Viewmont Prom

Being 5'3" and having a date who is 6'7" is an adventure...

Davis Prom 2011

After the Priesthood session of General Conference, Cody Preszler came to my house and asked me in person to go to the Davis High Prom with him. Of course, I said yes. I felt so bad for the kid though. My grandma S. was sitting on the couch and my dad was standing on the stairs. They both just stared him down. Before he left, my dad had to tell him to be 10 minutes early to picking me up so he could be questioned. My mom said he better bring his resume and I said he might as well bring his temple recommend. We said something about a bow and arrow and a gun...As he was leaving, he looked at me very worried. "Is your dad serious?" Of course I smiled as said "Yep!"

Our activity was very fun. Our group went to Walmart and played hide-and-seek. Cody and I won the first round and found Karl and his date, Melissa, during the second round. After that, we went and played at a park and had pizza. It was very fun. The dance was enjoyable too. The girls felt so special with all the guys in the group trying to be perfect gentlemen. It was cute.







I happened to get asked to the Viewmont High School Prom by my friend Nathan. There were balloons shaped into what was supposed to be a crown and in each balloon was a crayon with a letter of his name on it.

Boys will be Boys

I had the opportunity to babysit four little boys the other night. The oldest is 8, then 5, then 3, and 8 months. I was sitting and watching them play the wii thinking about their family. Four boys, not girls...I just had to ask them if they wanted a sister. I got some funny responses.

8-year-old: No. I don't like girls.
5-year-old: Yes. Then there would be more kids to play with!...and...I kinda like girls.

I asked if they had any friends that were girls. The 8-year-old didn't, the 5-year-old had a lot, and the 3-year-old had one. I told them that a lot of my friends are guys to which I got the response...

3-year-old: AND THEY ARE NICE TO YOU?

I sent them up to get ready for bed and stayed downstairs for just a minute. I heard something about a toilet and ran up to see what in the world was going on. I got up there just in time to see the 3-year-old standing with both feet in the toilet. All three older boys had wet hair. EWWWWWW! I told them that they should not play in the toilet because that is very gross. Their only responses were...

Boys: We put our hands, fingers, feet, and heads in there! It's not gross to us! We are boys!

(Boys are disgusting!)

Bananagrams!

I used every gram to make a giant set!

Spelling...

I started being creative this year and making a scrap book for my best friend for Christmas. Alex was watching me and we were having a good old time with lots of giggling and belly laughing. I thought of a clever way to write "French Horn" but wanted to make sure it worked. I simply asked Alex how to spell french horn and he replied, "wait...F-E-R...."
Later, I tried a harder word for Alex. Symphonic. Hy tried. "S-I-M-P-H..." At least he got the P-H.
Alex is actually a very good speller, but when we get laughing and all crazy-like, we siblings seem to struggle with the easy stuff.
The Next Day, I was scrapbooking again and I used the word 'sauce' but spelled it 'sause.' Alex was the one to correct me this time.

How Old?!?

Wow...A lot of my friends have been turning 16 within the last few months. A lot of them are going on their first date to the Halloween dance on Saturday. I can't believe it! They are all leaving me while I'm 15 and stuck at a marching band competition (but I love band so it's okay) to go on a date! This is crazy! 16 years old just seems so old (no offense mom). 123 days till it's my turn to become 'old!' (I do love you mom.)

We went and saw "Lion King" in SLC. It was really fun and amazing! There is a lot of talent in this world! I loved Rafiki! Although, Alex has been obsessing over "Lion King" now. He sings it in the shower and around the house. Of course, I'll join in and Kayla would join too, but I'm started to get a little annoyed with it now...He already has it memorized...
