head!Miki had no mercy practically smacking him on the head with
her tube(it was cardboard). Then we did the Nativity play I was an angel(again).

178th General Confrence

As MOST of you know today& yesterday was General Conference.
Yesterday I got to go to the A.M. Session in the Conference center(dad came with me of course.)
I thought that the talks were really good.
I don't know if you noticed but yesterday at the P.M. session you know how there was a children's choir & when they noticed the camera pointing at them they would look straight ahead and smile some of them would just stare at the camera to scared to move.

Boston Trip

On October 13th my parents are going to Boston. My dad has a business trip, and my mom is going to. When dad is at a meeting all day mom MIGHT go to Maine for the day. Their also go to go to well a lot of places. We went to the library yesterday and she got about 10 books on Boston and she asked I would like to help plan. But she knew very well that all the kids were mad at her because she gets to go to the ocean!!!!!!!!!!

1st Day Of School!

Today was the 1st day of school. My teacher Mrs. Van Tassell. I was very disappointed that I got her but in finding out that Mr. Stopa and Mr. Barbato left and they hadn't hired new teachers yet that I had really got the best teacher, but after I met the other teachers I think they are all equal.


The day went well, other then the fact I had only 1 friend in my class. Now that I look at the 5th graders this year they seem so little.

Idaho Trip

On Friday We went to Bondocks with the Portland Rues, Grandpa,Grandma,And Uncle Bub.
Lasertron is my favorite game. First me Abbey, and Sydney did go karts Me and Sydney were to short to drive so Abbey drove Sydney while Aunt Jenny drove me. Then we went and did Lasertron . It was AWESOME! But I got LAST place. On my second time in line(for Lasertron) I saw Spencer staring at a GIRL and I don't blame him she was really CUTE and about his age. Anyway After I got bored of lasertron (more like wornout.) we went and got our tokens first I did the jackpot and got 45 tickets then we went and had lunch then came back. Once
I had spent all of my tokens and had gotten my prizes. I went back for more lasertron. FINALLY at 5:30 we went and did something as a family then we went back to grandma's house.

The next day we went river rafting. I was fun . In some places there were 1 to 2 feet waterfallsthat was awesome too. I was the one in the front so I got splashed more then anyone.
the there were some rapeds that was fun and one again I got splashed more then them.sometimes we got stuck in trees and thought we saw holes but luckly it didn't.

GLASSES

I am the next victim of the bad eyesight.
Supposedly coming from my dad's side.
I always thought that having glasses would
be fun. But today the first day with they gave
me a huge headache, I guess that this is normal for
someone who just got glasses. There is an upside
to it I will be able to see the fireworks better tomorrow.

GRANDMA REESA & GRANDPA PHIL COME HOME!

Last Sunday my grandparents came home from their mission in New Zealand.So we went to their house to celebrate. It was lots of fun! They were gone for 18 months! I couldn't stand it.When we got there we were so excited.We had a lot of fun at their house.We had a barbaque.
They said that they had a lot of fun there(New Zealand). They brought us back really cool stuff like a New Zealand backpack. I'm REALLY glad they're back.

Hope of America Details

Now During the day we went to a practice where everyone watch what everyone else was doing. It was really cool there were a lot of singing and dancing. But everytime it was my turn to sing they said to keep on singing louder and LOUDER so I lost my voice at the practice,but luckly I got it back before the real thing. After the practice we went to a park to eat lunch.Camry kept on chasing Shaylee and Shay ended up in a tree. On the way back to the school I rode in Mr.Snow's car which had Earthquake sounds which mde the seats vibrate it was AWESOME.

Anyway that night the family piled into the car and we were off! When we got there I got out and went to get ready while they went and did who knows what. When I got everyone from Lakeveiw was already there!!And no one else was there. Holly Monson kept on running up and down the BYU Marriot Center's seats then she fell flat on her face and kept on doing it! Mrs. Snow didn't show up till right before the program and that freaked us out.

When the program FINALLY started it was cool about in the middle a 91
year old woman did the splits!!!!!!!!!!
The Preshow went on forever but it was cool. There were some Spanish dancers,and a lot of different things.

Hope of America

It was a really fun thing!!!!!!!!!!


More details later!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Stake Easter Play

This year me ,Abbey, and mom. Preformed in our stake's Easter play.
There were five rooms of activities.me and Abbey were in the Iron Rod Room.

In that room there were three scenes in that room.The first scene Sariah told of their journey into the wilderness and the journey of her sons back to Jerusalem to get the plates.

The next scene was about Enos's prayer. Landon who played Enos kept forgetting his lines, but it seemed like he was really thinking about what to say in his prayer.

The next scene was MY scene (and Abbey's )
were Abish played by Abbey tells her story.

here were 9 groups each night and it was tiring.
