School Musical

At school we did a music program.

We practiced for several weeks before

we sang in front of the school then that

night we sang for our families. I was kind

of nervous, but I felt better when I saw my friends.

Dad and Jolene liked the songs.

The crazy boys wanted in our picture

Listen to one of our songs, its in Japanese!!

Happy Birthday To Me!!

Today I turn 9!! It has been fun. Mom and Jolene

decorated the tv room with streamers and balloons

all pink!! I love pink. Jolene and I went on the slip

and slide. Today was warm enough not like the other

days when it rained or the wind blew. Tonight when

dad gets home we will have a family party. Mom is

making my favorite dinner, taco salad bowls. It has

been a good day. I just wish grandma and pop pop

could be here. Grandma got her knee surgery so they

will be here later in the summer. I really miss them.

Aunt Kristen's Birthday

Congratulations it's your special day

and your on my blog!

Happy Birthday Aunt Kristen!!

I wish you could come

down for my birthday

again and we could celebrate

us together. I love you!

These are my favorite pictures of you and mom.

Crazy legs

I told you I was going to wear the socks

to school with my shorts. My mom took

this picture of me after school.

I was very tired and fell asleep.

And the answer is....

Me and my sister in crazy socks our neighbor

gave us. I love them. I am going to wear

mine to school on Monday with shorts.

Flowers

I really love floweres. When we went to Washington

for my Uncle Brandon's wedding in 2006 I took

my mom's camera to take some of my own pictures. At the wedding and in my Uncle Craig's backyard of some of his beautiful flowers.

This is my favorite because I was with

my cousin Adiranna.

What Raychel Means

You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in. You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising. You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care. You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily. You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind. A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable. You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is.
