February 1997- December 1998

February 23, 1997 Sunday (mom's writing)

I  love my little baby sister Abigail. I love my baby brother Nate. I want to be married in the temple someday-that makes me feel good about myself. At school I'm learning about sedimentary rocks. At church I've been learning about Joseph Smith and it makes me happy that he made it possible for me to have the scriptures. I love my grandma and grandpas. My grandma Fran's brother John has been in the hospital and we pray for him. His son Johnny was killed in the accident.

I went to Joseph and The amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Donny Osmond was Joseph in the play. My dad is 36. He was born in 1961. I loved the play. Then they gave Joseph his coat of many colors. I love my brother and sisters. I love my mom and dad. On Friday I had a sleepover night. I like to rollerblade.

My dad gave me a blessing today. In the blessing Dad told me that if I have faith I can do math easier. I love my mom and dad. I love my sisters. I love my brother. My mom loves me and Nate the same. Love one another is my favorite song.

I like Paulie the movie. My best friends ever in 4th grade are: Lauren Wade, Lyndsi Bromley and Leisel Wright and Kassandra. I went to the play much ado about nothing with my dad. I liked it a lot. There are two stories going on at the same time. I went to the play cats with my aunt and uncle. I like the play cats alot. It was a love story going on in much ado about nothing.

Today was stake Conference. We sang in choir. The songs we sung were: we are as the army of Helaman, search, ponder and pray, and I know the scriptures are true.

December 25-26, 1998

Today i moved to the City of Highland from American Fork. We now live in a new home. We moved in after Christmas (We brought the beds over on Christmas). Because we were wanting the house to be finished being built we feed the workers doughnuts, milk and Juice so that they would finish the house faster. I really like the new house because I have my own bedroom. Nate & Abby have to share because the basement isn't finished. We have to go to a new school Legacy instead of Shelley. I have made a new friend name Corrine Sanderson. She is really nice to me.
