Happy birthday to me!

These are backwards... sorry. This is the first time I've posted pictures... Don't mind Josiah. bratty kid. just kidding.



































My birthday occurred ( I like that word a lot) yesterday, and it was wonderful! So was saturday though, so I'll start there. After dropping Micah and his friends off at football reffing(His birthday was on Friday so he had a sleepover), my Mom and I picked up my friend, Kate Bottelberghe, to hang out for the day. We ate lunch at Panda Express, tried on cool dresses at Kohls, drank Jamba Juice, (I) bought clothes at Susie's Deals, stopped at the Great Salt Lake to climb a cool rock, but to our sadness we missed the exit..... then we all went home. Very fun day! Kate is the funniest person ever to shop with! She picks out these hideous clothes and makes up outfits for every day of the week, smacks clothes making them fall off the hangers( don't worry, she picks them up afterwards).... she made me laugh all day long.
Then on Sunday my family gathered at our home to celebrate Micah's, Ashley's, and my birthdays. We ate yummy food, opened presents, and had dessert. It was tons of fun! Except it was the first family party in a long time that lacked the presence of our beautiful, glass punch bowl that sadly shattered to death last week. Also it will hopefully be the last party without baby goats!! My female goat, Trinity(I did not name her), is supposed to have babies this week. She'll probably have them Thursday just to make me mad. I'm leaving for ATF on Friday.... Well that is it! I hope it wasn't too boring to read for ya'll! Adios.

Even though....

...people say homeschoolers just sit around all the time doing whatever they want, that's definately not how it is for me! My weeks and weekends are booked until after May 3rd. I have school every single day and studying a ton.....
This weekend I'm painting at Caleb's house, participating in a fundraiser for Acquire the Fire, and a meeting for Mexico. The next weekend is my birthday weekend, so my friend Kate and my mom and I are spending the day in Salt Lake trying lots of new things and then I am having a combination birthday party with Ashley and Micah on Sunday. And the next weekend I'm going to Denver for a conference called Acquire the Fire.....

So I'm very busy! And I like it a lot! That's why I never blog.... I've wanted to blog about big issues like social engineering and justice and other topics that I've been learning about. But they would take a long time.... and I never find that time. Hopefully I will soon! God bless you!
