Everything

Wow! I haven't written on here for a while. I guess you guys have a lot to be filled in on! Well, I have finally officially moved to beautifulWashington. I love it here!! My house is pretty nice. It has a nice back room/ sunroom area. I will probably get to turn that into a nice craft area for me to work in. My dad surprised me with a loft bed. I am very excited about it. The loft bed has a desk under it. Cordell's bed is in my room but I don't mind at all. He was super excited about sharing a room with me. He found a stuffed animal of mine that he really likes. The salmon are starting to show up in the creek behind our house. They are huge!!! It is really fun watching them try to swim up stream. School has been really great. I am taking digital photography, health, science, math, social studies, and advanced language arts right now. I really like my digital photography and language arts teacher. I can't wait to see some of you when I visit in a few weeks. Love you all!!! 

Yellowstone

Shortly after we got back from Hawaii my mom, stepdad (Ricky), aunt (Gen), my aunt's boyfriend (Paul) and I went on a camping trip in Yellowstone. We saw lots of really pretty stuff. Unfortunately I ended up very nauseas shortly after we arrived. It was still very fun. 

Hawaii

My grandma took my moms family Hawaii a couple weeks ago!!! It was amazing so pretty!! Our plane there was delayed 10 hours though. 😭 So Sierra, Paloma and I got really comfy in the tiny Boise airport. I never thought you could have fun in an airport, but we managed. My mom came up with a game where the adults go around and take pictures of stuff, then we kids go find where they took them. Then we swap and the kids take the pictures. Then we got just plain bored. Us kids even resorted to pretending to play ping pong. Our first day in Hawaii we hung out at the beach for a while, however our beach day was cut short when I was stung by a small blue jellyfish. It stung really bad. My uncle tried to pee on me to help but I wouldn't let him. Instead we poured vinegar all over it. Within an hour it felt perfectly fine. We found a very small and calm beach that we went to several times. It was really fun there because the kids could actually get in without the fear of being taken down by a wave. My uncle Hyrum decided to give Sierra (10) and Paloma (6) a scare. In the house we rented there was a doll that was meant to look as if it were standing in the corner. Well Hyrum decided to tell them it was possessed.They didn't take that very well and ended up sleeping with him. The doll jokes went on through out the trip. We even had the doll in a family picture. 

Ankle

So I got my cast of Thursday!!!! 😀 He said it is doing really well. I am allowed to walk a tiny bit with my crutches!! I can't wait to see what the doctor says next week! He said i will probably be allowed to walk in a couple weeks without crutches! Wish me luck.

Birthday

Okay so the 22nd of April was my birthday. I turned 13!! It was on a Sunday so we didn't really do anything on my actual birthday. On Friday I had a couple friends sleepover. We didn't really do anything special just had lots of fun!!!!! Then on Saturday night me and my mom's family went to dinner. On my actual birthday we were lazy. It was actually really nice. I suppose you want to know what I got. Well a whole lot of owl stuff!! I got a stuffed animal. A wallet, an owl figurine and a gift card for 25 dollars any where. I also got a shotgun from my dad!!!!!! My mom gave me a bunch of clay stuff and tools for making my little charms. That is pretty much it.

Crafts.

So I made a new friend here in Preston which is nice because now I have someone close by to hang out with. Me and her have been doing quite a few different crafts. First we made hot glue charms which is jut dried hot glue with something in it, like a charm or sticker. They are cooler than they sound though. Them we made button names or initials etc. Now I am making polymer clay charms. I will post pictures for you too see. Emma and I are going to sell the stuff we make!

Cast

Well I am in a cast again. Pretty devastating... At least to me. It is getting better but will take a little longer to heal since they took so long to figure it out. I am very upset about having it for three more weeks because that means I get it off three days after my birthday. It was sort of like the end of the world for a few hours. I was really hoping to be all better by my birthday. But at least I will be better by June. My grandma Martha is taking us all to Hawaii!!!!!!! It will be my first real vacation. I have always wanted to go to Hawaii!! Any ways back on topic. Mrs. Hiener, my art teacher, is painting a Dr. Sues theme on my cast. We are starting with one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish.
Then the lorax and a truffala tree. We already have the blue fish. It is pretty dang awesome. She is really good at painting. It looks just like it.

No cast!

I got my cast off!! It was so weird. The saw he uses can't cut skin. It just tickles when it touches your skin! It was very loud. There was blue dust flying all over the place. I was itchy allover because the dust. My skin is pretty dry. If I rub it a whole bunch of skin comes off! GROSS!! I can move it now!! The doctor even cut around my clouds so as not to harm them. ; ) I still have to use my crutches for two weeks though. But that is okay because I am getting better.

Cast.

So I got my cast. I have to wear it for three weeks. I don't like it very much. Very hard and quite frustrating to bathe with it. Me and my art teacher are going to paint clouds on it since it is blue. I am getting pretty good at using crutches.

Ankle

We found out I tore a ligament in my ankle. LIES!! We were planning on me getting surgery on Monday. But me and my dad wanted to get a second opinion just in case. Well nothing wrong with my ligaments or tendons! The problem is actually my growth plate. What a relief! So here I am non weight bearing for a week until I get my cast on Thursday. I am so bored! I can't do any thing!! When he pushed on my growth plate I just about screamed in agony!! It was fairly obvious that is the problem.

Cupcakes

I made cup cakes! They're pretty dang awesome. I got the idea online! First you make cupcakes! Duh! Then while they are or whenever you want you need to cut mini marshmallows in half the diagonal way. Drop them in a container of colored sugar. Shake it up! The sugar will only stick to the inside where you cut. (these are the petals.) frost the cupcakes after they cool. Place the petals around the cupcake. ( as shown ) place chocolate chips or whatever you want in the middle. Now... You eat them!!!!!

Oops

Okay so it looks like my plan of writing once a week didn't work that well. But I have a lot to say now!

Washington at last!!

We are here!!!!!!! My cousin and my brother were waiting for me!! Yay!!! I am sooooo happy!!! Cordell is adorable!

45th parallel!!

Wow! 45th parallel!! We are at the halfway point between the equator and North Pole! Cool!

No storm!!

We are no longer in that awful storm. Yay!! There isn't as much snow here for sure. We just passed twin falls. So we are still in Idaho. The truck is really loud and i mean REALLY loud. So loud me and my dad have to shout in order to talk to each other. I slept for probably about 30 mins. But who knows. We have only been driving for only around 4 hours. It doesn't feel like it has been that long but at the same time it seems like it should be at least be five hours. The fact that we are still in Idaho really bugs me but oh well.

Oregon!!

Oregon! We are here! We just went over the Oregon Idaho border. Half way there! We stopped for food at a & w. I got a small fry and a root beer float. Yummy!!

Wind

Our first stop was about two hours into the drive. It was so windy and snowy I could hardly walk to bathrooms from the truck. Hopefully we get out of the storm soon.

Navigator

I am the navigator. I have to Make sure we take the right exits. So basically if we get lost it is my fault. But so far so good we are where we should be. When we get to Oregon I can sleep for an hour or two if I want to because we just stay on the same road for about 6 hours straight. Then we take exit 179 and enter Washington! But then we still drive for around 2 hours. I can't wait to see my brother!!!!! 790 miles total.

On our way

Me and my dad are moving to Washington as you know. So we are taking some of our stuff up there today. We have just left Preston with a very large moving truck and a car hitched on back. We were going to leave at 7 o'clock but that is okay. We figure we will get there around 9 o'clock which will be 8 o'clock in Seattle. I am planning on writing every time something significant happens. Or when we enter a different state.

Rabbit

I love my rabbit. I got her in may for my birthday. She is very sweet. Her name is Renae. She is eight months old. She was tiny when I got her. But is pretty big now. I am probably going to make her a larger cage out of a kiddie pool and chicken wire. I love my bunny.

Christmas!

I love Christmas! But this year it was the best and also the worst. Best because my mom and Ricky got married!!! We had so much fun! Worst because everybody on Michelle's side of the family got sick. Even though I was hanging around all these sick people, I only got a small cough for a couple days! Yay! Most people ask what you got for Xmas so I suppose I should tell you. I got an owl blanket, a carrying case for duct tape, duct tape, an owl vase, an art set, a set of 24 sharpies, AN AWESOME CAMERA!, a ginger bread house kit, and some small stocking stuff.
All that stuff was from my mom and Ricky. I got an IPHONE, a quesadilla maker, and some nice drawing pencils from my dad!
I got some jeans and couple shirts from my grandma. I also got a really awesome coat( which I needed ) from her. I got an owl piggy bank from my awesome cousin shelby! Well, of course now I can't remember any thing else! I guess that is my post for the week. Unless I find anything else really awesome to write about.

I'm back!

Hi everybody. I want to start to start writing again. I obviously haven't been on here in a long time, since I was nine. But that is okay, hopefully I can try to write here at least once a week. But I am pretty forgetful. Maybe I will set an alarm or something of the sort to remind myself.
