NEON DANCE!!!

2010-09-30T12:36:00.000-07:00

Neon Dance:

On Friday there was a neon dance! It was a blast getting ready for it and going for about 30 mins then disaster hits! :) But Courtney and I went to walmart got white shirts because we didn't want to ruin any of our shirts and got all ready and cute! It was a blast getting ready This is Courtney and I after we were done getting ready and about to go get the boys!

After we were all ready we went back to my apartment to get the camera so we could charge it and take pictures of us. When we went in the apartment my two roommates were just sitting there we asked if they were going to go to the dance and they were like yes and then we asked them if they wanted to join our outfits we gave them a white t-shirt and left them to get ready. and we headed to the boys apartment. We finally had everyone together and the boys decided to still the flags back (we are playing a endless game of capture the flag) and this is them parading around with the flags

They are So funny and there is always a laugh going around when they are with us!! After they finish doing what they were doing with the flags We decided to take more pictures of all 4 of us!!

From there went hitted up the dance!! We were all super excited and the dance was so close to our apartments that it was really good!! By the time we got there and it was already going and they were already out of Glow Sticks :( Dang it so we got some paint and put it all over our shirts. We got some good dancing in for about 30 mins and decided we really wanted glow sticks to splatter all over us. We went to walmart Came back and got started cutting them open and splattering them all over us then distaster Hits! Courtney splattered them all over us and now it was her turn to get it and the first one The Whole glow stick went on her face and majority of it Hits her Eye. She was scared to open and but then did. Her eye started to sting right away Her and ran right back to the apartment were she sat there and rinsed it out for a good 10-15 mins and it wasn't getting any better and she was in tears because it hurt so bad i stole her phone and called her mom and asked her mom what she wanted us to do about it. A couple of phone calls later and her grandpa was at the apartment to pick her up and see what he and his wife could do! Courtney really wanted me to go with her so i did! After another 10-15 mins of rinsing and a couple of phone calls she was doing a lot better. Her grandpa brought us back to the house and Courtney went straight to the shower to get all clean and Rinse her eye out some more. From that point Courtney didn't want to do anything really but sit at the boys apartment and watch a movie so we did that until about 3:00 in the morning! :) It was a good night but not exactly what we pictured it to be! At least we got to spend 30 mins at the dance!! A night i will always remember! :)

Is it so Wrong?

2009-11-14T15:40:00.000-08:00

So The past week i became single! And got thinking about what i really want in life and somethings i have really screwed up on and realized its time for a change time to mend things that are broken and become closer to the church and everything! The first thing that came to mind was how bryce (ex Boyfriend) and I left things! I right away wanted to talk to him and fix things and see if we can be friends agian and if thats not possable at least make thing right because i hate being in fights with people it always eats me to the core. Thinking of all the ways i could get hold of him i found his bestfriends phone number so i texted him and asked for bryces number he refused to give to me a long with 3 other people. I found an email from him today that said:

"What the freak is your problem Leslie? What is it you need to talk to me about so badly that you have to bother every single person I know to get my number that YOU deleted? "

Is it wrong to want to fix things? Is it wrong to try to get hold of him and apologize for everything? I feel like everyone is making me the bad guy when i am just trying to do whats right! Should i give up or keep trying to fix things and fix my life? Please help!!!

DEAR EVERYONE!!

UPDATE!!!

School:
Getting really really really sick of it!! I just want to be done already!! I am probably not going to school next semester, I dont have the money for it. I probably am going to fail my history class because its deathly hard and the test are beasty. My math class and Intro to Film class is super easy and i hope to pass them with flying colors.

Work:
Well ya know work is work!! Still managing away. We are getting a new back manager because the other one got suspended and now isn't coming back as manager. I am pretty happy about that because that now means i can work whatever days i want because i am the oldest one so i get to choose. YAY which means i dont have to work saturdays anymore so i can spend them with casey. Which brings me to...

Relationship:
YES i am in a new relationship! His name is Casey John Winters I meet him when i was 14 at youth conferencel. After that we never talked to each other until a couple months ago when we found out we were both in the same singles ward. We have been talking for 2 months and now we are officialy together. Now before any of you ask he is NOT younger then me, and as a matter of fact he is 4 years OLDER then me!! If you do that math that makes him 22. We just have so much fun together and enjoy EVERY second together! I am learning about him every single day! I have learned that Him and Miah are not a good combination, I got a ab workout one day and almost died because i couldn't breath! He is my favorite and i really like him in my life.

Right now my life is really content! I LOVE EVERY DAY!! I wouldn't trade anything! :)

2009-09-20T19:37:00.001-07:00

This past weekend Rachel and I took off on Thursday to go to Whitney's house! Whitney asked me last week if i was willing to come up and watch the twins while her and her husband went hunting for the weekend! It was cake!! They woke up every day around 8 i would feed them Cheerios play with them for a bit and then put them down for a nap and then they would wake up and it would be lunch time and i would feed them dinner, then play with them and they went to bed at like 8:30!! Whitney and Jeremy came home every night around 8! Playing with the twins it just a treat! They are silly and funny to play with and watch. Watching them eat is so funny and how messy they are! I learned that Kylee LOVES Macaroni and Cheese! Kamri loves you chasing her. I was teaching Kylee the whole time how to walk she is going to be hard to control once she can walk!! I loving watching the girls do everything that they do! On Friday night Rachel and i decided to go and drive around and find what we can find. WE HAD SO MUCH FUN! We took pictures around the LITTLE town. and went to the local grocery store. Everything is to different there, and EVERYTHING is so little and it all closes early! But it was a very great get away from everything weekend and i have decided i need to do it more often!!

My thoughts!

2009-09-15T21:52:00.000-07:00

The past couple of weeks i have focused on me and what i need and i have learned so much so i thought i would just do a list:

1: BOYS ARE STUPID!!
I have finally moved on from Bryce, and i have finally ready to start dating and going on dates again, but for some reason that is like against guys religion. Its either guys don't go on dates with people anymore or Leslie is just butt ugly! I asked one guy on a date a couple weeks ago and he said no, and my friend asked another guy for me because i was a complete chicken and well he said no also. So I am just way to much of a chicken to ask any guy on a date again a fear of rejection. But its like i am so sick of trying so hard. I just wish a boy will show me I'm worth the effort. I am worth getting over the fear of asking a girl on a date and ask me. Sense i have been 16 i think i have been on a total of 3 or 4 dates that the guy has asked me. I only went to high school dances that were girl choices. I went to almost everyone my Jr. year and 2 or 3 of them my senior year. I only went to one guys choice dance, prom my senior year and Bryce took me (he didn't even go to my school).

2: Its time to prepare!!
I have finally realized that my next big steps in life are graduating from college and Marriage. I will not Rush into marriage it will happen when its suppose to happen but i need to start preparing for when that time comes because i want to be completely prepared when it happens. Many people tell me 1 or 2 years and you will be married yes that scares the crap out of me i am way to young to be getting married but what if it a year away and i am not ready at all. Marriage will come sooner then i think and i am so far from ready for that. But i am getting there, everyday i am working closer and closer to the temple.

3: Happy to be me!!
I use to tend to be someone else to make everyone else around me happy. I would do stuff that wouldn't make me happy but it made other people happy. But i realized its time to focus on me. Its time to make Leslie Shore happy and put me first. I am just as important as everyone else. I am doing what i want to do. I am doing what i think is best for me. I am being the REAL Leslie and i will never let anyone take her away from me and try to change me. If you don't like me the way i am then you don't need to talk to me. I am a strong self Driven person! I am so happy to be me and not someone fake. Not someone i am not because for so long i have been trying to be what everyone wanted me to be and everyday it would just crush me down. I am now building myself up and no one can take me down.

4: BEST FRIENDS ARE AMAZING
I have so many friends that i can count on any second of any day. I have Ryan Roper who will drop anything and talk to me and call me and just let me vent my anger and frustrations out and will tell me exactly what he thinks and is probable the most caring person in the world. I have Sophie and Kristen who will rescue me from my house when i am down and sad. because sitting at home when you are not in the best of moods just makes things worse. We can do the wildest of things and its just so much fun. We get out and play a lot and they are the best to talk to and they will give me words of encouragement. I have Rachel who just makes me forget about everything when i am with her and can make me laugh even when i am on the verge of tears. These friends are what i want to be. I want to be a friend that anyone can turn to. A friend that no matter what i am just a phone call or drive away. I want to be what those 4 people are to me. The lord put them in my life to help me and now i am ready and standing waiting for him to put me somewhere so i can be that friend to them. All 4 of these people would never leave my side, even if i screw up so bad they will forgive me and put it behind me. I am being a Best Friend, I am being a Friend!

5: Forgive and Forget
I REALLY needed to learn that. I regret with all my heart some things i have done in my past. I have blow things way out of proportion, and i would hold it against them for a long time. Everyone makes mistakes no one is perfect and i mess up all the time and so why should any of my friends be different. My biggest one that still kills me to this day is my birthday. I think i got mad at Bryce almost everyday for him not being able to be with me on my birthday. He had no control what so ever over it, and he had somewhere else to be that was A LOT more important then a stupid birthday. If he could have, he would have came down but he had no choice. I blew that completely out of proportion and i believe because of my birthday that is why i lost him. Even though i got mad at him so many times for that he did so much to make it up to me, he called me on my birthday even though he shouldn't have because he was on his high adventure and had VERY little service. He let me spend time with his dads family on the 4th of July were i crashed his wave runner. He sent me flowers on my birthday to show that he did care and felt really bad. He came down and we spent an amazing day together on a date. and HE made me a blanket!! and i never truly told him how much all that stuff meant to me, I let the stupid him missing my real birthday take over all the amazing stuff he did to make it up! Even though he is not in my life anymore i wish he could know how much everything he did meant the world to me. It probable was one of the best birthdays ever, but i never EVER thanked him for it all!! I have learned to forgive and forget and i am positive it will keep together so many friendships.

I just need to say sorry to anyone I have hurt. Thanks to everyone for everything they have done for me. I AM SO SORRY!! and THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!! I LOVE YOU!!

Dear everyone:

2009-09-02T14:10:00.000-07:00

It has been way to long and so much has changed in the past long while! I have graduated high school and I have moved on to bigger and greater things! I have many things that have changed so i think i will just make a list:

1. Bryce and I are not together anymore! Its was by far the best thing for me! He doesn't want anything to do with me and that's is his problem not mine. There are so many guys out there that i didn't realize until Bryce was gone! I love being single and am just having fun dating lots of boys.

2. I am not going to snow college! I made the choice to go to snow and had my apartment papers filled out and the check written and everything and i couldn't get myself to mail it! It just felt completely wrong. So i am now living at home and going to uvu.

3. I AM IN COLLEGE!! ahh just recently i have started school at uvu. I LOVE IT!! I have 3 classes. I start out in Intro to film and really the only reason i took that class was to get rid of the stupid fine arts credit. but my teacher is really nice and i should be a fun class. Next i have math! my math class is so stupid. I was placed into math 950 because i can not take test very well and bombed the ACT and the placement test. The 2nd day of class i learned how to Add, Subtract and Multiply! I go to class and i just work on homework. As of right now i have homework done that is not due until End of September and still working away on getting it all done and out of the way! My last class in History!!! I LOVE MY HISTORY CLASS!! He makes history so fun and entertaining! My teacher is so funny and i am really excited to go to class everyday with him!

4. I got a lap top!! I love it having it at school as been really really convenient And as much as my mom says she hates it i think she secretly inside loves it because i am not using her computer 24/7 so she can use it 24/7. Not to mention my family members use it a lot. We had to get a new computer and before we got that new one i don't think we had a computer for a good 3 weeks and so everyone used my lap top to check email and do lots of things. Right now they are using my lap top to do home work because the word program on the computer expired and they are waiting for the new one to come in the mail. Its really nice to have this one for back up because it always works and it has wireless Internet!

5. I have made new friends!! I have always been close to a girl i work with at work named Sophie. But now we are together a lot and do a lot of crazy things! Not to mention i am now really good friends with a girl named Kristen who i also work with!

I love them to the max and they are here for me 24/7 with out fail! (they prob will kill me for putting that picture up but oh well) Sophie is the girl on the left of me and Kristen is on the right! Sophie the other day came up to me and asked me if i would want to move out into a house that's 100 dollars a month!! So in the end of December Sophie and i are moving into a house in American Fork until the summer!!! I am so excited to be out on my own

6. I am now Manager at Taco Amigo!! At the beginning of June the Owners of Taco Amigo were in need of a manager and they came to me and asked me if i would be willing to do it! I told them yes, of course and have been manager ever sense! I love it because i work a set schedule every week and so i could plan school, and play around it! I have a work over load but i still like it a lot!! I manage Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday nights from 4:45-C. Then I work Tuesday and Thursday days! In case you guys don't know I would be the 3rd SHORE manager. Both Jsee and Haylie were managers! I love being manager! It has gotten me closer to all my workers and get to know them all a lot better!!

This is my simple life!!! I love every bit of it!! I would will never want to take anything back that has happened in the past couple year!! I love my life and everything going on in it!!

COMPUTER NERD!!

2009-02-25T20:29:00.000-08:00

8-) IM A COMPUTER NERD!!!! 8-)

So Lately I find myself sitting at the computer!! Now hold on everyone I know for most people you think Leslie is always on the computer but it’s not me at the computer it’s my mother!! Now that the time that I will soon be moving away from home is coming sooner and sooner my mom doesn't know what she is going to do without me. I am giving her a lot of lessons on how to do what on the computer! I am the only person in this house who can fix the computer. If something is wrong everyone comes to me! I did everything for my mom but now she insists on learning it herself and I get so frustrated with her! I have no passionate for this!! I can do it less then like 2 mins and it takes mom like 20 min! She sits and stares at the computer for like a min and then I give and tell her what she is supposed to do. My mom has said many times that when I come home from college I will be sitting at the computer fixing things and teaching her more things the whole time! I am even better then my dad at fixing the computer! That might be because dad says "I can’t fix it" like he does everything before he even try’s to fixes it! And every time I would fix it so a couple times of my dad saying they the family decided to just come straight to me because they know I can fix it! I guess it’s just an excuse to me to be on the computer!! I am just glad mom finally did it and got a blog! Even though I have spent many days teaching her how to do stuff on blogger she is doing pretty good for an old person (I love ya mom). It takes a couple of times of explaining something for her to get it but she is finally getting everything. It’s also some good bonding time!!! I don't mind helping her at all! I wonder how many phone calls I will be getting from mom asking me how to do this and that when I am at college!?

2009-02-04T19:46:00.001-08:00

Hello everyone! I know its been a long time my life it like nonstop!! I am in my Last Semester in high school! I am so so so exited to graduate and move on with my life!! My senior year so far and been a blast i wouldn't change it for the world!
School is kind of pointless!! Right now on A days I go and intern at my moms work, Cedar Ridge, then I go to 2nd at school which is college writing which is and easy A class! On B days I have seminary, Childcare, and Prostart. Its cake! Almost everyday I leave straight from school to work! yes i still work at Taco Amigo! I love they day people! I do not work nights anymore, and can i say that was the BEST idea ever! I love not working nights and have all night to do whatever i desire.
My Intern is a blast I just barely started doing it but its amazing!! I intern for Miss. Allen! She teachers 1st grade! The kids are great! I get to read with them a get to know them really good. Right now she has me working on a project for the end of the school year. On the wordle.net site i am making a name thing (look at last post) I am making them for everyone of her kids in the class! I love it because it gives me a chance to get to know everyone in the class a lot better! All the kids come up to me and say "HI, MISS SHORE" it just brightens my day.
In case some of you don't know i have the most amazing boy in my life!! His name is Ronald Bryce Petersen! I met him at EFY over the summer! We will have been together 8 months on the 14th!! He lives in North Ogden which does make things hard but we are getting through just fine! We see each other at least every 3 weekends!! Mostly its every other weekend!
Now that the end of my high school year is coming i am getting really stressed on where i am heading to college. I freaked out the other day because all my friends have told me i got the feeling i need to be here. I have no gotten any feeling in where i should be going to school. Snow college is looking really good but i cant afford housing, college, books, and food. So my Other option is to live at home keep working at Taco Amigo and go to UVU. Right now before i make my decision and want i want to do i need to get my acceptance letter from snow and see if they offered me a scholarship! The other day i realized that what is suppose to happen will just fall into place! If i am meant to go to snow i will get a scholarship if not then i wont get one. I plan on getting my Generals done then transferring to Utah State where i will be getting my teaching degree in FACS (Family and Consumer Science).
I have the most amazing calling in Church ever!! I was called in August as a Councilor for Special Needs Mutual! Every Thursday night i get to go to mutual with 130 amazing Special Needs!! I wouldn't trade it for anything! I believe that i was not called to this calling to help them! They are helping me SO much more then I'm helping them! Also along with Every Thursday night i get to once a month we do a visiting ward where i ward comes in and does our activity on Thursday, then we go and do there whole Sacrament meeting! Its by far the most emotional Sacrament meeting I have been to and anyone who has experience it.
So pretty much my life it just doing pretty good! I'm a typical senior in High School! Doing Senior kind of things!

I went to the Doctors today I still have 3 more weeks so counting down until I get to take that dang thing off, 21 day! I have been in the dang thing all summer. So ready for it to come off! My senior year is going to be fun but at the same time a little hard! I have 2 classes each day, and then after I get out of class I will either go to work so I can pay for college, or go to classes at UVU. Then 3 nights a week I will be working again! I am hoping to have enough money to pay for College and a little more incase of an emergency! Then I am hoping to take at least every other week trips up to Layton to be with Bryce, but I guess that just depends how busy we both get! Incase you guys didn't know I am going into FACS (family and Consumer Science) which is like food classes and TLC class and fun stuff like that! I am hoping to go to snow for 2 years and then head up to Utah state and graduate from there! It’s the same thing my sister-in-law did and she went into FACS also! Lately I have been seriously thinking about serving and Mission, but I guess we will see what that comes if I am married or not! But I guess right now my only thoughts are trying to make it through High school!

I'm 17!

2008-07-09T10:04:00.000-07:00

Well I am official 17! It was an absolutely amazing birthday, I couldn’t have asked for anything better! I got my Birthday present from my parents the day before because they left for camping the day before my birthday, which is Guitar hero! I am addicted to it already. My Birthday started out, J'see and I stayed up until 4 in the morning on July 8th Playing Guitar hero! Then we went to bed and I woke up 3 hours later to go to a meeting for girls’ camp! I was so tired but it was completely worth it! HEHE!! I came home and slept for 2 hours so I was completely wasted! A girl from my work took me out to lunch, we went to Pier 49! Then we came back and played guitar hero! At 3:30 my boy got to my house. Bryce and I just spent like the whole day together! He went to YW with me; he was the only guy there! Hehe! Then after that we went and got smarties for J'see and we sat in the Hammock and did our stupid Trick with them! Bryce for my Birthday got me a bracelet I absolutely love it! I haven't taken it off sense I opened it! The last thing Bryce and I did before he had to head back home was we went up on the mountain in Cedar Hills and there is a swing and you go sit on it and it looks over like 5 cities! The most beautiful thing ever! We just sat there and talked for about half an hour! We said our goodbyes and off he went! It was the most amazing birthday ever!

That is pretty close to the Bracelet Bryce gave me, Mine does have a Cursive L on the Front of it!

Preference

2008-01-27T16:17:00.000-08:00

Preference was amazing! Preference was my first formal dance that i have ever been to and I couldn't ask for anything more! There was 14 of us in our group! J'see and Nash, Emily and Nate, Lisa and Ryan, Lynsey and Spencer, Tanner and I, Sarah and Tal, and Katie and Matt! My date was Tanner Wheadon he is a sophomore but i am only older then him by 1 1/2 months. He is on the Lone Peak Basketball team. He is 6'3" we looked really funny together when I danced with him I had to look completely up like I was looking at the ceiling. I am only 5'2" he is a whole foot taller then me! I also like Tanner!For our day date we went laser tagging, which is fun like it always was. All the girls didn't tell there dates what we were doing and we just told them to wear a white or light colored shirt! They were a little mad when they realized they fell for that trick! We were all ready to play and the owner told they guys to go to floor and we told us that if they boys hit each other it will kill them but if we hit our own team mates it wouldn't do anything, also there vest were always going to light up so we could always see them. Even thought the girls had the biggest advantage we still lost! We lost by 70! My date Tanner was having a ruff time he only shot 6 people and was shot 36 times he got very last our of 14 people. I took 11! After we got done with laser tagging we went and got Ice Cream and the BYU creamery! Then we took the boys home so we all could get ready for the dance and dinner.We went and got the boys after running around for about 3 hours getting everything ready, but finally we were ready and pretty and ready to pick up our dates. When I went and picked up my date his parents were both in cali for his dad's work and so his kind sister was there and as she said "the mother for the night" She took pictures of us just together and then putting the flowers on and then on the porch. She was a sweet heart! Then we went to dinner that our group prepared. We had dinner at an amazing house in our ward that is very old and they just re-did it! When everyone got at the house my mom and Sarah's mom and Katie's mom all came over and took pictures for about 30 min. Then after that we went back into the room we were eating in which was set up pretty much amazing and we all ate. Sarah's mom made Cafe Reo Salad or burritos for us. Then we had better then sex cake! After that we sat around and talked and had a good time then we went to the dance. When we got to the dance we took pictures and then danced our hearts away.I had so much I couldn't have asked for a better date. At the beginning he didn't really know anyone in our group but by dinner he was talking and getting to know everyone. All night long he kept on telling me how much fun he was having and kept on saying thanking for everything. I think my favorite thing about the whole night was we were slow dancing and he started to talk to me and he was like I have been looking around at everyone and it makes me feel amazing that my date is modest and thanked me for being modest two times. My date was as perfect as anyone could get. He always opened the door for me, and always talking to me. He even once went to the side of the gym and sat down at a girl named Daria and talked to her for awhile because she was all alone, I went over and me and him talked to her for about 5 min and then her date came and got her. After then dance I took everyone home! It was an amazing night and there is no way I will ever forget it! (This is only the beginning of pictures i still have 4 set of pictures coming from other people who took pictures)

Merry Chirstmas

Merry Christmas Everyone! This Christmas in the Shore house hold some a lot of fun. It is the on year when all of the siblings are at home and spending Christmas eve and Christmas morning with us. We had presents all merging into the room. It took us about 2 hours to open them all. I got my senior ring, 3 shirts, a vest, a bag and some good lotion and perfume from Victoria Secrets. I ended up having to work on Christmas eve which took me away from my family for 2 hours but it was okay i got some money and my family didn't really do anything while I was gone. In the end everyone was very happy with what they got for Christmas. It was nice to spend time with my whole family and not have to worry about any school assignments or anything. I hope everyone had a great Christmas.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The kind! Random Thought...

2007-07-02T11:03:00.000-07:00

I went to Ihop with my The Laural's young women group, Sister Clark, Sister Pritchett, Emily, Marrissa, Michelle, Dalene, and my sister! They took Dalene and I out for breakfast because we are the new ones in Laural's. So we all were just sitting there deciding what we wanted and a group came in a little after us and next you know Michelle the sweetest girl ever nice to everyone freaks out because one of them are her friends and they started to talk and then stopped and we just kept on going with our meal. we spent the whole time just talking and having an amazing time. Next The group that came in after us was about to get up and leave and Michelle got up and was like I need a hug girl, and they girl gave them a hug and they were on the way out right before they left that dad of that girls turns around and was like my daughter says that you are the nicest girl at her school. Michelle was so touched. After that we just finished out dinner and our server came up and was like i just want you to know that the guy at the other table payed for your whole groups food. We all were in shock and couldn't believe it. He didn't even know us at all he just paid our 80 dollar bill. We all where so touched and we sat there and talked about that for a long time then out server came up to us again and was i just also wanted you to know that on just his tip for me he left a 25 dollar tip. We couldn't believe a man not knowing any of us was so kind to us. We all sat there and was like I wish that I would think of nice things like that and do them like he did for us! We were all touched that day and never ever will forget out it! Lately all I have heard about is service. Also on Friday J'see was hanging out with some friends and walking around her friends neighborhood and they saw this guy unloading stuff because he was just moving into his new house and the first thing they thought was to help them move in so they all went and helped him move in. This past week I have been touched by many things people do and how they do service with out hesitation!! I am very Grateful for all those people that have served me!! I will never forget anything that has happened to me this past week!!

HOME!

2007-06-24T16:03:00.000-07:00

I am finally home!!! I have been gone for about 2 1/2 weeks!!! It feels amazing to be home so here is what I have been up to...

June 7-10
I went camping with my Family and my brother Zach and sister in law Lindsay!!! We went to the green river for a couple of days!! It was a blast, my whole family all went fly fishing and i just sat there and watched them. Chance caught his first fish fly fishing!! Lindsay, caught two fish one was like 2 inch's and the other one was pretty good size. Miah didn't catch any fish this time maybe next time. Zach and my dad caught too many fish to count. It was good to get away from everything. On to the next adventure.....

June 14-16
Youth Conference!! It was so much fun! On Thursday we did a service project an all day thing it was amazing. We did a bunch of stuff for a family that their dad is in Iraq which the family is in our stake!! We had a dance that night and just got to know a bunch of people in our stake and have a good time to just have fu n. Then Friday morning we left for Heber Valley Camp and was up there until Saturday night. I met a guy named Brady he is an awesome guy and I was with him all weekend, we got really board and we started to play baseball with wood chips and a big thing of wood. Oh man almost got tooken out. On Saturday right before we left we got to go to a ropes course. It was so much fun but at the same time i got scared for one thing but i did it. You had to climb up and log that was about 500 ft tall and then when you got to the top of that you had to cross a long that was about the same length and then you go down a zip line. I wasn't scared of going down the zip line it was crossing the log. Once i got up there i was fine and had a blast, even though i had to stand on that log for about ten minutes while they fixed the zip line. It was a blast and will always remember it!! Last adventure for now....

June 17-24
We have a condo up at park city, so we got 2 rooms and went up there for a whole week. Sunday through Thursday my best friend Lynsey came up. Well we pretty much had a blast up there. We decided after a couple days up there we really didn't need to bring real clothes up just PJ's and our swim suite, we did the same thing every day. We got up at 11 ate lunch ((who needs breakfast anyways)) then put our swimming suite on, went down and swam until like 5 came home ate dinner in our PJ's and after dinner went back down and swam some more. Then came back for the night got in bed and watched a movie until we all were asleep. That is what we did every day!! On Thursday night Whitney and Jeremy my brother and sister came to see us and spent sometime together, then Friday Zach and Lindsay came to see us as well and we all spend time as a family together. Friday night we all stayed home and watched movies and ate junk food!! I loved it, park city was so much fun just having nothing to do and going with the flow it was amazing!!

I am now home for 2 weeks and then I am off again, it feels good to sleep in my bed, oh how i have missed my bed. I am grateful to be home and to talk to all my friends again!!!
