It Just Started

2011-07-18T18:40:00.000-07:00

Summer

almost

over

and I'm very

sad.

It literally felt like it just started 2 weeks ago. Although have had little bursts of fun here and there I haven't had the summer I was hoping for. On Saturday the "I'm Bored" really set in. And school would prevent that, i'm just not looking forward to it at all. Summer is slipping away too fast!

You see i'm not a real home body person. I like to be out a doing something. My mother, exact opposite. Now thats not a bad thing it's just i cant really go anywhere. Yes i do have my license but paying 50 cents a mile adds up quick and the money disappears quick when you dont have a job.

Get this, i haven't even been swimming once this summer! I know! Seriously someone get me out of this house! All i've been doing is watching Bewitched and my dad is not a big fan of sitting around all day. Don't worry i sometimes see eye to eye with him.

But the point of this post was not to complain. I've decided to try something out. Now i've never done something like this before so bare with me. I'm going to have an "adventure" each day! and i will share it here on the good 'ol blog! I hope i can keep up each day. I had something for today but havent' gotten a picture of it or loaded. So tomorrow there will be two.

This means i will be taking more pictures, which i have been TERRIBLE at, and not being so bored. It will be like and end of the summer scrapbook type thing. It could be crafting, something seen in nature, hanging out with friends, something new, anything.

I will also be able to keep up with the other things i need to blog about it! I have some pretty sweet stuff to tell you about, remember no pics and i mean none!

So, here's to the last 3 and 1/2 weeks of summer! I want to make them the best ever! Hopefully i will get things accomplished that i have been wanting to do in a while. Wish me luck!

Love Always,

Kyndra

Remeber When

2011-07-17T16:37:00.000-07:00

No I'm not referring to the song.

I know im late, but i just thought i would do a little post about my big sister. She turned 21 on July 3rd! One day before my birthday. So here goes it:

Remember when... On special occasions (such as Christmas or birthday's) we would sleep in the same bed. Yes it was a twin bed and yes it was a little cramped. But i loved the opportunity of doing it!

Remember when... After a fight we would make up and say sisters forever!

Remember when... I came and stayed with you for spring break! That was the best sb ever!

Remember when... You came up with my nickname tinners with the minners. It was on the way home from...somewhere!

Remember when... you came up with a rap to said nickname above! Haha best ever!

Remember when... We went and picked out your wedding dress. Of course you do! Well it's a great memory of mine too.

Remember when... We used to say "you're acting all that"! I do! long story we wont get in to.

Remember when... You asked me to be your maid of honor. I don't know if you officially did but it was the best "calling" I've had so far! That is until i am called Auntie!!

Remember when... You and TJ ALWAYS tease us with the "we're pregnant" when you're not. Yeah not nice. I just can't wait until you really are.

Remember when... Grandma made us that doll house! That's going to be a treasure for our daughters for sure.

Remember when... that one summer, not too long ago, we watched Bewitched almost all summer! That was something special! and now i'm doing it again. ah the memories.

Remember when... We took TJ to Utah! Best road trip of my life!

Remember when... i left you OLD sprite bottle out and you tripped over it and cut your foot when it shattered. I really am sorry for that. As for all the other things i broke of yours too.

Remember when... I would sometimes be jealous of what you got for Christmas or b-day! True admiration!

Remember when... This was the first birthday i didn't spend with you. I missed you a lot!

Remember when... We were obsessed with the Mary-Kate and Ashley books! It's cause we were too cool!

Remember when... we would listen to your Brittany Spears and *N Sync cd over and over! again with the cool thing...

Remember when... We fell in love with A walk to remember! Don't deny it! i wont.

Remember when... We would make clay and shrinky dink creations! You were always amazing!

Remember when you crashed mine and Courtney's tea party. Well i don't either but i have a picture to prove it!

Remember when... You look GORGEOUS on your wedding day! I have the prettiest sister in the world!

Now.

Remember I love you to death!
Remember you are beautiful!
Remember you are my bffe (best friend for ever!)
Remember you married an amazing man!
Remember I look up to you!

What am i doing. You don't need a reminder of these things! But sometimes it's good to just let you know!

I wouldn't trade you for any other sister, or friend in the whole wide world! You are the best any one could have!

I love you and hope you had a wonderful birthday and that your hubby treated you well on your special day!

If nobody notice, or counted, there are 21 "remember when's"! But here is just one more for good measure!

Remember when... you saw me for the first time! I really wish i could because i know that we just had such a strong connection from the beginning. If you can remember that far back from you 5 year old little mind (I'm sure there were more important things on it at the time), you would tell me because i would love to hear it.

I wish i had a really good picture of us but i'm too lazy to find one! I will make sure the next time i see her we will get an amazing one and it will go up on this here blog. Until next time...

Love Always,
Kyndra

I know im lame

2011-06-24T18:04:00.000-07:00

It's true! i hardly post but no one ever reads anyway! but check out http://www.whippycake.com/ right now!!! i'm in love and i know you will be too!!!

I dont know what to title this

2011-05-15T14:50:00.000-07:00

Well the number was a fever number. But, I'm all better now. Which is good because I only have 9, yes nine, days left of school. It's so close it almost doesn't seem real! I just hope summer doesn't go by as fast as this school year did. Is it just me or did we just start school like a month ago? Anyway, I had a great year! Mesa is awesome and I really love my friends.

So I changed my blog a bit. I'm not sure if I like it yet. It took forever but I kind of do like the look of clean white and open space. It may have to grow on me, or I'll come up with something else.

Really I don't have much to say just wanted to say something since it's been a while. I have some ideas of future posts working up in my head, so look forward to those. Have a great sabbath and ENJOY the rest cause tomorrow Monday again!

Kyndra

102.4

2011-04-26T19:09:00.000-07:00

Can you guess what this number means?!

Shoes...

2011-04-17T12:28:00.000-07:00

I know, I know, every guy thinks girls are way too obsessed with shoes, and I can admit I kind of am. Just a little bit. I think every girl says that. But seriously, these shoes are AWESOME! I would die if I got them. They are just so amazing and the perfect running shoe. Ok I know I shouldn't use the excuse of not having a good pair of shoes to go running but seriously, I think I would love it a lot more. Like in my last post, I said I want to run more over the summer and it would be a dream to get these a the beginning and use them every day! How cool, and they have the best colors! The only problem is, you know the price. That seems to be the problem a lot lately, hmm I wonder why. Anyway, I just wanted to share that with you cause I've been wanting them since I first saw them on Nike. And another cool thing about them is it would connect with the Nike + Ipod thing, so I could jog with it all hooked up and cool looking. Well, enjoy your wonderful day of rest!

Kyndra

P.S. the video that starts automatically when you find the shoe is definitely worth watching to explain it better than I can. It's so cool!

I Can Do Hard Things

2011-04-16T18:08:00.000-07:00

So, think back to about a week or more ago when I mentions I would be running a 5k. (If you even read that first post I had done in a really long time). Anyway, that 5k came today, and I actually did it. I'm so happy I did and it feels great to accomplish something so biggish for me. I ran slash walked all 3.1 miles (in case you were wondering like I was!). I can't believe that I pushed through to the end when there were so many times I could have stopped and given up.

Now time for the story:

(shortened a little of course)

Before it began, I was a little nervous I will admit. I mean this would be the farthest I had ever in well I guess my life. There really wasn't much time to stretch I wish I had done some at home which made it a little hard. The course was 5 times around Country Side park. They let the runners go first, there was also 1.5 mile walkers, and blew the horn promptly at 8. I was hoping I would be able to keep a pretty regular pace. I started off a little too fast for me to do that, and the park we ran at had sort of a rough terrain. There was one spot where the sprinklers were flooding the sidewalk so you had to run in the rock then you would still get muddy, but it did feel a little good on hot legs. Then of course there was hills and more rocks. When I say rocks I don't mean big boulders just gravel but not quite as small. Not too far into it, I had to start walking which I was hoping wouldn't happen. For the first 3 laps I mostly traded off between walking and running and was not making very good time. Those were the hardest to push through, and it didn't help that my ipod was on soft music making me want to sleep. Once I got to the 4th lap I got more energy and was more awake to run longer distances. I was happy I never got cramps but I did feel a little nauseous. Once I was on that last lap I was so happy to be done with it, and went as fast and hard as I could. It was such a good feeling to cross the finish line! I wasn't sure the exact time I got done, but I think it was around 45 min.Even with the sun beating down us I really didn't feel to gross and sweaty which was good because there was a lot of people there. The stake had also planned some games for little kids so we stayed and watched a little. Later in the day, after I showered, I pampered myself a bit! I curled my hair (which I love now that it is getting longer!) and did my nails. Then my mom and I went shopping and I bought a pillow which I have been waiting to go on sale at Target. The one by us was out so we had to go a little farther but I'm so glad I did. I'm sure you all have seen them around blog land everywhere. I'll have to take a picture of it sometime.

Well that is one goal that I have now completed. My next in that are is to run over the summer and do a 5k in under 30min. It will be another great challenge! Enjoy your weekend!

Kyndra

Love!

Summer...

2011-04-05T19:19:00.000-07:00

...is too long away! I am so excited for school to be over but at the same time, I can't believe we only half 7 and1/2 weeks left! My soft-more year is almost gone! It has been a great year, mentioned in my last post. I'm really looking forward to summer but want to finish out the school year strong.

Some things i'm looking forward too:

swimming

running

working out

tanning

drinking lemonade

crafting

riding my bike

relaxing

vacationing

hanging with my friends

Enjoying myself!

and........turning 16!

which also means my license!

The one thing i'm not looking forward to is the HEAT! I have definitely been loving the winter weather which might mean one thing, not staying in the valley when, I move out within the next 3 years (scary scary). I'm also planning on seeing more of my sister! Maybe if her husband can handle this heat! So basically I really just cannot wait for Summer!

Some pictures that describe what i'm looking forward too:

I love this swimsuit from shabby apple and hope to maybe get it for my birthday!

Whippy Cakes new summer line Fair Fare! I love all her hair accessories!

Doing Insanity from start to finish! Yes!

Well these are just a few pictures. I didn't want my blog to be completely boring as it already is so I thought some pictures would help spice it up a bit! Be checking in for more soon!

Catch Up!

2011-04-05T18:46:00.000-07:00

Well, I know its been a while! Geesh! Don't hate me sorry! Any way so your probably wondering whats going on with my life since its been oh 7 months. Well first off, I LOVE Mesa High. It has been such a blast and even though a complete different environment I would never want to go back to Junior High. Not that it was bad or anything, it was just definitely time to move on! I have so many friends that help through all the stress that goes on with being in HS.

My all time favorite class (besides Seminary) would have to be ASL. I have learned so much about the deaf culture that I never knew before. The teacher is great and I love being able to learn a new language. Just a couple of weeks ago we did deaf hours which I will explain further later! My next favorite class would have to be aerobics. Not only does it make me feel good, but when I go to bed at night I no longer lay in my bed waiting to fall asleep, I have to fight staying awake to read my scriptures! My coach is great and it has made me learn to love working out! I'm really excited for the 16th because our Stake is doing a 5k run and I'm going to do it! I'm nervous but really excited to do it.

With being in school comes AIMS. This is an Arizona test in which we have to pass the three subjects to graduate high school. A couple of weeks ago we did the Reading and Writing assessment then today we did Math. I never worry with passing math but the horrible thing is we tested all day and only got an hour break for lunch. I'm just glad its over! Tomorrow is the biology exam and normally I was supposed to take it last year, but due to a crappy immune system, I was sick. So tomorrow I have to take it. I'm not too worried since this won't count for graduation!

Alright, so back to deaf hours. As a project for sign language she assigned us to do six deaf hours. We had to go out with 1 or more people who knew sign language and who she knew also, and we had to be deaf. It would have been easier had I not put it off until the last week, but I still finished. It was so much fun and interesting to see how some people have to live every day. We could only communicate using sign and only do it for an hour at a time. For one of the hours we went to the deaf ward. We didn't have to be deaf ward but it was so interesting and nothing really what I had expected. They did songs in sign, prayers in sign and of course talks too. There were two people there who interpreted which was way helpful for us. I enjoyed what we did, mainly being with friends!

Well, if you made it this far your awesome! Sorry for such a long post and the lack of posting. I promise to try and do better in the near future! Be checking back soon for more, even though not much is happening. I'll find something to write about!

A Scripture

2010-08-12T19:41:00.002-07:00

"Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."Proverbs 22:6

I have been thinking about this scripture lately, and I think it is perfect for the beginning of the school year. Through all the temptations and worldly sins you see at school, if your parents have taught you as best they can to stay on the right path, then you most likely will do so. The key for them is to stick with it even if their child might sway a little off, they can't give up. I am so grateful for my parents and the way they have raised and taught me, that I know right from wrong and will always choose the right!

2 days Down...

2010-08-12T19:28:00.001-07:00

...and 178 more to go! Yay! not. So school did start down in Mesa, and I am now an official Jackrabbit. Wahoo Go MESA!! I'm excited about being an officaial high schooler, but not all my classes and just going to school again in general. I'm in some pretty tough classes but I will make it through. I just read a motto from someones blog "I can do hard things". I'm sure I'll remind myself of that everyday. But, to start the year off great was an amazing father's blessing, given by my one and only DAD! I am so happy that he holds the priesthood and is able to give one to me every year. I also heard another motto, "Make a day, every day". Thats my goal is to make someones day evryday, but not only them I want to have a positive attitude every day so just small things will make mine.
My electives are , Jewelry, Seweing, Seminary, and American Sign Language. I'm really looking forward to ASL and Seminary! I have great friends throughout most of my classes. For my academic classes I have Honors Algebra ll, CP Chemistry, and AA English. LOTS and LOTS of homework.
The first day was pretty great but the second was even better. First day is always lectures of rules and was just sort of a blur, but today the teachers started getting into the fun things and explaining what we will be doing this semester.
I'm really up for the challenge and want to make the best of this year!

Time for a change.

2010-08-03T08:59:00.001-07:00

I say it's time for a change on here. I'm starting a new school so i thought i could do some new things on here. Not much has been happening this summer, but I do think it went by way too fast. My whole summer was mainly focused on this little boy!

This is Emmett! He's my young women leaders son. I've been babysitting him at least twice a week over the summer! He just turned ONE on July 31st and is as cute as can be! I'm so sad to go back to school because that means I won't get to spend as much time with him.

So, I'll be starting 10th grade at Mesa High! I'm excited but have really enjoying the summer, maybe too much! I'm taking a lot of accelerated classes which i'm a little nervous about all the stress and work. I know in the end i'll be really happy I did it.

Well, really nothing much has happened. Hope everyone else has had a great summer!

More DIY Earrings!

2010-03-22T19:13:00.000-07:00

Just thought I would show you some more of the earrings I made!

These ones, I found a bag of pearl (fake) beads at hobby lobby a while ago and used them! Very cheap pearl earrings!

These, I used the same technique as the flowers that look like this. I actually made them a while ago but was waiting to get the backs. They're not that sturdy so when I make more (if i make more!) then I will do it a little different. The matching flower I made to go with it. Actually I made the earrings to go with the flower.

These ones I didn't make, I bought them at Nordstrom. They are super cute and were only $4! Do they remind you of anything....?

Me too! The ones I made for only $.83! I'm keeping both, but I just thought that was a little funny! Any, it's all super fun!

DIY time!

2010-03-22T18:06:00.000-07:00

Hey there! I am really bad at blogging! I just get so busy and caught up in stuff, it just slips my mind. But, today I have a DIY for you, i can't take full credit cause i found it on this blog. www.treyandlucy.blogspot.com (sorry my computer wont paste it so you just have to type it in.)

Your gonna learn to make these! Super cute and Super cheap!Start by getting buttons with the shanks on them. I got mine at Joans, they come with three on the package but you only need two. Always good to have an extra in case. One I think was $1 and the other was around $2. Your gonna cut the shanks off but you don't want the ones with the holes that you see.

You can pick these earring backs up and Michael's, which is where I got them. They were $2.99 and I used a 40% off coupon!

Put a little hot glue on them like so and stick it on close to the center as possible. There will be a mark where the shank was and that's where I put mine, looked center to me!

Also, buy some earring backs. Any kind you like, I found these. Also at Michael's and it was all the same price! Amazing! See I told you, soooooo cheap!

Just like that and your done! Enjoy creating your super cute earrings!
Total Cost: $0.83

Yes!!

Improvments on My Room Step:3

2009-08-06T17:27:00.000-07:00

A NEW DESK!!!!! I had been wanting a desk for a long time, so when Kylie moved out I knew I would have room to fit one. My dad said I had to buy it myself, so I had to find something cheep but a pretty good size. Of course I went straight to Craigslist and looked at a lot. Finally I found this one for only $10 with the chair! We went and looked at it right away and bought it right then and there. It wasn't the greatest but it was cheep. Well, as you can see, the fabric isn't the greatest and there was some writing on the desk so I thought I would paint it or do something with it.

Then we found this one at one of my friends yard sale for only $15 (with no chair) but hey at least I wouldn't have to do all that painting! Plus, it's a little bigger than the other one which is always nice! Here's like the bottom half of it.

And the top half. I found the lamp at Wal Mart for $5! Yes! You can actually see some paint, so now you know what the paint look like.

This is the same chair that came with my old desk and I just re-did the fabric which I found at Hobby Lobby and it was 30% off and added some paint and there you have it!

Improvments on My Room Step:2

2009-08-05T08:16:00.000-07:00

PAINT!!!! I finally repainted my room. About 5 or so years ago Kylie and I wanted to paint our room. We discussed the colors for a while and finally decided on Red, White and Blue. So here's how we did it, we split the wall in half did red on bottom and white on top then where the colors meet we did blue chair rail. (No pics. Sorry) Well it was OK at first but it could get a little challenging to find stuff that matches. So I wanted to repaint, but something simple. We bought some black paint and slapped it on the chair rail. Now, I (my sister moved out and is going to college so it's my room now) have a red, white and black room!!! Yes!! So much easier to find things that match. No pictures right now but sometime hopefully! More improvements to come so check back again soon!

Improvments on My Room Step:1

2009-08-05T07:29:00.000-07:00

A new dresser of course. My dad got a dresser from one of his customers and brought it home. I had been looking for a new one and I really liked this one. BUT, someone decided to color all over it. So, I sanded all the coloring then stained the whole thing and it came out a little darker than the original color, but I like it! It took a while and was not a lot of fun but I did it any way, and I love my new dresser!!

My old dresser that we sold on Craigslist. Yay!!

Sorry it wouldn't turn. But now the new dresser! I like it!

Bye Bye. :(

2009-07-28T18:00:00.000-07:00

Well everyone, say goodbye with me to my camera and pictures. Yup that's right, no more pictures. I bought it with my hard earned money and had it for only a year and now its gone just like that. Someone stole it at Girls Camp or accidentally took it and hasn't returned it. I am still hoping but let's face the truth, it's GONE. I am so glad I got the pictures of Pennsylvania off but now I have none of camp. It is so horrible and sad that someone would have the heart to steel a camera. I mean it was nice to me but not that great. Plus it had my dad's 4GB card in the case and my mini memory card adapter in it. I am really not happy. I don't know what I can do. I've fasted and prayed and still nothing. Well I know right now I don't have the money for a new one but maybe down the road. So, Goodbye my lovely beautiful camera that matched perfectly with my new phone. Goodbye.

BORING!!

2009-06-15T15:33:00.000-07:00

Sorry my blog is so boring. I know, I never post anything and its kinda tragic. All I do is pretty much babysitt. Maybe I'll put on pictures of the kids? Well, it's kind of late but i'm really glad school is over, this year wasn't all that great but I did make new friends and kept my old ones. I'm glad I passed with all A's that was my biggest goal. I just remebered I actually do have a lot to post about and that will be coming soon. So just hang in there and it might get a little more exciting. Summer so far has been pretty good. I've already taken my first two trips: Bluewater (a teeny tiny town in New Mexico), and St. Johns to stay with the Chlarson's (since now it is an official tradition). It was lots of fun with them, I really enjoyed it. One really big trip thats coming up is PENNSYLVANIA!!!! I am super excited. My brother and I are flying there on July 7. It's gonna be a ton of fun. Well, I'll be back later with more PICTURES.

PUPPY!!!

2009-03-31T08:11:00.000-07:00

This is my Aunt and Uncles (they live in CA, its where we stopped on our first night driving up to San Francisco) dog. I wanted to take her home so bad but we were flying back so that wouldn't work. She is so cute. I love her to death. And yes, her name is puppy or copper.

Isn't she so cute. She's only five months old. Hey, there's my cousin running in the background.

She was sleeping like this. I thought she was praying. It was so cute. I took like eight pictures of her. I miss her so much!

SAN FRANCISCO!!!!!!!!

2009-03-29T18:03:00.000-07:00

I got to go there over spring break. It was a ton of fun! On Wednesday afternoon we drove a big Conversion van (really nice and comfy with LOTS of room for all of us to spread out) up to my uncle's, which was about a six hour drive. Stayed the night, and left at 8:30 the next morning. About another eight hour drive and we arrived in San Jose where we stopped at the Winchester Mystery House. It was pretty cool but very weird, and a little to short and boring, definitely not worth $26 dollars per person. Maybe about half that. But, I am glad I went. It was an hour and there was quite a bit of history in it. Then another half hour and we arrived in San Francisco where my aunt lives. We were bring her the new Conversion van to replace her older one. We only had Friday to do anything, which wasn't much time, but we did go to Pier 39 and Fisherman's Wharf. It was a lot of fun, but unfortunately I was having to much fun enjoying the scenery that I didn't get any pictures except of Alcatraz. Then on Saturday we flew home. It was a quick but fun trip. I don't get to see my aunt very often and love to whenever I have the chance. Now here's some pictures.

This is Sheldon collecting railroad ties down by the tracks, down the hill, a very very steep hill from my uncles house. There is a fence with barbed wire, that Sheldon climbed over. It was a little difficult for him to get back up by he managed.

Here is a HUGE body of water with some special name, but I can't remember.

A couple of pianos in the Winchester Mystery House.

An old picture of the outside of the house.

Wallpaper in one of the rooms with mica in it to make it sparkle.

Sideways picture of the most expensive window in the house: $1,500.

This is Alcatraz in the distance.

It was so much fun! I can't wait to go back again.

Hey Ya'll

2009-02-01T13:02:00.000-08:00

How's it been. It's been a while. I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I know I did. It's unbelievable, a new year is over and another just begun. I am so happy that I'm finally done with my first semester. I am even more happy because even with missing two weeks of school or more I still passed with straight A's! Well this post is mostly to let you all know that i have created a new blog. Don't worry I still will be using this blog but this one I mad is for crafts that I am selling, so please check it out at theragblankets.blogspot.com. Please feel free to tell anyone. It is mostly baby blankets but once in a while I will add other stuff. I hope you all enjoy. I love you all so much. There may be more coming but not right now. See Ya! :)

Well here we all are. I know you can't see our faces that well and its mostly our feet, but you get the picture. While us three girls were getting just our picture my dad decided to jump in. It was pretty funny. When he was trying to get down he almost fell backwards and if you can't tell there's a waterfall behind us.
My lovely parents whom I love so dearly much.

The one just above pretty much explains this one but if you can't guess I'll go ahead and tell you. When I saw my parents get their picture taken (one above remember), Kylie was standing in front of me so I pulled her onto my lap and the photographer was able to catch it. The funny part is Kylie didn't really know what was going on so its kinda a fake smile. But she still looks beautiful in every single picture and you can't really tell. I love her so much though.

Alright, so there you have it. If I decide to I'll post more later but it takes my computer ten min. just to load 4 of them. Its crazy! But I'm glad I have a computer to communicate with friends and family. I love everyone! Merry Christmas!

Pictures are Coming, the Goose is Getting Fat...

2008-12-09T07:09:00.000-08:00

Don't worry we just had family pictures so they will be coming.

I love you all very much!

-Kyndra

Tada!

2008-11-03T15:15:00.000-08:00

Tada! I posted. You guys all probably hate me. I know its taken me forever but at least im doing it now. No pictures this time but just a little more patient and i promise within a couple of weeks you will be looking at more than just words. Since Kylie moved out i got my room all put together and nice and neat so those will be posted as well. Thanx for being so patient and not much has happened so this is all for now.

Finally!

2008-09-15T18:47:00.000-07:00

It has been forever! It has been so crazy, i still haven't gotten my camera fixed so now pictures, then i have been trying to make up two weeks of work. Ahhh! It is so stressful. But one thing I'm enjoying is i went to a Super Saturday on Sartuday and i started making a really cute blanket. The example they showed was a baby blanket but i wanted a throw size and we actually got the fabric cut too big and now it is going to make a huge blanket. But i have that to work on now. Tomorrow im going to the orthadontist to get my braces tightened for the first time. This weekend im going to California because my aunt and uncle are getting sealed. So really nothing much has happened so that should catch you up for now.

It Was Magic

2008-08-30T08:30:00.000-07:00

I promise it was magic I tell ya. Just like that and the fever is gone. Well any ways let me tell you how it happened. So I went to the dentist on Wednesday and he irrigated the spot that has been bothering me cause there was a piece of skin just flapping and so he sprayed Listerine into eat to clean it out. He thinks it got food in it so it caused an infection which then caused the high fever. I had no other symptoms so I bet that's what it was. Any ways he is having me irrigate it every morning and night and Thursday I started out with no fever and I ended with no fever. I was so happy. The doctor still hasn't gotten all the tests back so we still don't know for sure but then she started me on another medicine cause it obviously wasn't killing whatever it was so now I'm on two. But any ways I'm BETTER. I'm so happy! Plus Kylie's here. So here is my aunts theory of why I was sick. She said I missed my sister so much so i just got sick and they couldn't find out what was wrong but when I heard she was coming then I got better. And it kinda did happen like that cause when we heard Wednesday that they were coming the next day I got better. But I still think it was my teeth. Any who See Ya!

More Blood Work

2008-08-28T17:39:00.000-07:00

Just out of going three times of getting my blood drawn im already used to it. So the people lost one of my blood cultures so we had to go back today and get it done again. It is so crazy. The dentist did more x-rays of my teeth and my orthadontist let my mom take some x-rays from back in June to compare and he said everything looks the same, but there is a little inflimation in my gum in the very back and he checked it out told some tips of what to do then he is sending me to an endodontist so they can check out the root and all that fun stuff. The doctor still does not know what is wrong with me we're still waiting on a couple of tests and going to see the endodontist tomorrow, so we'll see how that goes. If all else fails and im still running a fever by the weekend then she will put me in the hospital so they can do more tests quickly and find out what is wrong so i don't miss any more school. I haven't had any fever today, well the highest its gone so far is 99.2 but to me that's no fever. But hopefully it doesn't spike up again like it did yesterday. Now they have me on two medications so things can be killed and sped up. Anyways I have felt perfectly fine all day so maybe this is the end of the fever i won't have to go to the hospital after all. That's all im hoping for.

12

2008-08-27T14:13:00.000-07:00

This is the number of days i have now had fever. But since around 4 this morning till now I have had no fever, which is a very good thing. Yesterday I went and got more blood work and they got one result back which was negative but still waiting on anouther one. Around 4 today I go to the dentist and they will do some x-rays because I have been having a sore gum in the very back and it's supposed to be my wisdom tooth so it might be abssesed and that might be what is causing the fever. But right now they really don't know. I just wish it would all end and I can get back to a normal life. The good news is Kylie is coming down for the weekend to visit. I'm really excited. For now we wait and run more tests and see if the doctor's can find anything. If not the doctor said if i keep running a really high fever of 103.4 then i have to go to the hospital and there they will do more tests to see if they can find anything. Let's just hope that doesn't happen. Any ways while I sit at home I think of all the school im missing, all the time i don't get to spend with my friends and all the work i get to make up. Not fun. I have probably watched about half the movies we own. I'm not kidding i am so freakin bored. I have been reading though i just finished the last book in a serious that i love by Frewin Jones. Their called The Faerie Path, The Lost Queen, and The Sorceror King. Don't know how i came acrossed it i saw it in a book store one day then checked to see if they had it at my library at school and it took them forever cause i didn't know the spelling of faerie and finally on girl was smart enough to try to spell it a different way and there it was so anyways their really good and their more for teenagers and adults not like little kids. So thats what my life has been like and how its going for now.

Crazy!

2008-08-21T08:36:00.000-07:00

Man this week has been so crazy. We moved Kylie up to Flagstaff on Saturday and i would have taken pictures but my battery was dead. When we got home i let it charge all night but in the morning it still was dead so something is either wrong with the battery or the charger, any ways i can't post any pictures for now. Also Saturday i started running a fever and have been running one for 6 days now. We went in to the doctors on Tuesday and couldn't find anything wrong so they sent me to get some blood drawn. (I have never gotten it drawn before and i was a little scared). Well, all the tests haven't come back yet so I'm just sitting at home missing the whole second week of school and really wishing i could be there cause i will have a ton of make up work to do. Any way i hope every ones week goes well. See ya.

Im still here!

2008-08-11T18:06:00.000-07:00

Yep i know its been a while since i posted but good news kinda, i got braces. They didn't hurt as bad as i thought they would and i only got the top. Wednesday i go back and get the bottom. On top i have black but then I'm gonna get mixed when i get the bottom. Yep it's pretty cool. Also school started as most of you know and I'm pretty excited for the adventure of a new year but they totally messed up my schedule. I am so mad with them right now. And in my Algebra class I'm the only 8th grader and surrounded by 9th graders. I really don't like it at all. It's a little scary so I'm trying to get it all changed. But for now I'll deal with it.

AHHH America!

2008-08-01T10:23:00.000-07:00

Well for those of you who watch the T.V. show "So You Think You Can Dance" you'll hopefully know what I'm talking about when i say AHHH America! How can they think to even see Chelsey as a possibility of voting her off. I was so mad and sad when I heard that she didn't make it to the next rounds. Obviously America doesn't know what a good dancer is cause she was way better than the other two. I don't know it's only my opinion but does anyone agree with me here!

New Shoes

2008-07-31T16:09:00.000-07:00

Sorry it takes me so long to do a new post. But any ways. So everybody likes a cheap new pair of shoes right. Well i got these at D.I.. For those of you who don't know or have never heard of this place its just a thrift store. So anyways befor i left to Snowflake i went shopping with Megan cause she wanted to check a couple of thrift stores. So at D.I. amazingly we found this pair of shoes for $4 and they were my size. It was crazy. They aren't the most comfortable shoes to where but they were practiclly brand new. I was so suprised and she thought they looked really cute on me so she bought them for me. They are awesome. I love them and they are so cute. Thanx again Megan.

Just to Show You how Crazy

2008-07-30T12:49:00.000-07:00

Just to show you how crazy Jace is this is him hanging on to a speed limit sign. Soon my dad had to help him hang on. This is when we met my parents on the way home. We each drove half way. It was so funny. We stayed and talked for about 20 min. and my dad was just playing with Jace the whole time. I had a fun time with them but it was good to come home.

The Chlarson Family

2008-07-30T12:37:00.000-07:00

A couple of weeks ago i was able to spend a whole week with the Chlarson's. For those of you who don't know them they live in Snowflake and they used to live here in our ward and i would babysitt for them all the time. I love them so much and this summer i had the oppurtunity to go up and stay with them so of course i took it. I actually used it as my Divine Nature value project so it all worked out great. I had a blast up there with them. I just love their kids to death. If you keep reading and don't find my blog so boring that you can't stand it anymore than you'll know how much fun i had and get to see pictures of their three adorable kids. Anyways i had fun and am looking foward to seeing them again.

Megan

2008-07-30T10:55:00.001-07:00

This is Megan. In other words, SUPER WOMAN! (I promised Megan that i would post a good picture of us and this is the best one, so if you don't like it too bad Megan).I don't know how she does it every day. She is the best mom and she gives all the love she has to her sweet family. She is the best mom to her kids and no one else can love them like she does. I loved spending a whole week with her she is so much fun. She's like an older sister. It was the best and i am looking forward to going up again next year. I think we are going to make this a yearly thing. I love them so much!

Jace

2008-07-30T10:47:00.000-07:00

Jace is so cute. He just turned five this month and will be starting kindergarten this year. He is always wanting you to play Shrek the game with him. Its a video game that his dad got him and now everybody is sick of it except him. He is so smart and learning something new every day. He is always bouncing around every where. I love him and had so much fun with him.

Connor

2008-07-30T10:41:00.000-07:00

Sorry i didn't get any pictures of him awake. He is turning 3 in October. He still isn't doing well but the doctors are still doing tests and trying to figure out what is wrong. He is walking much better and starting to talk a little more but you just have to give him so much attention. You always have to keep an eye on him and know at all times where he is. You have to have so much patience with him but he is really sweet. He is starting a preschool program this year only a couple hours a week but it will be so good for him. I love him so much.

Kendall

2008-07-30T10:33:00.000-07:00

She is so adorable!

Kendall will be one year in exactly a week from today. She is getting so big but is still so small. I love her to death. She is the sweetest little thing. You just instantly fall in love with her. But even for how young she is she still has got attitude. She is so cute!

More Pictures

2008-07-29T17:17:00.001-07:00

These are just some more pictures up at the cabin. I know i don't have a lot but there was a ton of flowers in the medow.

Excuse Me

2008-07-29T17:14:00.000-07:00

Sorry my sister left me a comment that said i was crazy. I forgot it did rain a lot one day it was just pouring buckets and we had walked to a couple of shops and my mom had to come pick us up. We were going to walk back cause it wasn't raing that bad but it was a good thing she came. But afterwards we got into comfy cloths and ate home made salsa and chips. It was great that day. And also a couple of nights it rained.

How many....

2008-07-26T12:47:00.000-07:00

Sorry i don't have a picture for this one i wish i did it was funny. How many guys does it take to pull a motorcycle out of a ditch? The answer is three. It was so funny the motorcycle died on Sheldon then fell into the ditch. It was so much fun to watch.

Is that a Monkey?

2008-07-26T12:41:00.000-07:00

NO this is Kevin Hale climbing on top of a bar that holds up the swings. I know you can't really see him but you can kinda get the picture it was hilarious. He also came up with us to the cabin. It was a great trip.

Two Weeks Ago

2008-07-26T12:14:00.000-07:00

Yes it was so nice. We got some nice moutain air. We didn't get much rain accept for on the last day as we were driving home. We had a blast. I wish it could be like that everyday down here. It was the BEST. Plus it was my first time going Snipe Hunting. HaHa. it was a blast. I look foward going up again. We stayed in my grandparents cabin up in Pinetop. Kylie wanted to invite a couple of friends for a end of the year graduation type thing. It was CRAZY i tell you. There was five of them. Yep if you can imagine it you can see how crazy it was. But we all had fun.

So Sorry

2008-07-09T21:30:00.000-07:00

Hey everybody sorry i haven't posted in a few days but just wait for more upcoming pictures. We are leaving tomorrow night and going up to my grandparents cabin.

Happy Birthday To Me!

2008-07-04T20:09:00.000-07:00

These were just taken tonight outside of Neilson's Frozen Custard. My family went there tonight and saw Kylie and brought dinner then brought a cake and bought custard to go on top. I was delicious. Anyways Kylie told me there was this really pretty sunset almost outside so I started taking pictures. What a wonderful birthday present God has given to me. For those of you who don't know yes it was my birthday today and I turned 13. Yeah I'm now an official teenager. Woohoo. Anyways i thought it was so beautiful and should post it on my blog so i hope you enjoy it as much as i do. But it is way better to see in person though!

Sunsets

2008-07-04T19:52:00.000-07:00

Sorry I didn't think it would turn out sideways but you get the picture. Anyways I just enjoy the sunsets that we've been getting every night. They are so beautiful and perfect. Heavenly Father truly loved us to give us this beautiful site. Sorry i haven't been blogging very much but i do have more pictures that will get posted.

This is totaly wicked.

2008-07-01T15:29:00.001-07:00

I am extremely excited my birthday is this FRIDAY! I can't wait. It doesn't even feel like it should be here already. I am turning 13. I will finally be a teenager. WOOHOO! It's gonna be awesome.

SO SCARY!

2008-07-01T15:17:00.000-07:00

Sorry I haven't been keeping up to date with this whole blogging thing. But I do have some news. I freaked out. So yesterday while I was doing synchro (at Taylor) I was standing next to my coach and one of the girls listening to a song and I suddenly started feeling really week and needed to sit down but i knew that my coach would probably just tell me to stand up so I tried my best to stay standing. Then all of a sudden everything went black and I just felt extremely week. My coach saw me so she ran over and helped me to sit down then got me some water. I was finally able to stand up and she walked me into the office in the A.C. and sat me down in there. I was so freaked out. Later my friend told me that the coach was saying that I looked really pale. I ended up perfectly fine, I figured that I hadn't drunken enough water. But no matter where you live you always need to drink plenty of water!

2008-06-27T07:36:00.000-07:00

This is my CRAZY sister Kylie. OHH how I'm going to miss her though.

The Wonderful View of Camp!

2008-06-19T15:04:00.000-07:00

These are a couple of pictures I took while we were on our hike at Girl's Camp. It was a blast! This is one of my most favorites parts about camp is the incredible view that we get to enjoy. Here we don't see something like this everyday so I enjoy it while I can. The hike was fun and hard but this part was just amazing.

Hunter

2008-06-04T11:26:00.000-07:00

These are just a couple of pictures of the cutest little girl. Her name is Hunter Hemis. I used to babysit her when they lived down here. She was only about 1and a half years old here and now she is 3. In September of 2006 they moved to Pennsylvania. She is the cutest! My family and I, or most of us, are planning on taking a trip up there this summer. We're still trying to find cheap tickets still. But I hope you enjoy!
