Almost There

2009-06-26T14:10:00.000-07:00

I am almost finished with the song River Flows In You by playing it on the piano. It was really hard to learn. I know it up to 2:16. I played it for my friend and now she has it on her Ipod. I'll play it in Utah.

TAN Festival!

2009-06-08T20:06:00.000-07:00

Tomorrow is my big 6th grade project called TAN Festival ( Then and Now Festival). It is where you pick a country and do projects on it. I did India with my partner so we did a modern and ancient flag, modern and ancient map, modern and ancient timeline, and a travel book. There was also additional projects so we did Ancient India costumes and a sculpture of the Taj Mahal out of toothpicks. It is so cool but all the work was very hard and tiring. There will be pictures on my mom's blog probably tomorrow.

Playlist

2009-05-05T19:04:00.000-07:00

I decided to add a playlist to my blog with all my favorite songs. I put the song River Flows In You because I have learned to play half of it.

Getting Back From Astrocamp

2009-03-23T17:09:00.000-07:00

I am the girl with the blue backpack.

Me in my Astrocamp sweater!

The Astrocamp bus was so much fun on the way back. Everyone had the wonderful idea of being able to see their family after 3 days of not seeing them. We watched a movie, talked, and looked for weird billboards. When the buses arrived all the parents were as excited as the kids. It took a couple minutes to find my parents, but it was a happy moment when I did. that night I talked about all of the fun at Astrocamp (coming soon). It is an experience I will never forget.

ASTROCAMP!

2009-03-06T18:42:00.000-08:00

I went to astrocamp last week! kids that did well in school were able to have the choice to go to a space camp called astrocamp. we learned about ea lot of things and did a lot of cool stuff! i just got the pictures today, so i will probably either post them tonight or tommorrow.

dog show!

2009-01-18T14:56:00.000-08:00

we went to a dog show today to see the king charles! they were so cute. we saw so many dogs that were bigger then seth! it was so much fun. there were a few poodles (that had the weird cuts),german shepard's, bulldogs, golden retrievers, and pomeranians. it is an experience i will not forget. on our way out my mom say fresh kettle corn. of course she couldn't resist so she bought an extra large bag. it is almost as big as seth! but also it is her birthday so that was her b-day present for the afternoon.

Winter Break

2009-01-06T19:53:00.000-08:00

I had so much fun in Utah. i was able to go sledding three times, see my cousins (especially Jack), and see grandparents. i got inkheart and inkspell, which i am loving (thanks gma and gpa Brodine!)and also received inkdeath (thanks to gma and gpa Strong). i already finished inkheart and started inkspell. after those i will read the books Ava got me. i had so much fun playing in the snow and i can not wait until i see snow again. i can not wait to see everyone this coming year. new years eve was a long night for me. my family did poppers at 9:00 p.m. and played a couple games. we started watching a movie at around 11:00 p.m. and around 11:40 Seth was too tired to stay up. soon it was me and my dad downstairs. i barely made it to midnight because of my long days before. that saturday my family went to disneyland. my dad had said we would go see the holiday fireworks and that was the second to last day. i was not crowded and we all had a lot of fun. the fireworks were amazing, as usual. i was sad to go back to school on monday, but i finally got to see my friends after two weeks of not having a lot of contact.

Funny Pictures

2008-11-06T19:21:00.000-08:00

Soccer season

2008-09-21T21:00:00.001-07:00

I'm # 11
Chatting away during the game

Soccer season has started. We both have fun teams. We both have good friends on our team. My team is called the supernova's and Seth's are the Super Mario Bros. Notice his uniform matches mario and luigi colors. My team color is blue, my favorite!

Disneyland in August

2008-08-16T20:32:00.000-07:00

We normally don't go to Disneyland in August because we think it will be crowded, but it was my friend's birthday and we upgraded our passes to be able to go in the summer. So we headed down to Disneyland to spend 2 days. We finally tried Nemo because it was less than an hour AND Seth said he would try it! He loved it! We had a great day and were surprised at how short the lines were. Our dad came and met us for dinner at Cafe Orleans. We had never eaten there but we knew they had the Monte Cristo sandwich, my mom's favorite!!! They also had french fries YUM!! The next day was hot but it didn't slow us down. We hit all our favorite rides and even tried the new Toy Story Mania! FUN!!! My mom and I also went on the ferris wheel and picked the swinging car. I thought we were going to go upside down and freaked out. We were so tired by the end of the day, our feet hurt and we were ready to get home! Seth said, "my feet don't hurt!" It makes a big difference when you get to ride in the stroller most of the day. We can't wait to go again in October.

What a catch!

2008-08-14T00:00:00.000-07:00

Seth saw a guy in our ward catch a lizard with some long grass when we went hiking a few months ago. He saw a lizard on our back wall the next week and was determined to catch one. We got out the dental floss and made a slip knot. But we never saw a lizard at the right time and so the dental floss was left on the counter for a few weeks. Then on the last day of school we were going to get in the car and a lizard was hanging out by the garage door. I was afraid I would run over it when it ran under my car, so the kids watched as I backed out to make sure he didn't dart in front of the wheels. The lizard wasn't very afraid of us, so I ran in and got the "leash". Seth was so proud and wanted to keep it. I told him he had a family and they would miss him :) The second picture is of a smaller lizard also hanging out by our garage, he was easier to catch, so Seth just picked him up! Seth the lizard catcher!

5th Grade Outdoor Ed!!!!!!!!!!!!

2008-05-01T21:19:00.001-07:00

Outdoor Ed was so fun! We learned about many things and I got a lot of good pictures of the campus and plants on our hikes. On Monday we saw animal furs and played lots of fun games. Tuesday we went on a solo night hike and did 2 minutes walking alone. Wednesday we went swimming and played 3 games. We also had a cool firefighter presentation and made s'mores! Yum! I ate everything separate :)! Thursday we went on a 7 hour hike and saw lots of cool plants and animals. We also saw rivers, creeks and a lot of cool places. Friday we packed up and went to the beach. There we played a couple games and learned about birds hibernating and fish migrating. My counselors name was Charlotte, so we called our group Charlotte's Web. Our big groups name was Wonder Women, because we were the only all girl group! The people in my dorm room was Anna, Victoria, Charlotte and me. Morgan slept across the hall from me. Charlotte got sick Wednesday morning and had to go home, but came back Thursday night. It was fun to be home and to see everyone again. We went to Cheesecake Factory after school and I stuffed myself with bread and french fries :) I was happy to sleep in my own bed again!

I Am So Proud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2008-04-02T20:39:00.000-07:00

Guess who finally tried a brand new ride. SETH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The ride that he tried was................

ALICE IN WONDERLAND. He was a little scared at first, but now it's his favorite ride. He kept asking to go on it all day long. His favorite part of it was going on a little outside leaf ramp to get down. It used to be my favorite ride too! I went on it seven times the first day I went on it. Also, my favorite part was and still is the ramp too! Of course, he had to get a video game to go on it. He actually decided that he would rather rent a game then by one! That is a good start. Anyway, GOOD JOB SETH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Last One :(

2008-02-12T19:40:00.001-08:00

Last Saturday was the Father Daughter Dance. It was a 60s theme. Sadly it was my last one. My dad and I decided to get a limo! We invited everyone I am good friends with, and it turned out fine. We got a Humer limo and everyone was very excited. After it was over,we were all sad. It was fun while it lasted. :(

My First Basketball Game!

2008-01-14T20:40:00.000-08:00

I jumped really high on my toy and jumped really high to make a basket!!!!!!!!!!!!

Couple days ago Seth had his first basketball game. He warmed up for it by playing with one of his B-day toys. I guess it worked because he made a shot!!!!!!!!! I wasn't there to see it, but I heard it was really great. GO WOLVORINES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's the name of his team.
