Just adding the final touches! READY! :) Stinking boutineer. I made Grandma pin it on him for me! haha Boys get it easy. hahah slip the corsage on, and voila! Me and my date, Keagan Condie. woot woot! I had a great time at prom! We went had Breakfast at one of the boy's house, messed around outside there for a while, went golfing, gave up on golfing, went to walmart to get matching sunglasses for our group picture(David got a wheelchair and Garrett bought a pink shirt that said "have to fear, GRANDMA is here!"), and then we went to David Borden's house to mess around, and then home. :) They picked us up again and we took pictures, ate dinner at David's house, went to the dance, and then went to Garrett's house. :) It was a really fun night!

Finally....

I am finally posting our Pictures from our somewhat recent visitors...Thanks for coming, we loved it!

Well I didnt make top 10 and I didnt win anything, but I had so much fun backstage while the top 10 were running around trying to memorize new stuff! haha We got to do a mock self expression where we all (except the 10) went onto the stage and just acted crazy and answered dumb questions. :) We got to eat all the food backstage! hahah I'm so glad that it is over finally! Thanks for all the support that you guys gave me! I love you all! Love, Mikala

Interview

This was my interview outfit for Jr. Miss! The interviews were on Saturday right after I took the ACT (talk about brain-dead! I am feeling impatient to see my score!) and the Pageant is on Wednesday and Thursday! I feel really good about the interview! It was actually kind of fun. I was pretty nervous because the questions they asked us in practice were ones that we had to think about and come up with some really good answers, but the questions they asked me were so easy to answer because they were just about me. I am excited for this to be over soon! haha It has been a really big cause of stress in my life so far! But it has also been a good experience, and I've met some really nice girls.... and some really dumb ones. haha but hopefully I will get some more pictures of the actual day up soon!

Hey Everyone!

Hey Y'all! I hope everyone is doing great! I just figured that it has been a while since I posted and updated everyone about what has been going down in my life. Well I know a few of you know but I applied to get into the radiology program here at Boise State but I was not accepted, so I will not be coming back here after the semester is over. I am still trying to figure out what to do now, but so far I will probably take some classes at CSI and maybe apply to get into their program. Or maybe I will just take a semester or two off so I can figure what I'm going to do. I will figure out things one way or another! ;) Spring break was last week and it was great to be home! It was a really great week! Damon's spring break was a few weeks before mine but he decided to not go back to school until Wednesday morning and then he ended up coming back Thursday night!! I had a chiropractor's appointment in Twin Falls and I took Damon with me. We figured that since we were in Twin we might as well make the most of it, so we went to Shoshone Falls because he had never been there before! There wasn't much water going over the falls but it was still really pretty! I also got to ride in the tractor with him and we built a wooden box for his wireless dog containment system and many other random things! It was great week!! But now I have four weeks from this coming Monday until the semester is over and I get to go home for the summer and figure out what to do next. Oh and I know some of you have seen my new look but here it is for the rest of you... Just so you all know though it was just an April Fool's and I am still definitely a brunette!! :D Well I love you guys!! Have a great April!! Love ~Megan

Steal Head 2011

Birthday Wishes

HaPpY BiRtHdAy Steph!!!!!! We hope you have a great day!! We love you!

Marrysa, swimming under water last summer with Zach and I.

Fast fishing - Catch, Release, repeat. Catch, Release, repeat........

This is my friend Gavin catching a fish in 3 seconds. We easily caught 70 fish in the few hours we fished. Catch and release all day long, they were so thick that they couldn't wait to take a shot at the bait, or another fish would get there first. Very competitive! Beautiful cut-throat trout 10-12 inches long

Hands on Fishing...... Kind-of

This is where I feel under the edge for the fish, I put my hand under their belly. It feels way cool to rub the fishes belly and have it not move away. They can get used to having you there and eventually pay little attention to you.

I saw a gut catch 3 or 4 fish by hand and toss them on the bank, he used a shoe lace and a few pieces of wood to make a camp fire to cook the fish on sticks and eat them. It was way cool to watch.

Under Water Fish Video # 1

This is with Shanna's under water camera. I scare all the fish away as I put the camera in the water, but they come back and swim around close enough to the camera that you can see them well. They were spawning while we were there, but I could not get that on video.

Please dont eat the frog!!!!!!!1

R.J. and a friend hiked into Independance lakes to fish and enjoy the July weather.

I cant wait to see everyone again. I am doing Jr. Miss and it is a bit stressful! The outfits, the talent, and the memorizing. I am having quite a bit of fun though. There are a bunch of really nice girls in there. I actually found one of my friends from kindergarten and I was pretty sure she had fallen off the face of the earth, but here she is! haha anyway, cheer is going well and gymnastics kinda sucks still and that is about all I have been doing because I have been SO STINKING BUSY THAT I DONT HAVE TIME FOR ANY.THING. AT. ALL. It IS finally slowing down a bit now that Girl's Basket Ball Districts are over, but Boy's start up really soon. darn it all. haha I am still dating that Romney guy ;) and I'm having alot of fun with my wonderful friends (when I can find time to squeeze them into my schedule!) It is finally getting warm and I think I am finally coming out of this depression that I have been in all winter long!!! 50 degrees? YES PLEASE! I really cant wait to see you all and hang out with all of my cousins and Aunts and Uncles, and I cant wait to meet Jack, and baby #2!!! Love Kala

Dad's eyes

Dad is home now after having the surgery on his eyelids this morning. We were over there for about 3 1/2 hours---he was gone from his room for about 2 1/2 hours of that but I am sure the actual surgery didn't take that long!! They didn't put him completely out for it but he is mostly completely out now. He looks like he has been playing in the make-up & over did it on the blue & purple! He has more stitches than I will take time to count, both over the eyebrows & on the lids. He was having anxiety over the whole ordeal so he started last night with anxiety pills, took another one this morning + a pain pill for his back, he got over there & they gave him Valium plus whatever else they had to give him to do the surgery, then when they brought him out they told me they had give him more pain med. after surgery bacause it hurt his back having to lie there, then when we got home he needed another pain pill. He is sleeping now & I don't think he will be awake much the rest of the day.

HaPpY BiRtHdAy SaIgE!! Hope you have a great day!

Happy Birthday Tyson! I tried to make the words bigger so you don't have to strain your old eyes to read this but I couldn't figure out how. Hopefully Carrie got you some bifocals for your birthday! Have a good day!!
