  • Started Jr. High

    Started Jr. High
    A lot changed my Jr. high year. I learned how to actually organize things and keep my life on focus. I met a lot of new people from choir festival, band festival and on our jr. high music tours. I grew taller and came to love basketball. I learned that doing sports in fun and that being active is good for your body. I also learned that I have the capability of getting good grades!
  • My Baptism

    My Baptism
    I got baptized by my churches' main paster, Paster Keith Jacobsen. He has always been a close friend of mine and thats why I chose him to baptize me instead of anyone else that could have. I got baptized when I was 13 years old because my sister also got baptized when she was 13 years old. It was an important event and choice in my life.
  • 8th Grade Graduation

    8th Grade Graduation
    My 8th grade graduation was like any other 8th grade graduation: short, but fun! But, I WAS my 8th grade graduating class' president! I had to write a presidents address for the graduation; I wrote about our past experiences from our jr. high years and how we are so diverse, but close. After our graduation, we had a really fun after party!
  • Started High School

    Started High School
    Now, my high school year currently is amazing. From music, to sports. I am really involved in a lot of things. I am currently in my freshman year. I was on football and the junior varsity basketball team which was really fun. I am vice president of my class while I am an officer-at-large on my schools student association board. But, I can't wait to finish high school altogether.
  • Started Highschool Football Season

    Started Highschool Football Season
    My freshman year flag football season was the best. I had a boat load of fun playing halfback. Our team wasn't a very good one and we didn't win a whole lot of games since our seniors all graduated, but we will be better next year since we all know the game now. I hope to be playing halfback next year also.
  • Grandma Died

    Grandma Died
    My grandma was amazing. She would always make me food in elementary school when we went to their house after school. She would always babysit me as a kid and I'm so sad that the passed away. She passed on Thanksgiving actually and right after we left my grandparents house from Thanksgiving lunch.
