My life is Amazing! :)

So much has happened since I last blogged and there really is no way I could cover it all but I’m gonna try :)

I am a SENIOR! Yes I know it’s crazy I can barely believe it myself. I am having a great time and loving every minute of my year…so far :) I can’t believe that I’m graduating in like 6 months but I definitely couldn’t be happier. I’m so excited to start my life and enjoy being independent.

Another major thing in my life right now is my boyfriend Bryan Vanderwoude he really is my life and means so much to me. I don’t know what I’d do without him. He is the one guy that can annoy me so much and then make me so happy in the same time. I want to punch him the majority of the time but I love him anyway :) I am so glad that I met him and that he is a part of my life! He makes me so happy and I can’t imagine my life without him. Like all relationships we have had our ups and downs but he knows how to deal with me when I’m being difficult or when I’m just being a bitch lol I love him so much for not giving up on me. I love you baby 9/10/11 ♥♥♥

There really isn't much else to say but i just want to tell my friends, family, and boyfriend that i am so thankful for each and everyone of you and i am so glad you guys are in my life :) Love you all ♥

Random Picture Day!

Yesterday Mari, Jakima, and I decided to take some pictures! We had alot of  fun and got into some really dirty situations. But all in all we had a blast!!! Although Jakima did not want to be in the pictures she was our lovely photographer along with me taking Mari's pictures and both of them taking mine. Here are some of our pictures. Tell me what you think!

A special thanks to Mari and Jakima for putting up with my demanding ways lol. I love you guys and do not know what i would do without your friendships.

My New Niece is Finally Here :)

My new niece is Finally here! :) Her name is Brooke Jane Lanier. She was 8lbs 6 oz and 21 inches long.
On April 6th 2011 me and my mom went down to Parowan to spend time with my sister. I got to see brodie and spend a lot of time with my family. On the morning of the 8th Amanda had Brooke. She was born using a planned cesarean. It went by super fast and she was born at 7:15 a.m She is so cute and has the chubbiest cheeks ever! I am so happy to be an aunt to not only her but two very handsome little boys Brodie and Caden. Amanda is the mother to both Brooke and Brodie. Randi is the mother to Caden :)

Here are some pictures of Brooke and the Family.

2. I took notes in first hour.
3. updated the love of my existance aka the baseball webpage in second hour.
4. Did some easy math problems in third hour.
5. Well English was...Well English, So it sucked but oh well. We did pretty much nothing but i learned a new word today...EFFETE...It's pretty cool my teacher says it means gay but im not sure she really knows what she is talking about lol.
6. I went and had lunch in the FCCLA room which was kinda lame. Although it was funny watching guys try to get oreos in their mouths, (It is a test for the Preference Boys lol)
7. After Lunch i went to College History, we actually didn't take many notes today so that was slightly less suckish :)
8. Then i had my free hour. I checked out a new book. It's really good its called number the stars by louis Lowry. It's a must read!
9. Then came Chemistry which was alright until i learned we had to mix everything i hate into one problem. Let's just say in my head i was writing death threats for Mr. Peterson lol
10. Then i came home and sat on Facebook, then i decided to go help with the preference decorations with Marikins.
11. We helped write reeds name, make a t-shirt for fernando (it was awesome) We also were Nic's back up escorts :) We got to touch his abnormally large biceps hehe ;)
12. Then we went and got cheese sticks which may have been the highlight of my life. Ya i know its emberassing, dont judge me.
13. After thatMe, Mari, Randi, and her dad went for a short walk to the park and back.
14. When i got home i got on facebook once again and talked to my favorite Brother-in-law (my only brother-in-law) Jared Lanier aka Sasquatch. It was quite exciting. :) (Haha he said i had to mention him so there you go Jared) :) :)

The most stressful week ever!

So this Week has been so super stressful! We started promenade practice and i love the dance but im worried about how its going to work with my huge dress! Well we will see :) Our theme this year is the "time of our lives" and is based on the dirty dancing song the "time of my life" mixed with the new black eyed peas version! The promenade dance has slow dancing and hip hop it is so different from the usual but that could be good as well.

During this week all juniors also took the ACT. I'm really worried because this test really determines my future and if i will be able to go to college in New York at Columbia University Nursing School. I don't know how i did but i'm hoping i did good. I'll keep you updated!

The worst thing ever happened too this week, as if i didnt have enough things to stress about. My great grandpa pyper passed away. He was living in Manti at the time and he died in his sleep with our family surrounded around him. It is a really hard thing to deal with in our family right now and because of my involvment in the ACT i was unable to go to the funeral but i was able to go to the viewing on Monday night. It was really hard but we are also really happy for him because he is now reunited with the love of his life, my great grandma Tessie.

I will keep you updated on everything Prom and ill let you know how it goes! wish me luck in this coming week i'll need it! Trust me!!!! :) :) :)

This is a picture of me and my grandpa! R.I.P~1926-2011~

The American Boy

This is a poem i wrote for History. Tell me What you think :)

The American Boy

He is the American boy.
He’s not much older than eighteen
he is heading off to war.
He is trained to protect
he is fighting for our freedom.
He is the average American boy.

He is our hero
he risks his life every day.
He has left his family behind
he may never return.
He fights for days without any rest
he never complains.
He is the average American boy.

He is the American boy.
He proudly left to serve his country
he knows not many understand why.
He fought for years
he didn’t know how much it meant.
He is the average American boy.

Prom :)

All Right so i have officially not updated my blog in ages. When i first made this i was totally planning on updating every day or so as a journal but i guess it hasn't happened. So i guess ill just tell you the biggest thing that has happened since my last post....

 So of course PROM is coming up soon and naturally i wanted to start planning the second i got asked!! I'm such a perfectionist that any time something would go wrong i seriously wanted to pull my hair out. Well im glad i didnt cuz that wouldnt be good for prom lol. Well i guess ill just start with the basics.

I'm going with a really cool guy named doug and so excited! Last weekend i went and got my dress. Let's just say i am never going to shop that long again it sucks lol and the sad thing is that i absolutley love to shop :) Well after trying on about twenty dresses i finally found one that i love. It's a little plain, and ya i know thats not me at all, but i really loved it. So here is a picture :) The Picture is kinda horrible so here is a brief description. It is sleeveless with black on the top and white tulle on the bottom. I am going to wear a black bolero over it cuz you know "Modest is hottest" haha and then im going to add in neon pink accessories. The Dress is soooo poofy you have no idea its a great ball gown. I'm really hoping that on my date we can go paintballing or laser tagging but you never know we will have to see i guess. My group might be me and doug, whitney and hayden, Mari and her date, jakima and her date, and Randi and her date. Mari, jakima, and randi haven't been asked yet but im sure they will! It's going to be so much fun i cannot wait.Well i guess thats all the update for today. I'll keep you updated on my life in Sevier county :) :)

p.s. Thank you so much to my bestie Laura, my mommy kammie, one of my most favorite cousins nicole, and her friend chance for coming with and dealing with me when i couldnt find a dress! I am so glad you guys stuck by my side until I did!! Thanks again I love you guys!!
