17th Birthday

Well, now that I'm a blogger pro- here's my 17th birthday! The fam and I went to Carraba's for dinner. It was way good, I got manicoti in honor of Nolan because he made it for us once (his was better although!) Anyway, then we came home and opened presents and I got *drum roll please...* A NEW DIGITAL CAMERA!! Yeah!! This will make the blogging even easier now that I'm addicted to taking pictures all the time. Even my friend Jarhett said that the new camera was getting old fast after I took the 7th candid shot of the night. :)
After presents, all of my friends came over for cheesecake and my friends Mary and Chandler even brought me a yummy pineapple cake. Mary and I decided that we're going to open a restaurant together and I'll do main dishes and she'll do desserts.Here's Melissa, Amy, Mary, and Chandler just hanging out at my house.

And here's Madisen and Jarhett...
For my birthday, Madisen got me a goldfish (she got me a bowl and a goldfish last year too, but the fish died in one day). The goldfish she got me this year died in less than 12 hours, so we went to return it and get a different one and the fish lady informed us that goldfish have to live in an aquarium, they can't live in fish bowls. So, she told us the only kind of fish that can live in a bowl and we got that one. This will make RaeAnn happy because the fish we got was a beta fish! :) I named him Jamie, and here he is swimming happily in his new home.

Six Flags Trip

Hey, RaeAnn reminded me that I didn't put any pictures from my six flags trip up. I went to Six Flags with my physics class. The physics teachers take their students to six flags every year. We left at midnight Friday night, got to the park 30 minutes before it opened and stayed til it closed. We didn't get home until like 5 in the morning on Sunday. But it was REALLY fun. I hung out with my friends, Kelsey, DJ, and Brenton. And 4 is like the perfect number for a roller coaster trip.This is us four on Viper...(sorry these pictures are a little blurry. We each got one free picture that they take when you're on the ride so we all got one and copied them and gave them to each other) Kelsey and I are in the back, DJ and Brenton in the front (from left to right)

This is the first time we road Tatsu. It was the scariest but also the funnest...(if you can't read it, it says "fly at the speed of fear" on the picture; so true)

Here's Brenton, Me, and Kelsey on Scream. DJ didn't ride that one with us cuz he didn't want to have to wait in the long line...instead he went and got drenched on a water ride...karma.

And finally, this is us 4 on Tatsu for the second time. We weren't as scared this time, so we did a pose for the picture...except for DJ who was still too scared to let go. Ha ha. But the whole trip was way fun. We're thinking we'll make it a yearly tradition.

Junior Year

So, I couldn't figure out how to get on my old blog...so I had to create a new one!! Sorry! So, I had to start a new one. I didn't get a chance to take a lot of pictures this year, (my junior year) because I was really busy!! But I will just post some highlights to give you a cliff-notes version of my fun year as a junior.This is the cool water show that you see at the end of Ocean's Eleven, yea Madisen and I went to it when we went to Las Vegas for Spring break...just the two of us!! It was sooo fun. We stayed in her grandparents house and it is a mansion. I'm not even over exaggerating, I've never seen a house that big. I would put pictures of the house on here, but there are way too many and it would take too long.

Drew and I went to winter formal together...>


This is our Winter Formal group.^

So, this is how I asked Quinton to Sadie's. We printed this picture out and cut it into a puzzle and left it taped to his gate...











We had a lot of fun at Sadie's...Do we look like a cute couple? ha ha...^
This is my whole group at Madisen's house. We ate dinner there before the dance....

Those are basically all of the events that took place that I have pictures of from my junior year! I hope you enjoyed the quick over view.
