I'm Back

So! I haven't updated my Blog in forever! So here's a little update on some things, I guess c:
So, the first thing is, Dad's in Afghanistan! He's been there since about November, I believe.
We all miss him so much and can't wait til he (possibly) visits in May!
Second, the word didn't end! Not that I thought it would.
I can't believe it's 2013! 2012 went by so fast.
Thirdly.. My knee is broken!  I was playing volleyball, and I barely even moved, and my knee popped out of place, causing me to fall on it, and it fractured.. I've had an X-ray and an MRI- something I never thought I would have to have.  There is a chipped off piece of bone or something that is going to be surgically removed.. I'm having surgery next Friday. Even though it isn't a very risky procedure and it is highly unlikely that anything bad will happen, I'm pretty scared! I've never needed surgery before, so this is pretty scary!
Another thing that has happened-- We started school! :3 It's so cool! I love it.
I'm in band and have started learning the clarinet. It's pretty easy. Everyone calls me Squidward. Haha.
Anyways, I better end this! You've probably heard all about this anyways xD
I'll Add some new pictures and stuff at the bottom. :D

Mall Trip.

Heyy Derr. So me Mom and the girls went on a mall trip. I had some money and a hot topic gift card so I got a band t-shirt and some sun glasses. I also got a yellow tank top with different colored mustaches and about the most amazing sunglasses I have ever seen.Pictured above. ( i got two pairs of sunglasses, one is normal and the other has a mustache.I got some really cute feather earrings and some other ones, that also have feathers. I got a purple shirt as well. Then we went to Bed Bath and Beyond and Target to get me and DJ a new bedspread. We got one. It's zebra striped and mine has pink sheets and Desiree's has green. its so cool. After that we were done shopping and went to McDonalds and brought everyone dinner. Sooo thats all for now... :)

Yuhhp

So dad got home last night !!! He's been gone for three weeks.. And he's taking me and Desiree to Schlitterbahn pretty soon. (; like maybe Friday. (i will make sure to post pics)
Annnnnnnddddd get this crap news: I am getting a root canal in my front tooth, a filling, and upper and lower braces!!!!!!!!!!!!! okay I'm not to mad about the braces but the other stuff sucks. I heard mom saying she might get me contacts instead of glasses since I'll have to have braces. To be honest I think I'll look quite attractive in them,,,, hahahahaha I'm only kidding!!!!!!!!!!! Of course. So that's all I really have to say for nowwww.... Bye(;

Random stuff

So tomorrows my birthday... Really excited! Tomorrow we are going to the nature center and then the pool. I won't be getting any presents or anything until Dad gets his bonus, which is fine. Also, when he gets his bonus, he is taking me and Desiree to SCHLITTERBAHN!!! (which means "slippery road" in German).  It is this awesome water park, that is huge and has tons of water slides and stuff. It's somewhere over by Dallas. I'm really excited to go. I was going to have some friends over for a sleepover today, but we don't have enough food for extra people, so I probably am going to have one next Friday.
On Sunday, My whole family is in charge of Sacrament Meeting. I'm supposed to give a talk, but still haven't written it yet. But we might have to cancel because Dad has to go to some other base in California for 3 weeks on Sunday. But we still might do it.
Well I better go! i'll post something tomorrow about what happened on my birthday and stuff. BYE!

Girls Camp

So, I once again had the opportunity to go to Girls Camp this year. I got back two days ago.
I made a really good friend, named Meagan. I almost got bit by a rattle snake, went on a 10 mile hike (yes, I am surprised, too), put up a humungous tent with my two other friends OURSELVES,
and bore my testimony for the FIRST time ever. It was great, I even cried.
So, about the rattlesnake: I was walking back from the pool by myself after swimming for three and a half hours, I forgot my toothbrush at home, so i was swishing toothpaste in my mouth. I was hearing a rattling noise, and thought it was some kind of bug, because there are so many. I had a feeling not to spit my toothpaste into this huge bush I passed, but I ignored the feeling and did anyway.
Then, out comes a rattlesnake,and it was now in the striking position. I got scared and started crying, and must've moved and scared the snake, and it strikes at me.  Luckily, I have reflexes like a cat, jumped back, and ran an fast as I could to my campsite, and woke up my friend who was asleep in the tent. Of course, the whole night (every night) me and my friends stayed up until about 3am talking.
It was a mistake though, because we heard coyotes and bobcats one night that were in the campsite next to us, which is only about 60 feet away. Then we got all quiet, because we heard something outside of out tent. There was something walking around out tent! We got scared and all curled up next to each other and didn't get much sleep. We only got about 2 or 3 hours of sleep because we had to wake up at 6 in the morning every day.
So, of course there were pranks. We pranked the first years, and we got pranked by the 3rd and 6th years. We woke up one morning to a disgusting scent and found fart bags in out tent, which are bags filled with this horrendous liquid. There was still some left in it, so we put it in someone elses tent and poured it all over in there. I was at camp from Tuesday to Friday. I loved it and can't wait until next year! :)

My Awesome, Amazing Day

So today was worthy enough to be written about in my blog:
Today we went horseback riding! It was super fun! The first two times I rode the horse,
I had someone on my lap which made it feel scary, like i was going to fall off. (if my mom posted the video of it on her Facebook, you'll probably see it. But then I got to go by myself, which was much easier.
I'm  practically a pro. (:    I know how to control the horse and when someones not on my lap it's way more
fun. We also fished, and got to spend time and hold the CUTEST puppies EVER!!(they miniature Schnauzers)
Several of them were only two weeks old and a couple were a little bit bigger.
Wesley LOVED riding the horses with me. The one horse I loved and was really gentle was named
Tequila, she  was really pretty, but about 15 years old.
Well I better go!!
