Every year for the past I don't know how long we have been going to Disney Land. One year we decided to go to Disney World and Uncle Scott decided to come with us. To bad Kristina couldn't have came with us. I know we are Disney freaks. I love going and spending time with my family and always have a good time. Disney World was fun but there Magic Kingdom sucks compared to Disney Land. The shows they put on where amazing. Can't wait to go back.

Snowboarding


Me up at Sundance.


Samantha Skiing.
For the last few years I have been getting season passes to Sundance and go snowboarding. I love to be outdoors and love the rush that you get. Last year I didn't get a pass because I started working and couldn't go. The year befor I took my cousin Samantha with me and spent the day on the slops. She is scary to go with because she likes going fast like me but she goes straight down the mountain and doesn't know how to control her speed so if you are in the way I feel bad for you. I have no clue how she is still alive and hasn't killed anyone else yet. It was so much fun taking her and need to go again next time she comes to visit in wenter. I enjoy spending time with her. I also enjoy when her whole family goes with me. Amy gets scared a little but is good once she gets over that fear. I wish I had pictures of Scott. That kid isn't scared of anything. We went to the Canyons in park City and I was going on the rails and tables and stuff and he told his dad he wanted to do them also and he did. The kid was 4 or 5. Great way to spend time with the family.

Eagle Project.

Me cleaning up.
For my eagle project I built a pavilion for the disabled down in Provo. I joined with RAH because they have been wanting it for sometime. My aunt has worked with them before and helped me come up with the idea. My cousin Kate is Disabled so it was nice to be able to do this for her and others like her. From planning to it being completed took two years. We had lots of problems with people wanting to help out but backing out and then Provo city on top of it all. But now it is done. I still need to go see it. It is neat to bike the Provo trail and see it and say I did that. It is something that will be there for a long time and something I will be able to show to my kids. I am very proud to have done this project even though it was a huge task.

Deutschland Tour.
In 2006 I went to Germany and stayed with my cousin Sina for a month. I miss it so much and would live there if I had the chance. I went to school for two weeks and had fun making friends and thought it was funny how everyone thought it was neat to have an american in there class. We did a lot of things when I was there. I found it funny that Sina has never done a lot of what we did befor I came and thought oh my gosh what are we going to do for a month and then relized how much there is to do. I had so much fun and hope to go back soon. It was neat because I got to meet Pat. He is now like my big brother. I have never eaten so much ice cream befor in my life. I love the food so much. Maybe I will end up in Germany on my mission? Who knows.

In October Heidi's work would always go down to Moab for meetings. I loved going with her and staying at Red Cliffs Lodge. She would go to meetings and I would run off and so swimming, fishing, horse riding or whatever. One day they bring in someone to put on a show and it's always really good. I like to go down town and look in all the little shops. Sometimes we go to Archs and go hiking but I have started to go with the guys and go Mtn. Biking and love it. It's kinda scary sometimes because these guys are crazy and getting hurt doesn't bother them. You get the best view and pictures from up on the cliffs. I wish we still got to go.

EFY 2009. Be Thou an Example.

The Group


That was the theme for EFY this year. I love going and making new friends. I have found it a great way to grow in the church. Of course the best thing about going is all the girls and the dances are so much fun. As you can see are group had 8 guys and 16 girls. This year are group name was In The Service. For two days you go to 8 classes that are like going to seminary but they get the best teachers ever. My old seminary teacher Bro. Su'a was one of the teachers and loved going to his classes. I also was in the musical program and on thursday night after dinner you have the program and then a fireside. It is probably the most powerful part of EFY. I am so happy that I got to go. I am hoping next year I get to go again befor I go on my mission. It is the best week of my summer.

Biking the Provo Canyon

Today I went up Provo Canyon with my uncle David to bike the trail. I think the whole trail is 20 miles but we back tracked and then biked home. We went about 35 to 40 miles and took about 2 1/2 hours or so. It was raining but we never got really wet and it was nice because it wasn't very hot. David and I got home and decided to go to Five Guys and get something to eat and then went to see the movie UP in 3D and loved it. That is the 2nd time we have seen it and yesterday went to Iceage 3 and had a good time. If you haven't seen them you really need to go.

Lacrosse


Getting scored on by Riverton.



Trying to stop the shot.


Trying not to die by a big kid.



playing some D.
Since 9th Grade I have been playing Lacrosse for Mountain View. I started playing in 8th grade for Orem jr. That was a sad year. We lost every game that year and only got one goal all season. I loved playing for MVHS a lot more. My freshman year we had a good team but the coach was new and we had to figure out what we where doing and learn his style of play. We didn't make the playoffs but had a great year and a lot of fun. As a sophomore we had a better year then the year befor. We got stuck in the first round of playoffs playing West Jordan who just beat us really bad a week befor. Somehow we pulled togather as a team and went to Win in overtime I think 12-11. In the Quaterfinals we lost to Woodcross in a close game. That was sad because it was the same day as prom.

Football


Home Coming. Lighting of the MV!


MVHS vs. Timpview



MVHS vs. Timpview again.


After playing Timpview.



After the Timpview game again.



Last school year I played football for Mountain View High School. I was a tight end and safty. It is a lot of hard work and tons of yelling but a blast. I really learned a lot from playing and kinda sad to not be playing again this year. We had a very successful year. We lost all are pre-season games and ended the season as the number two team in are reagion behind Timpview. WE went 0 for 3 in pre-season, season play we went 5 for 7 and lost are first playoff game and where out of the playoffs. But still a great year for us.
