School 2012

And the school year, now begins!
For me at least. 
School started last Monday for highschoolers.
And that means a lot of things are happening at the same time!
This year, I am in my Sophomore year.
Abby is in her 7th grade year
Emma is in her 4th grade year
Abraham is just going for anything.
We all will be attending Noble Youth Commonwealth.

I am also attending Early Morning Seminary that begins at 6:00am. Meaning that I wake up at 4:39 am.
fun.
This year I am taking several classes at Williamsburg Academy . 
I am in
American Literature. 
U.S. History
Earth Science
Geometry
Fitness for Life
Independent PE
Independent Fine Arts
Shakespeare Conquest
And I will be learning Italian.
So it means that I will have a very, VERY busy next 4 months. But, what can I say...this is the route to graduating early. Therefore, I deal with it. 
But all of my mentors are FANTASTIC, and I couldn't want better ones. So, I am really happy!

Happy School Year!
Cheerio!

Bubbles and Rain

This year Las Vegas has been blessed 
with a bountiful bunch of rain. And it has been so nice!
So last Wednesday, when it was raining,
(and I was in total bliss)
our cousin came over and we went out side and
blew bubbles.
And you may be thinking "How would that work?"
Well, it worked A LOT better than in the sun!


And here is my proof!


They actually stay on the ground!


Forever!


And they change into beautiful
colors!












So we spent many hours out int the rain.


It was so lovely


And the air was so nice











We even had a few games going...
chest bump 
;)






Everyone wanted to pop a bubble.


So many say that 2012 would have been terrible,
but if this is 2012?
Im digging it!
Rain all the time...
wow.

Education week

This week, my sister, father and myself are spending the week in Provo, Utah and the BYU campus. 
Where we will participate in hearing talks each hour
.
The day begins by waking up at 5:30 each morning.
Our first class starts at 8:30. We either chose to eat breakfast, or we didn't.
I opted not to really eat anything during the week, and to be honest, I felt great! Isn't that crazy, we think we will have more energy if we eat, but we feel so much better when we dont! At least for me. 
Oh our human brains. :)
Anyway. So we would listen to various speaker each hour, until 9:30 in the evening. And at the end of each night we would be very exhausted! :) Sitting will do that to you!
But...there is a magical place....in the place of Provo....and it is called....
SAMMYS!


It is a shakeplace, where they put 
cupcakes or pecies of
pie in your milkshake!
And it is MUCH better than your normal shake! 
Try it!


This is our second day at Education week.
Where I started to go to a few of the
adult classes.
Which, by the way, are just
as good as the youth classes!


This was a lovely sunset, that I couldnt
quite get the right
picture, but I tried.



3 times.


^^Our third day at Education week.^^
;)


It was actually really great!
We left a little early to go and eat.




And we passed all the flowers that are around the
Salt Lake Temple.



This is my favorite picture!






We went to a Mexican 
restaurant
And I found this!
snit it just great!
The family whose house we were staying at
said that they had
been to the restaurant before they covered the guy
up!
I think it is just hysterical!


On our final day, Abby and I were very sad that our week was over!
We cant wait till we go next
year!


But we were able to get many good
things in.
We went and saw 
The Odd Life of Timothy Green
and that was such
a sad movie!

I was also called and asked if I would be able to play
a musical number in church!
Ha ha. It was Friday night...and we wouldn't
be home till late on Saturday.
I have no idea what took over me, but I said yes...
And I didn't do that bad. :)

But overall it was a great week
and I look forward to it next year!
