Summer fun!!

This summer has been so great so far! Hannah had a long trip with my grandparents, Casey gets to go to EFY, Tyler can run and jump, and soon I'll be going to Girls' Camp!!!

I'm also going to another week long camp thingy that's like EFY but for 12 and 13 year olds, and with only girls. I'm so excited for it! I'm going with one of my good friends, and I can't wait!!!

Wow, I haven't posted anything for a very long time!

I can't believe school is almost over already!!! It's almost summer for cryin' out loud (although it sure doesn't feel like it weather wise)!

In English, we are doing poetry and so I would like to share a poem...

Animals

Gosh, I think it would be fun,

to see a wild cheetah run.

or a monkey swing in a tree;

hanging there, watching me.

A big elephant just roaming around,

leaving footprints in the ground.

A silver dolphin swimming fast,

in a race, she'd never be last!

It's sad to see them in a cage,

(if I were them, I'd be full of rage).

Someday I want to set them free,

If they could talk, I'm sure they'd thank me!!!

I hope you liked it!! (: (:

Catch Up

Let me just catch you up really quick: Softball is over, the first quarter is almost over, I'm playing recreation volleyball, Halloween is next Sunday and I still don't know what to be, and last but definitely not least, tomorrow I get to wear my pajamas to school!:)

I've loved getting home at 3:00 instead of 5:30! It gives me time to do my homework then play with family and friends. I can't believe the first quarter is practically over! This school year has gone by so fast! I love playing volleyball, I would have tried out for the school team, but I wanted a break. My team is really fun, and that's all we care about-having fun!!! I can't believe Halloween is NEXT Sunday! I don't know what to be for Halloween so if you have any easy cute/fun ideas, let me know!!!! I'm going trick or treating on Saturday. If you think I'm too old for that kind of stuff, too bad because I'll be going when I'm 99 years old! This upcoming week is Red Ribbon Week at my school. Tomorrow we get to wear pajamas, Tuesday we wear school colors, and Wednesday we wear mismatched things, and crazy hair. It'll be funny to see people in pajamas, I'm hoping the teachers will too!!!

So Busy!!

I've been so busy recently. I've had softball every week day until 5:00, then I have to do my homework, eat dinner and get ready for the next day! What ever happened to being bored out of my mind?! I've been liking Jr. High so far, I like getting to move to different teachers and I also like having a locker. I can't believe how fast school has already gone by! It'll be summer again before we know it-ok, it'll be a while:)

School!!!

I'm so excited for Jr. High! I've got my schedule, stuff for my locker, new shoes, and some new clothes. I'm a little nervous if Jr. High is what it is in movies-with all the bullies picking on people and stuff like that. I don't think it's like that, but still:)

I'm really excited to meet new people and go to stomps and other activities. I'm especially excited to have a locker. I love making things organized and all cute and stuff:) 7 classes, riding a bus to school, lockers, P.E. every day-it's all new to me!

Girl's Camp

I had the opportunity to go to girl's camp this year. It was amazing! Our theme was "Sisters Around the World" and so each day someone would come to talk to us about a country in need of help. Then after we would make something for them. For Mexico we made hair flowers, for Africa we made Tye-dyed onesies, and for Haiti we made soap. It was a lot of fun to help them out.

My mom got to come because she is our ward's camp director. I was happy that she came. I met some really nice people and had an awesome time!

10, count em' 10 puppies!

3 weeks ago, Molly had 10 puppies! She is a pure bred Labrador. There are 3 blacks, and 7 yellow, some of the yellow ones are a little bit darker, and there are 3 boys and 7 girls! I'm so happy! Molly is such a good mom, but I'm sure she gets jealous of all the attention her puppies are getting! One morning one of the puppies started howling and then all the other ones started to howl! It was the cutest thing! It will be so hard to give them away, but it helps that at least 2 of our neighbors are getting one. TTYL!

P.S. I'm so excited for school!
