Don't You Love It? (continued)

I am now at my granparent's house. Behind me is a conversation about Twilight. Apparently my Aunt Jennifer and my cousin Stephanie don't think Cedric Diggory from Harry Potter should be Edward in the upcoming movie Twilight. I'm not sure whether I think he's fit for the job or not.
I am also helping my cousins Daryl and Cole make blogs of their own. Cole gave me this brilliant idea to do a Cousin's Club blog. I am the Editor in Cheif of a Cousin's Club newsletter on my Mom's side, and I thought that maybe it would be fun to have a blog shared with cousins. I need to go. There's a crowd coming in and they might want their turn to blog. Ha, ha. The Quote of Today is still the same, but I feel naked to go without it, so...

Quote of Today: We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.

Don't you love it?

Turn off the volume! It's a Sunday!
Ohhhhhh, there are some days that can't be topped. Even with cherries. It's no coincidence that some days are close to Sundays. What I'm trying to say is: today is a good day.
It did get off to a rough start. I mean, who likes to be woken up early the day after a baptism, a lively party, a day with my cousin Jordan, who should be re-named as a Lizzie because she meets all the requirements of a Lizzie, babysitting, and buying the cutest new pair of shorts?
Not me.
Oh, well. I got to go to church where I learned about missionary work and patriarchal blessings. My friend Jessi said we should start a book club. I agreed. What book should we read, though? I feel like I've read every book on the planet, and yet there still is so much I don't know! Books are worth it, though. Speaking of books, who has read that story blog? It is so cool. I think it's called Rising Clan. Lizzy's Stories is a collection of stories, also. Both blogs are listed at the side. If you click on them, a pop up will show, and viola! You are there. These cookies are soooo good!
Tonight, I am going to my grandmother's house for dinner. I was told to bring an EJ super summer camp flier and registration forms. By the way, my Mom and me go shopping for this week's summer camp tomorrow! I am so excited! I'm in charge, and my mind is blowing up with awesome ideas.
I'm gonna go play Lego's now. Ciao! I got that line from Lizzy.

Honored

Dearest Lizzy,
I am very honored to be recognized on your newest blog, Lizzy's Stories. I loved giving you the idea, but you make such a big deal out of things. I had no idea that you were going to set aside a whole new blog for the stories! What an amayzing idea. You always have such good ideas. I love them, and commented on all of them. I expect new chapters, we can't just hear the beggining of things, we need ends! Especially happy ends. Luv ya!
Lizzie

Friday

Today I woke up and thought, 'What day is it?' I guess it's a Friday. How will I know when it's Monday, or Thursday, or Sunday? Hmmmm... Maybe I'll have to keep tallies or something.
This morning my Mom had some company, so I kept busy on my laptop and outside with Esther and Matthew and their friends. I added a couple of blog links to this blog also. They are all very awesome. I promise they will by worth your while. Then, I went babysitting and right now I'm watching The Prince and the Surfer. It's kind of funny. My new favorite word is lanquisate. Whatever that means. Oh, well. Moving on to the Quote of Today.

Summer Camp!

The other day I woke up early to go to the movies. I saw The Dark is Rising: The Seeker or maybe The Seeker: The Dark is Rising or something like that. It was very good, even though I knew a lot of things that were going to happen even before they happened.
Right after that, we went to EJ super summer camp at the park. Janessa had so many good ideas and a lot of kids had a great time. I was in charge of bringing the treat, so I brought otter pops. We had such a great time! I also went today. Both days Janessa was in charge, but I am in charge of next week- Picnic Food. It will by amayzing! Sorry about the mispelling; that's a word that I love to spell funny. Amayzing.
If you look to the side, I have updated a lot of things! Sorry about the A-Z thing being only A-N, I didn't have enough time. And I added music! The blogs that I listed are very cool...
How to be a Book Godess and Other Random Things- by Lizzy, though you do need permision to get in. It's very nicely done.
Bald is Beautiful- by my cousin Brynn, who is absolutly amayzing. It has a lot of heartfelt things in there-check it out!
Janessa's Blog-is by who else-Janessa. She has a cool background.
James's- by Janessa's family. They have a family blog!
Rising Clan- is actually different. It's more like a story. It's worthwhile.
I love them all!
You guys are awesome! Thank you especially to the people who tried to get in when I had it 'Permission Needed' thing on. It was kind of a test to see who is checking. If you complained, I knew that you had tried and it made me feel great.

The sign on the box clearly read.
I don't have a seal, but I'm taking no chances-
I'll toss out my walrus instead.

Saturday, Sunday, Monday

On Saturday, I did my own hair (a ponytail with a cool scrunchy), we went to a firefighters breakfast, Matthew's t-ball game, I ran through the sprinklers and got the worst sunburn ever, and then babysat, and my Mom and me went to Prince Caspian (Very good, by the way)...
On Sunday, Esther, Matthew, and me had a 'dolly day'. I invited my doll, Kit, my stuffed bunny Bonita, and my homemade stuffed pumpkin, Dotaak. Then, we had church and fast Sunday, with the best turkey-mashed potato-ice water dinner ever...
Today, I did my own hair again (two pigtails with hot pink bows) and babysat, watching National Treasure, then left for the American Fork Rec Center with Lizzy to go swimming. We stopped after a middle-aged guy fell unconscious and everybody was evacuated. People said he broke his back or something. Poor guy.
I had piano lessons and my (new) teacher said that she could get me my duet composition notes for a recital. I don't know what to call it yet, but it takes two to play it, and it sounds really neat on the computer when it splits into parts.
After that, we came home to a sign at the park that said, 'EJ super summer camp starts tomorrow! Don't forget to sign up!' I am so proud of Janessa's advertising. It looked really good. Tomorrow is day one and the theme is 'Around the World Olympics.' She has very cool things planned (she's in charge of tomorrow). I'm bringing Otter Pops.
And now I'm planning a Family Home Evening lesson on the Plan of Salvation. It will count towards Personal Progress. Stay tuned. Signing out-

Quote of today: You must be the change you wish to see in the world.

Summer

Yesterday was the last day of school. For those of you who disagree, today was the last HOUR of school.
Lizzy and me had a 'giggle day' yesterday. There was not a single time when we were together that we did not laugh. There was one time that Lizzy and me wanted to prove her theory that whenever a girl comes out of the restroom with a friend, she is laughing... so when we were coming out of the restroom trying to prove the theory, I was about to explode! I wanted so badly to laugh. We then challenged Janessa to go in to the restroom and come out without laughing. She got very close, except she fell over laughing when I exclaimed, 'Peanuts!' What else happened... oh, yeah! After school this boy stayed late and asked me out (I said no), and I had piano after school and did very well. I also got a new watch. What I wanted was cute watch with no Velcro, that is somewhat water resistant. I got it. It's so sweet!
Today was the last hour of school. We started a little late because the teachers were setting up a station in which they would confiscate any of our belongings. It took forever! But I had Lizzy and some other friends to keep me company. I went to my B1 class (Spanish with Senora Thomas) for the last time as a seventh grader. It was fun, we stacked chairs and stocked up on food. Senora Thomas has a tendency to go food crazy (which I love. I'm kind of like that, too, don't you think?), so we were given a ton of Mexican food, like naranja flavored cookies, and an awesome brand of gum- mint, and a loco flavor- pineapple chili, for my Dad. I tried it once, but it was awful. Dad, if you just read that, it's still for you! Don't waste it! My brain was having trouble staying in my head and not blowing out of my ears. I coughed up a storm and drained the drinking fountain. We also played board games. I was Miss Scarlet. I am always Miss Scarlet. I will always be Miss Scarlet. After I came close to winning, we went to the gym, where I met up with Lizzy. We were board out of our minds!
Then the bell rang. School was out!
Lizzy and me ran out (I brought a jeans bag, so we had to wait to get it back) hugging each other, yelling, 'We're eighth graders! We're eighth graders!' I had lost her number earlier, so I got it again, and then we began to talk.
"I'll never forget you!" I said. Yes, it's cheesy.
"Me neither!" said she. I quote that directly...
Then we decided that we will get each other a souvenir for every vacation we take this Summer. For instance, I am going to my family cabin this Summer, so I will get her a rock from the creek or something. She is going to Pennsylvania, so she will probably get me chocolate or something. What should I get her for Seattle?
After we bade our adieus, I went home and soon after, left for a summer party that my Grandmom threw. She is so cool! We ran the slip-n-slide and had a water fight, and I named my special balloon Kanippletwit. Kannippletwit was a big pink balloon with a gold ribbon around the tie. She had a green daughter named Samealoop and a blue son named Quatunaragags. They were evacuated from their home on numerous occasions. I had six slices of Hawaiian pizza- that never happens! Hanging out with cousins is always awesome.
And now I'm watching National Treasure. I love Riley!
I really got some sun today. It hurts everywhere!
I have changed who I let visit my blog. It is now by invitation, so if you are reading this right now, you are very privileged. I got the idea from you, Lizzy. Pure genius!
