Student Council 09'

Student council at Mountain View has definitely been an experience. To prepare me for student council this year I attended a camp in the summer that stuco members from all of Arizona attended. When I first got there, I will admit that I was taken back by all the EXTREMELY enthusiastic people that were just oh so spirited!! And the ANNOYING songs we had to sing all day. We were separated from our original school council and put into new councils with people we did not know & formed our own camp council. We were to come up with a school logo, chant, and we even had to sing songs the loudest in order to eat dinner first! It was horrible. But as camp went on, I became involved, Spirited, and became So close with my council. Making friends with so many amazing people that I thought I would have nothing in common with. really, and surprisingly just having a great time!

We did so many get to KNOW you activities. Some got really personal, like an activity called 'Eye to eye.' It sounds a little weird, but everyone at camp stood in a line and in silence, each person stared at each others eyes for 3 seconds. It was supposed to be as if you could see their soul, and what they were like underneath it all. I will admit I found myself breaking down into tears when I saw how unhappy some of the kids at camp were. It was for sure an eye opener. We also played a game called 'inside out.' Each student had a pillow case and they would talk about themselves & how they came across, or how other people saw them. They would then turn the pillow case inside out and tell the council how they really felt inside, and how things were at home. Listening to the stories of how sad the kids were, how lost, or how bad things were at home, made me feel so bad. I felt so blessed to have such an amazing family, and how happy I am. Don't worry, we also had fun activities and Leadership building activities. We had inspirational speakers, and one speaker even got me to break through a 3 inch wide piece of wood with nothing but the karate chop of my hand! NO JOKE. And even crazier, Some girls bent a 14 inch steel bar with the center of their throats. All they had to do was trust each other and themselves then move towards each other with all their might. It was CRAZY to watch the steel bend straight in half with no ambulance needed! But, DONT TRY THIS AT HOME. inspirational speaker definitely needed! All in all, camp was such an amazing experience and I'm so glad i had the opportunity to go.

This year in student council I've made so many new friends and had the chance of becoming more involved with the school. I'm only there for 3 periods of the day so its nice to feel like I still actually attend mountain view. I will admit that It has gotten hard for me to go as the end of the year comes, and I find myself not wanting to be so involved, and feeling a sense of 'junioritis' (sick of high school already). But I've chose to stick it through, and finish out the year! we just recently had an end of the year banquet, and I'm going to miss everyone. Especially the seniors going off to college. I've really enjoyed student council as a whole, and I'm so glad i did it.

Called to serve him.....

InPennsylvania Philadelphia! Far east, but still safe in the states. I know selfish, that I'm glad he's not too far in a scary country. But after his accident, it's nice knowing there will be good hospitals close. The exciting part is that it's SPANISH SPEAKING! I wanted him to learn Spanish so bad! Maybe because all my brother in laws speak spanish, and my brother roman too ;) It will get extremely cold, almost below 0. He said he's excited to wear big trench coats haha. The sad part is that when he gets really cold, he breaks out in a bad rash of hives all over...Big bumps that itch really bad. He'll just have to have a lot of faith that they wont be too bad in the winter! I'm so proud of him, and he is so excited to serve the lord. He was glowing last night, and had such a strong spirit about him. He reports July 15Th!! Crazy how fast time is going to fly. Bring on the Philly cheese steak sandwiches and 'Rocky' steps! He wants to watch all of the Rocky movies and Invincible to get him pumped. This is going to be such a perfect mission for him, I'm just so dang excited for him!

We were both a little emotional...at least I was.


Chris' friends and family at El Charro. He actually read the wrong section for 5 minuets and as were all waiting with anticipation, we finally realised he wasnt reading the right part!


Some of Christian's friends, Matt Dawson and Austin Patience.

Let the good times roll!

About two weeks ago was Christian's 19Th birthday and I really wanted to do something special for him! Well considering he's 19 years old and has never been on a plane I REALLY and literally wanted to go 'above and beyond' and see if there was anyway i could surprise him and take him on a plane. I checked online and lucky enough the prices to California were extremely low! I Begged my mom and dad then booked them ASAP. This was my plan: I had one of his close friends pack a backpack of his necessities and hide it in his house. His mom then picked me up so we could pick up Chris and drive to the airport. I had told Chris to get work off and that i had something planned for the day. Nothing too big, just something fun. I knocked on the door and made him immediately put on the blindfold. I didn't want him knowing his mom was driving us or he'd know something was up. I grabbed the bag and put it in the car then made christian sit patiently in the front seat with rules of, no peeking and no touching! We finally got to the airport and i ripped his blindfold off, he was so surprised and so excited. I told him we were flying to California for the day to relax on the beach! A perfect get away after his accident, where he spent 4 days in ICU. My wonderful sister Rachel picked us up and dropped us off at Laguna where food and shops were walking distance. It was a perfect hot sunny day, and it was so fun just hanging out the whole day with no worries. We both refused to put sun block on and got FRIED. No exaggeration. we came home as lobsters. Besides almost missing our flight home by getting there 20 min before it took off....everything was perfect!
Thanks to everyone that helped!












I've been dating Christian Cade Larson for 1 year today. Crazy I know! Especially since I've never dated a guy for more than a couple months. But Christian (chinch) is my best friend and I've never liked someone so much! Not once have I ever gotten sick of him, or found a reason to just be mad at him. He is so caring, and selfless. He constantly is worrying about getting me home on time, making me laugh, keeping me safe, and just being there for me. He's a hard worker with almost 40 hour weeks at Longbow golf course, He's EXREMELY goofy which I LOVE. He's been through so much and has the biggest heart. I'm so darn lucky to have him as my adorable boyfriend! My family adores Chris and he's so good with my nephews always bringing over his giant snakes to keep them entertained. Were all going to miss him! Sad, but so exciting....he gets his mission call this Thursday! I don't know what I'm going to do with out him for two years. But i know he is going to be such an amazing missionary! I'm so excited to see where he goes. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING CHINCHY & HAPPY 1 YEAR! Love ya chubs.

Watch out...HERE I COME!

I already spend enough time on the computer as it is, so why not spend even more time updating a blog about my adventurous life as a teenager in high school. So here is goes, we'll see how well I do with this. I'm hoping it can be more of an online journal for me. Alright so I'll let the secret out...I've been spending a lot of time with Robert Pattinson or many of you may know him as (Edward Cullen). We've been shooting the upcoming sequel to twilight called 'New Moon' It's been very exciting. They've casted me as the new Bella!!

Haha I wish this were true. My friend Meghan from Evit edited this picture for me as a joke and i randomly found it on my computer. I had to share it with you, I laugh every time!
