Peach Days 2011

As you all know I am a HUGE fan of Peach Days!
Family comes to town and we always have a great time!
Now I'm more of a picture person, so here's our Peach Days weekend!

First of all, I was in the parade so my sisters were in charge of taking pictures with my camera..this is what happens when you give them my camera..












Luckily they did get a few of the parade...



My cute cousins
My amazing cousin Stephanie came from
Logan with her twins




WOOOOOO GO PEAK!!!

They tried to get him to smile...

...with no success

And there's me drivin Grandpa Andy's STANG!
Then I had to work with the Peak doing a big obstacle course with kids I hope yours came!
When I was done with the Peak I went to my mom's for lunch then we came back to the fair with Tish and her kids Larry and Laura!

Larry
Laura
Larry's in the front drivin

He sure loved the jeep rides


By this time we were pretty worn out so we
took a break on the curb.
Oh but that was just the beginning!
We were lucky enough to get our nephew for a few hours!
His mom got him a wrist band so he could go on as many rides as he wanted so that is just what we did!




He found a button...
And this was his face when he found out it
made noise haha
Startin to rain!
Luckily we live close so we went inside
to eat and get out of the rain but it
wasn't long before we were back out there!
Peach Days from my house
This is the one he was looking
forward to the most





The sun started to set

He got the biggest grin on his face when this
one started going higher

I just love how Michael is with him
it ALMOST makes me want kids
real soon! All in good time though


Later that night I went to the hypnotist show with my sisters and cousin Tish. It was so fun! He had them doing some really funny things and it was very entertaining!

I can't wait till next year!

9/11

It is so hard for me to believe that it has been ten whole years since that tragic day. 

That morning I was headed to class in the 7th grade and I was leaving the commons area when my friend Alex came up to me and asked if I had heard about the planes that had hit the world trade centers. I had no idea what she was talking about and my first thought was, "Wow what a terrible accident." Thinking that a plane accidentally flown too low, or something went wrong with the plane and the pilot lost control. I didn't realize the immensity of it all thinking that a plane full of people were suffering. Little did I know that it was a plane or two plus a building or two. When I got to my science class, the teacher had the news on and I remember the second plance hitting and watching the events that followed. I believe it was the teacher that finally cleared it up for me that it was an attack and these two buildings weren't all there was. I don't remember much else from that day or how I felt. Mostly confused. But now that I understand it all, this day is a sad one and also makes me feel a little fired up about it all.

I am so grateful for the men and women that stepped up that day and every day sense to fight and sacrifice for us.
On this day I keep the families of those lost and suffered in my thoughts.

Years from now my kids and grandkids will ask where I was when the world stopped turning. Where were you when the world stopped turning?

Selena Gomez in concert!

For my birthday this year my parents got me 2 tickets for Selena Gomez (mostly because Katelyn really wanted to go and they didn't want to take her)
Anyways, it was a lot of fun and I'm so glad I could spend that time with Katelyn!
