Happy New Years Eve!!!

Katie and I spent the day together and had a blast. And of course there was a lot of picture taking (no duh!)

Then I went to church for our New Years Eve party!

Today I went to the mall with my siblings and Sam and Isaac pretty much right when I got home.

But anyways, we went to Toys 'R' Us and were riding the bikes and stuff and one of the workers told us to get off. haha it was funny.

p.s. I bought and I <3>

We left yesterday.

One of the pictures is of the main lodge area with the water park behind it. And the other picture is in the gr8-space room. It's just a cool hang out room that had a bunch of t.v.'s for video games (like guitar hero) and watching football. They also had a bunch of computers in there too which was really cool.

-once again, I loved the lights!

All day on Sunday we spent at the Great Wold Lodge. The water park part was really fun. We were literally in the water for hours. But then at night when we go tired of swimming, we went to the arcade and played games, won tickets, and got prizes. My favorite part though was the lighting. For some reason that type of lighting just is so cool to me. I just like how it makes white things glow.

It's AWESOME!!!!

On Saturday one of my best friends Hannah came up from Portland and spent the night. We stayed up really late, but it was fun because we hadn't seen each other in such a long time and we were both glad to spend time together.

*I've been gone because I was at The Great Wolf Lodge with her and her parents. It was great!

I just love my new moccasin slippers! They are just so comfortable.

Today I left the house for the first time since Tuesday. It was great just to get out. But the snow was all slushy and wet, so I was happy when I got home, put on my pajamas and got warm and cozy!

Merry Christmas!

Well, I woke up to a white Christmas (surprise surprise), but I must say that it was quite beautiful. No matter how much I'm getting sick of it.

Since we opened presents last night this morning we got to look forward to our stockings. It's always fun, and this is everyone's mess that got spread all over the table...it still looks like this too.

66/365

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE!!

My parents decided that we were going to open all of our presents tonight.

So we did, and I couldn't be happier.

I loved everything that I got, especially A PHONE!!!

oh it was a wonderful day!!!

65/365

I said I wasn't going to leave my house all day today, and I didn't.

I'm too tired to do anything and I just want the snow to go away.

This picture shows our present and tree area before it gets messy and destroyed tomorrow.

Yesterday was quite the adventure...

My family and I took two buses and a 10 block walk to get to our church for the Toy & Joy distribution. We were there all day and by the time we got home I was so tired!

I just want the snow to go away.

My Winter Wonderland.

Man this so called "blizzard" is crazy. We got about six inches last night and it has just been crazy trying to get around everywhere.

This is the view from my church. Even though I'm not a big fan of the snow, I must admit that it makes everything look so beautiful. 

And for some reason whenever it snows it always reminds me of Narnia.

....it's still snowing (very hard)

62/365

Spent the day at the ARC with my brother and the Fowlers. It was really fun. 

Sam was taking pictures of people, Isaac was cutting, I put them in cards, and Graham was recording everything.

Towards the end we all got a little crazy,

This is Graham, Josh and Melisa!

61/365

Katie, Summer, Kelsey, Allyn and I all had dinner together tonight.

It was the first time that the five of us have done something together like that in a long time. We all went to Spiros and gave each other our Christmas presents. It was great!

*I didn't take the picture of the 5 of us (but I just had to add it)

and the other picture of the AWESOME wrapping paper that Katie wrapped my present in.

<3

Ok, I swear after today I'm done posting more than one picture...for reals.

Today we had another snow day and I was very very very bored!

But me and my dad walked to my orthodontist in this crazy weather and I took pictures of my dog outside because she loves the snow and she's so pretty!

SNOW DAY

I'm so confused though, so we had a snow day today but it didn't even snow last night. It just started snowing right now.

but anyways....Katie came over today and we just chilled.

we watched a movie and then took a bunch of pictures on my sister's computer using photobooth!

it was fun!

58/365

I was feeling very cozy today.

Do you like my "hanging out at home and don't have anything to do or anywhere to go" outfit?

This is what it consists of:

1. a black and white striped tank top

2. a bright yellow long sleeve t-shirt

3. a green, blue and pink sweater

4. black leggings

5. red and green (Christmas) plaid pajama shorts

6. then one fuzzy blue sock and one fuzzy pink sock.

oh and I kind of just woke up from a nap...=)

My outfit might totally clash, but I am definitely comfortable and finally warm!

57/365

why oh why is it so cold?

Are all of these coats, hats, gloves and scarves really necessary?

I don't like it at all. I just want to be warm, and that's not happening.

56/365

This is proof that that Isaac kept missing when he was trying to hit me with snowballs
The backyard

IT SNOWED!

enough said...

Yesterday I went and took some pictures at richmond beach. But they aren't that good.

So this is all I got.

I just think the beach is so pretty.

Today was a pretty darn good day, well duh...IT'S FRIDAY!!!!

But it was cold, rainy and windy all day long and everybody thought that it was going to snow (I'm so glad it didn't).

I hung out at Katie's house for a little bit after school before I picked Lauren up from her school.

Then I got home and went over the to Lutcher's house until youth group,

Then we all went to the mall for youth group to sit at the tree and I did pretty much all of my christmas shopping. It was amazing!

Afterwards we were all going to go to candy cane lane but it doesn't start until tomorrow... so everyone just went home.

That kind of sucked, but I had fun hanging out with my friends ALL DAY!

This picture is just one of the streets that we went down tonight....

and I really hope that it doesn't snow!

During digital photography Abby and I were just walking around talking pictures and for some reason we spent a lot of our time around this puddle.

We were just throwing things in it to see the ripples and I was trying to take pictures of them.

I just love reflections...and puddles!

52/365

Tonight I went with my dad to count kettles at church for my first time this season.

This is the pile of all the kettles that we all counted.

oh how I love the christmas season!

51/365

Nothing really exciting happened today. I was just having fun with my camera at lunch time and this is what I got. 

My converse and a hallway full of lockers.

50/365

We finally decorated our tree (that my dad cut down in our front yard) with lights and ornaments.

This is the view from the window outside.

Just stunning!

49/365

I went to the Spaghetti Factory tonight!

I haven't been there in the longest time and forgot how much I loved it.

It's AMAZING!

this is just my leftover box.

The Wikle Family (Eve, Chris and Erin)!

This morning I took pictures of the Wikles because they asked me if I would for their Christmas picture. I took quite a lot, but this was just one of them.

They are so cute!

I just couldn't decide whether I liked it better in color or black and white. So I might change it.

47/365

I got my third hole pierced today with Katie.

We went together because at this time last year we got our second hole done together and we wanted to keep the tradition.

I love earrings!

46/365

Oreo's and milk have got to be the best combination anyone could've come up with!

I went to the store today with my mom and she said I could pick something out and I decided to get the holiday oreos with red creme in the middle and pretty winter pictures printed on the cookie!

45/365

Don't you love it when you first walk into a place and you can smell something that's baking right away?

 My mom baked a chocolate cake today and I could smell it right when I walked in the door.

Then she had to leave and I got to frost it....

....and I'm really bad a frosting cakes. And trust me, it's possible!

i just realized that this picture doesn't even make this look like a cake...haha...oops!

44/365

Graham and I walked over to Fred Meyer tonight to watch our friends play christmas carols!

We only stayed for like 5 minutes though because it was raining and we were tired of just standing there.

But good job guys!

(Oscar, Katie, Isaac, Sam, Moriah and Mejee)

43/365

Janell and I volunteered at the Toy & Joy tree for 4 hours tonight!

42/365

I spent about 6 1/2 hours today with Graham, Mejee, Sam and Isaac today.

I had a great time with them walking around the mall (haha) and then seeing The Dark Knight at the crest!

I realized that it's good to hang out with guys every once in a while. They are just so much more relaxed and fun to be around sometimes. And not to mention that there is a whole lot less drama involved!

This picture is us at 711 getting food before the movie!!
