What to post...???

Hmmmm, I can't think of anything to post! Other then we have cousins over for 3 days and we have to do chores! Yesterday we also went to the swimming hole. We had lots of fun! The majority of the time was spent waiting for Tanner to catch a fish or for him to give up. Hank had a BLAST!!! Hmmmmmm, anything else? Oh, I almost missed a BIG one! The IDEA portfolio's are due on Tuesday. So it's been kind of CRAZY!!! We have write a bunch of reports and all sorts of other things. And the weather has been BEAUTIFUL! Yesterday the thermometer said it was about 98, and it was only supposed to be 89!! Other then that nothing much as come up...for now!

Fun with our cousins!

Friday night we were able to spend the night at Kristen's house!!! Mom and dad where able to go to SLC!!

On Friday we got to their house at ten(in the morning!) and we played outside all day!! Breck was soooooooooo exited to WIN a rope from Sid the contest was like this: Sid took the "horns" off of the Jake steer(special roping dummy without legs) and told him that if he could rope it 5 times just the horn "spot" then he could have the rope, after about 15 to 20 minutes(maybe longer!) he got it!! He was really exited. Then we roped the Jake steer some more and went and watched a movie and went to bed...Oh, and Casey came over and roped too, I ran the shoots and rode Chex! This happened before all the other "ropin stuff" occurred. While we roped I got sunbrned REALLY bad!

SATURDAY!!! I was invited to go to the ropin school in Hagerman with Sid and Breck! It was so much fun! And Casey even let me warm his horse up!(Thanks Casey!) It was a looongggg day...but fun! I played with "the girls" a lot(Katelyn, Kayla, and Kylee) and Katelyn brought her friend Ariel too! Lots...let me rephrase that...TONS of fun! Besides maybe Kaylyn(sp?), (she didn't turn as many as Breck did though). Other then that Breck(the only kid..and is 8) was the best header(headers rope the head and heelers rope the hind legs) there! Good job Breck he is REALLY good! Kylee ended up coming home with us and Breck ended up with Casey! And when we got back Michelle was at their house!(I act like you know all of these people). And I practiced setting Mate(Mater) up for showmanship! And I put sunscreen on about 10 times...no sunburn from Saturday!

And yes, lots of driving the toro and 4 wheelers! And no...we didn't play rugby. Oh, well. Maybe next time! And Hank had a blast, with Cody and Crash and Miss Foxy Roxy!

Sorry, no pics.

May 14, Sick

May 14,


I can't believe how time can fly! Well, that is...some days, other days just seem to be forever. For example sometimes I am reading a book, thinking I read for like 2 or 3 hours and then I get up and look at the clock and it's only been 30 min!!! Today was one of those LONG Days!! Today it seemed like two hours was 50. I must be my FEVER that makes me go: one minute feels like 5 or 50. So yes I have a fever today...so why not blog???


It was a beautiful day...for a while, then it rained and rained and rained. Just it doesn't go hard it goes in spurts, poring spurts! Baseball was canceled so we took a walk to get the mail. The air smelled so clean and fresh! (I know haw sick I sound!) :) We had a funeral today, and I watched the rest of Cranford...it leaves me wanting to watch Pride and Prejudice or Emma! Maybe tonight, I read a ton in Leven Thumps and there's one more thing I just cant seem to remember what...oh, it was that I FINISHED MY MATH BOOK TODAY!!!! I just have to correct a few papers and then I'm DONE!!! Hurray.


I hope for warm weather tomorrow...we're spending the night at Kristen's!!! Just lately have I learned to drive the toro(think golf cart with big bed) so I'm so exited. We should play whale wars or even more fun then that is...you guessed it...RUGBY!!! Not like serous rugby, it's like basketball with a huge ball and you can tackle others it is a great nighttime game, we need one sometimes. And you get to go to bed with bruises! Well that's all...


One more thing: I love this picture, it's on my mom's blog and I think it's so beautiful, it's just from the google picture search!
Now can't you tell why I think it's so beautiful? I love the bluish mist.

Favorite Scriptures

I stole this idea from my friends blog...again! Her blog site is kaytigrace.blogspot.com for those of you that may want it(yes Kayti, now everybody knows about you). She has some great ideas, that she posts! Well, her latest was posting some of her favorite scriptures on her blog...so here I go!!

Book of Mormon:

1 Nephi 3:7(we are memorizing this one right know!)
And it came to pass that I Nephi, said unto my father: I will go and do the things which the lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he should prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them.

2 Nephi 1:23
Awake my sons; put on the armor of righteousness. Shake off the chains with which ye are bound, and come forth out of obscurity and arise from the dust.

2 Nephi 2: 25
Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy.

2 Nephi 2:27
Wherefore, men are free according to the flesh; and all things are given them which are expedient unto man. And they are free to choose liberty and Eternal life, through the the great Mediator of all men, or to choose captivity and death, according to the captivity and power of the devil; for he seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself.

2 Nephi 32: 3
Angels speak by the power of the Holy Ghost; Wherefore they speak the words of Christ. Wherefore, I said unto you, feast upon the words of Christ; for behold, the words of Christ will tell you all things what ye should do.

Jacob 2:18 But before ye seek for riches seek ye for the kingdom of God

Mosiah 2:17
And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your beings ye are only in the service of your God.Mosiah

Mosiah 5:15
Therefore I would that ye should be steadfast and immovable, always abounding in good works, that Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent, may seal you his, that you may be brought to Heaven, that ye may have everlasting salvation and Eternal life, through the wisdom, and power, and justice, and mercy of hm who created all things, in heaven and in earth, who is God above all. Amen.

All of third Nephi!!!

Moroni 10:5
And by the power of the holy ghost ye may know the truth of all things. And more in Moroni too.

These are just a few, I might post some more in the Bible later. (Yawn)

May 12, Wind, Wind, Wind!!!!

Today, the wind is blowing like crazy. The flowers I planted yesterday are falling over! I think that they'll survive through this wind! The tomato plants are about ready to be transplanted! I can't wait for for the fresh produce that they will yield in the summer. They will be yummy, I hope that they turn out. I don't know what else to "write."

Journal

I've decided that this is going to be my journal. I will still have posts for other things and if it is a journal post I will have a label for it, that says journal. I may use words that you may not think me to use, but after all this is my "personal" writing...just, it's public!!!
