Full Speed Ahead

As all of you know, I got a cauterization done on Thursday, which was soooo painful! Unfortunately, I have been resting/crying in bed for the last several days. BUT! Good News! Today I feel soooooo much better and am able to read and write and move around and feel good again! No More Pain! WooHooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so glad that I finally feel better today and am praying that it lasts. Also, Happy President’s Day! Everyone is out of school today which is super fun! Sadly, Mom and Dad still have work today, and it’s super busy down at the clinic meaning late night work. Kind of sad, but a blessing at the same time. Anyway, have a super fantabulous amazing awesome day today!

Love,

Chelsey

PS I dyed my hair brown on Wednesday last week! Since I’ve been recovering I haven’t been able to put up a pic yet (Mom told me I looked like I was run over by a truck), but I’ll try and have one up tomorrow! Till then, here is an adorable picture of Baby (our puppy) when she was little, sleeping on my shoe. <3

Valentines Day!!!!

Hi guys! I hope everyone had a super-fantabulous-awesome-Amazing Valentines Day and got to spend lots of time with loved ones! I love a day totally dedicated to celebrating our loved ones, how fun!

So, with my Valentines Day, first I cleaned the house and studied for a few hours. Then the fun began! Julia and Ashlyn came over and we made valentines cupcakes which was so fun! After delivering some of the cupcakes to Julia’s young women leader, we went to old town Murrieta and took some pictures! We got there right at sunset, which was sooo pretty!

We stopped by Plowboys and got some chocolate covered treats, yum!

Ashlyn and Julia with their chocolate :)

This picture is one of my favorites from the whole night! They are such pretty girls!

Haha, we were in front of a funeral house for these pictures, Julia is so silly!

I really liked how the sky looks in this picture!

I like how this picture is at an angle. So cool!

Afterward the photo shoot, we grabbed some food and went back to my place to eat. What a fun night it was! I’m so lucky to have my awesome friends :)

Love,

Okay, Thursday was a VERY important day! First, I finally got to see Ashlyn play soccer! She was sooooo fantastic! I’ve heard soccer was rough but oh my goodness, they were nearly killing each other out there! Sooo intense! Ash, you were so great!

Thursday night, I got to see Julia perform in West Side Story! The show was aMaZiNg, with totally awesome music and choreography and it was so great! (PS, the Play it Cool in the title is WSS inspired :) What a night!   Thanks Michael for going to all the awesome events with me!

So, Saturday we went to the Wild Animal Park! Woohoo! There was the cuuuutest baby elephant (six and a half weeks old!)

Eeeeeeee don’t you just want to cuddle it forever???? Also, there was a baby giraffe!!!!!

We got annual passes to the zoo. Baby animals whenever I want for the rest of the year EEEEEEEE!!!!!!!And there is a hot air balloon there, Yaaaaay!

PS I think my blog is starting to sound a bit too much like the ‘Seriously, So Blessed’ blog :D

In the Sky

Today, mom and I traveled home from Utah. The trip to Utah was so much fun and I am pleased with my audition for BYU. We rested a lot at Grandma’s house and were able to visit with the Heaton's, which was all fun.

One of my very favorite parts of traveling though, is the airplane ride. Unlike Shari (who is terrified of plane rides), I love being in the sky, seeing the clouds below me and having the thrill of being 30,000 feet above the ground.

Today, when the plane took off from Salt Lake, we saw the most amazing sight! There was fog everywhere but once we were over the clouds we saw the fog surrounding the snow-covered mountains. It was sooooo gorgeous! I wish I could have taken a picture, but I didn’t have my camera with me, but it looked almost exactly like this

Isn’t it so pretty? I could have looked at  it forever! I love how the world looks from the sky!

My Favorite Thing

Okay, so with my theme “Create” for 2011, one thing I’ve been working on is creating new hairstyles, to break out of pulling my hair up in a ponytail almost every day. And for Christmas, one gift I received was these awesome (Pink!) hot curlers, which I loooove using now! My new favorite thing is having some awesome curls!

Eeeeee! My hair never looks like that, and it’s so cool! I finally can have curls like Whitney and Shari, it’s so exciting!

Foundation For A Better Life

Ever heard of this organization? I absolutely Love them, they do such amazing things worldwide. They do food drives for third world countries and write “GoodNews Letters” about amazing things happening all around the world. My favorite part of their organization though is their “Pass it On” billboards and commercials. They advertise good morals like honesty and integrity. How awesome is that?

Here is their latest commercial:

How cool that they work so hard to promote something so good. If you want to check out their website, its:  http://www.values.com/ .

So You Think You Can Dance

Ever seen the show? It’s awesome! Lately, I’ve had the song “Gravity” by Sara Bareilles stuck in my head, and they did an amazing dance to it a few seasons ago. They guy looks so evil in it, don’t you think? It’s so intense!

By the way, it’s about addiction, which I think makes it all the more intense. So cool!

 

Oh, my other Sara Bareilles song I’m just in love with is “King of Anything”  This one has a much happier beat to it :)

 

Love,

Chelsey
