you cant tell)
All my friends! (most of us were balling our eyes out)
Went home Early to clean up the upstairs. My friends showed up and we played boxer and briefs.*awesome game* We played it for a really long time. then we played a little ping pong. Then we got out the rock band and went to town. It was really fun, and i am glad for friends who help me so much. I am grateful that i was able to get promoted. and i am really nervous for high school. It was an extremely hard year, and i cant believe its over. I will miss toria and all my holbrook friends over the summer.
Lamoni, Dustin, Rachel, Stella, Kylie, Taylor, Thomas
One of my close friends is moving to St. George. Her dad found a better job there, and it is closer to family.I am going to miss her so much. Now I know how it feels to be the one getting left behind. It reminds me of when we moved. It was so sad, but now i am really glad we moved. I love it here, and I never thought I would! But toria does swim team with me. and she is an awesome softball pitcher, and she is so muscular and built, and she is gorgeous!!! I love her, and I hope I can stay in touch with her forever!!
This year the 8th grade took a trip down to Phoenix. WE went to the legislature building, the mall, a d-backs game, amazing jakes, and skate land. it was fun. I will get pictures from all my friends and do a different post on it!
Friday was crazy. I got up went to school, and did my skit. We smashed a watermelon and some other crazy stuff. Then I went home to do the hives thing.
It was amazing. She started by me pushing up her arm with my fore arm. I was pretty strong and she couldn't push my arm down. But when I held this bottle of possible things I can be allergic to (my shampoo, detergent, and drop of blood.) I could not keep her arm up. I had no strength at all. That means I was probably allergic to it. It was amazing how all those things just drained my energy. Anyway, then I sat on the couch, and she tapped my back in this weird sequence for s little. then I laid down and she began pressing pressure points from one side of my body to the other, while I held the bottle of stuff. MAN! those points were extremely sore. Then I had to lay still for 30 minutes. I sat there and one foot would get cold, then the other. Then I would go numb. My body was adjusting to all those pressure points telling my body to not be allergic to all those things. The bottle got really hot. Then when I was done, I felt lazy. but I didn't get hives for a long time.
Then that night I went to the school dance. It was one of the worst dances I have been to this year, I danced by myself almost all night. But luckily i had my loyal friend Taylor who would happy me up. And I found out that I did win student council.
Then when I got home I got hives again all over my back. They hurt so bad. I didn't get to sleep till a little after midnight.
I then woke up and went to softball practice.
How's that for my weekend? Sorry I don't have any pictures.
I am so excited. The two people I was running against dropped out. So, I basically won. I am really excited. Just to let you know. But, I will still fill you in on the hive procedure, and how my speech went!
Well, for the past 2 months or so, I have been getting hives. Nasty ones too. they get huge, and wont go away with anything. We thought it might be this new laundry detergent my mom bought. but no we switched it, and I still got them. I have tried so many products, it is unreal. At first it started out to just be ones on my back, arms, legs, and upper body. but lately they have gotten so disgusting on my legs. I fell like such a freak. At track mm, eets when I get them, people stare at me like i have this contagious disease, and they won't talk to me.
I stay up late in the night scratching and not sleeping. It has been an itchy 2 months. but, on Friday a lady is coming to see what is causing these horrible irritations. And the good news is she isn't giving me any shots. just pushing pressure points, making me hold different things I am might be allergic to. And then hopefully I will be hive free.
So, Friday is a big day. I might get rid of my hives, and I have elections for student council. Wish me luck.
So this year I am running for freshman treasurer. I have ran every year and lost by 5-10 votes. I am kind of sick of losing. There are two other kids running against me. I really want to win. I don't really have any good ideas of what to put in my speech. or what to do for a skit. I will let you know next Friday whether i win or lose. (day of elections) so if you have any ideas for my speech or my skit that would be awesome! I really want to win. but i don't know what to do!!!!Thanks
Spring has come, and it is still not very warm. But, the sun stays out till 7:00! It is wonderful. We have puppies. So, the garage smells like poo! Also, track is going good. Mitchel is doing baseball. Sully is doing little league baseball. And we are all trying to keep up with school. It has been really crazy. So, just hoping your spring turns out good and is full of warmth.
i decided to go snow boarding. (since I wasn't allowed during basketball because I might get hurt.) It was a windy day on the mountain. My eyes hurt like crazy going up the lift. But, other than that it was a good day. Me and my friend Kylie were the only ones snowboarding. the rest ski! We ate lunch at the lodge, fell, went really fast, and learned dome new things. I hope I can go again next year!
Kylie, Dustin, Stella!
So today was our first track meet this season. My events were: shot put, 400 meter race, 200 meter race, and 400 meter relay.I did pretty well for being kind of small in my group. I got 4th in shot put. 4th in the 400. This was my hardest race, because you have to basically sprint the whole thing. Well, after the race, I started blacking out and my legs were cramping up! it was a bad feeling. But, I got 1st in the relay, and I'm not sure what I got on the 200! My mom took some pictures, but I didn't feel like loading them, so I will post those later.
So now, since basketball is over track has begun! I don't really like to run, but I really like track. My best event is shot put! and I really hope I can do that well this year. It is spring break right now and we don't have practice. which will be a really awesome break!! I haven't had a break fom sports since December! I will try to keep this updated to whether I do, well, okay or not!
(hopefully I can do better with keeping my blog updated as well)

So as you can see we did really good! we made it to the championship game and played a horrible game, had the worst refs, and some (but most) of the g i r l s on the other team were jerkish!! I cannot tell you how many times a gall would kick me in the shins for dribbling past her! It was an intense footbal/basketball game. Hopefully the next time we meet Joseph City, we will beat them!
In case you can't tell, I am #22! the one who looks uncoordinated and dorky!
In my picture folder, the 6th folder, 6th picture is.....
ME!! This was last summer!!
I tag.. anyone! I don't care just if you have the time.. do it!
So, aunt Tennille & uncle Boomer gave us some oranges. So, we decided to 'juice' them. (make orange juice out of them) during it, I took some really cool pics of them. (at least they are cool to me!!) I know nerdy right? lately i have been really interested in photoraphy and have been thinking wether it could become a profession of mine. I think it would be fun to be a photographer. Anyway. these are really random. and probably not that great. just thought i would share these with everyone. (not like anyone really reads my blog) but i decided to anyway.
So, as most of you know, Lindy, Ame, and Tevi came up!! The first night they were here, i was with my friend Taylor, and my mom said they were coming to our house on Friday while grandma Risa and grandpa Barry were at the temple. Me and Ame had so much fun!
So, in my career exploratory class, we get to use the computers a lot. And, when you get extra time you can play on the computers. Well we have discovered a thing called photo booth. It is an application on those computers, where you can mess around with the picture, while you take it. Anyway, so a few weeks ago, I discovered my moms laptop had it. And, our normal computer has been all messed up, so we have been using my moms laptop. So, it was at the house when Ame got here. We took some awesome pictures. also, we watched The Little Mermaid, Straightened her hair, drew on the side walk with chalk, watched Kung Fu Panda!1 (awesome movie) and we watched spongebob. and took pictures a lot of the time.I had a lot of fun. Im glad she got to stay with me. So there are a few pictures.(we took over 100) I'll do the rest later. My favorite picture is of Tevi!! He looks like an alien!!***Thats how i did the picture in my heading!!***
Since its late, I'm doing a quick post. New Years and Christmas was fun. But this post is a quick update on Taylor. She was released from the hospital! She was able to come home for Christmas!!!!! I was so excited and so was she. she was able to be home for about a week and a half. She got a wii for Christmas!(its one of the things she wanted) and she came over to our house, and over to my other friends house. She still has an eye patch. And since they had to shave a tiny part of her hair for the draining tube, she has short hair in that part. she calls it her "man" hair. And she loves to feel it. She is going back tomorrow right after church back down to mesa. She will live with her sister and do out-patient therapy 3 times a week. she will do speech therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy. She will be hoe- schooled for the rest of the year. I'm excited she is doing awesome! But, still keep her in your prayers. I will post on Christmas & New Years tomorrow. I'm really tired right now!
