Fall Break Fun

A week ago we were able to have a 5 day weekend and it was great.  Wednesday we had an all day practice for hi-steppers working with one of our choreographers Ciara tweaking a few things in our kick routine that didn't work and made our dance better!!! After practice as a team we went over to my Sisters house/coach for lunch her and my mom had made soup and breadsticks and the hit of the party carlies delicious better then sex pumpkin cake.  That night we performed our hip-hop that we learned at basic dance training fireball for the last home football game that was a success even though we froze.  Thurday my mom took me shopping all day and got me some fun new fall/winter clothes, shoes, and accesories.  That night as a family we met up in logan at the famous blue bird restaurant.  This is a family favorite we never have to worry about someone not liking it.  Friday I was able to spend the morning with my grandma coloring her hair for her (this was my first time ever coloring someones hair) She was brave and trusted me and it turned out great.  I wish I could have got pictures those moments that you always say wish I could have got a before and after picture but I guess that's what you get for forgetting to put your memory card in your camera.  After that my grandma treated me to a fun lunch date to siagon towers a favorite.  Saturday my grandma asked me to go to logan with her to buy some hair products since I can get the professional products.  So we went and stocked her and valyn up on all their product then ran a few other arens and stopped for lunch at paradise bakery.  Once we got home we headed down to meet the rest of the family down at the farm for a clean up day and trying to find the water leak we had down there.  Sunday we ended the break with a good primary program that dixon participated in and family dinner at grandmas.  I think this years fall break was a success even though we didn't go anywhere extreme like some do we always can find a way to have fun even spending a day at the farm:)

Boys of fall coming to an end

Dixons football team played their last game of the season and lost a heartbreaker.  They are a great football team and play so hard but when you play a tough team and get no good calls its hard to win it even if you play your heart out.  It could have been a whole different ball game on a different field with different referees.  I could have went out there and probably done a better job then all 4 of them.  It also is tough when the referees are suppose to be neutral from a different area but at halftime they are sitting in the other teams crowd talking to parents like they are best friends.  Way to go bears way to be tough and make it to the second round of playoffs this year!!

Fall General Confrence 2012

We were able to have another great General Conference.  What a weekend of suprises.  As me and my family sat watching the first session we were excited about the new annoucements of the temples and thought that would be the only new suprisess... But come to find out there was another great one.  Boys of 18 years old and Girls of 19 can now go on missions.  This was a big shocker for all of us.  I bet this will be a huge change in the world and the number of missionaries will go up! I also found one of my new favorite quotes I'm a mormon I live I know I Love It!!!! We also had the opportunity of attending the final session of conference with the smart family then having dinner with them after.  All in all it was a great weekend filled with the spirit.

Bucket List

I have always wanted to participate in a flashmob (if not aware of what a flashmob is one person starts dancing and people think there crazy and people gradually add on and a whole bunch of random people by the end are doing the same dance) and I can officially say I have each year the friday of homecoming we have an assembly and they have the 20 year alumini class do it and this year they decided to do a flashmob.  They stated it and us and the cheerleaders joined in on it can officially scratch this off my bucket list...
 
This is the dance we did
