Christmas was 3 days ago. It was AWESOME!! I got Just Dance 3, candy, perfume, and a hat! Oh! I also got skis and all the gear I need for skiing. I got a three day pass. We go on a ski bus first and then have a lesson, they lunch, and they we get to ski all we want the rest of the day!
For Christmas eve we went to Grandpa Darrells house where we had the traditional chick-fil-a chicken nuggets for dinner. Then we watched the Christmas story. We opened presents halfway through the movie and I got a $35 gift card to American Eagle.
Christmas morning we got up and went to the early church and then went to Grandma's for waffles. Grandma and Grandpa gave me candy, lip stuff, and money for my ski days!
I had a great Christmas and I can't wait for next year!

Holy Cow!
Holy cow it's been forever since I last wrote! And I think it's about time I did. Well, I have been busy these last few months. I went to girls camp, and Eden, school started, first term ended, just went to Park City last weekend, and had a Halloween party.
Lets start with girls camp, shall we? We went to camp Erie up in Camus. It was a stake camp this year. We had a lot of fun and I liked getting to know my new ward. We hiked, played games, and stayed up late. (Of course right?) We also did spiritual things too. Like testimony meeting, reading letters from our parents, and DEAR time. (Daily... something, something... reading.) I had a lot of fun, but I must admit that I like ward camp better.
Eden was a lot of fun. We got there Sunday after noon and played games with all the uncles, aunts and uncles girlfriends. We had a super intense game of volleyball. Then we had dinner and the uncles went home. We stayed with the grandparents and the next day I went home, got a friend, and came back in time to swim and play games with her. Then we spent another night and the next day went home.
School. It's been fun. I guess. My teachers are stricter than last year, and assignments are harder but that's just what happens. It's good, I got mostly all A's this first term. So far so good!
Park city was so much fun. Saturday morning we got up early and drove there. Then went to the outlets where I bought new boots and sweats. Then we went to the hotel. When we got there we swam, and played board games. The next day we had to be out by 11 so we packed and left. We went to main street where I bought a robot painted onto a domino. So cool! Then we went and visited the shoe tree and left 3 shoes. Then we went home and watched survivor, amazing race, and once upon a time.
I've had fun lately, but I really need to keep up on my posts!

The Secret Garden
I'm in the play 'The Secret Garden.' It's about a little girl who's family dies and she goes to live with her uncle and changes his life and a few other peoples lives! I deffinately recomend this play! It's the 12th of July through the 18th. Tickets are $6 per person. Or if you call 801-451-0953 you might be able to get them for $5. It's worth a shot! The play is at woodland park and starts at 7:30. It's located at 300 south 200 east Farmington Utah. If you come you'll want to wear bug spray, bring a lawn chair or blanket, and some snacks! or they are selling popcorn, drinks, and candy for $1. If you come try to get there early so you can get a good parking place and a good seat. I can't wait for you to come see it!

Youth Voices on the Mormon Channel
A couple months ago I had tried out for a radio station called youth voices on the Mormon Channel. A few weeks ago I got a call saying that I would be part of a discussion at the conference center.
When I got to the conference center I waited about 45 minutes for the rest of the kids to show up. When they did the people in charge took us all into a little room with a lot of equipment.
They gave us some headphones so we could hear another girl in California. We all had our notes and the discussion went about two hours. I had a lot of fun and hope that they call me back to do it again.

Summer!
Yay! We only have 10 days until school's out for summer!!!! (not including weekends of course)
I'm super excited! This summer I plan to go swimming, sleep in, go hiking, biking, playing/hanging out (whichever you prefer) with my friends and obviously so much more!
All I have to say is that on the last day of school, this will be me! flailing arms and all!

OUR CRUISE!!!
Sorry, it's been a few weeks but, as I mentioned in one of my previous blogs, I said that my family and I were going on a cruise over spring break! Well, unfortunately spring break is over.
We woke up around 5 in the morning and got to the airport around 6:45 where we waited for my grandma, grandpa, aunts, and uncles. Then we waited some more until we could get onto the plane around 8. Around 9:45 we arrived in L.A! My first plane ride! It was super fun!
We first ate at the buffet, and then almost every night we ate at a restaurant! We had tons of fun! After eating we would usually go to a show, which most of them were pretty good. They had comedians, magicians, and gymnastics! After the show we would go to the buffet and have hot chocolate and play cards.
Our first port was Cabo San Lucas! We walked around and shopped. I held an iguana named Pueblo!
I also took a picture with a scary pirate painted gold! (You can't tell, but he was a real person!) I bought a charm for my necklace, a toy dragon, and a box for my friend! (It was cool, don't worry!) We also were at Cabo for our second day. That day we went to the beach where I bought some bracelets! (hand-made of course) We all got extremely sunburned even though we had tons of sunscreen on!
One of the best meals was breakfast! (besides lunch and dinner of course) I think I gained about 5 pounds!
The pool was awesome! We had a live band most of the time, it was way too loud! Fun though, right? I, being a teenager, liked it! Most of the adults, being, well, adults, thought it could have been less loud.
We all spent most of the sea days lying around, sleeping, reading, and tanning. Of course, we also ate as much ice cream as we could!
Our third port was puerto vallarta! My parents and brothers went on a pirate ship to a private beach! They had a pirate show, and went on a banana boat! I, on the other hand, went with my aunt and uncles to a little village. We got on jeeps and rode into the jungle! where we rode mules and then.... ZIP LINED! We did 8 zip lines and 2 repels! We had tons of fun zip lining! We quickly got the hang of it! My favorite zip was the one where we zipped right into the water! I definitely recommend it if you ever get the chance! I definitely had fun spending time with my aunt and uncles! Well, I can cross that one off my list of things to do before I die!
One of the best parts was finding an animal on the bed in our cabin when we got back from our fun day! We had a monkey, bunny, swans, and a dog!
At the end, we were all tired and ready to go home. (even though no one would admit it) We were waiting in the airport and guess who was there? JIMMER! What an end to the vacation! I definitely had fun and can't wait for our next family trip!

Latest on ME!
I haven't blogged for a while! sorry! I've been preoccupied with family, friends, and school! Well, lets give the latest on me! I almost have straight A's! (so close!) My parents just bought new car because my dad NEEDED a new one! They bought a black Hyundai Sonata! It has that new car smell! Who's excited for summer? I AM! I AM! I can't wait for sleeping in, staying up late, swimming, vacation, and especially NO SCHOOL! Don't get me wrong I (sorta) like school, it's just that to me 10 months and 4 days of school is just too much sometimes! I definitely feel for all the teachers! How horrible! Sometimes I wonder if I really want to be a teacher when I grow up! Anyway, its just nice to have a long break!
Over spring break My family and I are going on a cruise! I have over $150 saved up for it! My parent's said that we could go swimming with dolphins, turtles, or something like that! I wonder how many times a day I say that I'm so excited for the cruise!

Then I said "Riley where did you get that?" He then tells me to answer it. I look at the caller Id and it's my mom's number!
I answer it and my mom says "I guess I left my phone there"
Then I say "Well how are you calling me?"
