A Thunder god, A weekend with Prophets and Bug Bites

So this week has really been pretty good. ONLY 26 MORE DAYS TILL MY BDAY!  I am pretty excited. On Friday we had Seminary Conf and that was good and then that night I babysat and then went to a party with Sydney and her friend Alec and got like 15 mosquito bites and they are GROSS. Then yesterday I watched Conference all day and read one of Sydneys favorite books called  The Legand of Shannondary
It was a chick filck book but it was good. I cant stand the cover though. SHE DOSNT HAVE PORES. I am not bitter or anything. Its all airbrushing anyway. It was cute. Then after conf Sage Owen, my freshman friend Melanie, Shelby and Carliy came over and we went swimming and watched Thor.
 I liked it but Natalie Portman was the girl love interest and she is SUCH a bad actress. It really was quite pitaful. But other than that it was awesome. Oh and he is gorgeous witch helps the overall movie. It was predictable though and after watching the first 5-10 min I guessed the entire movie and I was almost dead on. It was kind of funny. Anyway today I woke up to my 'Its Raining Men' ringtone on my phone. My friend was calling me for help on homework. She was like ' I thought you would be up cuz you go to church' (she is not a member) and I laughed and said I did but not today.  I like conf but I think I dozed off today. I have loved Pres Monson! He has craked me up this whole time! His little expressions make me laugh! Anyway there is only a week untill October Break and I am SO excited.

Thank Goodness for People that Pay Attention

So yeasterday I got my 3rd letter this week from people that just wanted to tell me that they were thinking about me and that they loved me. These people were obviously listening to the Holy Ghost because that was exactly what I need. Hevenly Father was looking out for me. It was a really nice reassurance that he knows whats going on and knows how I feel. Needless to say I have been writing lots of letters latly to spred the love :)

Red Mountain

So for any of you that I have called to vent or cry to this repeated so there. Red Mountain has been quite the adventure. The 1st three days were not-so-great but I was still ok. Then on Tuesday or Wednesday my choir teacher asked if I wanted to move up to the higher choir (witch I did) and so I went and got my schedule changed. I did not know this but because of this change I switched from 1st Lunch to 2nd Lunch. The only reason I had survived the 1st 4 days had been because I had 1st lunch with all the kids in my ward who go to Red Mountain. But now I had 2nd Lunch and knew no one. The 1st day I just kind of wandered around and then went and sat by this girl sitting alone. The 2nd day I just picked a spot and sat down but then this kid came and sat down and started talking to me about all sorts of stuff. I appreciated the gesture, but no thanks. Then on Friday I sat next to this freshman in my biology class but it was weird and awkward. Friday besides that was actually pretty good and I was able to make conversation with some people. Friday after school I went to Shelby's house and we watched Ever After. I love that movie. " AHHH! there was a bee" and "Cameron is my weakness" haha good times good times. After that I went home and had to babysit and it was then that, I don't know, it sunk in that I had no friends to sit with at lunch and I hadn't seen any of my mountain view friends besides Sydney in super duper long and I felt so lonely and alone. Well I called Sydney S and she said she was over and Sydney Y's house and that I was invited. I was still totally PMSing but I put on my Happy Shirt (Beatles) and my cowboy boots and headed over. I got out of the car and right into Sydney's arms. It was just what I needed. And then Megan gave me a huge hug and told me if I ever needed anything just to give her a call. Again, heaven sent. I was still about to cry though and there were guys there so the girls all went on a walk and I talked to Sydney Y the whole time and it was so nice. I love that girl! I ended up having a ton of fun that night ( minus tons of awkwardness with Derek) and it was just what I needed. I stayed over till 1 watching the Notebook and had so much fun. The next day I did my mountain of Homework and then went over to Sydney S's house and watched The Princess of the Thieves and hung out with Sarah and then we went to Marks house for a little bit. I really super duper want to go to Mountain Veiw! Then I went home and watched Star Trek with dad. On Sunday I sang at a fireside and finally met McKay!! Today was ok and for lunch I just went to the library and did homework witch sounds lame and it is but I got quite a bit done. I know that everything will work out and I am so grateful for Seminary, my ward friends and my insane carpool home!

My Cowboy Boots

I finally got them and the best part is that they are ligit and I didnt have to pay for them! I would also like to thank my Aunt Amy ( if you could pass that on, allie, that would be great) for looking so darn cute in her pair of cowboy boots to let my papa get me some of my own!

Ironically enough I was wareing my cowboyish outfit today anyway. Plop a hat on my and I would be too ligit to quit!

I LOVE them!!!

School has been quite the adventure
After Day ONE of Red Mountain High School I almost started crying and felt invisable all day.
After Day TWO of Red Mountain High School I was feeling better but still didnt really talk to anyone but seminary.
Day THREE of Red  Mountain High School was good because I talked to some people and really honestly had a pretty good day.

Utah, Idaho, Oregon, OH MY!

So here is a hopefully quick recap of the last 3 weeks:
ON monday, July 18 we woke up early and hit the road. We drove untill we got to SLC were we met Grannie-Annie and Grandad and Scott and the Village Inn by the U.


 Then on Tuesday we went to Temple Square and then went to Shannons parents house and met up with Grannie-Annie, Grandad, Scott, Chris, Amy and thier family (excuding scott of course and Allie who was at Girls Camp) and Steve and Shannon. It was so much fun to hang out with everyone and here storys and beat Mathew at pool.. kinda. 
I LOVE this painting The man in the red is Justice the Woman in Blue is Mercy and The man on the ground is all of us



Only in Utah babe, Only in Utah
IF you cant read it the bilbord says
"Your Body Is A Temple
Hydrate it"
Now thats good marketing

On Wednesday we went to This is the Place and then I went and hung out at Amys (Allie still wasnt there) but I had lots of fun with Mathew. Then on Thursday we drove up to Idaho and from then untill August 1st I stayed at my Grandmas house with Laura and her family and Mel and hers. We played lots of games, watched Sherlock (witch is AMAZING btw) and hung out with Keri Beck and had all sorts of fun. I also went to Roaring Springs and stayed with Val for a night and saw Captin America with Val and Lisa. I also watched Iron man with val. Good times. And Lisa took me shopping. :)




My Grandmas House and the Tree House too!

So after Lisa and I went shopping we drove up to McCall and met my family there!
McCall is my most favoritest place in the whole world




After we got back from McCall I got all packed up and on Monday morning, Aug 1st dad and I started to drive to Utah. I got to the Marriot Center 2 hours late and then started EFY!!
I loved EFY! I came alone and it was so much fun! I had tons of fun and grew alot.





 BEST EVER!!!

My Random Update for No Apparent Reason

Heyy! Right now I am in Ontario, OR at my Grandmas house. The weather is lovely in a big way and its great to be with all my family. On the way up here we stopped in SLC for a few days with my other Grandparents. While we were there we went to Temple Square and saw Steve and Shannon and their family and Scott and Amy and Chris and their family. Allie wasnt there but it was fun to chill with Mathew. The next day we went to This is the Place Village and then went and hung out with the Randall's. Then we drove up to OR and then next day I hung out with Keri Beck. She spent the night and then the next day I spent the night at her house. On Sunday I went to 6 hours of church and skipped lunch and on Monday we had the whole family over for family home evening. I have spent lots of time playing games like Ticket to Ride and Stone Age with Melanie and Paul and lots of time talking to my aunts. I love being up here, but I have no interest in ever living here again. I love Mesa and honestly miss it. Anyway being up here is good and I have tons of pictures but cant upload them. lame. I am looking forward to Roaring Springs tomorrow and staying at Vals tomorrow night. I am also excited to go to McCall on Thursday and going to Provo on Sunday. Efy is Mon- Saturday and I am not looking forward to school the next Wednesday. I am scared and worried and am happy I don't have to worry about it right now. I cant wait for November. The weather is always lovely
