My {BEST} Friends.

December and January have been wonderful months.

No School. Which means...

Plenty of days with my friends.

{Claire. Shane. Veronica. Sam.}

We have had so many fun times this month.

Here are some of our memories...

{The day Sam and Nolan got there mission calls.

Sam is going to Japan. Reports April 7.

Nolan is going to Illinois. Reports February 17.

GOOD LUCK BOYS!}

{I LOVE going to breakfast at Ruby's on the Pier.

SOOO...I dragged my friends there. :)

They loved it of course.}

{We spent a whole day at Knott's Berry Farm.}

{A day in Big Bear...actually a few hours.

We went sledding and had some fun.}

{One night we went down to the Wedge.

Sometimes....we do crazy stuff.}

{Veronica and I stayed the night at Claires house.

And had a photo shoot with all the lights off.

Let's just say it was one of the best nights for all of us.}

{One sunday night we were all lying on the floor...

AND this is what happened.

Enough said with these pictures.}

{Sam took us to Montebello to get "THE BEST" chocolate milk.

Later we find out that you can just buy it at a local grocery store.

BUT-the drive was fun and I am glad he took us there.

FUN experience.}

More memories to come in the next couple months

Who Knew...

Today I was cleaning my room and in walks Erin with some news.

Here's how it went:

Erin:"Did Wes text you too? "

Me: "No. Why?"

Erin: "He just said that there is a tornado warning in Orange County!"

Me: *Silence.My hands immediately rose to my face,&covered my mouth.*

Erin: *Laughing*

Me: "WHAT?! Why are you laughing? This is scary."

Erin: *Walks out of room*

I then told a couple people and then started to watch FOX11 news.

I wanted to stay updated.

Luckily, everything was fine here.

Just a scary moment that has just happened.

Lesson from this:

ALWAYS BE PREPARED FOR THE UNEXPECTED!!

*My emergency backpack is sitting in my closet. Ready to be taken out, rolled right along side me (yes, it is a rolling backpack), and used at any given time.*

Rain, Rain!

Day number 1 of the rain.

I like the rain when I am at home.

Not when I am at school, please.

I love the sound of the rain when it hits the ground.

{Cool picture I found.}

{Photoshoot with Dana.

One of my favorites}

Sometimes I like to run around and dance in the rain.

{Playing in the rain with friends.

The start to a new friendship.}

Its days like these that I like to:

Sit at home.

Watch movies.

Stay in my pajamas.

Wrap up in a blanket.

And Drink some hot cocoa.

My Life of Piano

Today while teaching I started to think of my life of piano so far.

Here is why I am happy my mom encouraged me to take piano.

1. I can share my talents with others

{Even though I get shy and try to get out of it

sometimes when put on the spot, I still love it.}

{This is a really old picture of Erin Heidi and I on a family vacation}

2. I can simply just have fun

{Sometimes I like to sit down and play whatever comes

to me or I will open up to random songs.}

{Random picture I found on google}

3. I have a job

{I am able to teach 16 wonderful students the same talent.}

{This picture is from my Spring Recital '08}
