Day 23

A picture of your favorite book.

It doesn't get better than Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. Ever. Well.. I am a fan of The Very Hungry Catipillar, and Oh My, Oh My Oh Dinosaurs, but this tops the list in my book.

Day 22

A picture of something you wish you were better at.

I wish I was good at Call of Duty. I'm probably the second worst person ever. All I know is I'm better than Sam, and I once had a 4 kill streak. Okay, so this is a total joke. I don't even care that I'm not good at this at all! I'm just so good at Just Dance 2 that it doesn't even matter.

Day 21

A picture of something you wish you could forget.

BRACES. Hated em.

Day 20

A picture of somewhere you'd like to travel.

It'd be super sweet to go to Wimbledon one day. Not gonna lie.

Day 19

A picture of the person who has gotten you through the most.

Every single one of these people got me through junior high. This is my old softball comp team, and we played together for 4 years. All these girls were my best friends and are still like sisters to me. We spent countless hours on that field behind MCJH. I don't even think I could count how many weekends we spent in 100 degree weather together, playin hard but always finding time to goof around. This is a picutre of us right after we won the Clinton Icebreaker right before we split up a coupole years ago. It feels like yesterday. #dcdemiseforlife

Day 18

A picture of your biggest insecurity.














I have no insecurities ;)

Day 17

A picture of something that has impacted your life lately.

The temple is one of my favorite places on earth. This is the DC temple, and its one of my favorites. I guess this is what you get when you blog on Sundays. :) But even just being able to see a temple so close to home is such a blessing. Going there really does make a big difference.

Day 16

A picture of someone who inspires you.

Well since today is the tenth anniversary of 9/11, I thinks it's only fair to say that the first responders to this awful tradgedy sure inspire me. I was only 6 when this happened. I remember it, and how horrible it was, but I don't think I really understood what was really happening. Being older now, I think I get it more. Having a chance to go paint the flag up on the V kind of made me realize that even though this was a horrible thing that happened, theres always some good that can come from it. It just all depends on how you react to the situation. Being able to come together and feel patriotic and really remeber what it means to be an American is one of those.

@blakeallenharms tweet this morning was really great. "Certain days have only as much importance as people give them. But there are days, like today, that have importance forced on them. #9/11"

Day 15

Something you want to do before you die.

I've always wanted to go to Italy. Venice would be ideal, but lets be honest. I'd go anywhere. Ab's parents are there as I type and I asked them to send me a post card, but lets be real. Probably wont happen.

Day 14

A picture of someone you can't imagine your life without.

For some reason my computer won't type below these pictures.. but whatev. Kay well basically life wouldn't be the same without these three little muchkins. I usually refer to them as my "little people" and they are pretty dang great. I waited a long time for these little kiddos to show up, (8 years for my sister and 10 years for my brothers) but it was sure worth it. Sure, they drive me crazy sometimes, but they keep me on my toes and they're usually lots of fun! :) 

Day 13

A picture of your favoite band or artist.

I just really like Lupe Fiasco. The solidifaction of my love for Lupe came last week when I went to his concert. He's a super classy guy and he made standing in the middle of a bunch of drunk, pot smokers for forever totally worth it! (Thats another post for another day.) But he's really cool and I love his music.

Day 12

A picture of something you love.

Well.. yes I just really love Dr Pepper. Like everybody else in this worlds I think I could potentially be addicted but thats debatable! I really want one right now. I also discovered today at Robintinos that it is super good with an orange slice. Who knew? Sounds super weird, but its actually really great! It makes this wonderful creation even better!

Day 11

A picutre of someting you hate.

How bout 3? Yes. These are the three things on this planet I hate more than anything. Period. End of story. No discussion. Always have. Always will. Deal with it.

Day 10

A picture of the person you do the craziest stuff with.

Is this even a question?

Day 9

A picture of what you want to be when you grow up.

To be quite honest with you I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up yet. But I sure do know that when I'm old I want to have visited every baseball field in America. So far I've got two down.. and a lot to go! This picture just happens to be of the one I'm most excited to see. FENWAY!! Red Sox for life.

Day 8

A picture that always makes you laugh.

Do I even need to explain this?

Day 7

A picture of your most treasured item.

Family! Basically this is everybody that I could possibly be related to! Sort of.. This is just a picture of all of us at Bear Lake at the family reunion that we have every other year. Most of these people are my moms cousins and their families but they're all like my imediate family and I love em!

Day 6

A picture of someone you wish you could switch places with for one day.

So.. basically I could be Repunzle for a day. She's just pretty cool and I like Flynn Rider. A lot. Thats all. Oh and the frying pan. Thats cool too. Plus seeing the lights would be fine too. Now thats all.

Day 5

A picture of your favorite memory.

I don't pick favorite memories, but this one is sure up there on the list pretty high! (Plus it's one I have a good picture for.) This would be field day. 9th gade. Towards the end of our water kickball game, home plate was a total mud pit, so as you can imagine, it turned into a total huge mud fight! Great day!

Day 4

Told ya I would be bad at this. Oh well! Today is the day I catch up. I'm totally blaming the fact that I have not been consistent on the fact that I got sick, but whatev.

A picture of your night.

Well, you see my actual night on saturday was spent watching the Broncos game by myself in my basement due to the fact I got the stomach flu that afternoon. Not to mention this was also the last day of summer. But hey, thats life for ya! :) But did go boating all morning and afternoon this these three awesome kids and it was a blast! Honestly, I think in invited probably 6 different girls to come, but everybody was busy. It worked out all right though. Oz, Eth and Ford are all like brothers to me so we had a good time!
Goodbye Summer 2011!

Day 3

A picture of the cast of your favorite TV show.

Theres nothing that never fails to make your day better than watching a good old episode of wipeout! Nothing puts a smile on your face faster than watching someone fall flat on their face. Sure, the episodes are getting a little lame and they should switch up the courses, but it still remains up there on my list of greatest shows ever. Plus one day I'm going to be on it and win a million dollars! No big deal.

when the boys are gone.

Lets be real. Me and salmon (sam) are just chillin at my house. Let me explain to you the state we are in right now. We are both in sweats and sam is wearing fuzzy socks in 100 degree weather. I guess shes kinda cool. No pun intended. Brads and the broken one (Tyler) are both out of town so we are just hangin with Nate. Also Blake is at the concert at Pioneer Park.. hopefully he returns to us in one piece. Hence our decision to not get ready. Sam is on a wedding hangover and I am so past the point of caring after playing tennis in a million degree weather with a coach who knows nothing. Anyways. We will be going bowling..  so I sure hope theyre ready to get their butts kicked! :) Hooray for being weird. I don't wanna care right now.

Day 2

A picture of the person you've been closest to the longest.

This is my uncle Matt. He is one of the greatest people on the face of this planet. He has down syndrom and the heart of a champion. He is my best friend and I love him to death. He tries to be at every one of my tennis matches and softball games. This kid is my biggest fan and he let's me know every day. He's called me his girl since day one and I love him!! 

I HAVE INTERNET!!! slash 30 Days

As of basically 30 seconds ago I have been connected to the outside world! I am no longer Amish, thank you. It's a wonderful feeling! I had a great time just surfing the web. Actually it was great until I  discovered that the Red Sox were half a game behind the Yankees, but thats a whole nother story. Another post for another day. So basically since all I have posted about on this blog has been about my tragic Amish life, I have deciced to switch it up and do one of those 30 day things where you have a list of things to post about for 30 days. At first when everybody started doing them forever ago I thought they were stuper dumb, but whatev. We're just gonna go with it and see how it goes. 5 bucks says I make it to day.. let's go with 4. But we'll see.
So.. Day 1
A picture of yourself with 10 facts about you.

Since I dont really have any pictures of just me on this computer, were gonna go with this one.

1. I'm weird.
2. But really not that weird.
3. I am openly obsessed with lime green and waffles.
4. I have been hit by a deer whilst driving.
5. Some days I secretly wish I was black and could rap.
6. I don't ever proof read any of this.
7. I have the greatest family on the planet!
8. I like twitter better than fb.
9. I can quote Disney movies till I die. And longer.
10. I believe the only way to get out of an awkward situation is to laugh.

Still Amish..

Just in case anyone was wondering, (which is probably no one because no one ever reads this) I'm still Amish. Yes. Still living with no internet. 8 days later. Our box thing that starts with an m that makes our internet work even came today! But of course, my dad is unable to hook it up until tomorrow. Typical. These are the days I sure wish that I was technologically gifted and actually skilled enough to make it work by myself. You would think that I am desperate enough to at least try. Needless to say, I'm not allowed to touch it, due to the fact I'll probably break it. Lets be real here. So here I am, still just using the computer at my work as my only connection to the outside world. Just watch. Next my phone is going to stop working. Knock on wood...

My Life as an Amish Teenager

Yes. I am Amish. But not really because I still wear clothing with buttons and zippers. I currently as of this moment have not had internet for 98 hours and 34 minutes. Ther only reason I am able to share the tragicness of this story with you is because I am employed at a place that allows me to use the internet. Seeing as how there is no at the store and I already vacumed, I have had a few minutes to check out some fb and Twitter. This probably wouldn't be that bad, but I don't have cable either! I've had a great time sitting at my house watching kbyu, qubo and ion telivision. I'm telling ya. Thats some quality television. NOT. My solution to not having cable has always been to watch stuff on Hulu, but since my recent disconection to the outside world I am left entertainmentless. Luckily a new mota-something is supposed to come tomorrow in the mail to restore our service, but the fam doesn't get back till Saturday from Flaming Gourge, so due to my lack of skills with things like that I'll have to wait till then. I guess I'll have to read a book or something. Good thing no one has ever died of boredom. Yet..

My Next Greatest Adventure!

So I've never been big on running 10ks or even 5ks. To my knowledge I've only participated in one in my whole 16 years of existance. BUT. This is different. I have justified that running a 10k is completely acceptable if it requires you to run through mud! Yes, lots and lots of mud!! Crazy? I think so, but I can't help but being totally and completely 100% extatic about it! It's called the Dirty Dash, and its up at Soldier Hallow on September 24th. The layout of the course is conveniently located above. The only people brave enough to do this with me so far are Brads and my cousin Ann. We're still working on getting more people to do it with us. Just check out the video at this website and you will understand why I am so excited! :)

Testing...

So I'm kind of new at this whole blog deal, so give me a while to figure it out. This should be pretty interesting.. hopefully. So feel free to laugh, cry or just make fun of all the crazy, lame and weird things that just so happen to be part of my life. Also, dont count on regular posts, but I will do my best to highlight important events.

Happy reading!
