Cross Country

Cross this year was the BEST thing I have done since I've moved here. I loved it soo much, and Im soo sad it's over! But we're still having reunions! We had one last night at our house! :)
Our banquet was last Thursday. I got a medal for making the Georgia Elite time, a trophy for Most Improved Runner, and a vasrity letter! I love running soo much! My first meet in September I ran a 25:46, and my best meet yet was in November and I ran a 20:59. The coaches were the most positive coaches I have ever had, and I loveeeed my team! :)

Cross Country

Two of my best friends from cross :)

One of my first meets!

Our team has a few chior people, so on the day of the concert, we all went running together, came back to my house and showered and got ready, went to Subway for dinner, and met the guys at the school to make posters for the singers!

One of the runner's parents made these wooden signs for the runners that made it to state. They had our names on them and the stuck them in the grass in the front of the school right next to the main road :)

Our pasta party before state :)

Mom, dad and Ellie came to state with me! On the way home, Ellie told me that when I run...my face looks like it's dying. Hahaha! My goal was to finish top 5 out of our school, and after about mile 2 I moved from 7th to 5th :) Our team went to LongHorn after the meet for dinner!

Family :)

Mike, Angie, Julie, and Randy came to visit us last week. Words can't describe how much I loved it..and how much I love them. We had so much fun! We all missed school on Friday, and Angie talked me and Nate into missing on Monday. We partied all weekend long. We went to Nate's football game, went shopping multiple times, me and Nate got to go to dinner with the adults one night, ate and ate and ate, had a birthday for Julie, sat outback by the fire and had hot chocolate, went to see a few movies, and so much more. I love them :)

Twins :)

I SO wish me and Nate came here pretending to be twins. Everyone here says we look like twins, I think we could pull it off. We went in Buckle today, and me and Nate saw these at the same time. We both freaked out...at the same time. So we snuck into the dressing rooms, and took this darling picture!

Georgia has done something to us...

Oh my...I live on a farm. I just went to feed Isabella and I gave her the chicken food! Then i realized that was wrong, dumped it out, and went and got her right food. Turns out that was the horse food!! Finally I found the dog food! It just hit me this week though..this is totally a farm.

2 ponies (Alejandro and Fernando)

2 pot belly pigs (Chiche and Chong)

3 horses (Missy, Bella and Duke)

6 chicks (still can't decided on all the names)

1 dog (Isabella)

were getting cows soon too.....WEIRD.

New family members!

Our new pets this week! :) Dad picked me up from school this week with 6 chicks! :)

Our new pets :)

Our new horse family! The mom is Missy, then there is Bella and Duke.

Grizzles!

The biggest football game of the year, aganist Creekview's biggest rivals, the Sequoyah Chiefs, was on Friday. School was a party all day long, and was SO loud! Everyone wore blue and green too. The end of the day we had a pep rally, BEST pep rally I have ever been to. I sat on the Sequoyah side with the kids in my ward. I was wearing all Creekview stuff, so I had to put on someones work shirt to hide it, or I probably would have gotten shot. We won! Amazing game! 17-13.

Spanky, Chili, Rosie..?

Can't decide on a name! Any ideas?

It is more red than this, but you cant tell by the picture

Isabella

Last week dad went to an emergancy work call. A tree had fallen on a rental house. Turns out, the family is moving into an apartment this week, and needed a home for their Weimaraner, Isabella. Like we could say no...! Here she is! :) This was right after her nap, so she is a little sleepy.

The lake behind our house. It is so pretty! It started to get dark when I was finally done taking pictures, so one is a little dark..

Driving down the free way, all you see is.......Beautiful!

The Blue Room

Another picture of the house. This is my favorite room in the house. The blue room. Not only does it have my favorite toy, our piano, but it is blue! :) It is so different from anything, and I love it!

So coming home from EFY was the longest day of my life. I left for the Salt Lake air port at 7:30 AM, and by the time I walked in my house, it was 10:30 PM. I was so exhausted, and when I went up in my room, it was fully decorated! :) This is NOT how it looked when I left. When I left all there was was the bed. I was so happy! Mom and dad did a really good job I think :)

Red Robin....YUMMMMM

Well two nights before we moved, we made one last trip to our favorite restaraunt, Red Robin. We were so sad, because RedRobin.com told us there were none in Georgia. So we get here, and we see a commercial for Red Robin! We google it, and turns out RedRobin.com lied! So this is us at our new Red Robin, 30 minutes away! :) :)

Long Live Napoleon!

Well, this morning I slept in, and it sucked. The extra sleep was nice, but I would have rather been woken up at the crack of dawn by our dear rooster, Napoleon. It's sad to say, but Napoleon was attacked, mangled, and destroyed by a fox. It happened to his girl friend a few months back, and ever since then he has hopped up in the tree next to my window from 6 pm-6 am for safety. I can't even imagine how he must have felt, to see your girl friend eaten by a fox. And early in the morning after he hopped down and went to the pen for the day, it happened. We all miss him SO much. I hated him, but I was crying. Ellie slept with his feathers last night, she thinks that even though all of his feathers are all over the field, and he hasn't been seen in a few days, that he is just hiding. "Mom, if you were naked you would want to hide too!" -Ellie. I miss you Nap Nap! Love you!

Family Time!

Pretty much all time is family time here! So we have to be creative with how to spend that time. So Lindsay and Ellie decided to make cup cakes! :) We also decorated grahm crackers with colorful frosting, sprinkles, and chocolate and brought it to this lady down the road, Vickie. This lady is who we walk over to and buy DELICIOUS squash. It tastes like candy! Yumm!! This lady is also the ONLY person I know in all of Georgia....
