MAY!!!

WOW!!! Last year I thought I was doing bad for not updating my blog in 2 weeks but now its been about.... a little over a month! I guess I just need to get better at this! Maybe It'll go better with summer... or maybe not! My summer is pretty booked! Well anyways the beginning of May me, Rachael, and Mikayla all had to do a project for English where we made a dinner from a different country. We chose to make something from England! We made Fish and Chips (which was like fish and then fry type things) and we also made a strawberry banana smoothie! It was actually not to bad! Here are our pictures from that!

me and Mikayla hard at work and Rachael in the back eating...Typical!!! haha JK I LOVE these girls!!!

ok....Well it said they had to be dried and we didn't want to wait forever so.... we got the blow dryer out!!:)

Surgery....
my grandma had to get a knee replacement so she was in the hospital for a week. my mom was always there and so we decided to go and visit her... well we visited often but this is the only time we have documented:)
Ashley, Kirsten, Mikail, Cole, me, Tyler, and Derek
I think Tyler and Derek had a little to much fun!! We were laughing so hard at them though! They were rolling around on the wheelchairs haha it was great! An 18 year old and a 24 year old haha! Ok and then I also have to put this picture on here from Spring Break!! Its great!
all of us girls in the same jacket!! What could be better?!?!? Haha I am wearing that jacket in a lot of these pictures it seems like.....hmmm haha

DANCIN' IN THE MOONLIGHT!!!!!!!
The time finally came for our 9Th grade night dance!!! It was so much fun! Because I was on Student Counsel I had to help plan it and such. It took such a long time to plan for it! On the Thursday before we were at the school from 8 in the morning to 9:30 at night!! And then on Friday we were at school from 8 in the morning to 10:30 at night! It was such a fun dance and everyone had such a fun time!! All the time we spent into it was worth it! It looked amazing!!! Here are some pictures from it!
Making stars!! We hated those things!! That was our life for a couple of weeks! We had to make 500! And after the dance we ended up throwing them away! And we didn't even use all of the stars!!!!
Chelsea, Brelynn, Teysia, Riley, me, Natalie, Rachael, and Whitney
We had about a half an hour that we could run home and change before we had to be back!
I was teaching Brody how to do the waltz:)
toasting with the cream puffs!
After the dance.....We were so tired!!! And we had to help clean up after the dance!! Oh man that was a long night! But so FUN!!!

After the dance and all of our Student Counsel duties we walked over to Kohlers, Wendy's and Subway to go to lunch!have you ever had the desire to lay in the road?!?!? We did!!
Me, Rachael, Olivia and Mikayla all went to Kohlers!

While we were waiting for everyone else... we got a little bored. We brought a little friend with us on our trip! His name was Simba!!! See if you can spot him in these next pictures!:)

The last week of school on one day was the 5K day and 9Th grade day! It was very fun! We went on the 5K then had an assembly from Comedy Sports for the 9Th graders! After that they had a carnival in the park. Me, Rachael, Olivia and Mikayla didn't want to do that so we walked over to my house and went swimming! After swimming we got a little bored and took more pictures:) here are the pictures from that adventurous day!
