I know I said it in the last post and I'll say it again. I fail at this!! Okay so now I have to try and remember anything noteworthy that happened.

Before I talk about whats happened to me I just wanna talk about Michael Jackson for a minute. When I found out that he died I was super sad. He was an amazing musician and performer and he will be missed. His memorial this passed Tuesday was wonderful. I was totally fine till his daughter spoke and then I lost it. I feel so bad for his family and his children. Please keep his family in your prayers especially the children. R.I.P. MJ

Okay now thats over here we go for the real stuff.
On the 3rd of July we went to a baseball game! And our team lost...horribly. But we had treats there and after the game they had fireworks!
The 4th we had a meeting with the people we are getting our new house from. They are so awesome and the house is even more amazing then I remembered. I cant wait to live there!
Then we came home and my dad made ice cream! Mmm his homemade ice cream is the best. Later we had a BBQ and did fireworks with some people in the neighborhood.
This Monday we had a family party with the Crandalls and the Twitchells for birthdays. It was just like normal haha nothing noteworthy really happened but it was fun.
Yesterday I finally started A1 driving school lol. Its taken me forever to get in gear and get it done but I finally started yesterday. I just observed and it was really boring. But the guy driving was really cute haha so that made things a little bit more fun. Well here are some pictures! I hope everyone is doing well!

Holy crap I fail at keeping this updated! So not a whole lot has happened. A couple weeks ago I went to Color Me Mine with my mom and my brother. For those of you who dont know, Color Me Mine is a place where you pick something out and and you sit down and paint it and a few days later they get it back to you. It sounds really lame but its super fun I LOVE it haha and I'm not even artsy!
Last week I babysat for the lady across the street. She has 4 kids. Ages ranging from 1-7. They are super cute and I love them to death. We took pictures so I'll post those so you can see 2 out of the 4 kids.
Sunday was fathers day! Yay! We didnt really do much that day we just gave my dad presents and went to church and all that jazz.
Yesterday I went and hung out with Sammie, Austen and his friend Craig. We had fun lol. I havent seeen Austen in forever so it was really weird seeing him again. Hes a cool dude and his friend is aweseome too. After they had to leave Sammie and I went to my house and just chilled on the tramp and looked at the stars and talked. Then Hannah came over and we talked to her and stuff. It was pretty fun.
Today my mom wants to go shopping! Yay! Well I'm gonna go. Peace!

Yeah I know I wrote not too long ago but I need to keep this thing updated haha. So yesterday was my brithday and my mom wanted to take me to Build A Bear! I've never been so it was really cool. This is my bear.

After you make the bear you go to this random computer and get a birth certificate for it. Her name is Isabelle. Bryan made something too. He made a dog named Harley because he is wearing a Harley Davidson jacket. Here is a pic of Bryan and me with the things we made! Yes my hair looks stupid in all of these haha.

After Build A Bear we went and had lunch at the foor court in the mall and my mom bought me a jacket (which is in the next picture). Then we ran a few errands and it was cool I guess. My brother has never seen the Provo Temple to we drove by that and it was pretty cool. After our errands we went home for a little bit then my dad came home and we went to dinner at La Doche Vita. Here is a picture!

After dinner we went home and my parents had to go to a meeting regarding our new house and they were gone for a LOOONG time haha. But when they finally came home we had cake and I ended up putting 17 candles on the cake. I'm 17! WHOO!! Sorry I dont have a picture of my cake I didnt get one of those haha ooooops. Well I hope all is well with everyone and you are having an amazing summer (or will have an amazing summer). I'll keep ya posted!

Hey! So school is over and I thought I would write a quick blog.
Over the passed couple of weeks not a whole lot has happened. I took finals (which sucked) went to water aerobics, recorded a CD, performed at graduation and got my yearbook. School got over last week which means I'm a senior now!! Yeah its weird I know. Tuesday is my birthday and I dont have any plans for that but I really dont care haha I just wanna sleep. School this year totally killed me and I'm so dead.
A couple days ago my mom wanted to make a frozen pizza for dinner and guess what? She burned it. I didnt think that was possible with a frozen pizza hahahaha. I recently discovered a band called Owl City. They are first on my playlist here so you should check them out. I love them! They are coming to Utah with Relient K soon but tickets are sold out so unfortunatly I cant go. I'll just go when they come back again some other time. Well this has been lame but I will leave you with a semi-interesting picture.

Oh! And notice my bag in the picture haha. If you cant see it, its a David Archuleta bag from his concert.

Soooo I havent written in what feels like forever! So lets just do a real quick recap since I have nothing else to do and stuff happened that I'll probably forget later.
April 30th we went and saw Wicked! It was super duper amazing! Before the show we went to this fancyish restaurant and had steak. Haha yeah it was freakin good. The show was super amazing and I dont even know how to express how much I loved it. We were like 10 or so rows back and we were in the dead center.
On May 6th Bryan had a theater performance. Grandma went with us. He was good but he looked really bored throughout most of it lol but its all good. I have some friends that were in it too so it was really fun to watch them. One of my friends sang and I had no idea she could sing! She never told me or sang around me! Ahh! lol sorry had a freak out moment.
Last Saturday was State Choir festival. We had to perform at 815am! I pretty much wanted to die. I hate waking up early and we had to be at my school at like 715 so I had to get up at like 6. We sang and got pictures taken (which I still need to pay for haha oops) then we left. But the funny thing was that we had 2 buses and they thought they were supposed to come get us at 530pm so 1 of the buses came which left half our choir stranded haha it was funny but sad. We got straight 1+ which is the best you can do at a state competition. Oh and we got a wow hahaha yeah we had fun with that.
Last night was my last choir concert for the year =( I'm sad about it cuz all the Sr.'s in that class are graduating and we are all so close. That choir is like a family and losing half of them just sucks. Next year is gonna rock though. We sang 4 songs last night and we did pretty good for not being memorized on our words haha. A choir at our school called Show and Chamber sang And So It Goes by Billy Joel and I had a freakout moment when I heard that because David sang it on AI last year haha yeah sorry about my obsession. I need to get it under control but its too darn hard!
Today was just school. In choir I found out that there was a fish in our hall pass (our hall pass is a mug). So now we have a class pet. Its a goldfish and our teacher named it but I dont remember what she named it haha. For Aerobics today we went to another school in our district and played badminton on their tennis courts. My best friend and I took second! We werent even that good haha so it was funny that we made it that far.
And now I leave you with a picture of me and Bryan (whose birthday is tomorrow btw. He's turning 12!!!!)
