Happiness and sadness run parallel to each other. When one takes a rest, the other one tends to take up the slack. welcome to my life

Gordon B. Hinckley


I don't think we really appreciate what we have until they are gone. Our beloved Prophet, Gordon B. Hinckley has passed away. ( tear, tear.) We all loved him, but i am sure that he is much happier in heaven than he was on earth. Just think of it, he is back with his wife and has met Jesus, Heavenly Father, Joseph Smith, and many others. Remember he is in a better place. :)

New Years

Well on New Years eve i went to a party at the Neilsons and we had a pool tournament and we played Guitar Hero and Wii. It was really fun but i did leave out one thing we did. At 12:00 we all rushed of to get on our bathing suits and then at 12:05 we were all ready to hear the rules of DIVING FOR GOLD. Well we weren't actually diving for gold but we were diving for coins and one quarter that had a specific date on it and it was worth a $20. Well the pool was like 10 degrees to me and i think that it was a bad idea. Heather didn't go into the pool because she was scared that she would get hypothermia. I did though, when you got in you couldn't breathe and your natural instinct is to jump out of the poll and leave the money behind. So the only people who were able to get money were the Neilson's kids: Sidney, Tatum, and Preston. No one got the $20 quarter. Then we ate breakfast: bacon, eggs, pancakes, and hot coco. It was good but i was so cold, I ended up blowing my body with a blow dryer. Then i went home and to bed at 2:00 am and went to bed. All in all it was a very fun night/morning.

Christmas in Lake Tahoe


Well i really didn't get out much so these are like the only pictures of me outside. We went sledding, Rebecca was my partner. It was really fun and i didn't hurt my bottom once.



Well for christmas i sat on the couch by my aunt Nicole and the tree! (I'm giving a thumbs up to my mom in my too big mittens, but they are cozy and keep my hands warm.)(Also they only come in one size.)
