Dreams do come true

Well, this has been a great week! Been on vacation with my family since last friday! According the title of my post I bet you could easily guess where we went... DISNEYLAND!! The happiest place on earth. I had a great time with my family but I sure am glad to be home! So has anyone been to the new carsland in California Adventures?  Well you have got to go! It is absolutely fantastic! The ride radiator springs is by far the best ride! Soo much fun! Your probably wondering what dream of mine came true while we were at disneyland. Well let me tell you! I've always wanted to have a ride break dowb while I was in the middle of is so that I could walk through the ride with all the lights on and thats exactly what happened to us! It happened to us on the new cars ride Radiator Springs. It was a pretty awesome experience if I may say so myself! Well untill next time! -pianoaholic

Once again...

Once again I have failed to be consistent in updating my blog. It seems that with the more technology that comes out the more distracted I become. I recently discovered that I can update my blog from my phone though. Pretty nifty huh?! Because of this new found discovery I hope to be able to once again take a shot at my gosl again. Life as a 16 year old is absolutely fantastic! I don't know how much better it could possibly get! Braces off? Check!  Babysitting like crazy, driving like crazy, and dating like crazy... yeah... it doesn't get much better then this!:):):) check in weekly (fingers crossed) for more of the life of a pianoaholic!

Family

For all those who used to follow my blog when I first got it in 2008 I am sorry for all the boring torture I put you through! I went back and read all my old posts and let me just tell... I'm sorry for being boring. I promise that i will try better to keep you as entertained as possible.
Yesterday (Sunday June 3) I was able to attend the baby blessing of my sweet new cousin Tatum Pearl. She is such  a doll! Congrats to Michael and Heather.

Yesterday was an exciting day for my family. Not only were we able to attend the baby blessing of the beautiful baby you see above but we were also able to visit my new baby cousin who was born on June 1st. They don't have a name picked out for her yet but here the precious baby girl is anyway...

Nothing explains moments and memories in our lives better then pictures do.  On Saturday (June 2nd) We went on a visit with my brothers and we went to As you wish the pottery painting place. Unfortunately Dominic my middle brother wasn't able to come with us because he went on a camping trip with his Group. Here we are... my lovable siblings.







Yeah, we have fun together!

For our big family Christmas presents we received a week long cruise and season passes to Disneyland! It was one of the best things we could have received! Family vacations are the best because you get to spend so much time with your family and reinstate your family relationship.








Family is the best gift that God could have ever given us. I don't understand how people can think that there isn't a God with all the beautiful creations we have all around us. I love my family so much and I know that God gave us families in order to prove his love for us!

Long time... No post.

I recently had the crazy idea to check out my blog that I have seemed to let slip between my fingers. It's been two years since I posted last so I decided that posting more recently wouldn't be that bad of an Idea. Lots has gone on in the past two years. My youngest sibling was baptized in November of 2011 and she is as adorable as ever!
Wouldn't you agree with me?:)

During the summer of 2011 we had to make a heartbreaking decision to have my three adopted brothers be taken out of our home. We still keep in contact with them and they are still going to be ours forever because they are sealed to us in the temple! I don't know how we would be able to handle half the things we do without the principles of the Gospel.

This year I went to girls camp as a YCL (youth camp leader). It was quite a different experience of girlscamp than what I'm used to. It great being able to go and be the one who helped to bring the spirit and change girls lives. If I went to girlscamp to do nothing more then touch one girls life then the whole experience was worth it. For one of my devotionals I gave Imade this handout...




Life sure is a journey and it is not easy. It is rocky at times but as long as we keep pushing through we will be able to make it to the finish of our race! Remember who you are always and never forget the goals you have set for yourself.




With all the spiritual parts of life also comes the fun. I was able to attend the Taylor Swift concert with a couple of my cousins and it was so much fun! An experience I will never ever forget!
Last night I attended the He is we concert at the Nile Theater with Logan Porter and that was a super Fun concert.

A week or two ago my Piano teacher took me to go see the phoenix symphony Orchestra. Let me just tell you, you do not know what music is till you go to something like that! It was absolutely beautiful and such an uplifting moment. It makes me appreciate the piano and other instruments so much more. (which is crazy because I love PIANO more then anything already.) The pianist Olga Kern played there she was incredible. Check her out on youtube.




Well, I'll try to keep you posted on events that happen with my life. Keep on checking out the life of a Pianoaholic!:)

Summer is at its end:)

I'm only happy to say its the end of our summer!:) Wow it sure has been an amazing summer might i add. California was a blast:) For the first time, this summer i got stung by a jellyfish, and let me tell you its definitely not something i would like to experience more in my life. It hurt pretty bad but my legs were numb so it wasn't as bad as it could have been. I'm sad to say that i have no battle scars from it:( I was SO disappointed when the marks all over my leg were gone the next morning. I don't even know how they went away so quickly.. its not like i put medicine on them or even peed on it like your supposed to;) Well that sure was an interesting day on the beach. Girls camp this year was good but pretty miserable at the same time. I pored rain the whole time we were there. Don't get me wrong I LOVE THE RAIN but not when you have limited amount of clothes you can't dry anything its freezing and its super muddy so your doing your best to keep the mud off of all your clothes so you won't have to change them... ya.. not the best experience. So yesterday i went to the lake with my cousins and boy am i sore today! I tried wake boarding for the first time it was sooooo much fun! I think its something everyone needs to try in there life time cause its just that fun! I was surprised that the very first time i was sitting out on the water and the boat started going i got up!:) Whoo it was awesome i felt soo happy and full of joy haha:) It was a lot of work though, cause i can barely move this morning. Well I'm very anxious for school to start!:) It sure has been an amazing summer but I'm ready to be back on a schedule:) Hope everyone is just as excited as i am!:)

CALIFORNIA!

Well now that we are half way through the summer its finally starting to feel like its summer! now that my summer has gotten started it has been amazing!
Right now i am in California!:) I have been in California since the 10Th of June by my self with out my whole family! All though it has been pretty nice i am beginning to miss them a lot! The other day i was talking to my mom and she said that my brothers had said to her why did Savanna live here one day and than all of a sudden not live here anymore it was pretty funny! Ginger and Richie are so cute! They both called me to tell me how much they miss me and how they can't wait till i come home! I loved it! It makes me realize that even though they can get annoying sometimes i really need to take the time to think about how i need to be more nice to them cause they are my little brothers and sisters and they really look up to me! well California really has been so much fun! It feels like i have been here forever but than again it doesn't. The first week i was here we just hung out and went to the beach and then Ashley and i hung out with our cousin Nick. Ashley and i went to girl scamp with her ward and it was really fun! We were supposed to be boating like the whole time but than the boat broke but that's okay we had a lot of fun anyway! Our theme was fishers of men. I really liked the theme it really hit me than we need to really try and reach out to others and bring them into this Gospel because the second coming is coming soon. We all had the opportunity to provide a devotional for all of us and i decided to do mine on virtue! It turned out really good. It was pretty fun to go to a different girls camp where they do everything different it was just a really good experience. I can't wait to be able to go to my girls camp. I love girls camp so much its always sooo amazing! Well Ashley and i have had a really good time here! Surprisingly we aren't sick of each other yet. Well i will be coming home on Sunday and i can't wait to see everyone! Oh ya one more thing so the other day Me Ashley and her friend Morgan went to go t.p. this boy that my cousin likes! It was so much fun so we got caught and i had taken off my shoes and i didn't have time to grab them so we just ran and i left my shoes. So like ten min later we go back to get them and they had already picked up all the toilet paper which was crazy cause we had done an amazing job. Well so i saw my shoes there and i ran to go get them and than i got caught and i got ducked taped to a chair it was the funnest thing of my life i sware haha it was the best! So i broke out of the duck tape when they taped my down and than they taped me again and i got out again so they decided to tape me to a pole and i didn't end up getting let go till like an hour and a half later it was pretty funny! That's not the whole story though I'm just gonna have to tell the whole story later. But anyway I'm excited to see everyone!

Well on my birthday my aunt was kind enough to take me and a friend and do a photo shoot for us! It was so much fun! and the pictures turned out AMAZING! I will post some pictures towards the end of this post. So i chose to take Rachael with me to get pictures taken obviously cause that's who i do everything with! Well i can't believe that this school year is coming to an end! its crazy so many things happened this year.. good and bad. I made a bunch of new friends this year and i also lost a couple friends. I lost my best guy friend which is really sad:( but it okay ill get over it eventually haha:) who needs guy friends anyway;) This year i also lost a friend who i was really close with for a long time. It's sad to think that i probably won't ever be able to be friends with her ever again. I guess things happen for a reason though. Well as of today we have one three days of school left which is completely crazy and insane! I'm going to miss so many people so much over the summer! I'm really excited for summer at the same time because its like a fresh start to a brand new school year. I'm so excited cause i get to go to my cousins girls camp up in California and we might go to the beach and stuff or to a lake. So it should be so much fun! It's so crazy to think that i will be going into high school! Time is just flying by way to quick and with the blink of an eye i will be dating and driving! How crazy!! Sorry this post is kind of so random and all out of order but you know the point of a blog is to just say what you feel and what has been going on so I'm just saying what ever pops into my head! So this year so many great new songs and movies have came out! i think that this year has had the best chick flicks! Haha such as the last song, dear John, and Romeo and Juliet. Those movies are all super duper cute!:) I absolutely love having a sister! She is the best! With all the boys living in my house its kind of nice to just have one sister cause than when they go on father and sons camp outs its like the best! We had so much fun when my brothers were gone. We went to the mall for like 9 hours and than we say Romeo and Juliet and than the next day we just hung out and stuff so it was pretty amazing! well this weekend i hung out with my long lost best friend Bethany we had so much fun! We went and saw Romeo and Juliet( yes i saw it twice) and than we went swimming. While we were swimming we totally killed a bunch of random and newly discovered bugs and than we created some of our own so that was pretty exciting! this year has just been so amazing thanks to everyone for really just being there and being my friend and making this school year be AWESOME! I LOVE YOU ALL!!
