sock monkey

This is another post about me being depressed that Ashton and Emma left to go back to Utah. Haha it's kind of a good thing though cause whenever Ashton is here, she makes way too many good cupcakes and desserts, and it's impossible to say no. I actually said no last night to a cupcake, but I gave in and had one after they left today. It was amazing. As usual.They did make it to Utah safely, but not without Ashton leaving Emma's sock monkey here (which makes me cry whenever I look at it, I ended up giving it to my mom) and her carseat and stroller didn't make it to the airport.
On the brightside (somewhat), I ran today. It was only two miles, but I was feeling pretty good cause I was running faster than usual. Then I stopped to fix my hair, roll up my sleeve, etc... and ended up taking walking breaks which I really wasn't planning on doing. Then it started thundering and getting dark (so I was afraid of being kidnapped....one of my worst fears EVER) so I sprinted home. Mom and Casey told me that was the fastest they ever saw me run. Greatttt. It wasn't even that fast.
I ended the day with cleaning my closet some more and watching the Middle and Survivor.
Then I saw Emma's sock monkey and started to cry.

the big apple


This is what I'm really talkin' about!
That's what I'm talking about! Haha jk, we'd never wear those.

Central Park-beautiful.

We saw it in Chicago, and we're gonna see it in New York.




Macon and I have recently decided that for our sixteenth birthday, we are going to go to the Big Apple. It will actually be a little after our birthdays, since we want to go in the Winter. Chances are that we're probably not going to go to New York, but a girl can dream, right? That's what I'm doing anyway. We've already decided everthing we're gonna do. We're going to see a play on Broadway, go to Central Park, shop a LOT, and walk around in our leather boots that we have yet to buy. I actually saw them at Belks a couple of weeks ago, but mom wouldn't let me buy them. Bummer ):

But I'll get them someday...

bad day

Thank goodness for friends and family (:


You know those days, the ones where you stub your toe, drop your papers, get caught with gum in your mouth, have a ton of homework, you're getting bad grades, your room's a mess, nothing is going right? That was Monday, Tuesday, and today for me. I classify my bad days.


1.Bad


2.Worse


3.Worst




Bad- Dropping papers, messy room, forget homework, tired, etc...




Worse-Bombed a test, tripped in front of everybody in gym, Mutual is cancelled, etc...




Worst- Bad report card, got in a fight with your friend, look terrible, feel like you're not loved, etc...




You see where I'm going with this. I don't just have bad days, I have bad weeks. But thankfully, I'm just having a 'bad' day. Not worse and definitely not worst. But when you have days like I'm having, there is always some one to cheer you up....

P.S. Sorry that the pictures are up on top. I don't know why my computer does that >:/

flipped


On Tuesday, I was reading SCOPE (something for Language Arts) and I come across an article entitled:


Flipped.



As I stared at the picture, a distant memory in my head triggered. I had a flashback all the way to fourth grade, of me sitting outside, reading a book I couldn't stop reading. The name?


Flipped.


I loved that book! In the article, it showed scenes of a movie. I started spazzing out!!!! I couldn't believe it was a movie, so I went straight to the internet to see a movie trailer. That was Tuesday, and today, I'm still watching that trailer for probably the hundredth time. That is going to be the BEST. MOVIE. EVER. I am sooooo excited to see it!!!! I don't know when it comes out, or if it has already come out or not, but I'm going to watch it. And soon. To see the preview, go to YouTube and type in 'Flipped movie trailer.' Do it. I promise it'll make your day. And read the book! Here's a picture:

Actually, the picture is on top. My computer is being weird. But buy it. Read it. LOVE IT.

Goodbye, Farewell

Since Saturday, my family has been enjoying an amazing few days at the beach. Cooper had to stay home though ):
Saturday: Everyone except for Ash and Emma went to see Caleb finish his second triatholon. We figured he didn't win anything, so we left. Ended up he won first for his age group! Haha! Then we went to the beach for about half an hour when Cooper and Dad headed back home. The rest of us departed later. We went to Golden Corral for dinner, and we watched Diary of a Wimpy Kid. One of the cutest movies I've ever seen (: It was also POURING rain.

Sunday: We had "church." Haha it was more like family home evening. We waited for Dad to return from home and went to the beach. We played Just Dance and Uno and ate Ashton's amazing moouse (idk how to spell that).

Monday: Mom, Dad, Casey, Caleb and I went running to Food Lion to get breakfast. It pretty much sucked. Haha we had blueberry bagels. YUM! We then went to the beach until it started raining again and we left for home. We had dinner at Andy's and ice cream at Ben and Jerry's. The girls got pedicures and the boys went to go watch Caleb kick football. Then we went bowling!

Tuesday: We went to the beach until it rained again and headed home quickly. We went to Michealangelo's (idk how to spell that either), and amazing Italian resturaunt. We came home and played Uno and ate some more moouse. Afterwards Ashton taught me how to make these ADORABLE headbands!

Wednesday: Ashton, Mom and I went running again. We didn't get breakfast this time. We went to the beach, and now we're packing up to go. ):

We've made soooo many great memories, I don't want to go! )':

P.S. I'll post pics later.
