Dolphin Tooth

On friday , we went to go pick up MARIAH !!!!!!!!! from the airport. It was a lot of fun! I was hugging her so much!! i am sooooooo glad that she here. On Saterday,we went to the beach......she loved it its a big change for her because he went from freezing cold to hot beach days!! we saw some pretty cool things on the beach......like a big dead sea turtle ,a little tiny dead sea turtle.....so cute,and a DOLPHIN SKULL!! we thought it was an crocidile skull but then we saw it was a dolphin....so COOL!! i pulled a tooth out of its mouth,so now i have a dolphin tooth! haha i like it.Its pointy and has this wierd black stuff at the top. We also saw two dead puffer fish...those we see often but are still pretty cool.
later that day we went to our branch christmas party!! my mom thought there would be like 100 people there....so she made 1oo cookies or more!! turns out there were only like 30..... 35 people, but the funny thing is, every crum was eaten!!!!!!!!! people would come up and grab like 10 cookies and walk back to there seats!! SO funny.This little old man came up and crabbed like 13 cookies and then put them in his hat and sat there and ate them!! haha i love that guy! his name is Philipe (fil-eep-ay).
On Sunday we went to church and mariah thought it was cute she really likes the branch. She came into primary with me so she could listen to spanish and english......my mom was the teacher.......so you know she spoke in Spanish and English well that was are few fun days and we are about to have MORE!!

the MOST scariest time of my life!

well i really learned somthing today, you really shouldnt take ANYTHING for granit.because you never know when your life might end. because as you know, we have lots of beaches close by and lots of things happen. so we were playing at the beach and having a blast! when abram and me were body bording and the sea can be very tricky so as we didnt notice we were soosoo far from shore when he body boreds when all the sudden i get really really light headed and can no longer touch the ground of the ocean and there are huge waves and abes way up there and i am trying so hard to swim against a very strong current and its like i was swimming in place or i get pulled back more and more and im getting very weak and i keep spitting out water when i really know whats happing and that im feeling like my life is going to end right then and there.so i yelled for abe and he sees me and comes for me but he has the body bored and i think i might almost fainted because it is very vivid. and i told him i dont feel good and that i was weak. and he couldnt touch either and the current was very strong and i felt bad cause we were far and he felt responsible to keep us both safe.and huge waves would kind of helping but not much.the feeling that rushed through me was im out at see and very strong currents and im going to die thats kind of what i was thinking.i was trying to push even though i was weak. abe looked at me and told me he loved me so i said it back i was praying we would get back to shore and i can never even can tell you the fear we were feeling and finally we got to the shore and we walked over to are parents and told them everything!!!!!!! i am so greatful for all that i have and if abe wasnt there i probley would have gave up and drown. i love my family so much and im so happy to be alive !!!!!!! now i know the post sounds kind of cheesy but its the truth!
love loraloo

my week

well my week has been pretty good,and church was really good suprisingly lots of the people there spoke some english like my teacher she helps me and emma learn spanish she will tell me spanish to have me figure it out but if i need help sometimes she'll tell me in english. me and emma are in the same primary class but when i told her i was eleven she kind of like sounded like i was to old for that class but i dont get that cause there only is one class for kids i think.
well we'v been going to the beach alot, and the other day we were at the beach and suddenly it got dark and it started to rain so here we are swimming in the rain and so we are getting ready to go home and it starts POURING and at that point i had a thin cover up that was keeping me warm at the moment but in a few seconds it was soaked.but it was a fun memory on the way home we saw a really cool crab.
well yesterday i stayed home with abram and emma while my mom went to the doctor with my dad.

well thats about it love loraloo oh! i also memorized the first article of faith in spanish.

utah trip!

well me and my family went up to utah! i am sad because we had to say goodbye to Mariah.She is off to college now! I am so proud of her. Any way, I had a great time with my cousins! we did a lot of fun things! we went to a parade and I got to see the new toy story 3 .I loved it alot.Also, after a week with family we went camping and saw more of our family!!!! I learned how to drive the RANGER It is like a jeep.i also rode the four wheelers..We went on a BEAUTIFUL hike.I saw some amazing things!!!!we had lots of camp fires and I sang alot at them. OH i remembered! I milked a goat and drank its milk! I WANTED TO PUKE!!!!!!!! then over there was my cousin Amelia who loves it and drank two cups.I think goat milk tastes how it smells. well....I had a wonderful time it was hard to say goodbye.

Goodbye Mariah

I only have 2 more days left at home with my sister! She is leaving for BYU. I will miss her so much because she has been such a good sister to me. I am so proud that she made it in to BYU. I guess I am the big sister now at home. At least to Emma anyway. I don't think I can do it as good as Mariah but I will try hard. I know she will do good in college. I know she loves us still. We will have to skype her from Nicaragua! I love my sister!!!!
