Today

2010-05-29T19:29:00.000-07:00

I am boared right now so I decited to do a blog about today!

When I woke up I mowed the lawn and then helped my mom with the garden!!
We go a whole bunch of things; we got tomatos, cutecumbers, stawberries, and red, green, orange, and yellow peppers. We also got some rasberries from our neighboor, I am really excited about that. After that I took a 2 hour nap on my tramp. I needed one really bad. Then I came inside and watched part of a christmas story. Kind of random but I just felt like watching it.

Well that is about it.

Yellowstone

2010-05-28T11:23:00.000-07:00

Sorry I haven't been posting for a while, I have just been so busy lately and haven't really remembered. So I just decided to do a post on the last couple of weeks of school.

Well near the beginning of school, we were given the opportunity to pay about $200 to go to Yellowstone for a couple of days with the school. Both of my brothers went on the trip when they were in 8th grade and I decided that I really wanted to go. So during the year we had to make payments so that we could go. If you missed a payment then you couldn't go. So when the day finally came, my friends and I were really excited to go and have a good time. We got to ride in the commercial buses so it wasn't so bad. When we got there we put our stuff in the hotel and went down so we could go to the grizzly discovery center. The people there help bears and wolfs that can't go back into the wild.

I had a good time and after that we went and saw a 3d movie. It was really cool. Then we had free time to go and buy some dinner.

The next day we went to a really cool waterfall in Yellowstone.

It was a nice 8 mile hike and really enjoyable.

Then we went to this cool musime it talked all about Yellowstone.

Then the next day we went and saw old Faithful erupt. That was cool.

After that we headed home.

The wonderful world of duct tape

The past few weeks i have been working on some duct tape items. I figured out by myself how to make duct tape hats. Here is a picture of them. I made one for Abbie and they look cool. Mine is the one on the right and Abbie's is on the left.

The wonderful world of duct tape!

Job shadow day

2009-02-16T13:17:00.000-08:00

I haven't done a post for a long time but I think this one will be really good.

On Friday the 13th it was a job shadow day for my school. I went to the vet office and they let me do a couple of things. First they gave me a tour of the place and I got to see all the animals that were in the back and what was wrong with them or if they just needed help or was just found on the street. This is a picture of a dog that was found on the side of the street.

I felt bad for this dog because it was very sad and whining.

This dog was having a needle put into his leg because it was being prepared for getting neutered.

In this photo they were putting a air tube down it's throat.

This is a picture of all the equipment in the operating room , they showed me what they all do and cool stuff like that.

I didn't take any pictures of the operation because wall, you know why.

This dog was pregnant and you can see the three babies in her stomach.

This dog ate staples. that would really hurt.

This dog jumped in front of a shot gun and got shot.

Overall I had a great day and it was fun to do.

funny pics!

2008-11-26T07:25:00.000-08:00

I was going threw some pictures and found some funny pictures of some of my aunt's, uncles,cousins, and grandparents.

Halloween!

2008-10-29T13:19:00.000-07:00

Sorry I haven't made a new post in a while. I haven't had time to.

Today I didn't have school because it is a teacher work day. It is nice to have a day off from getting up at 6:15 in the morning. I went to the store and got some spider webs. I put them all over our decorations.

This is from a different angle.

Last year I made a cardboard grave, this is what it looks like.

I can't wait till Halloween!

Duct Tape Wallets

2008-10-03T16:15:00.000-07:00

In the past few days I've had an interest in making duct tape wallets. They are really easy to make and are sweet to use. I have made a couple of them and you can make them what ever color you want.

Here is a picture of some I have made.

There is a pocket for money and one for cards and stuff like that.

THEY ARE SWEET!

2008-10-03T16:13:00.000-07:00

Today I had to go and get my Hep. A shot. It hurt a little becaus the lady that was doing it threw it into my arm. It realy sucks when you have to get SHOTS!

Running

2008-09-21T17:36:00.000-07:00

The other day all of my extended family on my mom's side came over. A lot of us ran the Top Of Utah five k. It was fun to have a lot of family run it with you at the same time. My time was 29:11. I guess that is a good time. I am really sore today because usually the second day hurts the worst.

Thanks for everyone that came over!!!!!!

Hang Gliding with Dad!

2008-08-26T21:38:00.000-07:00

My dad took me Hang Gliding probably for my last time until he gets his tandem glider. We went up to short divide knowing that it was going to be a nice day to fly. So when we got to the top we set up and did our flight checks and started to bring the glider down to launch. The take off was sweet! We took about two steps and we were off the ground. So about 15-20 minutes later Cody took off and joined us. As usual he was up over 8,000 ft before we were. We were working and trying to catch some thermals. About 1 hour into trying to get up I admitted to my dad that I was getting a little bit of motion sickness. So my dad asked me if I wanted to land and I said I don't really care, so we decided to stay up but we were just going NE back to SW a couple of times until we got lift! We had just shot up about 500-700 ft in the air by a thermal and then we just kept working it until we got up and joined Cody.

Here is a little clip of stuff that my dad put together.

When we got done and broken down we were talking and Cody said that I ''cowboyed up'' which in cowboy language means I didn't give up - even when I wanted to, and because of that we were successful! My dad said that I earned my wings that flight.

On our way up we saw a cougar run right across the road. That is the first cougar I have ever seen in the wild.

Total flight time 2 hours 41 min.

I have 6 flights and 8.5 hours total!

The day before school

2008-08-21T15:33:00.000-07:00

I wanted to do something fun before the summer ended with school so me and my brother and my two other friends went and saw The Chroniclas of Narnia Prince Caspian. I think I liked them both about the same.

2008-08-08T10:39:00.000-07:00

When I went to my grandpas house he found some golf balls in his workshop. He let me and my cousin have all of them. Hear is a picture of half of them, Justin has the rest. We each got 73.

That is pretty cool because I golf and now I am set for a while!

Fun with my extended family!!!!!!!!!!!!

2008-08-07T19:42:00.000-07:00

I went over to my g-ma and g-pa's house last Tuesday and we had some fun doing projects at their house and watching movies. The next day my g-pa and I went over to my cousins house and we played some base ball over at a nearby their house. After that we went over to McDonald's and got some ice cream because we were so sweaty. We went over to my aunts house and we drove down to the movie theater and watched a move. Then we went back to my g-ma's house and me and my cousin Justin slepped over and then we went back down to my aunt Amie's house and we went to the water park. That was really fun! They have a playground in the pool and we had fun on that.

Thank you grandma and grandpa for letting me stay over!!!!
Thank you Aunt Amie for letting me have fun with you guise!!!!

shopping headache

2008-08-02T11:40:00.000-07:00

My mom and I went to K-mart to go find Josh and Tanner and herself some running shorts for band camp. She said ''we are only going to this one store and then we will go home. SOOOOOOOOO we looked and looked and looked and didn't find any thing but my mom tried on several pairs of shorts and shirts but she didn't like them. Sooooo we went to Old Navy. We spent about 45 minutes there looking at the clearance rack and at T-shirts. My mom got me two T-shirts and found Josh and Tanner a pair of running shorts. After that we went to JC Pennies in the mall and I got board there and went to Fun Unlimited. My mom didn't find any clothes there so then we went to Dillard's in the mall and found me and Tanner a pair of shorts for school and Josh a nice pair of shorts to. But my mom still can't find any running shorts so we went to Shopko and she said that this would be our last stop. So right as my mom walked in she found a two pairs of running shorts for herself. Of course she had to go try them on. So my mom and I have found running shorts for Josh, Tanner, and my Mom. But she said while we were in an intersection ''we need to stop by Wal-mart and get some stuff for Dad's birthday. So we went to Wal-mart and got angel food cake, fresh strawberries, and cool whip. Then when we went to the checking stand my mom needed cash back on her debit card but the ladies card scanner wasn't accepting debit cards so after we had stood in line for 10 minutes we had to move to a different line and wait 10 more minutes. When we got to the other line the ladies debit card scanner wasn't working ether but she did it on her computer. When we got home my Mom made me a sandwich.

Total shopping time 3 1/2 hours

Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!

2008-08-01T08:21:00.000-07:00

I was serching youtube and I found a videoof Jake Brown crashing on his skateboard after he shot up 25 feet in the air.

I would love to fly threw the air on that big air ramp. I think it would be awesome just to be up in the air and doing tricks but it would kill to biff.
