FRIDAY:

here are some highlights from our girls night.

all the girls had taco's,

p.s. my mom makes thee best tacos. then after we put avacado+olive oil+egg yolk in our hair, but unfortunately the avacado ran out and some of us had to use bananas, {not a good idea} after we made a face paste {well at least tried} and we crushed some apples, poured some milk in with it and boiled it, {what were we thinking?} we all felt very gross so we decided to go wash up! for the girls that put avacado in there hair it came out pretty easy, but for the girls with the banana in there hair, after we showered it still didn't come out. we watched a funny movie and all fell asleep.

thanks all you girls for making it a fun night!:)

wishing on a fallen eyelash
a bowl of ice cream
dancing for no reason at all
getting letters in the mail from old friends
people watching at an airport
thunderstorms
organizing my closet
the feeling of how clean your teeth are after you have brushed & flossed them
having freshly painted nails
laughing until you cry
inside jokes that never die
light coming through the slates of my blinds
freshly clean bedsheets
eating burnt marshmellows
smelling fresh when i get out of the shower
folder over potato chips
a new magazine in the mail
christmas lights
pretending to have a british accent
reading my old journals {they are pretty funny}
waking up in the summer and hearing birds chirping
open windows
cupcake shops
cotton candy dizzolving on my tounge
waking up in the morning, looking out the window & seeing snow on the ground

+Life Changing+

2010-11-02T19:29:00.000-07:00

So my mom sent me an email today that just made me so sad, but really made me better. I hope it will do the same for you to!

One day, when I was a freshman in high school,
I saw a kid from my class was walking home from school.

His name was Kyle.

It looked like he was carrying all of his books.

I thought to myself, 'Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday?
He must really be a nerd.'

I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friends tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my shoulders and went on.

As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running toward him.
They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt.
His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him...

He looked up and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes
My heart went out to him. So, I jogged over to him as he crawled around looking for his glasses, and I saw a tear in his eye..

As I handed him his glasses, I said, 'Those guys are jerks.'

They really should get lives.
' He looked at me and said, 'Hey thanks!'
There was a big smile on his face.
It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude.

I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived.
As it turned out, he lived near me, so I asked him why I had never seen him before..

He said he had gone to private school before now.
I would have never hung out with a private school kid before.

We talked all the way home, and I carried some of his books.
He turned out to be a pretty cool kid.
I asked him if he wanted to play a little football
with my friends

He said yes.

We hung out all weekend and the more I got to know Kyle, the more I liked him, and my friends thought the same of him.
Monday morning came, and there was Kyle with the huge stack of books again.

I stopped him and said, 'Boy, you are gonna really build some serious muscles with this pile of books everyday!
' He just laughed and handed me half the books.

Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends..

When we were seniors we began to think about college.

Kyle decided onGeorgetown and I was going to Duke.
I knew that we would always be friends, that the miles would never
be a problem.
He was going to be a doctor and I was going for business on a football scholarship..

Kyle was valedictorian of our class.
I teased him all the time about being a nerd.
He had to prepare a speech for graduation.
I was so glad it wasn't me having to get up there and speak
Graduation day, I saw Kyle.
He looked great.
He was one of those guys that really found himself during high school.
He filled out and actually looked good in glasses..
He had more dates than I had and all the girls loved him.

Boy, sometimes I was jealous!
Today was one of those days.
I could see that he was nervous about his speech.
So, I smacked him on the back and said, 'Hey, big guy, you'll be great!'
He looked at me with one of those looks (the really grateful one) and smiled....
' Thanks,' he said.
As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began
'Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years.
Your parents, your teachers, your siblings, maybe a coach...but mostly your friends....
I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them.

I am going to tell you a story.'
I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the
first day we met.
He had planned to kill himself over the weekend.
He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn't have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home.
He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile.
'Thankfully, I was saved.

My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable..'

I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment.

I saw his Mom and dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile.

Not until that moment did I realize it's depth.

Never underestimate the power of your actions..
With one small gesture you can change a person's life.
For better or for worse.
God puts us all in each others lives to impact one another in some way.
Look for God in others.

Were in a pioneer hand cart!

We all went to go site see the Del Coronado. Its haunted! The elevator there looked like it could be in a horror movie, they even had a little old man open the elevator for you and push the button for you, it creeped us out!

There is a ghost at Del Coronado, her name is Kate Morgan! And this was her room! 3327. My mom, paige&me all went up to the room. It was so creepy because no one was there and the hotel was so old the stairs were crooked.
