My Julia!

Today I would like to share with you a post about one of my very favorite people! Julia Pulley! She is one of my very best friends and one of the nicest people I know. I have been hanging out with her a lot lately and we have had so many fun adventures! Last week it was pouring down rain and we went rain sledding and played in the leaves and mud at the park. Afterwards we walked back to my house soaking wet.

We were sooo wet but we had so much fun!

Afterwards, once we dried off and changed we went to the clinic to see the new clinic pet, a sphinx (hairless cat) named Buck. He is a funny looking little critter, and when seen by clients is often mistaken for a Chihuahua, alien, or rat. Shari describes holding him perfectly, saying “it’s like cuddling a raw chicken”

And once we were done at the clinic, we came home, ate pie and went swimming!

We have had so many other adventures too! Going to summer scholars together, playing on her trampoline,  looking at Christmas lights and baking many delicious pastries.

Julia is so fun to be around and one of the sweetest most caring people I know! I’m so glad I’ve been able to have so many amazing adventures with her and am so excited that I might have the opportunity to room with her in college!

Love,

Our Puppies!

Our family is full of animal lovers. With Dad being a veterinarian, that probably helped sparked it but that love grows even more with Whitney and Shari having pets of their own all the way in Texas and Washington. I can’t help but smile when I see Brawny and Baby terrorizing the house on a daily basis. With their cousins Lizzy and Murri and Luna it is quite a party!

Brawny’s reindeer outfit was a little big on him…

Murri and Baby added to the fun too…

They played and played and played all Thanksgiving and it was quite an adventure walking all three puppies at once. :-)

And now Luna is part of the party too! I don’t have a picture of her though, but I’ve seen a couple and she is so darn cute! Little babies. I’m glad to know that Whitney and Shari have their puppies to keep them company when they are so far away (oh and I guess they have husbands too, not like they count though… hehe). What would we do without man’s best friend? They sure are fun!

Love,

Pearly Whites!

It’s finally happened! After a year and a half of waiting, my braces are finally off! Yay! I got them off on Thursday and I’m so excited to have them look so straight and pretty!

Here’s a couple pics for now but I’ll have better ones soon once I have someone to take my picture. Smile

Getting Organized

As I’m getting ready to hopefully go to college this next year, I’ve been becoming ultra-aware of getting organized. I have organized the pictures in my computer, my closet, and write out everything in my planner every day. Tomorrow I plan to tackle the mess my room is. I really hope when I get to college I’ll be able to be a tidy roommate! I am getting so excited for college!

Love,

Chelsey

Shopping Spree!

Okay, so this year’s Christmas is going to be different. Every other year I have kind of just tagged my name on with my parents to give gifts. However, today, for like, the very first time ever, I went Christmas shopping! Shari and Mom and I all went to the mall and then Shari and I went to several more stores. Today was so much fun being able to find gifts for other people and to be able to choose them myself, and buy them and sneak them up to my room. Also, it was so fun being able to hang out with Shari today. We laughed so much, and got stuck in the Target parking lot and helped find presents for our other family members. Today was so great being able to have such a good time with her. So, on that happy note. Goodnight!

Sweetness!

I don’t know why, but all I have been wanting these last few days is cupcakes! I have been dreaming about cupcakes, drooling over cupcakes, and longed for a spare moment to bake cupcakes. A few months ago Julia and I made the most amazing cupcakes ever! Here are a few pictures so you can start craving cupcakes too!

On that happy note, I think I’ll go eat some frosting. Nom Nom Nom.

Welcome!

Hello! This is my new blog! I know, the family one never really gets used, but this is my own personal one which means I’m going to try reeeeeeally hard to keep it updated. This will hopefully be easier now that I’m not in school. So, on that happy note, check this blog for adventures in California, because there is sure to be plenty that will follow!
