Hi guys! Sorry its been so long since I last posted, but it has been crazy. I have turned 14! My dad and I had a great birthday shared with friends, family, and of course The Old Spaghetti Factory. I will do another post on that later. Other exciting news is I moved up to Mia Maids, had an AMAZING birthday party, and got a solo in my showstoppers play! There is also the fact that Easter was last week and I am so hyper and weird because of all the sugar (although I am sure some would argue its not just the sugar. Hmmmmm. We might have to check into that.) I am also trying out for Rhapsody in Blue tomorrow and I am super nervous. Anyway, I'll try to post more frequently and I will still post about our great Orlando trip and my birthday. Oh, and Easter. We can't forget Easter. Well, bye all!

The Many Faces of Ethan
My little brother Ethan is so funny. Not a day goes by when I am not laughing at the hilarious things he does. This is a video of him showing his many faces. I took the video, and it was hard for me to keep from laughing (and I couldn't do it a few times!). Anyways, this is my first time posting a video so we will see how it goes. Just enjoy the many faces of Ethan.

Spring Break
Hello guys! Sorry it's been a while, but I've been having a great spring break, and then crashing and trying to stay awake in school. But more on the positive. I had a great spring break. It was full of fun and excitement. There was a lot of family and friends, and I had such a great time.
On Friday, I went on a trip to St. George. APRIL FOOLS!!! No, that was my neighbors, lucky ducks. Instead I went to my friend Marissa's house. We jumped on the tramp and played Quelf. For those of you who have not played this game, I recommend it. It is a combination of Curses and Cranium, but it's a whole new thing too. I had such a great time and could not stop laughing. Then my dad was home (for once) and we went to dinner. How fun! I had a great April Fools day/first day of spring break.
Saturday and Sunday was General Conference. It was good to hear the different talks and get all the different messages. Our TV downstairs had been broken and guess who fixed it? ME!!! And just in time for conference!
Monday we went to the zoo with some of our friends. I had not been to the zoo in a couple of years, and it was fun to come back. There were tons of fun signs that said things like the "Beastro" and the "Zooutique." It was really funny! My personal favorite was a sign that said, "It's time to get edzoocated." Wow. Anyways, it was a fun day, and we got to see the new baby elephant. It's a girl for all of you who wanted to know.
Tuesday was a lazy day where we sat around. Great huh? I know, we are so creative. It was nice just to relax and have fun with family.
Wednesday was really boring for me. I babysat ALL DAY!!! In the morning I babysat my brothers and then in the afternoon I babysat some neighbors. It was really long!
Thursday, well, I can't remember what I did Thursday. Probably nothing. Yeah, because that's just how cool I am. You know that you are jealous!
Friday was really great. I went to the mall with Lauren and her friend. I got some cute Aero tops! Then as soon as we got home, I played around. An hour later, my mom comes up to tell me that we are going to Park City and we need to leave in 10 minutes. I was so excited because with this huge trial, we don't get to see my dad a lot. We decided to start of by a dinner at Chuck-A-Rama. A lot of my great-grandma's sister's family was there, but I didn't know them. I just sat in a corner and ate my roll. Then we headed down to Park City. We went to a hotel, and then we went swimming! The pool was really warm and it felt really nice. They also had a hot tub and a steam room. Then we headed back up to the hotel room and went to bed.
On Saturday, we woke up and went to breakfast at the hotel restaurant and then we went back swimming. After some swimming as a family, we hit the outlets and bought some clothes, shoes, and Mrs. Field's Cookies. Then we headed home.
Sunday we just rested and caught up on sleep. We went to church and then went to my grandma's for dinner. That is a family tradition of ours and I love it. It was so nice, and we had some really good roast and mashed potatoes. Then we headed home.
All and all, it was a great spring break! It was so much fun, and now all I have to wait for is summer, to spend more time with family, friends, and just have a great time. See you next year spring break!
P.S. I plan to post on my amazing Orlando trip soon. Just an FYI.

Birthday Thoughts
THERE IS ONLY THIRTEEN MORE DAYS UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!
And speaking of birthdays, last years was great. We went to the Old Spagetti Factory (a family favorite) and celebrated. For those of you who don't know, my dad and I share a birthday. That is such a great experience! I love sharing a birthday with him! Anyways, here are some pictures from last year!
This is me with my new Hunger Games Book!(Or it was new.) I loved the series, and this was a great present! Thank you Lauren for getting me this book!
Here is my dad. Again, the perfect present is from Lauren. How cool is she? Major cool. I want cookies!
Over on the other side of the table, my Aunt Kaylee (two Kaylees at my birthday! To cool!) and my brothers were having a contest to see who could keep a spoon on their nose the longest!
Here's the birthday girl and boy enjoying a great birthday. How lucky are they? Very lucky.
And here is the whole gang PLUS the waitress. Oh yeah, we know how to throw a party!

My Family
I have the best family in the world. They are fun, crazy, and awesome! I love my family more than anything in the world. So that you can get to know my amazing family, I decided to tell you a bit about them. Earlier this week, my sister told me a quote that explains my family. I love this quote! It says: "In a family, there are lots of notes. Some are high, and some are low, but it is always a beautiful song." That quote is amazing. I find myself looking back at it when I am having a hard time. It had really changed my perspective!
Now I will tell you about my family. My dad, Ryan, is amazing. He works at Kirton and McConkie law office. He is a funny guy (although my mom would disagree) and a hard worker. He has taught me a lot of what I know when it comes to hard work and never giving up. He loves to quote movies and play Mario Kart with us kids! What a great dad! Oh yeah! He's a good looking guy!
Next is my mom, Jen. My mom is a stay at home mom who take care of us kids! She's pretty lucky to have such an amazing, cool, and modest daughter to take care of! She has many talents, including quoting movies at exactly the right time, giving just the right amount of discipline, and never loosing reasons to love us. She has taught me how to love everyone I meet. She is truly an amazing person. She is also very pretty. We went to the zoo yesterday and about a million people told her she looked very nice! Jealousy! Anyway, she is a great example. I love my mom!
My sister Lauren is also a great example to me. She is nice, popular, a great cook, stylish, and a perfectionist. She is always concerned if she look okay, and she always looks BEAUTIFUL! She has lots of friends and is always seeing who needs help and then helps them. She is good at setting goals. Lauren is trying to finish her Personal Progress at amazing speed, considering she just got it. We may fight sometimes, but Lauren means the world to me and I wouldn't trade that for anything. Here's my gorgeous sister.
Next would be Braiden. Braiden is a spirited, fun soul. He enjoys being random and playing with his friends. He likes to be the comedian, and we often find ourselves laughing at his jokes. He is the one in our family who will make us laugh. Braiden likes to play the wii and play with legos. He likes treats and my life wouldn't be complete without my brother Braiden. Here he is in a suit. Isn't he adorable? Alright, I'll stop, but you know it's true.
Last, but not least, is my brother Ethan. Ethan is a funny kid! He enjoys playing the wii and eating treats. He loves his brother. They are the best of pals. Ethan is liking kindergarton and is so excited to start reading. Sometimes we might get frusterated with him, but he is all of our "baby." He is very popular with his friends and family. Ethan is a one-of-a-kind boy.
So there is my family. We are all very crazy and loveable. I would never be able to survive without my family and I love them so much. They help me a lot in my life. My family really makes a beautiful song.

Introduction
Yea!!!! I am a blogger!!! You don't know how good it feels to say that! I have wanted to say that for so long and now I finally can! Ahhhh! Such a great feeling! If you are reading this, you are wanting to see into my own little korner of the world. Get it? Korner? With a "K?" You know because... Oh forget it.
This is a new thing for me. I might not post everyday. Actually, I will probably not post that often. I am going to try new things and have fun with this blog, and hopefully you will too. I already have some posts in mind, but it might take me a while to post them. Just be patient with me, and you'll get to experience a bit of my korner.
