Apples.

Wow.. What a day.

Well... today was my first day back to school since the break, and this is how it went:

So, I went to cheer and we were running and jumping and doing all the things cheerleaders do. Well, we were getting drinks and I was filling up my water bottle when all of a sudden... BAM. I can't see anything. I'm starting to freak out wondering what is happening to me. Finally I get my sight back, but everything is blurry. I feel like dying. Everything on my body goes limp. I almost fall to the ground. Slowly I start to feel better.

Everyone asks me if I ate breakfast and I respond, "Of course... it is the most important meal of the day." I'm starting to think maybe that's why I was feeling sick. Well we start to do jumps again and I feel like I am sweating, but a really cold sweat. I feel my face... nothing. there was nothing... no sweat. I am very weirded out by now. Everyone tells me I look pale.

Crap I have the swine flu. No... not really. That is just how everyone reacts to things now. haha.

Well... I started feeling much better, just a little headache... but much better. The dance team danced with us. We are performing a dance with the dance team on December 10th and I am SUPER excited!! It is going to be sweet. I don't really like the choice of music, but oh well. It will still be sweet.

The bell rings and I head off to second hour. Photography. We were editing our pictures and I made a sweet picture. ha. I love photoshop. Ms. Henslee tells me she likes my picture and how I edited it. She is so nice.

Third hour comes around and I see my friend Ashlynn. She starts telling me about her boyfriend's farewell. It was so exciting. She was also telling me how he leaves on Wednesday, and she is sad. She said she wants to hang out with him all day tomorrow. I don't blame her. That's how I felt too. ha. Well when she was telling me about Clansy, it reminded me of Austin and the last day we hung out. SAD DAY!!! But good day too! ha. :)

LUNCH TIME!! SO excited... SO hungry. We go to Broulim's and I decide to go to Dairy Queen. I start looking at the menu.. trying to decide what I want to get. I decide I want to be a little kid again, so I order a Chicken Strip Kids Meal with a Strawberry Kiwi Arctic Rush and YUMMY fries. I eat it and realize it is the perfect amount of food! I am going to start getting Kids Meals more often! :) Well I decide to look at the designs on the bag and see a FREE TREAT COUPON!!! By this time I am Exstatic. How much better could it get... Perfect amount of food, a drink, a FREE TREAT.. what else would you need.

The excitement all ended in Statistics. I realized I didn't do the extra credit when she asks who did it. Dang it. She explains our assignment and I start doing it... Crap... it is way over my head. I try to start telling my friends about my New Moon experience and Thanksgiving break, and my teacher tells me to cease. WHAT.. what does that even mean!! I continue to talk.. She tells me another word that I don't understand. I tell her I am almost done with my story. She tells me she knows that saying that means I am not going to stop talking because she knows since she has had me in class before. I prove her wrong. I finish my story in like 5 minutes.

French class. I walk in and walking into my french class makes me happy for some reason. I learn a lot of french and I watched a video on france. Very interesting. The round a bouts seem CRAZY.. ha. Well... I found out how to say I love you... Je t'aime!! Sweet huh? :)

Well we start driving home and I start eating an apple. I felt smart wearing my glasses.. and eating that apple made me feel even smarter. I get home and the smell of homeade bread is lingering in the air! I see a letter! YES!!! I am jumping up and down.. Austin sounds like he is doing great. I love hearing from him. I can't believe I get to talk to him in 25 days. If I get snowed in on Christmas I will be SO SO SO sad. But I won't... I know it. ha. I also can't beleive his birthday is in 11 days. And also that he has almost been gone a full year. He is almost half-way done with the mish. I am so proud of him. :)

(Me with my apple!)

Anyways.. Have a marvelous day!! :)

Glasses.

So yesterday my sister JoDee, my friend Hannah, and I went to Rexburg! We went shopping kinda.. but we went to the Dollar Store and we were looking around and I found these lovely glasses...

I am not a big fan of glasses... but when I saw these and other cute ones I fell in love, so I bought them. hahaha. I want to get more glasses now, but cute ones like these.. ha. they had pink ones there too... I might go and get them! ha. :)

(Hannah and me shopping. ha.)

Today my sister JoDee left to go back to Utah. Sad day.. but good thing Christmas is in 26 days cause I get to see her again!! WOOHOO!! :)

Have a fantastic day everyone!!

Success at last!! :)

Well we ended up taking my grandma and grandpa's denali down to Utah. We thought it would be a smooth drive down, but nope.. wrong again! (I need to stop assuming things! ha.) Well we filled up with gas and my brother, Andy, was driving. He thought that the freeway enterance was on the left, but it was on the right, So when the light turned green he had to stomp on the gas and get in front of this guy. Well my brother-in-law, Tyler, had bought a drink. He had it sitting on his lap. When Andy floored it, Tyler's drink spilt a little in his lap. We gave him napkins and everything was fine.

Well, we got on the freeway fine, and there was this car that when we would try to pass he would speed up (I hate driver's like that.), well we were in a separate lane and there was a tire in his lane, so my brother had to let him in because the guy was just turning into our lane even though we were right there. My brother slammed on the brakes, and at that time Tyler had his drink in between in feet. Well, the drink flew forward. We thought to ourselves, "Wow... could this get any worse." haha.

We decided to get the best out of the trip. We started playing with Tyler's Mac and we took some funny pictures and then I was taking pics.

Well, we finally got to Utah and we picked up my sister and told her about the drive down... she was like, "Oh my friend works for a carpet place.. he can get you stuff to clean the carpet." (not in those exact words... but pretty close. ha. We started having success after that!! WOOHOO. :)

We went and saw New Moon!! Great show. I loved it, except the actress for Bella, Kristen Stewart, kinda bothers me, but other than that it was AMAZING!! Well we came out of the theater and saw this poster:

I got so excited!! JUNE 30th!! That is sweet!! I couldn't beleive it at first, but then it started settling and I got more and more excited every time I thought about it!!! :)

Well, we had a DELICIOUS thanksgiving!! I am so thankful for family, food, trials, etc.

The next holiday now is CHRISTMAS!!! WOOHOO.

So, I was looking at my sister's phone and I found this picture I drew of my missionary, Austin, a while ago! haha.

Well we went and visited my Aunt and got new YUMMY recipies and we figured out how to work our convection oven!! WOOHOO. ha.

(This is my cute little grandma on thanksgiving day!)

Well, the trip was over and we came home!

Everything worked out good. Yesterday we went shopping (Black Friday), and they didn't have that good of deals like they usually do. But it was SUPER fun! Last Night we watched some movies. Super funny movies!!

Well Everyone, Have a fantastic weekend.

*Aubree*

AHHH....

So you know how when you think everything will go perfect... it DOESN'T??

Well... that is happening right now.

So I went to gymnastics this morning thinking... Ok.. I'm gonna come home, get ready, pack for Utah, go to Utah, see New Moon, see family, etc.

That isn't how it is going though.

I got home, got ready, packed for Utah, then we had my brother take the Suburban in to get it fixed before we left because they just told us it needs aligned.

They Aligned it, and my brother was driving it home and it still shook, which means that wasn't the problem.. he went back and went back like 3 times.. still no success.

We decided to take it someplace else, they told us we shouldn't even be driving the bad boy. We can't drive it until it gets fixed.

Now we are in a pickle!! haha. Hopefully everything works out! let's cross our fingers that we will figure out how to get to Utah!


Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! :)

Church.

Wow... I don't think I have ever went to so many church meetings in a day in my life!! hahaha. So I went to my cousin Rory's homecoming this morning, and then I went to my ward, then I went and sang. Well... I was on my way to go sing and it snowed you know.. so I slid off the road! It was SUPER scary. and the weird thing is, is I Was only going like 10 miles an hour. haha.

Well.. I sang so now I have two musical numbers down, and only two more to go. haha.

Goodbye...

Well there is snow on the ground now so that is goodbye to summer/fall and hello to winter. This winter I plan to be more excited about the snow and make everything positive about winter. Even the high winds and freezing cold temperatures, along with knee high snow. ha.

Well not only is it goodbye to Summer and Fall but it is also goodbye to Elder Chapman. They are the missionaries in our area. Elder Chapman got transferred. I hope he does good in his new area. ha. Elder Moller is still here though. He is so funny. haha.

Today was the start of our 2nd tri so it was also goodbye to 1st tri. Well Today was fun. second hour I have photography... it is going to be... interesting. ha. 3rd hour is English. It seems like its going to be fun. 4th hour is Statistics.... I am excited for that class. It will be awesome, and 5th hour I have FRENCH!!! WOOHOO.. It is going to be a blast. I am so excited to learn another language other than english!! haha.

Well... wish me luck in learning my new language and in all my other classes.. haha. lol.

Have a good day!! :)

Nervous.

Today I was SUPER nervous. I had to sing in church. It was very scary. Not only was it in front of my ward... but the whole Stake Presidency was there and the High Council man and visitors. I was shaking really bad. It went pretty good though. When I got into the song I was less nervous, but I was afraid of messing up or my voice squeaking. ha. Well after church I got asked to do 3 musical numbers. I am singing at a singles ward next Sunday, then I am going to play my harp at a stake meeting thing, and then I am singing in church on the 20th of December. I am Way more nervous then I was this morning now. Does anyone have any good ideas on what Christmas song I could sing?? :)

(This is a picture demonstrating how I feel right now. ha)

P.S. Sorry it has been so long since I have written anything. ha. :)

Have a great day!!

Halloween!! :)

To get ready for Halloween we had Red Ribbon Week and Thursday was crazy hair day it was fun. I did a french braid up the back of my hair and a HUGE poof and a crazy high bun. Hailey had a mohawk thing.. it was sweet. ha. :)

(Me and Hailey)


So on Saturday it was Halloween. It was such a fun day. well first off... Friday night I helped my mom with my little brother's halloween carnival by taking the kids around to the different games. Little kids are so cute. Anyways.... So for Halloween I was a blue bird. I put feathers in my hair and put white stuff on my face with blue and silver.. ha.

(My hair and face.)

(My outfit!)

(My little brother Rusten's outfit.)

So for Halloween I went to a ward party in Rexburg. At the ward party we made carameled apples and the caramel actually stayed on the apple.. it was AWESOME. Well then I had Apple Cider and I put whipped cream in it.. not a good idea.. don't try it. It isn't very yummy. haha. Well then me and Hannah went and rented a red box, Monsters vs. Aliens... It is such a funny show. I had a fun halloween. I hope you did too. :)

(Hannah and I. She was Minnie Mouse.)


Well today was awesome with our new cheer coach. She is a really good coach.. she actually fixes us when we are doing something wrong.. and she is always smiley. :)

(Do you like my ring?? It lights up!! haha.)

So today I asked this kid Travis to Harvest. I wrote on a poster, "Will you be my Sugar Daddy at harvest?" and I taped sugar daddies to the poster and he had to look on the back of them to find out who I was.. and people were telling me that the one that had my name on it was the last one he looked at. haha.

Well.. Have a great day!! :)
