Just One More Thing...

It's 9:30 p.m. and it's 40˚ outside!  Wow!  It's normally been that during the daytime/afternoon!

Random Cuteness

When I was little (probably about Nicholas's age) I couldn't say Cinderella.  I loved the Disney show so I just called it Fellafella!

Yeah!

On Thursday, book reports are do in Mrs. Allred's (my English teacher) class.  I'm only about 1/2 way through the book, which really stressed me out.  I don't read very fast and I still had about 100-150 pages left of the book and I'd have to read and write the book report in three days.  Not good.  Lucky for my Mrs. Allred decided to be nice and help me out.  I'm in the school play and told us today that if we were in the play she would let us have the long weekend to finish the book report!  YEAH!!!

Oh, Nicholas!

So tonight during family night, while the rest of us were reading my grandma's e-mails that she's sent from her trip around the world, Nicholas was in his own little world.  My behind was getting sore from sitting on the chair so I asked Nicholas to get me a pillow. (Lol!)  Nicholas went to get a pillow and started taking one of the couch cushion pillows.  I started shaking my head "no" and pointed to one that was just there for decoration.  But, he insisted and brought it over to me.  He said, "How 'bout dis one?  It's comfy.  It's comfy," with a huge smile on his face like he was so proud that he brought me a pillow.  Then he decided that pillows were a great idea and got one for everyone, and got 3 for himself.  He climbed up on his pillow mountain and fell off!  But he didn't want anyone to get worried (which we never were) so he just said while kind-of laughing, "I'm okay!  I'm okay!"  It was so cute!  And by the time we finished reading he had managed to fix the (not ever) broken chair.  (Just another excuse to play with tape!)  We all looked over at him and he pulled a blanket off the chair like he was revealing something very important and showed us the tape all over the chair.  While we all looked he said with a huge, cute little smile, "Dis is a bwoken chawr, so we gotta' fix it with tape!" (or, This is a broken chair, so we gotta' fix it with tape!)  It was so cute!  I love Nicholas!  He always makes me smile!

No one will get this except Chandler and Ruby...

She thought love was only true in fairy tales. du du du.  Maybe for someone else, but not for her.  Love was out to get her.  That's the way it seemed, a special someone haunting all her dreams!  And then she heard his lishp! And she's a believer!  Not a trace (well, maybe now) of doubting her mind!  She's in LOVE ooooooo.  She's a believer she couldn't leave him if she tried!....... and then she heard his lishp!

St. George Soccer Tournament

Over Presidents' Day weekend my family and I drove down to St. George.  I had a soccer tournament down there so my family decided to come along.  I'm in the U14 league (about 1/2 of our team is playing up one league because there were too many girls for the U13 team), but I decided to stay with most of the U13 girls instead of my team.  We had 9 girls all in one room!  Each night we rotated, 2 slept on one bed, 2 slept on another bed, 2 slept on the stow-away, and 3 slept on the ground.  Every night we stayed up until at least 12:00.  Last night I went to bed at 2:00.  Maybe that's the reason why we lost so many games.  Ok, we didn't win all of our games, well, we didn't win any, but that's ok.  I still had a lot of fun with my friends and met new ones too!  It was so much fun!  I spent the whole time with the team and no time with my family (sorry fam.)!  1-2-3 GO SCORPIONS! (That's my team name/cheer).  

Not much to report, just a little boring info. cause my friends keep bugging me to update.  (Chandler.  lol!)

My Awesome Cell Phone!

YEAH!!!  Finally after much begging, waiting, threatening, more begging, more waiting, bribing, and more waiting I was able to convince my dad to get me a cell phone if I pay for it.  Some people would dread paying for their own cell phone, but I actually don't mind.  I have 3 younger brothers and end up babysitting them many times a month.  That works out well, cause I just have to babysit free for a few hours a month.  Of course I have texting, it's the new thing for all teenagers.  I have been texting my friend, Chandler, nearly every second I get.  Since she's Verizon I don't have to pay extra!  Score!  I LOVE my phone!  It's SO cool!  It's so new too!  (It probably won't stay that way for too long).  My friend came over and saw it and just said... "It's beautiful!"  I don't mean to brag, but I'm just excited!  Isn't that what you're supposed to do on blogs anyways?

That's a bad picture of me, but that's OK.

It has kind of a glare, but you can see it pretty OK.
