School! School! School!

I have not had any time to update my blog because it seems like all I do is school work. It has been so much more stressful in 6th grade than it was in 5th grade. A few of my teachers are very strict, but, some are very nice. Math has been hard but my teacher is very nice. My science teacher is VERY strict. I really like my Language Arts teacher. She is from Salt Lake and my parents talked to her at open house about Utah and me being born there. I like to put "Go BYU!" on my papers to see what she says. She says it right back to me too. The worst thing about school is that I don't get home until 4:45, so, there is not much time left in the day.

The last time I did a post we were going to go to Disney World. We got to go and it was so great. The lines were so short. It did rain, but, we got to do almost everything we wanted to before it started. We got through everything before 2:00 and came home and played with our friends.




Tyler, Carter, and I in front of Cinderella's Carousel. We couldn't get the sword out of the stone.











Happy Birthday Tyler!! Tyler turned 9 on Tuesday. He had his Cub Scouts pack meeting that night, but, I think he had a good day. My mom checked him out of school and took him to lunch.








Our New Entryway!! Some of the women in our church have started a decorating group. They asked my mom if they could do our entryway. So, they came on Friday, (while I was at school) and painted and "decorated" it. The cabinet was my great grandparents and the picture is of the Smokey Mountains in Tennessee and was painted by my great grandmother. They put other things on the walls and it looks so cool. It was a big surprise to come home and find it all finished!! Thank you Sister Doodle.
That is just a little bit of what is going on in my world. I am ready to start another crazy week of homework. We had a fun Activity Days activity last week where we had a "Modesty Fashion Show". I will have to find the pictures and post them, we will see. Thank you for all you comments and I love you!!

Disney World, here we come!!

It has been too long since we have been to Disney. We were so "blessed" (as my mom would say) to have season passes to Disney World. Our summer block out dates have ended and we are going to go back tomorrow. I am so excited. We have had so much fun going with friends and family this past year.



Tyler, Carter and I in May-before I got my contacts!! Yea!!

Summer is Over!! School has begun!!

It's official, summer vacation is over. I had a fun summer hanging out with my family and friends, going to the pool, the beach, sleeping in, spending time with Aunts, Uncles and cousins!!








6th grade has finally begun. This is a picture of me, Hannah and Marissa on our way to school. I was a little nervous, but, it made it so much easier going with friends. I also found that I have a few friends in each one of my classes.

Tennessee

The week before school started our family went up to Tennessee! We had a wonderful time!! We went to see my mom's family. It was fun to meet some of her aunts, uncle, and cousins. It was fun playing with their children. Nana came with us and my Aunt Whitney and Uncle Steve met us there. On the first day, we went to the Smoky Mountains. It was beautiful and so much fun.

I fell in the water and was the only one that did not have my bathing suit or change of clothes. I survived!!
