A Story From When I was LIttle and Other Stuff

Recently I have been interested in hearing stories about when I was little. One of my favorite stories that Mom told me was about when Ammon and I were little and we would hog the bed. She said that I would come get in her bed over and over again. Dad would carry me back to my own bed, but I would always come back. She said that even though I was small, I would take up ALL the space. Somehow I could make my arms sprawl all over the queen sized bed so there was hardly any room left. When Ammon also tried to get into Mom and Dad's bed it was even worse. Sometimes Dad would just give up on having room and he would go sleep on the couch for the rest of the night.

Right now I live in Craig, Alaska on Prince of Wales Island. All of my cousins are in Utah and all of my grandparents are also in Utah. I miss them and am going to visit them in just a few weeks for my baptism. I am inviting all of my cousins, grandmas and grandpas and maybe some of my uncles and one or two aunts. I already have one aunt picked out - Aunt Rebecca. And an uncle - Uncle Dan. Actually, my mom just told me that ALL of my aunts and uncles are going to be invited to my baptism.

In Alaska I take pictures of the sunset and sunrise. I also have a rock collection and find sticks. We went to a park and played with sticks and we also took Laurie on the merry-go-round that you have to push.We also pushed mom and she got dizzy and said, "How do you guys do it this fast?!" We said, "It is slow from the outside but fast from the inside."

Why do you want to get baptized?

I want to get baptized so that I can make my first covenant. Wait, I already have a covenant by going to church. So I'll get baptized to make my second covenant.

Because I really want to have the experience of getting dunked under water. And I asked my dad just so that my feet don't come up, I asked my dad to stand on my feet.

What do you want to do to celebrate your birthday?

I asked my mom to get me a camera. She said she's going to get me a camera but constantly every once in a while she asked, "Are you sure you want a camera more than anything else?" and I say yes. Because I wanted other things too. I wanted Skylanders and poke'mon cards and I also wanted beyblades. But I am definitely sure.

I want a camera because I like getting beautiful pictures of the sunset and I'm also going to get pictures for Mom if she asks me to.

What is your favorite thing about Craig, Alaska?

My favorite thing is that we live in the forest where we can collect lots of sticks.

I've been reading knock knock jokes and this is one of them:

Church History Museum Visit

My mom and I made this collage for a scout requirement. My mom accidentally put the wrong year on the picture. These pictures are actually from our trip to Utah last December. It was 2015. For scouts I need to write about how this experience helped me feel reverent or helped me better understand my duty to God. It helped me feel reverent because it has historical and religious stuff and only historical and religious stuff. And modern day religious stuff. One example was a replica of the golden plates. We got to lift it to see how heavy they were. They said it was 50 pounds and it was REALLY heavy! Also, I got to see a video that had my Grandma Lynn in it. It was about the early members of the church who were trying to decide who the next prophet should be after Joseph Smith died. Several people had a really strong spiritual experience when Brigham Young began to talk to them and the Holy Ghost helped them know that Brigham Young should be their next prophet. We also went ...

First Week of Home School

On Monday we started home school, On Wednesday at home school I finished a really good book called The Best in the West . It is very interesting. There is an almost eight foot bear in the book! The other book I have read this week is The Tale of Peter Rabbit . It is on my Battle of the Books list. My favorite topic this week has been math. One of the things I learned in math is the hyphen. You don't use a hyphen in numbers one-twenty or in numbers ending in zero. (Because those are whole numbers.) But you do use a hyphen in numbers like twenty-one. I have finished lesson 51. I did all of those lessons plus several quizzes. We went on a walk and saw salmon. They are getting ready to lay eggs and die. They were flopping a lot and fighting over who gets to be in the exact spot where they were born. I got to shoot a BB gun for science. We learned about inertia. We were doing science by shooting the BB gun at a can to see...
