I Love California
I have been lazy so I really need to post about our california trip! We went to Disneyland for Ashley's birthday and it was so fun!! and hot! note to self:never wear jeans there again! I was dying! I love Disneyland it never changes! My favorite rides were Splash Mountain and Space Mountain! We also got Dole Pineapple whip which was SO GOOD! During the fireworks we decided to go on this spaceship ride in tomorrowland that flys up really high and spins in a circle. We got on right during the finale so it was really cool to see all the fireworks from up high! The last two days we went to the beach, boogie boarded, ate super good hamburgers from Jack's, and watched the US Open! It was fun to see people you just see in pictures like coco ho! We also went to Duke's twice and got the amazing Hula Pie! My mom planned the whole thing with tons of really fun stuff. We also got to see my Uncle Don and Aunt Kathy and eat dinner at their house which was cool! Besides almost getting raped at 11pm walking in dark alleyways it was a trip to remember!

Post-Graduate
So I am going to try to make this blog a bit more personal, I usually write on this and then in a journal because it is hard for me to really say what I feel on something that other people read haha but writing in my journal makes my hand tired. So here goes:
I wasn't really that excited to graduate high school more nervous of what would come after it. Its nice not having to go back to school, but I miss waiting to get out of the senior parking lot in the hot sun and calling Melissa and talking to her everyday during her break at work while I waited. I miss laughing so hard my stomach hurt at lunch with Kendra, Jake, and Sam Junior year. I miss being in dance with Kristen and Kaitlin, I miss long rehearsals, I miss taking funny pictures in ballet with Cara and Lainie, During track I miss how fun our girls team was. We would jump in someone's pool and go to play basketball instead of doing the run when the coach was gone. Someone would always tell on us and we would get punished for it the next day. I remember feeling like I was gonna die, but doing it again a few weeks later. I miss waiting in the junior parking lot because it was freezing and listening to funny talk shows with jake, I miss sister roses seminary class and me and kendra always making jokes.
After Graduation its like everywhere that I thought was familiar became unfamiliar and new people came and took my place. Places where I used to belong, I didn't belong anymore. I feel more unsecure now than I did in high school and I am very scared to move away for the first time to a place where I do not know anyone and live with people that I have never met. At times I get really excited and can't wait and then other times I want to savor the last moments I have in my house, with my family. I feel like I am going to miss out on everything, most importantly Rhett's baptism. Ally's Birthday, Rhett's Birthday, Thanksgiving. I am sad that I am not going to really continue dance because all the college offers is a Ballet II, but at least it has that! and the teacher said that I could take it on pointe! When I think about not dancing it makes me want to cry! On a different note. I am having fun picking out plates, bowls, and other fun things for my apartment! I know I will make really good friends and have lots of fun! I feel like BYU-Idaho is where I am suppost to be and that everything will work out!

Andersen Family Reunion
The Andersen Reunion was lots of fun, it was held in St. George. I think my favorite part was hiking the Narrows. We left at about 10am, it was a really cool hike we were hiking through a stream most of the time and there were ladders you had to climb up with the waterfall spilling over it! We finished at about 1pm and went to cafe rio! yum! perfect ending to the day! My and ash also spotted jon from jon &kate plus 8, but didn't bother going up to him or taking a picture because he is a jerk haha! The rest of the reunion we hung out by the pool and went out to eat, and talked with Grandpa. It was really fun catching up with everyone!
Flake Family Reunion
The Flake Family reunion was lots of fun! Complete with the usual rodeo, luncheon, parade, ice cream at the flake store, booths at the park, subway, I even consented to go to the dance by persuasion by my cousins(you guys know how much I love dances haha not) Overall it was a fun reunion Alisha's dog had super cute puppies and they also had an evil barn owl pet haha! Keatons little pony was adorable! and we also got to play with Jon and Dawniel's baby chicks and try to persuade Keaton not eat the cute little things when they get older! It was so fun to hang out with all my cousins and to catch up!
