Thanksgiving

Who knew what a little sleep could do for someone? Break came at the right time!

Sooooo, I asked to preference....and he said yes! I was so excited! (if not a little giddy) hehehe
Now that I have my date secured, all I need is a dress and date ideas....hmmmmmm anywho :)

I'm so glad it's Thanksgiving! I love this time of year! (even if I already started listening to Christmas music :) ) but it's a fun time and fun people and delicious food! I can't wait!

I'm grateful for:
Good friends that are amazing and who love me for who I am
Amazing family that love me no matter what
Good health, I can move around and I'm not confined to a bed or wheelchair
This country, I have all the freedoms I could ever hope for
Good music to listen to
My flute! (I love my little Bobby! :) )
Band (nuf said!)
Technology to be able to communicate and simplify my life
Modern Medical wonders, I can survive anything!
Scriptures, I can find answers to my problems
Prophets, they tell me what I need to hear
People that are considerate and sweet, people that actually listen to you when you talk and remember things that you've said, even in passing :)
My Diabetes, I have learned so much from it. It still is sometimes a weakness, but it's turning into a strength
Shoes, I just love shoes! and I'm glad I don't have to go barefooted everywhere
The military, those that sacrifice their lives for the people that don't even know them or their sacrifice
My hair, weird I know, but I really like my hair and it's soft-ness :) it keeps my head warm
Love, it guides our every actions
Laughter, without it my world would be worthless
Life!

These are just a few of the things that I'm grateful for but it's always good to have a list :)

Happy Thanksgiving!

BaNd ToUr!!

This year was my last year to go on band tour, and I had a wonderful time with all of my wonderful fluticorns! They are all, seriously, my best friends! I love them all so dearly and I'm so glad that I got to be their section leader this year. I hope I made a good, lasting impression on them and hope that they have as good as a time as I was able to have for the last four years...I am really going to miss band, in all of it's...interesting qualities. But, I will never forget the amazing experiences that I've had, as well as all the friends I have made. 
I can never explain what band is like, I can never express the amazing feeling that you feel there, or what it feels like to give everything you have into an 8 minute performance, knowing that if you lose or not is all based on what others think of it and that your personal performance means nothing in sight of the band as a whole.
Or the feeling of winning! The inexpressible joy and happiness that overcomes you! It's the best feeling in all the world!
I'm so glad that I chose to do marching band. It was probably one of the best decisions that I've ever made. I pretty much would not be the person that I am today without it. I'm truly going to miss band. I'm so glad to have gone off the field as a winner...with a big medal around my neck, a sign of my bursting happiness and joy! Saturday was probably the best day!!
This was probably the best band tour I've ever been on. I'm so sad it's over already!!! But thankful to have been a part of it!

Pictures to come soon! Be prepared!

Fun Fun!

Today was a wonderful day! I wish more Tuesdays could be like this one!
I had a bunch of fun with Cambri, Kayla, Callie, Caitlin and Abby just hangin' with Adam. We just spent the whole day just talking and it was super fun!
I hope he didn't think it was awkward with a bunch of girls hanging out with him...much less some that he doesn't really even know. But I had fun :D

Good days

You know those days, when it's just a super good day? When nothing bad really happened, and if it did, you didn't really seem to notice? Just everything seems to go good and you're lovin' life? Yeah...today was that kind of day, and not for anything in particular. Just a super good day :)
