Hey sorry for not blogging! I kept telling you that I will be blogging about Fresno soon, but I guess that wasn't true! I've been busy for the end of school! My teacher made us make a book (literally) from each person. Our whole class had to read the same book and then we had to write certain papers for a page of the book. We have the same exact type of papers in each of our books, but we just have different writing. It's a way to show how much we've learned. To be honest, I really haven't learned a lot.
In the month of June, I get to take soccer off! You can still go to optional practices in Escondido though. I go to every single optional practice because I'm trying to be as good as everybody else! We have some amazing players on our team! It's crazy how much they are dedicated to soccer, and I am trying to be too. I was playing arena and i got pushed against the wall and I fell on the ground. I have to tell you before you die of laughter that it was on turf. Right under turf is concrete. Who's laughin now??? haha I'm just kidding. It is pretty funny.
I'm really excited for summer! I want to go to the movies, to the wave, the beach, knotts berry farm, knotts soak city, wild rivers, and etc! I am just so excited! Okay well I'm gonna go now because I have to go to church and tell beth happy birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETH YOU THIRTEEN YEAR OLD!!

I went to Louisiana!!
Hey! First of all, I did go to Louisiana, but just last weekend, I went to Fresno. I don't think we have picture though.. I'll check. I don't have pictures right now, but I'm sure I will...
Okay I just recently went to Louisiana to see Kylie (my sister) play softball at her college. I've gone so many places to watch her play! Like you have recently read about, we went to San Jose. Then we went to Louisiana and then we went to Fresno with my best friend, Beth! I'll tell you about that later as soon as I get pictures! :/
We had so much fun! It was extremely hot and we were sweating at all times, but it was rainy! That's Louisiana for you! Well, I still like it there! The smell is amazing! You know how you have the smell of beach air in California? Salt flies all around your nose? It is definitely refreshing, but there's a different type of refreshing in Louisiana! Everything is so clean! What I mean by that is there's way less pollution there! I think it smells different because you can always smell the amazing smell of wet as fault after there's a rain shower! Even people in California know what that smells like, but it's totally different in Louisiana! The scenery ties it all together! Check this out!
That, is downtown Ruston! The whole city is practically like that! It's amazing! Have you ever seen anything like that in Vista?? I don't think you have with all of those trees and wonderful blue skies! You had to be there! The wind was blowing in your face, just the best eeling in the world! People were driving by us honking and waving at us! Everybody was just so nice! That is Louisiana! There's a bar in Louisiana and a country singer wrote a song about it! It's amazing!
This is probably my favorite picture! You haven't seen Ruston until you've seen its forests and trains The trains go on for miles! If you get stopped in your car from one, I'm sorry. Haha actually... it's not that bad. It may take a couple minutes for it to pass, but it is just beautiful! It goes through many states! You just wonder what different types of things it carries!Back to the song... The song, Neon Moon by Brooks and Dunn is the song i was talking about! I love it! There's the lyrics in it! Read them and I hope you like the song! I sure do! The bar is across from the railroad tracks. That's how you can tell what bar he's talked about! Thanks for reading my blog and I hope to get a post up about Fresno soon! Thanks! Bye!!

Sorry I haven't Written in a while...
Hey sorry I haven't written in a while. I was at San Jose watching my sister play softball. She has been going to Louisiana Tech College in, well, you guess where it is. :) Whenever she comes over to the west half of the US, we usually try to be there and see her!
By the way, that picture I took is of my sister playing in San Jose! She's so good it's almost amazing! You can tell she will hit it can't you? Well she did! She got a double. She got all the way to third, but she sort of stole that base. But still, that was an awesome at bat and she just kept on hitting it! Even if she struck out, I thought she was really good because she would strive for any ball. Sometimes it's hard to hit the ball with the umpire's funky strike zone! ;)
Kylie was really good at fielding too. She was always down and ready for anything that would unexpectedly come her way. Went the ball was hit ti her, she would throw it as fast and accurately as she could to the right person to get them out! The position she was playing, second base, was really hard on her knee, but she didn't complain! She just worked and worked until she was able to go off the field!
She rolled her ankle, but she never complained. She got taken off the field and she actually wanted to keep playing! Yeah, that's my sister; strong, independent, reliable, and sometimes random.
I love her for that! Love ya KY!

God Blesses Us with things we take for granted
Today, we had a speaker talk to our school. She told us how careful we have to be with our bodies in cars, bicycle, and etc. You never know when there will be an accident in a car. She told us not to call them accidents because, would a drunk driver say to a family who he killed their daughter, "It was an accident. I'm sorry." 
No. He had the choice to get drunk or not, a choice to go to that friend's home, a choice to go to that party. He had a choice to choose those type of friends. Is that an accident? Nope, not at any time is it an accident. The lady that talked to us told us that she was paralyzed from the waist down. She broke her vertebra in a car accident because she didn't have her seat belt on. That also caused her little sister to get killed from head trauma right next to her. The girl went to the hospital, being paralyzed all around. The only way to communicate was blinking; one blink for yes, two blinks for no. This showed me how fortunate we are to have our legs move, our eyes blinking, our fingers fiddling.
God gives us all of the fantastic abilities and we take them for granted. Have you ever seen anybody in a wheelchair? They can't go to the bathroom by themselves, they can't walk. Walking is such a great ability. I lets us run and kick and play too! we need to thank God for that! He gives us the ability to take pictures, to smile.
That one move of a finger to press that little button on a camera, some people can't do that. Some people have breathing disabilities. Some people won't live as long as us. Us as Christians need to not only help people without the abilities that we have, but thank and praise God for what he does for us.
God is AMAZING with what he does and just we need to rejoice that and use his abilities. He gave you your own special ability; NOBODY else has that and you need to show God through that ability. Please remember that. So... ya I guess what I'm trying toi say is we're SO fortunate with what we have and we cannot take that granted. Embrace it!!
