I'm Back.

Sorry it has been almost a MONTH since i last posted. To all my faithful followers, (hahaha) i apologize.
Well, I started my senior year, and it is pretty much the same as any other year, with more perks. Like, way more people know who i am, the teachers like me, and i can pretty much get away with more stuff. but its not like i take advantage of that or anything... :) I am taking AP Gov and English, Psychology, a weights class, a Team Sports class, and seminary. It is pretty sweet. but i wish i had less homework.
I decided to do swim team for school this year, i made this decision about two weeks before school started, and am not regretting it yet :) we have practice Monday-Friday, 2:30-6, and its actually pretty fun. I am making new friends, which i love, and the coach is as nice as a coach concerned with making us the best possible swimmers we can be, can be. if that makes sense. but i like her. Our first meet is this Tuesday, and i am competing in the 50 freestyle, 100 back stroke, and probably a few relays, coach is going to tell us on Monday. I am pretty nervous. But its going to be fun :)
That is pretty much what is going on with me, for the time being. I shall try to update more often :) toodles.

More Food?

Here are some more pictures of food!
Mmmmm rice krispies....homemade rice krispies....mmm

So, it finally happened. I got a Facebook. woo-hoo!

um, I dont have much to say...i think thats it.

I LOVE FOOD

I love food. So much. Too much. I eat all the time. I just can't help myself. So I have decided to post pictures of the food I eat/make/think is cool. Today's featured food item is..............
I am not sure of the proper name for this is, omelet? Skillet? Well, it is potatoes, ham, eggs, and cheese. Can you say DELICIOUS? Sadly, we were out of green onions or they would have been included in this dish as well.
This was so fun to make! I love cooking because it makes me feel grown up :) In my family, I think I am the only kid who makes food for themselves. Like seriously. I will make pasta or a bean burrito or rice or something and everyone else will...not make food haha. It is pretty funny.

Stay tuned for more featured dishes!! :)

Girls Camp

This week I was at Girls Camp. We left Tuesday morning, and came home Saturday. It was so much fun! I was a fourth year YCL, or a youth camp leader over the fourth year girls, at a different camp than the other girls. We did more high adventure stuff, like rappelling, hiking, canoeing, shooting, etc. The first night it rained so hard, our tent partly collapsed and I only got, like, three hours of sleep. Miserable. But that was the low point of the week, the rest was awesome.Here are three of the cute girls I was over this week: Jessie, Lexy, and Bryndee. I love these girls SO much!Here are three of my fellow YCL's I was tenting with, they are awesome: Jessica, Mary, and Larissa. I love these girls so much too!!My girls waiting in the cold wind to go rappelling

Me and Jessie, all harnessed up before rappelling, acting like dorks!

I made my girls tie-die shirts because the name of our group was the Fat Cows, so I tried to make these shirts look like cows! :) I am so glad I got to be over these girls and go to camp!

SUMMER

School is over!!!! My junior year did not end with a bang, it flew by. Finals, AP Tests, messing around in classes because teachers were as ready for summer as we were...I was upset though because this year AP classes were required to have a final and the AP test. It was such a rip off. But its all good... My first week of summer has been so lazy!! It has been fun hanging out with friends, going to the movies with old friends, and reading into the wee hours of the morning. Here are some pictures of school:
This is Marissa and Rachel, twins in my ceramics class. It was fun talking to them this year, about silly things twins do!!Here is Brooke, aka my potential partner in crime! She doesn't read my blog, but if she did, she would understand why I am laughing maniacally now! Mwahaha :) She is awesomeLexi and Aubrey on our birthday! Our table and the table next to ours sang happy birthday to us SO LOUD, it was kinda embarrassing. Luckily, since there are two of us, half of the people said 'Katie' first and half said 'Lexi' first, so you couldn't really pick out either name clearly :)
Here is me and Thomas, on my birthday, in the cafeteria! He gave me the awesome hat!!Thomas Thomas Thomas. Thats all I have to say about that.Larissa, and Matt in my hat!Chelsey and Joel, wearing my and Lexi's hats. I LOVE this picture haha
Me signing yearbooks on one of the last days of school...sniff...



Ok so this video is not good AT ALL, it stinks, but at the VERY beginning, you can hear Mike's principal Mr. Rother announcing Mike's name at graduation. And then Nick and Luke chatting... :) sorry the video stinks
Here is Larissa's hair one day in seminary. Matt, her scripture partner, thought it was fun to put stuff in her hair, and she did not object...yes that is a phone in her hair... it was so funny

I am so glad its summer! HAPPY SUMMER EVERYONE!

Birthdays, Prom, and Other Stuff

Monday is Nick's birthday, and Tuesday is my and Lexi's birthday. So today, Nick got his present and Lexi got hers:

He got a Nintendo DS i, the newest version of it. He was so cute, using it all day!
Lexi got her own phone! So now we don't share one anymore! YAY
Mike went to prom at his school today. (My mom is going to be so mad that I blogged about her son's prom before she did... :) ) He took this really great girl, Amanda, who is so pretty:


Here is a pic of them in front of my pop's car, Lexus to be exact, and its SOOO nice. I want it. Anyways, here they are:Her dress was so pretty too:
My dad was trying to find a good place to take pictures, so he asked me and Lexi to pretend to be Mike and Amanda, and I love this picture because we did the same things with our mouths (except backwards) without planning it: Ok here are some more pics of stuff that has happened recently:

I love these pictures because if you click on the pic and look closely, you can see that our eyes are all different colors!! pretty!

Me, Lex and Karissa in Thomas's carHere I am, concentrating on my shot. Wait, I am actually playing basketball??? I know, I know, surprising. I was in a 3-on-3 basketball tournament the other weekend, and while I did not get hurt that bad, I did bruise up my knees pretty bad. The picture isn't very good, and does not do my bruises justice:Luke being SOOO cute, basically asking me to take pictures of him. I love this boy:

Well, I think I hit everything I wanted to. Goodnight!
