4th of July... and other random things I've been up to recently!

For the 4th of July we all went up to Estes! We had some fun around town and then set up tents and BBQ'd and then watched the fireworks! We all had such a blast!

The 4th of July pancakes we made!

Kayla Marie Adsit

1 year ago today my friend Kayla was killed in a tragic car accident. Her best friend, Mayan, was driving the car. Mayan was hurt, but only speant one day in the hospital. It was a beautiful, sunny friday afternoon when she was killed. My 4th hour of the day had been cancelled, so I was waiting by the choir doors for my mom. Kayla and Mayan were trying out for a solo for the choir I was in with them. As they left school that day they walked by me, we had a conversation. I told them that they sounded great and we talked about our weekends. As they left school we exchanged "have a good weekend" and "see you Mondays"s. That night Kayla was killed. I miss her a lot. I hurt for her family and Mayan and others also hurt by this accident. RIP Kayla Marie Adsit.

stressed

So, as you can probably tell by my last post, I'm a little bit stressed with everything I have going on. And with that, my mind isn't 100% there. So, as Stephanie pointed out, It is May, not March. Also, another thing I have going on in May is that my baby niece is going to be born around the 25th. I'm super excited to be an Aunt again, but really sad I won't be there when the baby is born. But, I get to go out in June and see the baby, I'm really excited about that. I'm sure I have even more going on in May, but I really can't remember.

Oh yeah, got my hair cut today. I decided I wanted some blonde highlights, but my hair is stubborn and wouldn't take the color, so we had to bleach it. Nobody freak out, I'm still a redhead, my hair is just a lot lighter than it used to be. I'll get a picture up at some point. I'm still adjusting, but I think I like it!

March!

Wow! I can't believe it's already March. March is going to be a very busy month for me. I'm super excited for all of it but also really sad because this means that it's all ending really soon. I feel like the one thing I've been working up to my entire life is quickly approaching, and it's wierd to be this close to it. For all my life I've always just been able to say "I'll do that next year". Well, I'm running out of next years. Next year will be my very last year in high school. And this is the last month of school I will ever have with about 90% of my friends. At the end of this year most of the people I care about will graduate. I want it to be done with, but I'm also so scared of it being over.

But, May should be a very exciting month! I'm getting my hair cut and highlighted tomorrow. I'm not doing much of a drastic change, I've always been too scared of wrecking my hair to do too much with it, but it's time for a little bit of a change. Then saturday I'm going out to Greeley to take my baby niece to her soccer game! I'm really excited about that. Then the 7th of the month is my sister, Cee Cee's birthday, the 11th is my cousin, Lauren's birthday, the 16th is one of my best friend, Lauren's birthday, the 22nd is Josh's birthday. Then the 24th is graduation. School ends on the 30th or something like that. I also have a HUGE college level research paper due on the 21st. That scares me! I'm guessing this month will pass by really quickly, I'm just worried it will be too quickly.

My New Baby Nephew!

Dancing in the Rain...

and snow

It was the first really big rain storm of spring, so Lauren, Lizz and I went outside and danced in the rain! We had a blast with it, until it started hailing on us, that hurt a little bit. But we were determined to stick it out and dance in the rain! We soaked through everything we were wearing, and then ran out to get something warm from starbucks!
