Smelling Like Campfire

So I went to the ocean for the Laurel High Adventure and it was awesome!! The drive to our campsite in Newport took FOREVER, but we tried to have fun by singing to High School Musical 3 over and over. Once we got there we ran down to the beach and splashed around. The ocean never gets boring and is amazing every single time I see it. Wed morning I went with some friends and went running down on the beach. It is great, I just ran and wished that I didn't have to get back to camp so soon because it is so pretty. Anyways, Wednesday's weather was perfect, and we spent a lot of time down at the beach. (after going into town and finding some sweet bracelets) I went boogie boarding and that was awesome!!! SO FUN!! I had never gone swimming in the ocean before and was not quite ready for the saltiness of it getting in my mouth and nose, but it was fun..even when I ate it. I loved it. We also went to the tide pools and played with the sea anemones and star fish, built an amazing sand town, went to an aquarium, saw sea lions laying around (one even pooped, peed, and barfed), went into a legit hippie shop and bought a unicorn bumper sticker, had a camp fire down at the beach, and went kayaking on Beaver Creak.

On the car ride home we watched Step Up, and Step Up 2. I stiking love those movies. I also watched the So you think you can Dance finale with Kareen late that night..Im just in the mood for dancing shows. By the way...JEANINE WON!! wooo!! My favorite from the beginging..and also....she is with Jason, and I really like that. Well, Im gonna up load some pictures now, clean the bathroom, then find something fun to do. =]

Pictures

Notice Moms new T-shirt?? Kareen and Stef and Dad got her lots of new HOT clothes. Shes a babe at 55 years old. ;) But I have to say, not as cute as Baby Marcela, cus that girl is just a doll.

Baby Marcela

Marcela Kae Dickman is here!! She is the most precious little baby ever! We were all waiting at the hospital Saturday afternoon, and at 4:10 PM we heard her first cry...which actually made me and Kareen and Rachel cry too because we were so happy. I am so proud of Kyle and Stefani and it is the coolest thing ever to have my own brother become a father. Him and Stefani are going to be great!! I love you already Marcela!

Summer pictures

A little bitty update: Summer is so much better than school!! I love being able to spend so much time with family and having fun!!! And it will be so much better once baby Marcela finally decides to come out!!

review of the past

So uhh..I decided to start up again..thanks to ken. (hi ken!) These following pics are of things that have happened lately. The car falling off the track is Adams car at his pine wood derby awhile ago..mom thought it was so funny. She would die of laughter every time she showed someone it..Adam still had fun though. The one of Abby shows her sick skills. She is a monkey woman. She has climbed those things so many times..she is great at the monkey bars too...better than me cus those things hurt your hands! The basketball is from church ball...it was way fun this year..it was mainly just people that are semi good at basketball coming to have a good time. it was a blast. and the last two are from prom...my favorite dress of all time pretty much. and prom was fun..so schwinnnng! =] but im going to go to bed now...i just got done taking a psychology test online for CBC..boring! Child psych last year was one million trillion times better. choa.

Momma

I heard my momma swear...like 5 times in a row!!
Never thought i would hear it..pretty funny.

Its all good!

I love life!!

Even though sometimes I get really stressed out with school and may seem like I don't like school, I do like learning, and much to my dismay, I do like school. It challenges me and keeps me growing instead of just sitting still. (Yes Kareen..you can say I told you so) Even my Government class..which is sometimes really hard to understand..I like because it is important stuff! Even math has gotten better....maybe because for the first time I am in a class that is at my level..and I do my homework..but whatev. And even though I totally sucked it up on my anatomy final..and only got a 3.66 for my SHS GPA (which I really hope won't kill my chances for BYU) I still like learning about the "amazing human body!" Anyways..time to jet.

New Year

Last year was great....so far this year has been great....Life is just great. The only thing not great is that school starts tomorrow..and that totally blows...mosquito eaters. ha. But this year..I will be done with my junior year, enjoy an awesome summer..maybe get a job..enjoy a track season..enjoy my last xc season..speak in stake conference..watch my sister in law have a baby (girl??)..redo my room..finish my first year at CBC..turn 18..finish Personal Progress, go to EFY for the last time....and who knows..maybe play a grouling game of chess or something.ha (name that movie anyone?..even though pretty sure kareen is the only one who reads this little shin dig) Anyways..happy new years. im off to go to homework.
