Are we Cheating


Ok, so here is my beautiful family, and today we are celebrating Christmas. Everyone is coming
over and opening presents. So you tell me is that cheating? But wait we do kind of have a good reason. For real Christmas we travel to Helena and stay we my aunt Kim. The whole family comes and it would be a hassle to bring all of our families presents too. No matter if were cheaters I still can't wait for this afternoon to see the overflowing Christmas tree who looks as if he had eating to much. But there is still a little guilt in my Christmas spirit. I only have one regret, my sister Amber and that wonderful, missable family won't be able to be here. But I admire the work they are doing for God's kingdom. I love them and miss them in this season of togetherness. Anyway love and hope everyone reading is having a joyous holiday season.

Me on my Brithday!!
Christel and Emily eating at Jakers for my B-day.

So my Birthday was a great day! We at lunch at the best restaurant in town and then had a party. Christel was the host and all of my friends were there. We played games and one of the best games Fugitive. We made it up ( I think ) two to three people run across town to a selected point and try not to get caught by the cops, or the other players in cars. It quite hard and extremely exciting. Plus the night before, after Gen Church alot of people all went to Applebees and they sang to me. It was bunches of fun!

Fun in the Sun!!!

Sweet van in Fort Benton parade.
Pretty fireworks at dark.
Finale.
Me and Tabitha at camp.
So, sorry I haven't blogged in a while, I have been gone for the last week. First I went to Summer Celebration in Fort Benton. It was so fun. My cousin came down from Oregon and I got to bring another friend, Kayla. We all hung out with a long time family friend's kids. We drove into town right as the parade started and caught it right in time. Then I remembered I had my camera so I shot some pictures of the cool bug. Later that day we went swimming, then walked around not all that big Fort Benton, we got ice cream and had a blast. Time pasted by and then the bands started playing, we danced and had a great time. Then when it gets dark and the sound of the first firework sounds everyone sits along the river. The qualified people make a beautiful display of fireworks off the bridge.
We came back and that day went right off t0 camp FUEGO! Our church goes every year to a camp up in hungry horse. It was the best, funnest, god filling, and tiring time at camp. We did so much. Like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. (yumm) Also fun and really gross games, one of them was a paint ball game where you dip marshmallows in ranch, mustard, and ketchup and throw them at each other. Another was eating a can of spam and chugging a can of pop. (yelch) Also a game where you have a goal and a ball, you can tackle anyone just get the ball in the goal. I was playing and guarding the goal (because I wasn't about to get tackled) and a kid with the ball was running at our goal extremely fast, and I stuck my leg out. The kid tripped like two feet from out goal and didn't get a point. So I guess I took one for the team, but he was going too fast and my leg had a lump about the size of baseball. I went to see the nurse, she gave me ice and back out there I went. We went to the Big Sky Water Park and Lake Five. Plus the worship was awesome, we jumped and spinned and rose our hands until all hours in the night. I got filled up and prayed for what I needed, a special hug from God. So I'm tuckered out and ready for a long night of sleep. Talk to you later.

Fun In Oregon


So, along with being with my cousin, we had lots of fun. We also went to the mall in Missoula, it was fun, as you can see. We got geleto (a smooth Italian Ice cream) that was delicious and took pictures of myself in the mirror. What? you ask is up with the viking hat, well the vikings are the mascot of the high school my cousin Josh graduated from. Ooohhh! I also got my favorite ice cream! Cold Stone Creamery, I love it! (and that is usually the size I get) You see the sizes they have are Like It, Love It, and Got to Have It. So I got my fix.

Road Trip!!!!

So here I am. Far away in Oregon with my beautiful cousin Valen. Me and my grandma, aunt, and mom drove all the way here, it took almost 15 hours. But we got to eat at Red Lobster it was shriplishious! We stayed in Madras for a night and then drove the longest road ever. I seemed like it went on for miles, especially because we were driving 55 mph the whole way. I guess I should say congrats to Josh, we did come here for his graduation. So congrats. I will have more pictures later.

Happy Fathers Day!

Father's day is coming, so this is my father and I love him! He loves to be with the little grandchildren and loves to watch them grow. To me, my father is a very smart respectable man. Whenever I came with a question he usually always has an answer. Through the sad, happy, and difficult times he is still my dad and no matter what I love him. So to all the hard working, loving Dads Happy Father's Day.

I love them!




So here they are, the cutest boys in my life!! I love them and miss them.
See these two are my sister Amber's sons. Her and her husband Dan live far away in Kosova. So I don't get to see them that often, but I love them. The biggest is Judah the smartest two year old I've ever met, and his younger brother is a little, old man. Caleb always looks at you that like an old man , so grown up. Anyway I guess I'm telling you about them because I miss them to much and love them always.

Happy Birthday!!!!


Happy Birthday Emily!
I would love to wish a happy 1st birthday to my precious niece who just had her birthday on May 15th. She is so smart, she talks nonstop and can pick up any sign language word, like "please or more", all this of course for when she eats, and uses manners. She walks everywhere and loves the outside. On her birthday she loved the hippo cake I made for her and got her own cupcake to devour or just spread all over herself. She was also overwhelmed with love from her family and the kids who loved to play with her new presents. So with all my love I wish her a wonderful happy birthday!

Spidey #3


GO Spider man!!!! On Tuesday our churches worship team decided to go see Spider man 3, and we were almost the only people there. I would have to say Spidey is on of my favorite superheroes, him along with Batman. The funny thing about this movie is Peter Parker became cool and emo, {I hate that word} and I liked Venom. Although they didn't show his face enough, but altogether the movie was fantastic. I was telling my sister that most of the time on a sequence of movies, number one is really good so they decide to make another. Then the second is ok it is not as good as the first one though, and then the third one is crazy. It is where they just through everything in it. Like Jurassic Park, the 1st one was great, 2nd one was not so good, and the third was just a combination of everything and more. One of the only movies that wasn't like that was The Pirates of the Caribbean. That is probably my favorite movie and I am extremely excited to see the third one. May 25 is when it comes out. I will be there for sure!

Movie Night

This Friday was a girls sleepover at my house. We watched 2 thrillers ''The Sixth Sense'' and "When a Stranger Calls", both were great. See I can't watch horror films because they are just to scary, I would have nightmares. So suspense thrillers are not so bad. We also had pizza! Yummmm... Anyway I would say the party was a success.
Speaking of movies I can't wait to see Spider Man 3, I'm going to it on Tuesday!

Hide & Seek


The classic game of Hide and Seek, {in my opinion on of the funnest games ever}but in the dark! On Friday night my two girlfriends and I had a sleepover, and we waited until it got dark and cracked our glow sticks. We all got our warm clothes on and went outside. Their brothers also agreed to play with us, so we spilt up into teams. Now with many kids sneaking around in the neighborhood we all had to be quiet, which seemed to be hard for them. As we walk through the streets I try to keep my team quiet. Their brothers finally caught us, along with her parents who told us to come inside, which was OK because we settled in and plugged in a movie. Don't think I need to explain the rest. ZZZzzzzz.......

Fun in the Sun!

Me and some friends from church played volleyball all weekend. And I only wish we are as good as those girls on the left. Although we played in a backyard, on grass, and on an extremely hot day. I got so burnt I had a line on my nose where my sunglasses sat. But I am excited that my burn is going to turn into a tan soon! We had a Blast!
