Heritage Tours July 2009

Ok so I havent been the best at writing on this blog, but I really havent had something interesting to say... but now I do..

Here are some pictures from Heritage tours and my graduation.

This is Brother Toone, one of the leaders on Heritage Tours. I love this guy! :)

My best friend Sarah Quintero.

oh wow! senior year has pushed me towards being my true crazy self. My thinking is that its my last year so why not live it to the fullest. :)

this picture proves my insanity.

I went to a homecoming football game with a few friends and we decied to paint our faces and make shirts with a quote on them from our good friend Tyler Bleyl who had just died the day before. So we thought that this would cheer us up. The shirts said "Chill or be chilled. ~Tyler Bleyl" He had said that quote one day in Engligh class for an assignment we were doing and we thought it was the funniest thing ever!

WE MISS YOU TYLER!! RIP

I cut my hair!!!

Its actually very tragic. My hair used to be down to my lower back. Now its pretty much half that. ha. no.. its more like 6 inches off. anyway, I think its tragic.
Although... My hair curls easier and its more bouncy........ all I can say is it grows back easily.

My life is just as crazy as usual. I'm not to good at keeping journals so my apologies.
School is going pretty good. I'm making friends almost every day and doing more activities now that I can drive. YAY!

I went to Tepanyaki with one of my friends, Janelle, a while ago. Just the two of us. It was really fun and entertaining. We have a plan to go there again except this time with actual dates so THEY can pay! ;)
It is tradition there to have the customers try and catch a piece of food in their mouth. As the chef went from person to person he finally came to Janelle and me. I came first and when I caught it in my mouth, he said "Way to go Champ!" Then after finighing the rest of the people at our table he then came back to me and said "ok, now lets see if you can do it again." He threw the food at my mouth and I caught it again. He proceeded to throw them one by one until I had caught 4 in a row. I felt like a seal but everybody at my table was cheering and from then on Janelle agreed to call me "Champ". That, I must admit, was the highlight of my dining experience.



When it was all over, and everyone was getting their checks, we got up the courage to ask the waiter if she could take a picture with us. (It was manditory for this assignment we were doing, also the reason why we were AT this rediculously expensive place) The woman was very hesitant and tried to persuade us to take it with the host, but we explained that it had to be taken with her. She said, "Oh shoot" and agreed to take it with us. As I had a stranger, sitting by us, take the picture, she says out loud, "awkward!!" haha! that was the funniest thing to hear!
That night was so much fun and I cant wait to go again!

Just a bunch of "models"

My Friend Micah, her cousin, and I went to the American Fork Cemetary and took pictures and just had a bunch of fun. Micah is just so beautiful. She is on her mission right now in Paris France. My family is so proud of her.

This is Gennine, Micha's cousin. She is such a model! :)

EFY 2007

EFY was so much fun! I went in August 13-17th at BYU idaho. It was very hot up there and I wished I would have brought a fan to cool me down in the appartment. but I had an amazing time! I made many friends, the lessons and teachers were awesome and I've many memories that will be hard to forget!



This picture,>>>>>, is everybody in my company. There was over 200 people there at that EFY group that week. I like the smaller groups. You get to meet more people that way.

I'm on the first row sitting down on the chairs.












This picture,<<<<, was on the day that we had the competitions and our skit. VERY FUN!
Brittan, >>, was involved in a water fight we had that day. :)

These are my best friends that I made up there. I'm on the left, then Maren is in the middle and Elise in on the right. Those two were hilarious and they both live in california.

This is me, Kevin and Lauren. EFY was so amazing!
