Cross Country Part 2

A little bit more on the cross country.... Let me tell ya, I have so many great relationships with people I didn't even know existed :) Six of the best friends from X-C are Shay-Shay, who is the coolest chick named Shaylee. Ash, who is super awesome and always has a good light about her!! Lindsey Loohoo, who is a sixth grader, but I love her sooooooooooo much!!! She calls me Sara Baby, it started at one of our meets and I love it. Megan, who I call Megie and she is the cutest little thing ever! Hannah, who even though she had a calf injury, she wanted to run soooooooooooo bad!! I love that she tried so hard. Hannah 2 who is ALSO injured on her foot. I love these girls, and I am so grateful that they push me to do my best every week. Love you girls!!!! by the way, don't have pics of Shay, Ash, or either of our Hannahs, I'll get some!!!

And this was our promise:

We have spud harvest in a week!!!! It came so fast!!!!!! My family and I are goin on a cruise!!!! I am soooo excited!!!! Some exursions are Haiti and Jamaica. We are going to swim with and feed sting rays!!! I had a dream that we went on the cruise and and it was a little boat and there was really Nothing to do. I know it won't be like that though. I will post tons of pics for you.;)

Yeah!!..... Ewwwwww!!!

YEAH WE WON!!!!!!!! Our team did AWESOME at homecoming!!!! I went to the game last night with one of my cousins that goes to Madison. We had tons of fun. I cheered, yelled, and screamed until I didn't have a voice. We played Marsh Valley and we won! Then today I woke up to my mom saying Tehya it's time to get up and butcher chickens. We butchered exactly 100 chickens!!!!!! It took forever.We did like 60 today and 40 yesterday. It's quite the job. It goes faster with lots of people though. WOW!! What a weekend!!:)

Cross-Country

Soooooooo... Yes, it's true. I am on the cross country team at my school. And let me tell you, if you have ever thought about it, DO IT!!!!! I have had experiences that have absolutely changed my thinking about running. A year ago, when I started running track with Tehya, I wasn't very good. Ok, I guess I didn't try very hard to get it, but I thought " At least I am trying."I ran the 100m dash, 400m run (that was towards the end), and 100m relay with my friends. So during the summer, my mom took me and my siblings to the track at least twice a week. I would run my 100 and my 400 and I would work until I cried.( Seriously, I cried couple of times :) But it was totally worth because one day, I was running and I saw the high school's X-country team finishing their practice. I finished running and I see the head coach walking over. He got over to us and said to me and my brother " You want to do cross country?" Of course J.T. did because he had been talking about it before and had worked really hard over the summer for it. I was more...shrug. Didn't know how much I wanted to do it. But we gave him our names and phone number and couple days later we got a call from my friend's dad and my track coach asking us if we were still planning on doing cross country. So that settled it. I had to do it, and I wanted to cry the minute it happened, but it happened. My first meet was at West J and it was 83 degrees outside and it was dusty and sandy. ( Can you tell I was kind of mad and really, REALLY scared?) I told my mom that I didn't want to do it and she just kept saying that I could do it. ( I am so glad I have a mom like her to tell me that I can do it even when I want to die!) So I almost cried when I started. The gun goes off and I go. Thinking in my head "I am going to die!" Of course because I am a baby, I walked. Such a baby! But I came in strong and felt sick to my stomach. People kept telling me good job, and I just nodded. I drank soooooooo much water!!! But I was so proud that I finished something that a year before, I laughed at doing. Then every week after that I got stronger. Then 1 week ago, I ran in I.F. at the annual Tiger-Grizz run. My goal that day was to not walk at all. I ran with another girl from my team and she and I didn't walk at all. I was so happy with myself. It was nice to have my family, Tehya, and my other friends there at the end cheering or me. Yesterday I ran at Rigby Lake and didn't walk there either. It was so worth it after that because we got to swim afterwards. It was awesome!!!! One more meet and I will be finished. So I get some pics at my next meet and get the pics from my mom! Love ya!
