First Trip to the Dentist
My first trip to the dentist was when I was about 1 1/2. I fell off the couch and hit my front tooth on the coffee table. The dentist told my parents that it could turn yellow, gray, or black. I was lucky and it only turned yellow so it wouldn't had been as noticeable if it had been black or gray. This trip to the dentist was important because it went on record on why my tooth turned yellow. -
I Have a Sister
I was 2 1/2 years old when my sister Jenna was born. We argue a lot but they don’t last very long ever just like any other siblings. Jenna loves to do hair and make up, which is the complete opposite from what I like to do. This event is important because now I'm the older sister and not the only child in the family. -

First Day of Kindergarten
I was five years old on my first day of Kindergarten and I was very nervous. I remember meeting my teacher and having her for the school year, she is still one of my favorite teachers to this day.

It turned out we were best friends all of the way through grade school. This event was important because it was the start to my education. -
The Shinn Dig
This event was important to me because I met a lot of my mom's side of the family. I met my second aunts and uncles and lots of cousins. I was only six years old so I don't even really remember half of the people I met. -
Breaking My Elbow
I broke my elbow when I was nine years old. I fell off the balance beam on a night that I had gymnastics. I had a sling for about six weeks.

Disney World
My family and family friends drove to Florida in 2009 to go to Walt Disney World. We were there for a week and we stayd in a condo and went to a different part of the park everyday.

I Started to Play Tennis
Not exactly on this day did I start to play tennis but sometime around this year. Tennis is the best sport and it is SO much fun. I wish I would have started playing a lot earlier beacuse I don't know what I would do without this amazing sport. Most of my summer is devoted to playing tennis and alot of the winter I play tennis too. This event was important because it was the start for my love of this awesome sport. -
Camp Woodward
I went to Camp Woodward when I was 11 years old with my gymnastics team, Woodward is a gymnastics camp. Camp Woodward is in Pennsylvania and we stayed for a week. The team was staying in a cabin and that made it that much more fun! We had practice twice a day and in the evenings there were always different activities planned for us. This event was important because it was the first time I had been that far away from my family for that long. -
The Day I Quit Gymnastics
On this day I decided to stop doing gymnastics after 9 years of doing it. It took up most of my time and I knew that I wanted to do tennis more often. It was a very difficult day because I knew that by quiting I wouldn't get to see my best friends everyday anymore. This day was important because it meant I would no longer be doing this sport and I was moving on to different things. -
