Owl Rocks-

This Friday I did a fun craft with my mom, sister, and friend Katie. We made these cute owl rocks. They are simply regular rocks painted to look like owls! They turn out really really cute, and its really fun to pick out the colors to paint them. Yesterday I made some more with my sister and brother while watching Conference. Here are the ones we made on Friday-

I think we like cats......

We have a new kitten!!!! No, the old one didn't die.... But my brother has been wanting a grey kitten for a really really long time, so we now have one! We haven't named him yet so we have been calling him Little Meow, but he is Orlando I and Orlando II's little brother. He is soooooooo cute! Yesterday was my brothers birthday (he's now 14) and we were able to get the kitten yesterday, so it was a perfect Birthday present. It was also special because I have a new baby cousin that was born yesterday. Happy Birthday Corry and Keton, and welcome to our home Little Meow!

On the floor....


On the windowsill....


Under the couch...


On the kitchen table...


On the dining room table...


In the bathroom sink...


And on the kitchen counter...

Yep, this is our new kitty, and he likes to..... be in places he shouldn't be. I have an unfortunate habit of taking pictures of him when he get on the table, instead of taking him OFF the table....

Ode to Orlando

As some of you may know, my kitty Orlando passed away in June. I thought I would post some picture of him to show you what a pretty cat he was. He also used to make very weird faces, as you can see. We now have a new kitty, named Orlando Too, so I will post some pictures of him soon. I miss you, Orando!

The evening sky

These are some pictures I took from our deck. The sky gets so pretty every evening, I love it. I am glad I took these pictures, I think they are really pretty. :)

McKenna is home!

As many of you may know, my little sister McKenna has been very sick lately. She had to stay in the hospital for 9 days, but now she is home! We are very happy to have her home again, we missed her a lot!


She is recovering fairly quickly, and is feeling a lot better. She did not like staying in the hospital (who would?) but she was very very brave, and is a super awesome little girl. We love you McKenna!

EFY 2011

This Summer, I went to a youth camp type of thing called EFY, or, Especially for Youth. It was super fun, and a really good experience. I gained a stronger testimony of the scriptures, and I made a lot of new friends! While I was there, I also met up with some friends from home, it was super duper awesome to see them! I went to EFY at BYU Provo. I LOVE staying on campus! I plan on going to BYU Provo or Idaho in 2 or 3 years, and I love the experience of staying there. I went to EFY at BYU Provo last year as well, but I went with my cousin Franklin. (who is awesome) This year I flew to Utah by myself, and my cousins picked me up from the airport. I stayed with them for a night then went off to EFY! I didn't know anyone in the group, including my room mate, but it was ok because everyone was nice! It was super awesome and I am glad I could go!

Here are some pictures from while I was there:


This was on the first day of EFY when my cousins were dropping me off. I was excited!


Here are all the girls in my group. They were all really nice!


My room-mate Mallory and I. Mallory is from Washington, and was really nice! I had never met her before, or anyone else in my group. It was fun to get to know so many different people!


This was the whole group. We ate together, and did all of our activities together for the whole week. They were all really interesting!


This picture is of Marianne, Emma, and I. Marianne and Emma go to my once a week school, and we didn't even plan to go to EFY the same week! I was soooooo glad they were there, it was really nice to see them.he first day of EFY, when my cousins were dropping me off. I was excited!
