Taking Cam to the MTC was super hard to do, I didnt show it but I didnt want her to go. I know it is what she wanted to I tried hard to be strong and not show how bad it upset me. I def. Miss her but I love that she is serving our Heavenly Father.
Some pics from our MTC Trip...
Mom, Cam, Rae and I Dropping off her Luggage while Dad was parking the Truck.. Hers is the Black one with Polka Dots in the corner of the pic...
Us three girls... after Cam checked in and got her tag and address....
After our departure with Cam, we went straight home.. I couldnt even sleep so i drove alot of the time.. The only time I didnt drive was from Kanab to Flagstaff. I didnt sleep a wink, but enjoyed the time i got to spend with my family..

Trip to Utah..
We took Cam up to the MTC for her mission. But before we could take her we had to visit our friends from Springville and Benson.
We Stayed at the Pearsons, some friends that used to live here in Queen Creek with us.
We stayed with them for one night and then went up to Benson for 2 nights and were there for Saturday and Sunday, we left Monday but not without me going to see my friends at Sky View High School and eatin lunch with them and it snowing While we were there..
After we left Benson we went back to Springville to spend the rest of our weekend with the Peasons.. Camylle left for school and I woke up to get ready for the day. When Camylle got home we were wearing the same thing. No joke it was cool!
we had the same Hair, same Shirt, same Jeans, and even the same brand of Shoes.

Update!
I know its been awhile since my last post so here are some of the Highlights I've had since then..
Since i missed our school dance I Went to Sadie Hawkins dance at Heritage Academy with my friend Brighten Peters and a group of friends.
The theme was "Forbidden City". but some of the guys wanted to go western... Well ya'll know me, I was all too happy to oblige and go western too.. I didnt mind bein the odd girl out. :D
After the dance was over we went to the "Waffle House" for breakfast, it bein about 1 A.M. on Saturday morning.. It was crazy,and we all laughed alot. Everyone was talking about how Chelsea, the beautiful yound woman wearing the Tiara, and I looked alot alike and also acted alike. It was crazy, but we decided we were seperated at birth. We've also gained the nicknames of Thing 1
Some other happenings are...
My best friend.... ok sister Jordan AKA Jordy got together at my house on Monday the 2nd of March.. things got a little bit crazy... thats to say the least.. here are some of the happenings.. mostly taken in my room while we laughed until we cried!!!!!
I got some more Senior Pictures taken in January... I know everyone knows i hate taking pictures, but i love them all the same too.. My amazing Stake YW Pres. Sis. Skinner was amazing and did them for free, I love them so much!! I took some with Rin, another young woman in my ward, who is also graduating this year.. I though ya'll might like a look see at what happened at this "SHOOT oUT"
This i believe is one of my most favorites... There were so many, it was hard to decide...
I had so much fun with Rin, it was hard to get along with her for so long.. but now we just 'click' is that even a good way to describe it???
My senior pics wouldnt have been complete if i hadnt had some done in a button down. I love my country roots, they go deep. That is what i am, no matter how i dress, act, look or come off.. I love the fresh air, or rather the smell of horses and cows mixed with the smell of everything mixed in; dirt, rain, flowers, sunshine. It is always my favorite when we go back to places like, Cliff/Gila, Taylor/Snowflake, Vernon, Benson, all the places we've lived put off a bucolic feeling. Its awesome. :D
Sis. Skinner calls this one my "pondering the world" look. And in some ways she's right. I do wonder about alot of things, i always have questions and sometimes i never get any answers. I ponder about my life and what it's going to be. This picture makes me think alot of things... I guess its true what they say..........
"A picture is truly worth a thousand words, but i guess you could say it stirs more questions.."
On the 23 and 24th of January I went to Peoria FFA Mini Leadership Camp. The theme was "Finding Your Roots". Its always been one of my highlights, other then FFA National Convention. There is always amazing speakers, a GREAT Dance and tons of new people to meet and old friends to greet.. This pic was taken in the car on the way..
on the 3rd of January I had to work.. Whoopee.. I know working at a Feed Store sounds amazing, and it is usually... but sometimes it can be a definate drag. not to say that the customer or sometimes even the guys don't keep it interesting enough. I just usually do this..............
On the Day after Christmas, Rae, Cam and I had to run some errands.. That meant going to "Hobby Lobby" one of the family 'favorites'..
While Cam was off hunting for something Mom wanted or she was looking for Rae and I were looking around to get into some trouble and have fun... we ended up like this...
Any way... just thought I'd give you all something to read about my life.. I'll be adding Highlights from Last October(2008) and back up throught to this year
(2009)... :D
