I am super excited about being able to play again for Western and am super excited to be able to play the sport I very much love and getting to play with a ton of my friends and some people that I normally don't hang out with all the time. I get to hang out with them during volleyball which is awesome!!! But then I am super nervous about making the team. People say.. you made it last year so you will definitely make it this year, but I don't really go by that cause people get better and you never know.. so, I am super nervous! Well, I will let you all know how it all goes!

Olympics!

Hey everyone, can you believe it... the olympics are over tonight!!!! 

Man... I don't know about you, but I absolutely loved watching the olympics!  It was so much fun to watch people from our country compete in all different sports. My favorite sports to watch would have to be beach volleyball, volleyball, gymnastics and swimming! I loved to watch Misty May and Kerri Walsh, Shawn Johnson and Nastia Liukin and definitely Michael Phelps!!! Well, I hope that everyone had a great time watching the olympics these past twoweeks!!!!

Vacation Bible School!


Hey everyone, so the past 5 days I have been involved in our church's Vacation Bible School (VBS!) It started this past Sunday and went until last night (Thursday!) The theme was the movie "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything," so everyone was all piratie! I was on the worship team which does the songs and motions! At the first few nights I would always get really nervous because this year we had to sing sing for real! Last year when I did this all we had to do was just sing with the cd though... so we had no mics or anything! But it turned out really good and we all did a great job and they said that we all sounded great! FUUUUUUUUU! It was tons of fun... we would sing at the beginning chill out in the middle while all of the kids were doing fun stuff around the church and then we would come back and sing and everything at the end in the sanctuary! The people that were in the worship team were me, Chloe C. Haley G. and Lacey and our awesome leader Mrs. Candy Brugger!!! We all had so much fun together! And we all felt like little pop-stars wearing the little mics on our face and being backstage and having little kids run up to us and giving us hugs and telling us there favorite songs...lol! And our wonderful youth pastor Kara was also involved in the VBS! She was the commodore (one of the pirate actors,) she did a great job and it was tons of fun to watch her!!! And the stage was amazing! All the years that I have been to VBS this year had the best stage!!! The whole stage was a giant pirate ship and they had smoke machines and TONS of different-colored lights all around the ship!!! At times it was sorta hard to see hehee but it was so cool.. and we got used to it!

Back from Tennessee!!!

Hey everyone, so me and my family got back from visiting my aunt on Sunday around 4. Tennessee was a blast! 

We left for the Detroit airport around 7is and we got on the plane around 8:45! We then arrived in Tennessee at 10:30, but 9:30 Tennessee time! (hour back in Nashville) After we got all of our luggage and our rental car we headed off to my aunts! Her house was about 30 min. away from the airport. When we got to my aunts she showed us around her awesome and beautiful neighborhood! Her neighborhood was amazing! There was two pools with a water slide on it, a adult pool (18 years and older,) tennis courts, a HUGE club house that had a movie theater, art studios, game room, work-out/gym room, and a dance/palates studio, all inside the club house and some other rooms! The houses were amazing there was also a house in her neighborhood that was selling for almost $2,000,0o0! ISN'T THAT CRAZY! Well, all of those houses were up on the hill away from everyone...lol! After we looked around we headed for downtown Franklin! When we got there we went to this really good restaurant called "Mello Mushroom!" After that we went to a chocolate store that was downtown. After that we headed back to my aunts and we all went swimming! The water felt great! After about two or three hours of that we headed back to her house and all got ready for dinner. That night we went to this amazing chinese/hibachi restaurant. We all got the hibachi and sushi! MAN, WAS IT GOOD! After that we got gelato, which is this amazing Italian ice cream! Then the next day we all woke up and played tennis! It was so hot, oh my word! Then after we played we went into the club house, got ready and ran to the pool! That day we just hung out at the pool! For lunch we just got food at the pool! (they have food that you can buy there) After we were all done at the pool we headed off to my aunts and got ready for dinner! Before we went to dinner though we went to this shoe store called "Marty and Liz" that is amazing! We go every time we visit my aunt! The store gets shoes that have never been worn or have, but only by models that model them! But they look brand new!!! So this store gets the really cool and expensive ones... but they are really cheap now, since they are out of season or whatever! Then after that we went into this cool little downtownie thing and we ate at a really good Asian restaurant!!! After that we got gelato again, but at a different place and then we went through downtown Nashville. We saw the Titans station, the Country Music Museum/Hall of Fame, and all of the music/recording/big companies buildings, we saw my aunts old office and we just rode around and looked around!!! And that night was a Titans game so it was pretty packed! Then the next morning we got up around 8:30 and got ready for the airport! Our plane got delayed by 45 minutes so we got home at around 4! Then I went straight to rehearsal for VBS! 
Well, have a great week everyone! TTYL
