There's a first for everything

Helllllllo! and welcome to my first post on my new blog. I'm impressed if you're actually reading this :) Get ready for a long first post.... 
I've always thought about the possibility of having a blog one day. But I think what would I even blog about in my life? So I figured I would get one when I actually had exciting things happening, like when I was getting married/having a family and all that fun stuff! 
Well GUESS WHAT....I'm not married/getting married anytime soon, nor do I have any children. I really just made this blog for some fun. :D I hadn't really planned on it. But I realized some others my age who I'll be going to school with in the future have one! And hey, maybe it will help with getting the journaling, I should be doing, done. 

So, I do have something super exciting that happened in my life!
 I GRADUATED!!!! 
My cap and gown were a little to big, but oh well:P 
Graduation was so wonderful!! 
These two crazy girls made these signs. Audrey's holding the signs to spell out my name and Heather has the Seniors 2011! And they surprised me and decorated my car! I loved it! 

So as I got to my seat I started looking in the stands to find my family, I could definitely spot them! Ah it was so great seeing them all cheering for me! I was so blessed to have so much family get to come out and see me graduate. They were a little loud... but that's ok! They kept me entertained during the ceremony. Every time I looked over at them they would attempt to spell out different words with the letters from my name on the signs. It was hilarious! 
 (I'm the second one from the end on the 3rd row:)

The ceremony was really nice! I walked across that stage as they called my name and I shook a bunch of hands. But it was all worth it! 
The tassel was worth the hassle!
officially graduated!
We got to have our traditional fireworks show!
 CLASS of 2011! :)
My Dad, Mom and Sister who have done so much for me to get me to this point in my life! Love them!
 My Mema!
Best friend!
My little sister who I know is going to miss me making faces at here in the hall:D
We finally graduated!! 

I had to pick up my actual diploma at the high school the week after graduation. 
It feels so good to finally be done with that!!

I will no longer have to sit in a classroom here.....
..... hallelujah!
It's been a good 10 years of living in Midlothian. We moved here when I was in the 3rd grade. It's so crazy to think about all of my past school years. The friendships, the teachers, the drama, the memories. And I can look back and see how I have changed over the years. BUT I'm so dang excited to move on to here... 
I am so ready to start school at BYU-I in the fall! I'm so blessed with this opportunity to go to this school where I can feel the spirit on campus and continue to embrace the gospel. I know it will definitely be a difference from high school, but it will be a positive difference that I'm really excited about! The anticipation is going to kill me. The only thing I'm basically waiting for now is move in day! SEPTEMBER 8th!! I've got all my classes registered for. I got that done with as little stress as possible. But there's still a lot to do here. Including packing. Audrey get's to move into my bedroom. It's been a great ten years in that bedroom, haha

Well this is my blog. Let's see how often I keep up with this. Because this took way to long.  Maybe I'll get better at it and learn how to do more things on here:)
