What I can Say about My 2010.

This year I can say I've over came and learned so much. I've grown up a lot. I know for one thing I grew a lot closer to my family especially my cousin Tessa. I've grown closer in religion too. This year I've took chances and I feel like I've really almost found myself, I've worked on a bucket list even. 2011 I'll be even stronger and I get my license (:
2011 might be my last chance to see a bunch of family so I'm letting nothing stop me from seeing them. No cheer next year, but that leaves room for more opportunities. I love all the people I've met in 2010, I love being alive and having the life I do.
Love to all my family & Friends, I wouldn't be me with out you.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

If you're trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them; everybody has had them. But obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.
Michael Jordan

If you accept the expectations of others, especially negative ones, then you never will change the outcome.
Michael Jordan

I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

No matter what happens, I'll always be with you. Forever.

Let me get this straight. You know her. She knows you. But she wants to eat him. And everybody's okay with this? DID I MISS SOMETHING?
-The Lion King

Yes. So whenever you feel alone just remember that those kings will always be there to guide you and so will I.

Last Days Of School.. [=

Katie dragged me to the store with her and Makade (so scary! i hate the way he drives) and i found this cute puppy that i thought of my very best friend shyann!!! would love! [: i miss her. and i didnt get to buy the thing cuz i didnt have stinkin' 7 bucks. :(

This is Katie doing her handstand .. DaNielle had to get her up there because she was too scared to do it with camera's around.. i didn't really care

I LOVE HANDSTANDS!! They are the funnest things .. [: i miss playing UpDown in elementary.. those were the best days ever!

& this is my very favorite Garett ever!! playing dress up[: i think it was that same day i watched him play Chasing Cars on the piano.. i had no idea he could play! He's so amazing! i love this kid!

GoodLuckAndrew!

Tonight we had a going away party for my cousin Andrew Owens. He's decided to go serve our country. I'm not too excited but he's ready for it and he's thinking this is what he wants to do. My other cousin Chad (Jones?)left for training also, just two weeks ago. I hope they'll be safe out there and know what they're doing because they've got family here waiting to see them come back. Well of course Andrew isn't married yet, but Chad has 3 kids and a wife so he's in bigger trouble making it back. But either way it's hard to see someone willing to go out there and risk they're life's. My uncle Russell just made it back like 2 years ago. He served in Iraq and i cried all the time thinking he wouldn't make it back safely and since he's been back i've seen how much it changed him. It changed my relationship with him too, by alot. But it's getting better. Anyway Supporting Our Troops!! Thanks to all those guys who put their life on the line for us everyday! & good night [:

new? :)

school's almost out! i got a new favorite song! but playlist doesn't have it. so here's the site for the music video.. i really love this song! it makes my day everytime i listen to it! [:

Baby Ellie

She's growing up! i love her to death! She says Morgan as "MO-ME" & when Kaysen was a baby he would call me "MO-MO". I think it's cute but she gets tongue tied saying Mommy and Mo-me. AND! There's another baby on the way, In october! So exciting! [:

♣ ♤ ♥♠Saturday,Sunday,Monday!

Saturday was awesome. I spent all day with my Aunt Kelly in Cedar. I haven't done that since i was like 3-5 when i used to go to delta with her and watch every one of the 4th of July parades and hang out with her neighbor (my very first boyfriend ;] ). So we got to know each other all over again sorta. She took me shopping and was more into than i was and i loved it! :] I love my Aunt Kelly!

Sunday / Mothers day was spent at church, then we had a dinner with my grandma & grandpa, uncle Russ and Bevan s families. Trinity Raegan Connor and Kaydence went wild in JB's it was so crazy! Lana made the biggest mess out of a little bit of pie, she's so cute! Then there was me who was sick and onrey the whole time but i still liked being around my family. Finished up my dream house assignment too! Made my day[:

Monday! Today! Started out waking up feeling like a hero; i had the most intense dream about saving my amazing friend Garett's life! & i wore the new shirt Kelly bought for my super early birthday. Gym- Scored for my team in basketball- again feeling like a hero [: Then testing was easy, so that's always good.

Seminary (funny to say I'm like such a gospel geek when most my friends aren't, but oh well)

[D&C 50:24]-Have the light of god with you in your life and everyday will be bright and brighter.
that's not really what the scripture says but that's what i summed it up to be.
I felt pretty proud finding that scripture [:

But then when i got home all that excitment kind of just faded.. chores and homework and a pregnant mom, with me sick, and ellie who's becoming a stinker- i guess part of a great day is good enough, get what cha get. Just kidding i love my mom and ellie! Of course!

What I'm Wanting to Grow Up For

My Dream Home :]

It's always been a big deal to me to have a nice, big, PERFECT! house. I've always thought of what I want in my house & what i wouldn't want. I've always drawn out houses & added things that anyone else has thought of or dared to put in a house but, always thought would be cool or better to have.

But i haven't worked on that for a while, & now, in my Interior Design Class at school MRS. JUDD Assigned us to make a floor plan of our own dream house. I'm so excited but I'm working way to hard on it like it's all i can think about lately. :] it makes me so anxious to grow up & get it over with & just sit in it & know its mine just the way i like it.

So basically when i grow up i want to learn all about Architecture, Interior Design, even somewhat of plumbing stuff & electricity stuff just so i can put together the best homes ever. Especially mine. But on the side i want to be a photographer because building houses isn't a steady income and it takes 5-6 years to finish college. So I'd get done with photography first & earn my money up that way to start on everything else :] but i'm up for whatever anyways.

Just Lately

i love my friends and myself right now haha just kidding i just liked that picture of me so i thought i'd share it! :D 1st picture is my buddy Jayson(he took my jacket). 2nd is Katie, her sister, Tausha and Me stopped in the middle of a busy road on the cross walk for this picture on our way to ideal Dairy to get Some yummy ice cream (story of my life!). 3rd yeah that is the lovely Morgan Alice Bennett - i'm sure you've heard of her :] 4th. oh.. thats me again on the terror slide in annabella!

1st day of Cheer

i was terrified at first. Now i cant wait for next practice!

Our coach is pregnant.. so we'll have subs like all summer long! Plus a lot of Car Washes and other fundraisers! She wants us to have at least 4 dances and stunt routines by the end of summer! and have all the cheers memorized.. (i can do this!!) no cheer camp. just going to Yuba for a weekend with the squad-doesn't sound fun to me but whatever. I'm just used to Yuba since my family lives there so whatever lol. I'm not a flier but i probably will be if my flier wont like flying! she's way scared and shy so we're trying to get her more out there [: so i base, and its not fun exactly.. but maybe it'll get better as it goes [:

I've got GYMNASTICS TOMORROW! Wish me luck on my Back Hand Spring and i think I'm going to do my back flip and i have to per-fect, my round off. gee. [:
Getting my grades up and I'll be so excited for summer!

Praying For Miracles

I was in Scipio today for my little brother Kaysen's big 11th birthday celebration.

In Scipio; My friend's Mom- LINDA STEPHENSON (sorry i cant spell). Is in the hospital in critical condition. Emily- my friend- is only a year older then me and is an only child, i cant imagine what her and her dad are going through right now. Linda is such a sweet person and has had little heart troubles here and there especially when Emily was born really early!
This is very scary to me, I'm so thankful my family is healthy and blessed.

While i was in Scipio the bishop of the ward called my grandma saying there would be a Prayer Circle/town Prayer for Linda at the church @ 7:30. I was lucky to go, I've never been to one before and i thought it would be a nice experience.

When i was in that room, just walking in i felt something heavy but a good feeling come over me. There was a lot of Old Folks that showed up (of course its Scipio) and it was just so neat that they would make an effort to come and help make a Miracle happen. I saw more friends come in & i ended up sitting by someone i had seen many times before, because you see everyone at least once in Scipio, but i had never talked to him & i didn't feel nervous or scared what so ever. Everyone was there for the same reason, same cause and it was such a great feeling to know that there are all those people to back you up with the same faith you have. I love Scipio, i love the people there, i love the gospel and i love prayer! I have no doubt in my mind that at that time when Brother Don Quarnburg gave a long VERY spiritual prayer that Emily Linda and the rest of their family were comforted. I know things will be okay, maybe not all the way, but there isn't anyway anything is going to get worse after that town prayer. I'm so lucky to have the gospel and to be in such a blessed family and place.

I hope everything is going good for you guys [: and please remember to pray - I know it works! Its one of the best feelings in the world to know you can ask and you will be answered.. even if it doesn't work right away you CANT GIVE UP! please never give up! Love you all! [: G'night!

Start Over.

SO.. The Updated Me:
My favorite color is blue. seahorse. movie; Elizabethtown. i love ice cream. i love the swings, long walks, long deep talks, car rides, my family and my friends.
My ultimate cure for a bad day= Long walk + Music + Ice Cream + Phonecall from an old long away friend + old cartoon/movie + looking at photographs of times of laughter=TADA.
Lately i have enjoyed spending spare time on jogs & exercising. Working toward a 4Pack of abs! Since i made cheer i thought it should be a good idea to get into shape. I almost have my splits, all the kinds. I am in Gymnastics working on my back handspring ..still. Gaining trust & faith in myself!
Grades are good, Friends are fine. Family camping trip coming up!! CANT WAIT!
Summer's almost here baby! and only 71 days to go til i am 15!
Love You all! and Hope your all up to your best times and efforts! [:

Drum Roll Please [ :

Cheer try outs were all last week after school. At first they taught us a dance (i suck at dancing) so i got scared of it and wanted to quit right away but my friends made me stick to it and helped me alot and i realized its really not that hard haha. i just freak myself out too easily. So Friday was the real real try out day and we had to go out in front of the judges with our group.. well my group kinda all quit besides me and katie haha so just us went out there. and ........

I MADE IT!! [:

so now i am officially a cheerleader for south sevier high school.. TADA!! its pretty exciting.. i feel really accomplished and brave haha!

I Found this on Facebook Somewhere..[=

When you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day,
Just go to the mirror and look at yourself
And see what that man has to say.

For it isn’t your father or mother or wife
Whose judgment upon you must pass.
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one staring back from the glass.

You may be like Jack Horner and chisel a plum
And think you’re a wonderful guy.
But the man in the glass says you’re only a bum
If you can’t look him straight in the eye.

He’s the fellow to please-never mind all the rest,
For he’s with you clear to the end.
And you’ve passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the man in the glass is your friend.

You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years
And get pats on the back as you pass.
But your final reward will be heartache and tears
If you’ve cheated the man in the glass.

we look like idiots. Ellie looks pretty out of it and i have a pretty cheesy smile going on there! ahah.
Well i'm super excited!! its been on and off snow and sun lately! and i love when i can go outside on the tramp without the snow and with out a jacket! [: i cant wait for this quarter of school to end so we can get over with 4th quarter and summer can start!
Cheer tryouts are MONDAY! i'm absolutely terrified, but i've made it this far without changing my mind. i even started gymnastics (my cartwheels are awesome! and starting on my backhandspring freaked me out!) so i guess i'll stick it though and be tough i mean all this practice would be for nothing if i didnt at least go to tryouts. [wish me luck!!]
there is 103 days left til i turn 15! then i can get my learners if my dad ever decides to finally put me behind the wheel ever! [: well the family Easter trip is coming up! whose all coming? i've never been to the spot we'll be camping at.. so i hope it'll be fun!

Poor BabyCake..

See the huge greenish/yellowish spot to the bottom right on ellie?
Thats the bruise and she has this like Spring thing on.. This is the only time we could get her to hold still . my mom even had her arm in the way lol so this isnt the best picture.

Ellie News.

I wish I had a picture to show, Ellie Broke Her Collar Bone!

My mom and dad said she fell out of her high-chair when they were both in the Laundry Room. Dad said when he came into get her she wasn't really crying she was just in shock and whimpering. She was flat on her back when he picked her up. And she didn't really cry. But for hours she wouldn't do much, she just wanted to be held and if you moved her while holding her she would fuss. It was so scary, I was thinking maybe she hit her head and gave herself like mental issues or something,just a thought]:
But we finally noticed when she would stand her one shoulder would drop and there was this Big Blue Bump on her collar bone.
My mom took her to the doctor and she cried through x-rays and all that stuff. She has a Splint/spring/sprint whatever that's called, across her back around her shoulders now. She'll be okay soon enough. Just have to be careful with her. :]

2/13/10

I think I'm beginning to miss the people i used to know..
The things I used to do, look forward to, play with..
The friends I used to call, see at school, talk to, fight with..

& lately its like every single memory is catching up to me when I least expect it.
like de ja vu. More than most the time it makes me upset, like if would still be in scipio, in richfield, if shyann would have never moved away, if I wouldn't of taken the chances I did take- what would things be like now..?

It's so weird to think that this is really not the future you thought you would have a year or so ago.
Everything's totally different.
You never know the real out-come of every decision you make or any chance you take.
Every road leads to new intersections
& every intersection leads to another stop sign
Every gas station has a different drink for the ride,
Theres always people passing by but Nothing will ever, always be the same.

Thinking Too Much..

I was at my gma's house when i saw this new TV show. On the show these four guys have a List of 100 things to do before they die and it was crazy stuff! and it made me jealous sorta =P so i got home and worked on my bucket list.. anyway it made me kinda sad tho because i was thinking of all the things i cant wait to do like events and stuff, then i thought about like going to all my friends' weddings and all that..(weird to think i graduate in like 3yrs and then college then I'll be married and wow.. ew..) BUT i was really thinking of the friends i will never see again. I'm really scared of that happening.
Also I've been thinking of trying out for Cheer, since my friend already made me promise to at least show up at try outs. And when i asked my aunt about it she said -you Don't want to get old and say that you missed this opportunity and all the memories that come with it. So!! I've been trying to get guts & my splits =P haha & at church one of my leaders said this ; quote "Have faith in yourself because the lord as faith in you." -Michelle Knight lol.. THAT IS MY NEW THEME to get me thru the year 2010~ What do you think?
