Whoa...

There is a whole ton to talk about now because I've not had much to talk about until about 1 week ago. This week I went to Education week at BYU with my friend Bryen and his sister Amber. It was pretty cool. We sat around at the Smith Field House for 12 hours a day and listened to people like John Bytheway and Brad Wilcox and Scott Anderson. Even though it was pretty tiring, it was so worth it. The friday of that week I diddn't go and instead me and my family went down to St. George for the weekend (including Sunday because all of our church was canceled for the Oqurr Mountain Utah Temple dedication which was absoutly amazing which we actually attended so we diddn't have to go to the stake center on Sunday so we had the day off). It was way fun. On Saturday we went bouldering al around Red Rock Canyon. Then we went back to the Hotel and swam in the pool/hottub. After which we watched TV for a bit and then went to Chuck-O-Rama for dinner. The food was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I really liked it. Sunday we drove around St. George and visited all the historical sites such as Brigham Young's winter home and the St. George Temple which is the first finished and dedicated in the world that had all of the ordinances avaliable in it. Then we went to visit our Aunt Olive who is somehow related to us on my dads side. She was very sharp for a 90 year old lady! My dad said that just a little while ago she went on a Safari to Africa! It was awesome to visit with her and hear her storys!

Mom Away!

Guess What! My Mom went on a 5 day vacation to Texas to see some of my cousins with their new baby and brought half the family with her so me and three of my brothers (including seth) stayed home with Dad. She's gonna get home tomorrow at midnight. So far it's been pretty fun. It's been great to spend so much time with Dad. On the first day we went to see the new Star Trek movie. It was pretty good except for a few bad parts. The second day we went to our grandmas and visited with some cousins that live in Dallas and partied and ate pizza with them. The Third day was pretty rainy so we stayed home and did stuff with eachother. The fourth day was sunday so we did our usual Sunday stuff and went to Temple Square and watched the Joseph Smith movie. The fifth day I'll have to get back to you on. It's still Sunday.
Good night

I'm Sleepin in!

Hello everybody! So there's not much new other than schools coming pretty soon and my moms made me go back-to-school shopping and while we were there they had this flat screen TV set up so you could play 'Wii Sports Resort'. It's basically a much better, funner, more realistic verson of Wii Sports (the game that comes with the Wii)http://www.wiisportsresort.com/en/index.html .Aside from that, We're starting a Arbor business as a family to save up for our missions and we've just about finished our first one for our grandma. My family did most of it while I was at week long scout camp so I didn't do as much as everybody else. That's all for now. Bye!

Extra! Extra! Read all about it!

Me and my family just spent 2 days up in Fairview Utah where my great grandparents lived. We spent our time fishing and watching parades. (And riding in my grandpas new four-wheeler thing.) And guess what was waiting for us when we got home? It turns out that a stray cat had 3 kittens in the window well of our house and my aunt had found them when she went in our basement to find something. She then moved them to a basket on the side of the window well. They're pretty cute!

MYUCK!

Helloooooooooo Everybody! I just recently got home from week-long scout camp. It was really fun. On the way to the camp we drove into Wyoming and back into Utah and in the first 2 seconds of being in Wyoming we went around a bend and saw a 'Liquor and Fireworks' store.(We saw at least 20 more before we left Wyoming.) One of the scouts stated that if someone lit a match in there the whole thing would blow up! On Monday afternoon we did Medieval Engineering, on Tuesday we did Kayaking and Mountain Biking, on Wendsday We left in the morning and did a all-day overnight hike which lasted to the afternoon of Thursday on which we did climbing and repelling, and on Friday we did Project WILD which was a bunch of fun activity games that taught us about wild life and migratations and in the afternoon they did a bunch of mountain man games which were pretty funAND I'm very excited for the upcoming Court of Honor because I know for sure that I'm getting at least 2 activity pins and my Varsity Letter with a Gold Bar to Boot! Also I found that I'm only 3 Merit badges and my Eagle project away from getting my Eagle so I'm very excited!
See ya'll Later,

FIREWORKS!!!

Happy 4th of July Everyone! I haven't posted in a while so there's a lot to tell! First of all, I just barely got my pachriartical blessing! (Awesome.) My Grandpa is the pachriarch for a different stake so he was able to do it for me. It was amazing and gave me so much insight for my future. Then, Mom took us to tour the BYU campus. It was pretty cool. Mookie loved it because he is currantly obbsessed with BYU in general and it was his idea because of said obsession. It lasted all day and it ended at the BYU Creamery. Also, Empire at War came and I really like it. Even my parents agree that It's OK to play as long as I keep it to a hour a day. My Favorate part is the space battles. This morning was the Andersons ward famous breakfast. It was Delicious! Afterwards we played a couple hours of Volleyball. Then, we did some yard work (our gardens are doing great and growing well, I'm so excited for fresh tomatos and such) and planted corn. Most of my family is in the Riverton play 'Joseph and the amazing Technacolor Dreamcoat', everyone except Me, Mom, and Seth, so we went to the Riverton Town days and watched them try to do a promo for the show with about 1/6 of the cast. Then we went up to my grandparents house, they're are out of town, and watched Toy Story on their huge projector with surround sound. Now we're just waiting for my mom to get home from wherever she is so we can do sparklers and watch the Riverton fireworks.

Hi folks! It's been a while, but now I think I have enough to do a good post. First of all, I've finished school for the year and I've been able to spend the last 2 weeks alone with my mom, Seth, and Annie. It's been really fun except for she forced me to go summer shopping with my (shopaholic?) aunt and made me buy happy shorts (neon plaid shorts). Another thing is that I earned another 30$ at my job. (Sweet!) Also, I found out about the craziest card game I've ever played. It's called 'Munchkin'. I played it over at one of my friends and it's really fun. It's a role playing game where you get armor and weapons and such and defeat the wierdest monsters ever such as the 'Plutonium Dragon' and the 'Shadow Nose'. We would have bought it by now but an expansion pack is 15$! An Expansion Pack!!! That's ridiculious! Also, I'm going to EFY next week. Hopefully I'll be with my friend who's going to the same session and place. Another thing is that I've stoped playing Age of Empires III. It turned out a lot more bloody and violent then we expected. But we got a Different game which is a lot less bad then the other game and funner (In my opinion). It's called EMPIRE AT WAR and it's StarWars based. We got it off Ebay and it should come in a day or 2.
See ya later!

Crazy!

Things have been a little wild recently because my mom slipped a disk while weeding so I had to help tend for a while. But the good news is that she was told that she would make a full natural recovery without surgery, but she does need physical therapy. My mom should be up and running in a couple weeks! Thats all for now!

Not much...

So the 5th Percy Jackson book came and it is friekin AWESOME! I strongly suggest buying and reading the series. Also I'm a lot closer to the end of homeschool for the year. I'v only got about 10% left on math then I'm done. Also, my relatives came to visit! My aunt and her 3 kids came today and we haven't seen for about a year or more. Not much other then that. Bye!

Sorry for taking so long...

Our internet has been pretty sucky lately so I haven't posted for a while, but a LOT of stuff has happened. First of all, I found out that I have to be 80% done with math and 70% done with all of the other subjects by May 22nd so we're going into over-drive mode to get there. We're gonna make it though. Another thing is those books I told you about earlier, the Percy Jackson series, the 5th and probably final book is coming out on monday at midnight! I'm so excited! It really is a good series, probably the best I've ever read. www.percyjacksonbooks.com Also I've recently went to the end-of-the-year testingfor homeschool and it was the easiest end-of-the-year testing I've ever done. That's thanks to the fact that for the first time in my school life it feels like I've actually learned something doing homeschool. My brother Mckay is going to be Bert in Bluffdale Elementary's Marry Poppins Play. We're havin alot of trouble putting together the one-man band. There are instruments all over the house and people are constantly playing them with everybody else telling them to stop. Also, that Age Of Empires game is really fun.I'm really enjoying it.
