Sorry

Hey everyone!  How are you?  I am so sorry that I haven't blogged on here forEVER!  I am also sorry that I haven't put any pics in my last few posts.  One thing I have to tell you is that during summer brake, we went to lagoon!  It was AWESOME!  I went on The Rocket and on Wicked and Colossus.  I went on the bat, the spider, tidal wave, and a lot of other ones.  I went with my cousins.  Since, I haven't been to lagoon since I was like 5, it was my first time going on Rocket and Wicked.  I was just about screaming at my cousin when we were falling on Rocket and on Wicked.  I have to admit (don't get mad at me :() that I liked Rocket a little better.  Sorry to everyone who likes Wicked better.

Another thing that happened is I started dance again!  Yay.  I'm very sore.



Okay this is VERY out of the blue but I noticed that I haven't put very many pics of my doggy, Jimmer (,yes I'm related to my dad who is the biggest BYU fan on earth :)).  So here are some pics of him around when we first got him.


 This is little Jimmy in my dad's arms.  Yes he is (or should I say was) very small.

 This is the angel in the car, coming to his new home, from St. George.  (He was actually born in Draper.)

This is little baby in the backyard.  He loves to run around.

 This is me and my precious baby the night we got him.

 This is how small Jimmy is.  He could fit in the palm of your hand! :)

 Okay, I think me and my cousins were a little too obsessed with Easter and with Jimmer.  We put him in this Easter basket.

 This is my all-time FAVORITE picture of Jim.  He is running around in the back yard.  Just look at those adorable ears!:)

 Little J-dog (this is a nickname) in the backyard again.

 Me and Jim again on the night we got him.

 Little Jim in the backyard.  He has some BIG ears. :)

  That's pretty much it!  I hope you liked my post!

A Fun Family Trip to St. George

A little while ago, my family went to St. George for my clogging competition.  It was a lot of fun.  This is the story.  So, first, my dad came and got me and my brothers out of school.  Then, we began our trip.  It was a LONG drive.  It seemed like it took FOREVER!!!  But, I did like watching as red rock would appear more and more.  Anyway, we FINALLY got to our hotel.  I got my costume and makeup on.  Then we went straight to the competition.  I was going to do four solos and one team dance.  I was very nervous and excited when I got there.  So, we got into our lines to go onstage.  I did my solos first.  Then, we went to lunch.  I think we went to Wendy's, but I'm not sure.  Then, we went back to the competition.  I checked my scores.  This is what I got: Line: 1st, Show: 1st, Percussion: 1st, Traditional: 1st!  I was SO excited!  Then, we went back to the hotel.  I relaxed for a little bit.   Then, we went swimming in the hotel's pool.  It was awesome!  We were staying at the Lexington Hotel and they had an awesome pool that was half inside and half outside.  We swam for a long time.  Then went back to the hotel room and went to sleep.  I was SO tired.  I slept like a rock.  The next day, we  went lizard hunting.  My dad drove us to a really rocky area.  He said it was perfect for catching lizards.  He was right.  We ended up catching a lizard.  We named him Max.  He was so cute.  We took really good care of him.  But, my mom didn't approve.  We were mad.  She said before we left to go home, we would have to let him free. :(  But, we cheered ourselves up by going to see a movie.  We went to see The Lorax.  It was really good.  Then, we went home and went to sleep.  The next day, we had to leave. :(  We were so sad because that meant we had to let Max go.  So we let him go outside of the hotel.  But, we caught two more lizards on the way home when we stopped.  Then, we went home.  It felt so good to be home.

P.S.  We got to miss school on Friday because of the trip.  Huh, Kassee?

The End

Random Pics

This is my house right after we bought it.  We still had the "For Sale" sign up then, and we used to have that fountain in our yard but we got rid of it because my parents didn't like it.

This is my mom, Tyler, Derek, and me right after Derek was born.  Tyler and I got some stickers that said "Siblings are special."  

  This is Derek (left), Dad (middle) and me (right) when we lived in New Hampshire.

Our Family Trip to Moab

This June, my family and I went up to Moab, Utah.  This is how our trip went.  First, we drove up to Manti, Utah, to meet my Uncle, Richard, and my Aunt, Wren with their 2 kids, Kinley and Logan.  We met them at our hotel.  While we were at the hotel, we also met my Aunt Holly and Uncle Rob and their 5 kids and my Grandma and Grandpa Martin.   What we did when we got to Manti: we played in our hotels with our cousins.  I mostly like to play with my cousin, Erika.  We played in our hotel rooms together until the Manti Pageant started.  Then we walked up the street to the Manti Temple, where the pageant would be held.  On the way, there were people selling things.  Holly bought some chocolate strawberries that were THE BOMB.  We ate them while we waited for the pageant to start.  When the pageant FINALLY started, we watched as they put on a wonderful show.  When the show finally ended, we all stood up.  This is what Ben (,my brother) said when it was over REALLY loudly: "Yes!  It's over.  That show was SO boring!"  Pretty much everyone could hear him.  I was cracking up.


Anyway, when it was over, we all went back to the hotel (/motel).  Erika and I wanted to have a sleepover but our parents said no.  We were pretty bummed out.  But, we were so tired that we went right to sleep.

The next day, we went to this really cute restaurant right across the parking lot.  It was the coolest place EVER!

Then, we started our long drive up to Moab.  But, when we got there, it was TOTALLY worth the drive.  The only problem was that we had to bring my dog, Jimmer and the hotel everyone else was staying in didn't allow pets.  We had to go to a different hotel down the street that allowed pets.

A little bit later, we went up to some small arches.  They were GORGEOUS!  Here is The Elephant arch.

Jacob

This is Jacob at the hospital.  He is so precious.

This is Jacob when he was coming home from the hospital.  He was born the day before Easter, so we had to celebrate Easter a little bit late that year, but it was worth it! :)

This is Jacob when he was four days old.  My dad is holding him in this picture.  He is the cutest thing I've ever seen!  Look how sweet he is.

This is Jacob for the first time in his HUGE car seat.  He was sooo tiny.

This is Jacob and my mom when Jacob was two days old.  They were both still in the hospital but they were about to come home that very day.

This is all of us kids with Jacob after he had come home from the hospital.

This is me and Jacob at the hospital.  He just melts my heart.  He is so cute!!

I know Jacob is already 1 1/2 and still just as cute but, I just can't help looking back to when he was so little and fragile.  It makes me sad looking at these pictures from April, 2010.  He is getting so big.

Here is a recent pic of him so you can see what I mean.
