They left me!!!

Sara and her family left to go to D.C. on Wednesday!! They are like my second family! And they left me!!! Now I know how Sara felt when I went on the cruise!!! Go to older posts and you will remember how lonely Sara was when I was gone!! She is leaving a whole entire week and a day!!!!! They are so funny, they all want to by me a souvenir!! ha-ha  I will be busy though! I have been working on a personal progress project. I guess you could say I got a job at the D.I. I'm doing volunteer work so I'm not getting paid. I have gone every day this week and I have to work for ten hours total. I have to go two more days and work for two hours each day. It has been a cool experience! I worked with a girl from Brazil and she had a really strong accent. It was pretty cool. Its the perfect time to do it since we are having harvest break:)

So many things!!!

Oh my goodness! I haven't even posted since school started!! Oh by the way, I love the high school!! Everyone is so fun! They are so enthusiastic! I have had a lot of fun so far! I am sure I will have a lot more fun too.  I love my schedule!! I have an easy class in between all my hard classes. It goes: Speech(hard but fun) choir(easy) algebra(hard) band(easy) and then reading which isn't hard yet, its just annoying. haha So there you have it! hard easy hard easy and annoying! haha Anyways me and Sara where talking about how fast this summer has gone! I had a really fun summer though. I was pretty much always doing something. My brother jade left for his mission at the end of july and we have been able to email him every Monday. That has been really cool for our family.
He is in Linden, Tennessee right now. I know what your thinking...Where the heak is that!!!? It is about 3 hours away from Nashville. He pretty much lives in the woods. haha he lives a little trailer in the middle of nowhere. He hasn't complained at all about anything! he loves it there!! He isn't even homesick at all.....yet:) well I will keep you updated on that! haha seeya!

Time Flies When You're Having Fun!!!

Can you believe that the summer is almost over? I am in total shock, but at the same time, I am incredibly excited. High School is almost beginning, and I can't believe it. I got my braces off today!!!!! My teeth look awesome!!! Thanks to Elison Orthodontics!! After three years of appointments, elastics, headgear(which I never wore), and braces, my teeth are done!!!  

While school is getting closer, I am sad that our summer is almost over. Tehya and I were not able to hang out enough to satisfy us, but it was good. We have had fun together talking about what we are excited for, the new edition to our high school, and who our new friends are going to be.

If you haven't already been to our house this summer, let me give you a tour. We have been redoing our bathrooms since the middle of June, and they are finally done! Our kids bathroom is awesome! And my mom's and dad's is gorgeous!!!

Life is good where I am, and that's all I could ask for. I have a whole year ahead of me. Ballroom, violin, friends, high school, and life in general. I will be better at blogging this school year, and that's a promise:)

Kid-Bathroom

Mom and Dad- Cabinets

Here you are folks. Miss Sara (without braces!!!!!!)

Talk to you all later,

My 4th of July!!!

Wow! I really stink at this!!! I haven't posted forever it seems like!!! Anyways, I hope you all had a great Independence Day!!! Sara and I got to be in the parade for ballroom!!! It was SO hot!!! We walked and danced from Smith Park all the way to Porter park!!! I know it doesn't seem like that far, but when you are running, walking, and dancing ( and throwing candy of course) it feels like forever long!!!! haha That night my family and I went to rodeo. It was really fun! My brother had gone boating with our cousins the entire day until the rodeo!  He was there from six in the morning until about five  in the evening!!!! He was so tired and I have never seen a sunburn worse than his!!! He can barely walk! I feel so bad for him!!!haha So, I hope you all had fun!! See ya'!;)

My Memorial weekend!!!

I hope everyone has had a fun Memorial weekend! My family and I went camping up at Henry's Lake. It was super fun! We had some other family come up too! Me and some of my cousins were going on a four wheeler ride down a dirt rode away from camp. While we were riding I was in the front of everyone. I look up and I saw an elk run across the path!!! It was only about 20 yards away!!! It was kind of scary but really cool at the same time! I'm sorry I didn't get any pics!!! I am really bad at that!! Anyways, I hope you had a good weekend!!!:)

Update on life...

So since I haven't updated in a while, here's a little update. My cousins all came from St. George and I had a ton of fun with them. They came up for my other cousin's open house. But I had stayed up until midnight or later Friday and Saturday. I found out the consequences more harshly than I expected.  I woke up Sunday morning with a super sore throat, coughing like crazy and my head hurt. I thought it had just been from staying up so late. But no, I still have it. And it is THURSDAY!!  Needless to say, I am miserable and sick. I even stayed home today and went to the doctor. Once again go to this post. But I am definitely feeling better. We started school again and I miss the 10:30 sleep in days (My mom probably doesn't:), but I am glad to be back in school. That's all for today. Bye!!

Christmas 2012 (and a happy new year)

So my Christmas went really well! I was super excited to come out to the living room and see all the awesome presents that were waiting for my siblings and I. But first, the dreaded code that Santa puts on our family's presents. This year it was the first letter of our first and middle names in number order (if that made any sense at all :) I got an iPod Nano, leg warmers, Floral pants, a grey sweater,( I think my mom was excited for that because now I don't have to borrow her sweater :), some sweats (YES!!!), my favorite cookies and some other stuff. It was a pretty sweet Christmas. I got J.T. some BB's for his airsoft guns. My dad got me the new Piano Guys CD and I was soooooooo stoked! I am sad that Christmas is over, but I am excited for the new year and a fresh start.

These are called HEAVEN with all caps :) BTW, don't get the fudge if you aren't a dark chocolate person but vanilla is awesome too!!

I love these jeans and how can you not?

I couldn't wait to take it out of the case so this is the picture of the box :)

   I am sad that Christmas is over, but I am excited for the new year and a fresh start.Happy New Year!

Anyways I hope you have an awesome new year!!!!

Random Summer Pics!!!!

So my summer was pretty busy with our annual family trip, reunions, friends, more reunions, and stuff like oh I don't know REUNIONS!!!!! ( Can you tell I had a lot of reunions? :) Enjoy!!!! BTW, picture overload!!

This is a sea lion that we saw in Oregon!!!!  We made a joke that because there were five of them, it was kind of like our family. 

This is a jellyfish that I thought was a lightbulb!!! We all have those moments right?

This is my "sister" Kelli, and this was at girls camp!!! We stayed at West Piney and got to sleep in the lodge one of the nights and it was a lot of fun... partly because we didn't go to bed until 3!!!! Please ignore the girl on the left, she had been hiking all day and only a few can get away with looking good like the girl on the right...like I said, it was about 2 when we took this picture. I was kinda tired!!

My friend Madi did this in my hair!!! How cute huh? Our ward started the trend of braids and buns :)

These next two are of the waterslide my grandparents rented for the day for our Thurgood reunion. I probably went down it 100 times, doing flips constantly!!

This is my cousin Adri and Cambelle. They were born only a couple weeks apart, and are inseparable when they are together.

My cousin Kendalyn, who is a couple years younger the me, but we always have fun together!!

This is THE candy shop in Jackson Hole, WY that i am currently wanting more than ANYTHING!!! Darn that Pucker Powder and fudge!!!

This is Pucker Powder!!

We went mini golfing and took Tehya along with us. That was a fun day!!!

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!!:)

Let me tell you a bit about myself.

I guess I'll start off with my family.I am the youngest of 5 kids. I have 1 sister and 3 brothers.Three of them are married;Kaylee Brody and Corey. So Jade and I are home with my parents. I have 3 nephews and 1 neice. My favorite thing to do is play piano.I think most of you out there know that!:) Anyways, theres a just a little bout me and I hope you like our blog.

This is Gage,my nephew, just goin' with the flow.

Calvin showin' off his piano skills!

Dalton, what a handfull!:)

This is Emery, my niece. She is always smiling( at least when there's a camera around :)

 

Let Me Introduce myself...

Hey this is Sara. Let me tell you a bit about myself...

• I am the oldest of three kids. My siblings are J.T. (11) who is just about the best brother that you could ever ask for, and Cambelle (8) who is the sweetest and, at times, the oddest little sister ever.

• I am in love, excuse me, have a freak obsession, with music. I have been playing the piano since the second grade and have loved? every second of it. Except for all the hard parts :)  I just started the violin this past year and have been singing not so long. But even if I can't carry a tune, I still love it.

• I am going into the eighth grade at the Jr. High along with Tehya. It is going to be different this year because there will be no older kids that I am really good friends with. ( More on that Later) But it will be good!

So that is a bit about me and you will learn a bit more later! Love, Sara!!
