the sky is the limit

"Be strong and of good courage, be not afraid neither be thou dismayed, for the lord thy god is with thee withersoever thou goest" Joshua 1:9
I would like everyone to know that you are loved. I want you to stay strong and hold tight to the rod forever! Be patient. Love everyone. Do not judge. For who are we to judge when we, ourselves, aren't perfect? I love you all and so does our god in heaven. He has reasons for everything at every time in our lives. When we reach our bridge of trial that we need to get over i want you to stay strong. God will always be right next to you, guiding you through. He knows what you are going through and understands your heart and mind. He knows what you are able to handle and wants you to stay close. Be strong and of good courage!

Thanks Kimie for posting this.

Best Day!!!!

Ok so a few fridays ago the drama club at my school went to uvu to the UTA which was sooo much fun. Funner then when I went in 7th grade. Me, Maddy, Kassadi, and Mackenzie hanged out the whole time together. We were going to go to a makeup class but it got cancelled so we just walked around for an hour deciding what we would do the rest of the day. So after an hour we went to this junk music class where we learned how to make music with our bodies like clapping and snapping and making a beat. It was really cool! We had to switch our instruments with our partner so the teacher was like ''switch your instrements'' In a reallyyy whinny annoying voice. It was funny! Then we had lunch and they did like a concert while it was going on. Durring lunch like all the 9th graders and some 8th graders were by the drinking fountian and I spit my candy out in it and this guy just let the water run and we were just like staring at it and this guy was like ''ok, why are we doing this'' and the other one said ''because we hate it and want it to die''. Sounds stupid but It was funny at the time! Then we went to a prop food class and that was the best! We just made food our of paper, and other materials. Me and maddy made a hamburger and kass made a cupcake and mackenzie made an ice cream cone. We were playing music before it started and that was fun because it had speakers so no head phones. There was like a college kid helping the lady and he was sooo funny! He was like ''you spanish forkers think your bettter!'' Hahaha! The girls in back of us kept saying ''oh. my. gosh. That is so legit! No-This is legit. Remember that one time? That was sooo legit! Legit! Legit! Legit!'' So when we walked out of that class me and maddy were like ''Legit Legit Legit. OH MY GOSH-- LEGIT!'' It was soooo funny! Then this high school girl made this huge hot dog and before we got done she held it up and said ''HOT DOG'' and she was like looking around waiting of someone to laugh. It was funny, ok? Haha. and when we got done she and her group walked out , held up her hot dog and she yelled ''GO TO PROP FOOD!!!!!!'' Ya had to be there it was funnnyyy!!! Then on the way there me, maddy, mackenzie, and kass were singing Bad romance by lady gaga really loud even though I hate that song and we were screaming Single ladies by Beyonce. Haha! Then we went to this really cool magic show and we got to learn how to make 3 different lengths of rope turn into 3 of the same length. And we got to keep the string kit too. Then we found our drama teacher and she wanted us to go to a class that was soo borning so we met her there and sat in the back. It was really funny because she was in front of us a few rows and half way through the class she turned to us and gave us a look like she was going to die because of how boring it was! Haha we kept trying to sneak out and we did and got in line for dinner first. Dinner was sooo funny!!! This guy kept saying pis*ed ( *= for the sake of my mom) and this girl kept saying "LANGUAGE!!!'' ''Watch your language'' and he wouldnt stop so she slammed her stuff down and went to find our teacher. She is so awesome and funny! Then our student teacher was like trying to calm her down but both couldnt stop laughing Haha she is awesome! Then our table was like screaming and singing all these songs and yelling and all the high school kids were like staring at us. We were doing our clap thing in what we learned at the junk music and this random guy came and sat by us and tried to do it and he was like ''sorry, im just really werid''. Haha! It was funny! There was this guy with a rainbow sweater on and he was walking around like he was drunk and so me and maddy were like ''oh my gosh!! Its the drunk guy!!'' Haha he was pretty cool even though we never met him. Then we went to a play and went home. It was sooooo fun!!!

Talk

Ok so here is my talk I had to do in church on sunday.

I was asked to speak on what christmas means to me.

When I think of christmas I immediately think of presents, candy, and being with family.

I asked my friends and family what they think of when they hear christmas and they said:

-joy happiness and charity

-love, family and service!

-’’what I am getting’’

- Christmas tree!!!

-i think of giving to other people, or presents!

-little kids sledding, and pine trees....and big fat snowflakes

-i think of the magic of believing.

While those thinks are good things , we still forget the true meaning of christmas.

Without Jesus we wouldn’t even have christmas. Jesus did so much for us while he was on earth but the big think was he atoned for our sins and died for us. To me christmas Is a holiday to remember jesus and his life and give back to him. Whether it is something like reading scriptures more, being kind, or saying prayers. All of those show our savior that we love him.

No cartoons today talk about the true meaning of christmas. But in the charlie brown christmas episode charlie askes everyone ‘’what is the true meaning of christmas??’’ linus reads out of luke chapter 2 and tells everyone what christmas is really about.

And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all ^athe world should be ^btaxed.

And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called ^aBethlehem

To be taxed with Mary his ^aespoused wife, being great with child.

And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

And she brought forth her ^afirstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the ^binn.

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the ^aglory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you ^agood tidings of great ^bjoy, which shall be to all people.

For unto you is ^aborn this day in the city of David a ^bSaviour, which is Christ the ^cLord.

And this shall be a ^asign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

^aGlory to God in the highest, and on earth ^bpeace, good will toward men.

After the shepherds sawJesus Christ, they went and declaired to others what they saw. We can also declair to others, our love of Jesus Christ through our actions, and words.

In closing I want to read this poem I found.

Don't Forget Jesus


Christmas is a special time
To reflect on Jesus Christ
The wonder of His lowly birth
Brings meaning to our lives

There really is no other reason
We celebrate this day
The birth of God’s precious son
And the life He willingly gave

But so much seems to distract us
In the busy-ness of our lives
We lose our focus in all the happenings
Not knowing, we leave out Christ

We lose sight of the true meaning
As we endlessly rush about
Trying to find that perfect gift
Seems to cloud our Saviour out

We need to stop and reflect awhile
Remembering our precious Lord
His birth, His life and sacrifice
And all that He stands for

For though the world may celebrate
It seems though for other reasons
Let’s keep in mind that Jesus Christ
Is the true meaning of the season

|I hope we can all remember the true meaning of christmas this year.|

WHOO HOO!

Mannnn, this year was pretty dang fun!!!!!!! I cant wait till next year, my grade will be the oldest (FRESHMAN!) and my brother comes in! Well, so ya this year was a blast! 1st semester we had the freakin' BEST! art class EVER! lol, so many funny people in that class! There was this really weird guy in that art class, that thought he was going to travel to Ireland by himself? He is way funny! There was this other guy that tricked this girl into thinking his dad was a chef at olive garden, we believed him. but a few days ago he told us he was just kidding. lol! sounds like pretty stupid things, but they were funny! My U.S. history class this semester was the FUNNIES! k so my teacher is an old Australian guy, and hes pretty nice when hes not mad! but when hes mad- let me just tell u it the FUNNIEST thing on the PLANET! K so one of the first times he got mad was when everyone was getting sent out in the hall to do book work, everyone was asking for pencils and our pencils sharpener SUCKS so he was trying to sharpen them, but couldnt so he yanks part of the pencil sharpener off, throws it on the floor, stomps on it, and chucks it in the garbage! and he came back and said '' i am sick of whyping (dk how to spell) your bottoms! you are the reason we are in this bad Economy because no one can take responsibility..... I went to lagoon w/ my school and that was a BLAST. This girl me and mackenzie went with had 100 bucks from her mom, so she bought me a = medium dip-in-dots, (she asked us what size we wanted so i didnt want to be a pig, and i didnt want something too small!) and a cheesecake. She got my friend the same thing but it was a churro instead of cheesecake. Then we went and found my other friend Kassidy so we could go on rattle snake rapids, and i think that group was some of the funniest people ever! K so there was this guy that was w/ us and -WOW- F-U-N-N-Y! Like he would shout ''HOLLA, HEY YALL' WHATS UP!'' to random people and he would like scream it! Then on the ride he would scream but no air would come out... man it was funny stuff. again, sounds dumb but it was so funny! he acts like a little girl! WE went on wicked twice and it was so fun! YEAh this year was pretty easy. I had no projects i had to do, and like no homework! i think i had like 2 assignment that i had to bring home and it was just things like parent interviews for health and stuff. At my school every Friday they pick a teacher and their favorite song plays in the halls. We have song playing every day during the break when we have one more minuet left to get to class, but on Friday its the teachers favorite. They did that this year, and 7th. thats way fun! most of the songs teachers pick are slow country or classical, but they had some good ones this year! Yeah so it was so much fun this year! Sounds pretty stupid but way FUN!

P.S. sorry if anyone likes that u.s. history teacher, i just think that its kinda funny once in a while! hes nice but when he gets mad its just funny cuz he over reacts.
