So Much More!

On a peaceful, hot summer day my husband and daughters fishing adventure it would have seemed to be just a regular fishing trip. However, during this adventure they experienced much more than just waiting patiently and receiving few catches like most mediocre fishing trips. When Bryan and Kylee left I laid down the basic rules, wear sunscreen, drink plenty of water, don't get too hot, and be home in time for supper. I started to worry when they weren't home at supper time. Bryan, my husband would have zero service on his phone where they were causing zero communication between the two of us. I kept thinking of tragic scenarios of something horrible happening to the two people I love the most. My imagination was starting to go wild, I had to remind myself all they were planning on was fishing, so nothing too terribly bad could have happened. In the middle of grabbing my keys and jumping in the truck to go look for them, they came walking in the door. They were giggling and my husband was carrying a bucket of ten to fifteen fish. I still don't know the entire story of what happened. Kylee said "Daddy told me it was time to go but I wanted to try one more time and we started catching them like crazyyyyy mom!!" We ended up eating very little that night but used that time up to clean fish. I'm so glad they went on that fishing trip that day because something happened that day and changed their relationship. Bryan and Kylee have been much, much closer since that simple fishing trip. Funny how something so simple and small can change something so much.

Sight-I like to look at the sunset and the sunrise. I love how vibrant the colors are! One time I was asked one time which I liked more the sunset or sunrise and I couldn't pick. Last year I spent the night at Natalie's house with her and Macy. We stayed up the entire night and when it was starting to get light outside Natalie and I climbed to the roof and watched the sunrise.
Touch-I recently got a blanket for Christmas from my grandma and it is the softest thing I have ever felt in my whole fifteen years of life.
Sound-I like the sound of and orchestra. When I listen to an orchestra I like to close my eyes and just completely relax and feel the beats and sounds in my veins. I probably don't seem like the type of person to enjoy this genre of music and I don't listen to it much but I do enjoy listening to an orchestra.
Taste-Dr Pepper and chocolate are the best things in the world. Dr Pepper and chocolate make me feel very excited and serene!
Smell-I love the smell of coffee. No one in my house drinks coffee but when I'm at work I have to pour coffee and fill filters with coffee and sometimes I just sit there and waft the smell towards my face. The smell of coffee makes me feel very warm and distant from the world, funny how something as simple as coffee can make you feel that way.

Forgive & Forget!

The statement is saying that if you do not forgive then you will suffer not the other person. The other person has swallowed their pride to apologize and you should return the favor and forgive. Apologizing and forgiving make you a better person than someone who doesn't. I do agree with this statement.

Fly On A Wall

I would like to be a fly on the wall in the kitchen so I could hear what my parents say about me. My bedroom isn't very far from the kitchen but I still can't hear everything they say. When my parents are in the kitchen every now and then I can hear my name but that's not good enough for me. I want to know what they say about me.

Naughty or Nice?

Dear Santa,

             I haven't been as nice as I should have been. I haven't been horrible but I haven't been nice either. However I have been good enough to get presents. Such as the iPhone4. I would also like to have another North Face jacket and maybe some Toms!

Secret Recipes!

Let's get cooking Italian! My favorite TV show is "Giada At Home!" Giada is an Italian woman who cooks amazing food! My mother and I love to watch this show, when we have time. We usually record several Food Network shows and catch up on our favorite on Sundays or late Friday and Saturday nights. We have different favorite of who just cooks at home and different cooking competitions. My mothers favorite is "Barefoot Contessa" she usually cooks sweets more than regular food. Our favorite competition to watch is "The Next Iron Chef!" We love that show. My mom has time to watch it on the nights that it comes on but I am usually at work. She records them for me and for her to go back and watch over again. She enjoys rubbing it in my face that she knows who is gone from the competition and who is still cooking!

My Eye!!

My most painful moment would be when we were on vacation and while we were tubing on the lake I got popped in the eye with my brothers foot. We were tubing and I told my mom to go super fast and to go over as many waves as possible because that always makes it interesting and exciting. We were going faster than ever and hit this gigantic wave that threw us in the air higher than I've ever been while tubing. When we landed I flipped over and all that was on the tube was my arms and my hands holding the handles. Next thing I knew I was being knocked off of the tube and when I looked up my brother Tate was flying towards me. He could see that we was coming to me and I could see his eyes and knew that look. I felt like someone on Looney Toons. When the heel of Tates foot hit my eye I thought my eye had fallen out. I could feel it with my hand but it hurt so bad I thought I would never see again. I've never had a bloody nose, until that day, and I have never had a broken bone. So that was the first serious pain I've ever experienced. I ended the day with a bloody nose and a seriously bad headache.
