Feburary-April are the craziest months for Senior boys. Its a time where they become Elders. I love it, last year all the bros got their mission calls, I was only able to make it to Ry, Ez and Josh's openings but I was at everyone of the bro's farewells. They changed my life. I can't even tell you, at Jake's farewell talk he was talking to just me, I swear he was, I don't understand why everyone else was there because it was for me. I still remember it vividly! I honestly am in tears thinking about all the bros, but they are definitely happy tears. They were my older brothers, but now its our year, the class of 2014 is ready for anything . The boys are putting in their papers and getting their calls like crazy, a few really great guys have already gotten theirs: ^^ Tyler Teerlink (Mexico City South, Mexico) ^^ Max Johnson- Taipei, Taiwan   ^^Mack Richards- Puebla North, Mexico ^^Wid-Madagascar Bridger-Taiwan Justin AND Matt- Alpine, Germany Toni...

Honestly this year has been life changing for me, EFY, life guarding, switching schools and YMAD. Through all of those things I have met some amazing people that have helped me and became role models for me, and I just wanted to let them all know that I appreciate them so much, and love them so much. I owe them a ton for how much they have helped me grow! Paige Wagner- Some of you may know her as a band member in The National Parks as seen ( here, here and  here ). She was my EFY counselor this summer and shared so many experiences with me, I was supposed to go with a friend but then that didn't work out and I went all alone, but I wasn't alone for long because Paige scooped me up and was the best counselor I could have asked for. Shes the cutest girl and is an amazing violinist, I am going to her senior night performance on Friday hopefully. Morgan Judd and I got to go to one of her performances at Velour and when she saw us in the crowd she got the biggest smile. Afterwar...

so today Danelle Alex and I went dress shopping.. it was terrible, the dresses weren't they were gorgeous.. just a thousand dollars, its insane, like really 600 for a dress, no thank you. So we went to Candlelight, and Alex and I got married, its super cute (check out her snap story) and there wasn't anything, so we went to gateway, where it was insanely gorgeous, like the weather oh my gosh i was dying. after finding nothing there either we headed over to city creek and we found danelle a dress, holy gorgeous, she's perfect its not even fair, but then we walked around for a little and nothing for me. boo. whatever so we walked around a little longer then decided to head home. BUT Alex had to take us to the melting pot. DELICOUS. it was heaven, white chocolate caramelized with bananas, fruit, oreo covered marshmallows, it was so amazing i can't even tell you. If you want to win my heart, take me there! anyways on the way home we sang our freaking hearts out. and l...

last night was a blast! Honestly I had so much fun! Thanks to my CC friends who didn't even freaking invite me over to hang out that's cool.. Instead I hung out with the cutest girls ever and I loved every second, i'm so glad it worked out the way it did! How it went down: Ruby, Sophie and I met, then we went over to Skyline, found out they were being crazy strict on I.D.s so Ruby called a friend who had a Skyline ID and he came to try and get us in, then when that didn't work we left, then Cookie called us and said she was back from Soldier Hollow. So we went and picked her up, but cookie was out of gas, so we stopped by the gas station, man cookie was a hot mess let me just tell you that! It was hilarious, she pulled up on the wrong side of the pump twice. Then we wanted to go hang out with Tanner, we got over there and were following them to Lover Lane but then we realized we were close to Blake's house, so we went to go answer him. I can't really say mu...

Today I couldn't think about anything to blog about except my cute SOFTBALL GIRLS WINNING THEIR FIRST GAME EVER 13-1 with TWO GRANDSLAMS (congrats Staci) I honestly don't have much else to say.. Tomorrow is going to be an interesting day though, so stay tuned! :) if you wanna check out what i posted on my YMAD blog feel free to check it out (click here) xoxo Jordie

Its Jake Van Skyhawks birthday everyone! Well it was yesterday when I started this post. This is Jake pictured below just in case you wanted to see him. We don't have a picture together which is kinda sad but we will get one when he gets me ice cream for losing our races on Sunday. But yesterday was a crazy day. It was late start cause the ACT which would have been nice if my mom didn't make me take my brothers to school. I had plans to go to breakfast with blake for free pancakes.  But my moms plans changed and I couldnt go anymore. So I dropped my mom of at school and I went to pretzel time at South town mall. Best way to start the day, I was late to school... but I'm a senior and aide for posey so it doesn't even matter. After school I nannied until 7:30 then I went to get pancakes with blake for real, gray legs was there to and he's hilarious. But they put sugar in my water and it was actually greasy legs I'm pretty sure. But it was switched way to ma...

It was a long weekend this week and it was much needed,  I swear I always want to have plans on our day off but end up laying in bed all day,  honestly I am perfectly fine with that. But I was sad that Ash Lee had softball all day. On Friday night I called Ash Edwards up and we went over to Parkers to hang out with him and Jake,  suprise suprise they were playing brawl. After a few games of that we went to Matts house and Brett amd Ben showed up they had a quick jam sesh and lets just say I hate people that are so talented like may and Parker,  and even Jake cause he picked up the drum beat so fast. But may was done jamming and they played brawl. This time ash joined them amd it was pretty funny.  After a few rounds of that and Matt having a melt down we went over to Alisons house,  she is the cutest,  Shayla was over there too and jeez I want all of her clothes!! They were hilarious, straight up hilarious. We had a mock American Idol and dancing with ...
