  • My Birth

    My Birth
    On September 29, 2000, I was born in the Sierra Vista Hosptial at 9:30a.m in the morning. I weighed in a 6 pounds, 7 ounces, which made me my Mom's smallest child to be born. My birth was definitely a eventful day as it was raining when I was born, I came 4 weeks early, and I broke my mother's water at 4:00a.m in the morning. However, I came out happy and healthy so all was well.
  • First Trip to Disneyland

    First Trip to Disneyland
    Just days after I turned one, I celebrated my first birthday with my family at Disneyland. Since I was only one when we went though, I cannot remember much; but as a tradition we like to celebrate our bithdays whenever possible there. However, I bet I had a great time as everytime I go to Disneyland, my family and I always make great memories that last. Now, some of my most fond memories come from Disneyland.
  • Kindergarten

    Kindergarten
    On August 9th, 2006, I was able to start Kindergarten. When I started, I was excited to learn all about the different subjects, except reading. However, over time as I continued to learn, I began to enjoy to read. By going to Kindergarten, it opened a new outlook for me on schooling, which made me want to do the best I could. To this day, I still keep that outlook on wanting to do my best.
  • Grandpa Barnes Passed Away

    Grandpa Barnes Passed Away
    It was an extremely sad day for my family on April, 12, 2006, as my beloved Grandpa passed away. He cared for his family more than himself. He was kind. loving, supportive, spoiling to his grandkids, and an overall great man. However, when he lost the ability of his arms and legs because of a stroke, it was hard for him to continue on in life. Even though this occurred, he continued on with his life and lived longer than he was ever expected to. He will forever be in my family's memory,
  • Baptized

    Baptized
    On October 4, 2008, I was baptized and confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. At my baptism, several of the church members as well as my family members came to support me, which made me feel special and accepted. My baptism was important as I have learned several valuable lessons from the church which I apply to my life to become a better person.
  • Curly Pup Passed Away

    Curly Pup Passed Away
    On the 4th of July, 2009, my very first dog died. He lived up to be 18 years old and had lived a good life. Everytime I saw the Curly Pup, he came over to me and cuddled as well as watched over us as if we were his puppies. He was a great dog and we were happy to have the time we got with him. His heart and the fireworks just didn't get along that night.
  • Got a new Dog

    Got a new Dog
    On my second older brother's birthday, July 28th, 2006, my family and I were returning from Disneyland and my Dad got a call from one of his co-workers. Her name was Susan and she had heard about our other dog, Curly's, passing and wanted to help out. She knew that we had another dog, named Cupid, and she was lonely due to the passing of Curly. As a result, she gave us a brand new puppy and we call him Cocoa. He's a Dachshund, Papillion, Terrier, Poodle, or a DPTP for short. He is a great dog.
  • Joined Boy Scouts

    Joined Boy Scouts
    On my 11th Birthday, I was able to join the Boy Scouts of America in my area. I was very excited as several of my friends were already Boy Scouts and were looking forward to my arrival. When I was there, we play games, camped out, and just had a great time together. Boy Scouts has played a big part in my life as it has taught me to do my best in all things. It has also taught me to be Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean,and Reverent.
  • Boy Scout Camp

    Boy Scout Camp
    On June 10th, 2013, I went to my very first, week long, Boy Scout Camp. This was a big deal for me as I had never been away from my family for so long before. As a result, it would be a major growing experience. Overall, I had a great time though and was happy I had the experience.
  • Earned Eagle Scout Rank

    Earned Eagle Scout Rank
    On July 15, 2015, I had received word that my Eagle Board of Review was to be held at 6:00p.m in the evening. To me, this was a huge deal as I had been working hard up to this point to receive my Eagle Scout Rank. Also, my oldest brother, who did not get his Eagle because of lost records, told me to get my Eagle done while I was young. As a result, that day I was not just getting my Eagle for myself, but also for my brother. Once the review was over, I was told I was worthy to receive the Eagle.
  • Became an Uncle

    Became an Uncle
    On November 22nd, 2015, my sister-in-law gave birth to a beautiful little girl named Kayli Rose Trejo. That day, I offically became an uncle and appently had a connection to Kayli as she stuck her tongue at me the first time I held her. She did not do it to anyone else, just me. Everytime I hold her to this day, she still sticks her tongue at me, but do it right back at her. In addition, whenever my niece comes over, I can always make her smile and that makes me feel great inside.
