It was good. Started out on Wednesday we went and got the jugs, on Thursday we got the apples. Friday was slow as usual. A lot of neighbors came over. It was a good day though. Saturday, we started around 10. The day went by fast, not a lot of family came, but a few friends that I haven't seen in a long time came. So that was good. All in all it was a good weekend, but I'm exhausted.

It was a good day. Started off a little cold and i was really disappointed, but it turned out awesome. There's not much better then a good day on the lake. We were on the tube for a long time, and Kimberly made the kneeboard look so easy. She looked like she'd been doing it for years. Not to mention wake boarding she made that look easy too. We had a good day and we're both exhausted. <div><br></div><div>(I just realized this didn't post.

He was the best grandpa anyone could ever ask for. So amazingly kind to EVERYONE and would talk to anyone. It didn't matter where he was, the store, the doctors, he knew everyone and they all knew him. He is the kindest person I've ever known I'm so glad he's my grandpa. I will miss him so much. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I absolutely loved going to St. George to visit my grandma and grandpa. We always got there late but it didn't matter how late it was my grandpa always stayed up and waited for us. Not only did he stay up waiting but he would stay up and talk to us for an hour or so after we got there. Such a simple thing but I loved it. Every time we went to St. George I felt the most amazing feeling of peace. It didn't matter how stressed I was or how sad I was if we were in St. George all those feelings just disappeared for awhile. Every time we were there he would say: well i'll get up and make breakfast in the morning. Sure enough he was up making us breakfast. Hot cakes or egg Mcmuffins (I'm not sure if that has anything to do with McDonalds or if he just liked the name, or both.) one time I remember, my grandpa had gotten up early and gone to the temple, everyone had eaten, but I waited for my grandpa to make me an egg Mcmuffin. I waited till about noon but that was the best breakfast sandwich I'd ever had. It's nothing amazing but it was special because he always made them for us.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"> I will never forget the way he took your hand and looked at you and usually he'd say something like, it's so good to see you. Or come visit us again soon. It made me cry every time. So sweet. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">These last couple of weeks have been really rough, but so sweet, being able to spend time with him. About a week ago we went to visit him and I knelt down by his bed and he took my hand we had a short conversation, then he fell asleep. His grip was so firm as it always was every time he took your hand. I never wanted to let go. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">He always made sure his grand kids knew he loved them and he made it so clear in the sweetest ways. I can't even imagine what my life would be without him. I love him so much. I will miss him. It's so hard accepting he's no longer physically here, it breaks my heart but he will always be with me in my heart and I know he's happy now. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I love you grandpa </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div>Alexi Wilcoxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06981184317026512657noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326834047084128893.post-49740895781029162382013-08-07T20:19:00.001-07:002013-08-07T20:19:55.659-07:00So much going on.....Well, it's been so long since I've blogged. I thought I should start blogging again... <div><br></div><div>A lot has happened lately. I'm not really sure where to start.

We didn't do much because I was so exhausted. </div><div><br></div><div>My grandpa has been sick, then fell and broke his hip a few weeks ago.

Then we decided to go to Virginia since we weren't too far. Well i got sick of it quicker then everyone else, but after a few days we were all sick of driving. Our destination of Virginia was worth it. i didn't really care for the other stops along the way. We got there Sunday night, earlier then we thought. I laid on the couch that night, i couldn't believe we were actually there. Waking up that morning hearing Ellie was just about the best thing ever.We weren't there for very long, for how much driving we did we should have stayed for 2 weeks. We played games and played with the babies. it was good but not even close to long enough.Alexi Wilcoxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06981184317026512657noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326834047084128893.post-20748917641791969942012-12-02T19:54:00.000-08:002012-12-02T19:54:28.545-08:00Allison Today i got to see Allison for the first time in five months. It was an awesome surprise, i knew she'd probably come home on weekends soon but i wasn't expecting it and when i saw her i instantly felt this happiness unlike anything iv'e felt in a very long time. Just hugging her was the best thing ever. i was so happy i was just about speachless. We got to visit awhile and it seems like she's doing well. I always wonder how she's doing, i have been thinking about her this weekend and it was amazing to go to church and see her. When this whole thing happened i didn't know what to think and i was worrying about her almost constantly, i'd think things like what if she changes dramatically? or, i wonder if she misses me, because i missed her so much. As time went on i was still thinking about her a lot and if i wasn't careful i'd think too much and end up crying. I just kept telling myself she's where she needs to be but that was so hard to accept. Months passed and a few weeks ago i talked to my friend and she said she went to visit Allison, which i had been meaning to do. She told me she was doing well, that is when i found out she'd be able to come home on weekends soon. After i heard that i thought about her almost constantly again for weeks. This weekend iv'e been thinking about her, and then it was amazing to see her. She is still crazy and just the Allison i know no more worrying. i know she's doing well and that's all i want. One of these weekends that she's home she's coming over, we've already decided that. This just gives me something to look forward to and be happy.

Today we were going to go boating but it was cloudy so we went riding instead. I had planned to take Aya boating all week, when it was cloudy i was really sad. It turned out great anyways. It started by just showing Aya the trails after that she got off and i went by myself, as fast as i could of course. when i got back Aya took a turn then we switched off until i got on and crashed. I love the loose dirt. I always drift and slide through it. i did it once and it turned out awesome! HUGE dust cloud! When i got back up to the car Aya wanted to go together again, so i had to slow down but i still scared her a little. I found it funny when she screamed and she'd say "that's so fun!", well we got back to the car and she got off i took off as fast as i could and as i was coming back i hit my favorite patch of dirt and i lost control and flipped. It happened so fast i remember hitting the ground and thinking i have to get up. I got right back up, luckily the 4-wheeler didn't land on me and i started walking back to the car. I took off my helmet and looked down at myself i was completely covered in dust. When my dad and Aya got to me i said " i really didn't mean to.." and they got out of the car and we laughed about it for a few minutes i said "well now that iv'e done that i'll be able to be a little safer" then flipped it back over when Aya noticed some plastic was cracked she said, "i'm not sure if that was there before" then as we were looking we found more new cracks. I got in the car and Aya rode for a little bit longer then we left. It was a good day but i'm so sore i'd say it was worth it for the experience and the story but i hope it never happens again. As Aya would say "only you Alexi, only you" Yes only i would take a friend riding and end up flipping. i'm just glad it wasn't her that got hurt, and i don't think she would've enjoyed it as much as i did.

We stayed in touch, but got in a few fights, went through some rough times. The move definitely hurt our friendship but through it all we are still great friends. Well now she's going to Byu. She came and visited me today. It was really good to see her and get to talk for awhile! We were laughing about some of the stuff we did 4 years ago, what were we thinking?? We admitted we'd probably still do some of that stuff....or at least i would and i'm sure Aya would too. i'm looking forward to having her close again. We have already planned to go boating soon!

We went back to Virginia last week. it was great! We got up early, early Saturday morning like, 3:45 and got in the car to catch a 6:00 flight. that was rough. When we got there, i was exhausted! Ellie was so happy to see us.We went to some museums the next couple of days. That was a busy few days for the little ones. Then a concert on Tuesday night, and another on Wednesday. Then Ellie came on our beach adventure with us. Josh convinced Jess to let her come and we had so much fun. It was a full week for Ellie, but i think she enjoyed it. We didn't make it too far before the car overheated. Luckily we got to a car shop. They were very nice there, we spent most the day there and they did everything they could to get us back on the road. But they couldn't get a part so they got us a rental car and we drove on. Got some lunch, Went to Chesapeake bay and then spent the night in a hotel waiting for the car to be fixed. We woke up the next morning and went to the Cracker Barrel for breakfast. Then headed back to the car shop, got the car and started the journey home. We stopped at a few little shops on the way, and finally made it home around 3:30 Even though we had car troubles i'd say it was a good two days. Ellie didn't get much of a nap on either day so she was exhausted, but still very pleasant for how tired she was. After i rested for an hour or so i convinced my dad we should go to the apple store. So we did, that's always fun. Then we picked up food from Cafe Sano. On Saturday Jess got sick so she was at the hospital for awhile so we didn't really do anything, it was a nice relaxing day after a long week. Sunday morning came too fast, and we were packing up to leave. Saying goodbye is never easy. But all in all it was a great week.

I just forgot about it. Anyways this summer has had it's ups and downs. i went to Virginia in June, and we are going again in a few weeks. it'll be good to see Ellie again. i haven't really done anything else, we've been boating a few times and we're going again for my birthday it should be fun. This weekend has been rough, i found out one of my best friends is on 24hr suicide watch. Today i was told she'll be there for 10 months to a year. i'm really sad she is really the only friend i hang out with and i never realized she was in so much pain. i will really miss her but i'm glad shes getting the help she needs, it'll be a rough time for me. i already really miss her and it's hard to grasp the thought that someone just down the street from me is now so far away.<br />
i will miss you Allison. <br />

Today was crazy, we got up early and went riding, it was rainy and windy after not too long. Erin, Nic, Norah and the dogs came out to the field with us. When it got really cold we went to Erin's for a bit, then we got in the car, drove home got Colman and drove to Salt Lake. We saw the new sushi documentary, then went and had sushi. it was delicious, roll after roll. Colman ordered a Russian Roulette roll and there was one that was a 6.5 and the rest were 4 on the hot scale and i got the 6.5! Everyone was glad i got it, i kept saying how i wanted something really hot and i got it. i still think i could handle a 7 but we will see next time we go to eat there. it was a good day.Alexi Wilcoxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06981184317026512657noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326834047084128893.post-27359006584317712022012-04-25T16:09:00.002-07:002012-04-25T16:09:55.376-07:00Segways<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

On Monday after school we went to look at segways. My dad has been saying we would for 2 weeks now and i didn't really believe him. Well we did, and i guess they were some people my dad knew. When they first started talking i was scared to ride one but it wasn't too bad i really liked it and almost ran over my dad and the guy that was helping me. It wasn't that big of an area so i couldn't really help it. Or could i? Anyways it was fun and i think we are getting a segway. They are going to let us bring one home for a weekend and i can ride it a little more. I'm excited for that.Alexi Wilcoxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06981184317026512657noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326834047084128893.post-24000304560790572932012-04-21T08:25:00.001-07:002012-04-21T08:25:21.171-07:00Little Sahara<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Last week on Wednesday we went to the Little Sahara sand dunes. It was so fun! The middle of the week is the perfect time to go I've been wanting to go back. We finally got to use the sand paddles. Although it took forever to get there it was worth the long drive. I'm looking forward to going back. As sore as it makes me i love it! Now all we need is another 4 wheeler so i don't wonder off and get lost. Once again we forgot the helmet cam...... We made a few videos on the iphone. i'll post them to YouTube if you don't know my YouTube channel is bwac4 go check it out i'll post some newer videos.Alexi Wilcoxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06981184317026512657noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326834047084128893.post-7408212720921279032012-04-08T13:05:00.001-07:002012-04-08T13:05:24.914-07:00Lot's of stuffEveryone knows i haven't blogged for a looong time. Well it's been busy and exhausting and it's finally spring break. I went to St George about a month ago, with Norah and Erin. Colman was Still in Europe and we decided to all cram in the car and go visit Grandma. st George is one of my favorite places ever. i'm sure after my grandparents are gone it won't be the same, but for now it is my favorite place to be. The weekend after that Colman was still gone, My dad had to work in
bluff so we got in the car on thurday and drove down to bluff. That was
exciting.....ok not really i spent the day in the hotel on the internet.
Great day if you ask me
The next weekend i got to miss school again
and go to the Saltflats, it was kinda cold but once i got riding i had
so much fun. Iv'e been sick this weekend, but on Friday, Erin, Nic and
Norah came for a little easter egg hunt and to paint eggs. Norah had
sooo much fun she is adorable!<br />

I
haven't blogged in a long long time, so here is an update. We had our annual
apple party two weeks before thanksgiving. Then we spent Thanksgiving in North
Carolina. Two weeks in North Carolina, It was great! It was a lot warmer then
we expected it to be this time of year. We flew into Norfolk Virginia and spent
a day in Virginia before we picked up Erin and Nic. We went to Chincoteague
island, to see the ponies of Chincoteague. That night we picked up Erin, Nic
and and spent another night in Virginia. We woke up early the next
morning, well.... it seemed early to me because i was up all night. Then we got
in the car for a long day, drove to Buxton where we met Josh and Jess. We
had a really good dinner that night. When we got back to the hotel we just talked
and caught up, it's been awhile since we've all been together. Well, the next
day we woke up even earlier...squished in the car and drove to North Carolina.
Erin and Nic had it pretty good, But Colman and I had to sit in the back seat
with Norah. It wasn't the most comfortable ride, two teenagers and a car
seat....if you can imagine. We only stopped a few times that day, so when we
finally got to the ferry all three of us in the back seat were dying to get
out. It's about a 30 minute ferry ride from Hatteras to The Outer Banks. Then
another 30 minutes from the ferry to the house we were staying at. FINALLY we
were there! If you've ever rented a house on vacation you know how exciting it
is to go inside and look around for an hour getting used to the place. If you
haven't ever rented a house, a hotel is just about the same, the only
difference is the time you spend exploring the place, because it's only one
room. </div>

Josh's
best friend Danny and his family also came and spend the week with us. We got
there on Sunday, and that night we had Thai food and spent the rest of the
night relaxing. On Monday we went to the beach, The water was kind of cold, but
every time i go to the beach i HAVE to walk in the water. Collecting shells and
walking in the water, possibly the best thing ever. It was also Ellie's first
time to the beach so Josh was really excited. Norah was being stubborn and
didn't decide to have fun until we were about to leave. We got home and
everyone said "Alexi you can't shower until everyone else has
showered" because they all know better then to let me shower first. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .1pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: .1pt;">
<br /></div>
On Tuesday we went fishing, Josh and Nic were really excited, Colman didn't
get up until Nic had to yell at him. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I took some Dramamine
and slept all day long. I woke up a few times then went right back to sleep. I
wasn't sure why I was sleeping so much then I realized i had taken the drowsy
formula. "Mild drowsiness may occur" then Nic gave me some Monster i
felt good after that and stayed awake for the rest of the trip. When we got
back I felt tired again, so i laid down on the couch Jess took one look at me
and laughed "are you ok Alexi?" I expected that... I said I was fine
then went upstairs to go back to sleep.<br />

On Wednesday we got a Turduken It was pretty dang delicious. Later in the
week we found a place where we got fresh shrimp and clams. I think that is when
me and jess got along the most, when we were eating shrimp. We are definitely
best of friends when there's a plate of shrimp and a bowl of melted butter in
front of us. well, Thursday was thanksgiving. Turduken one day, turkey the next
pretty great right? Pumpkin pie with ice cream, best thing ever! We bought our
pies so we didn't have to make them that was kind of sad. oh well.<br />
Well the next night we had more shrimp and clams. It was delicious, once
again Jess and i were the best of friends.....that is until she slapped me,
that's right she slapped me. She saw a mosquito on my face and slapped it. I
guess she can't be fast and gentle because she slapped me SO HARD! My ear
was bright red. She felt really bad, although it was funny. To this day I bet
she still feels bad.<br />
After that the rest of the trip went by so fast. We went to the beach one
more time, the next day we piled in the car and started driving back to Virginia.
We stayed in a really nice hotel right on the beach for two more nights. Even
though Josh and Jess only got to stay one night. Well, saying goodbye wasn’t
easy and it never will be. We said goodbye and Josh and Jess were on their way
home. That night seemed long. It ended and we all went to bed and woke up the
next morning and packed up into the car and drove to the airport <br />

<span> </span>One
day a racer was born, she just didn’t know until she was thirteen when she got
her first ATV. The riding began a year later the jumping started, she thought
she was pretty awesome. Well, awhile later her parents decided to sell her
ATV.<span> </span>A year later she got
surprised with a new ATV and had been talking about racing. <span> </span>Finally the racing begins.<span> </span>The
day she was surprised with the new ATV she couldn’t believe it. she woke up the
next morning and ran outside to get a closer look. It was a lot bigger then she
expected but all that mattered is that it went fast and it sure did. <span> </span>An Orange comflage 700cc Kawasaki </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span> </span>Indoor,
<span> </span>year-round race track. Engines
roaring, people yelling, ready for the race to begin. The gate drops and the
race is on. a long straight shot, coming up on the first jump they go flying
through the air. Up in the air it seems like forever.<span> </span>Through the whoops and around another corner leading to
another jump. they land, and race around a small turn then go as fast as they
possibly can down the long straight shot. One lap complete, two more to go.
Finally they come up on the finish line one by one. Taking their helmets off
they get off their ATV’s and wait for them to announce 1<sup>st</sup> 2<sup>nd</sup>
and 3<sup>rd</sup> place. A loud booming voice comes over the intercom and says
“now ladies and gentlemen we will announce the winners.” The crowd cheers. And
first place goes to number 35. <span> </span>Second place goes to number 12. Last but not least third
place goes to number 5.<span>
</span>Congratulations to all our other racers and better luck next time. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span> </span>After
all those years she finally got to race, and will continue racing for many
years or until she gets hurt. That’s the story of a girl who was born to be a
racer.</div>

(my mom's family) It was really fun i saw my cousins and aunt from Idaho. We get along really well and almost every time they come we always look at each other and say "sleepover? yeah!!" then we run to ask if we can. well it didn't happen this time oh well. Oh yeah and the GIANT CANDY CANE yes i brought it!!!! Everyone was so amazed and my cousin asked me if it was a real candy cane...he wasn't there when we bought it. So my cousin and i just laughed and said "YES of course" well yeah i got pictures of me and my cousin together with the GIANT CANDY CANE!!!! Did i mention the pictures were taken just hours before the GIANT CANDY CANE broke......?? well it's true it broke.... let's just say Colman had ti do with this TRAGIC accident Yes it was TRAGIC! I was SO sad!!! Later that night i told Kindra that we were going to get another one cuz she was so sad it broke too even tho she wasn't there when we bought it.....i haven't told Jaicee that it broke....<br />
<br />
A week later was the Wilcox family Christmas party. Also that weekend we went to Salt Lake my dad had been working late in Salt Lake every night late so on Saturday night we decided to go up to SLC and stay in a hotel so he didnt have to come home really late then go back really early the next day. He had been filming the Christmas concert and Sunday morning was Music And The Spoken Word. Saturday night we met Erin and Nic at Thanksgiving Point they wanted to take Norah to see the deer and they invited us. After that we made our way up to SLC. We got there about 8:00 and checked in the hotel and went and looked at the lights around Temple Square, then we went back to the hotel and my dad came about a half hour later. We watched a movie and got snacks and had a little party there in our hotel room. About 11 we all went to bed i think i didn't sleep till 12 and woke up almost every hour.... yeah i didn't sleep well.. I woke up the next morning at like 8:00 We were going to go to the Music And Spoken Word but we didn't know we had to get tickets (this year was the first year you had to have tickets) so we stayed in the comfy hotel room and watched it. Then i took a nap....an awful one might i add... i was so tired though! My dad finished working and we met him at Little America, if you don't know what that is it's a really fancy hotel (my brother used to work there a long time ago) and they have a Buffet every Sunday morning that anyone can go to. it's a great buffet! Really expensive though. After the amazing brunch we had it was 3 hours before the party was supposed to start, we decided just to go to my aunt's house when we got there they were still at church so we waited and soon they got home. Anyways the party was fun. My aunt made my favorite bean salad for me. I talked to my brother in law and my cousin wasn't there and she told me she could come but it ended up she couldn't. I really missed her! But, i still had a great time with all my other cousins and my uncles are the best! so it was fun! I know this is a long post so i will wrap it up, i just haven''t blogged for awhile lots has been going on so i wanted to write about it. <br />
For Christmas, i got: A PHONE!!!! FINALLY YAY!! Clothes, headphones, shoes, money and candy. It was great!!! Here are a few pics iv'e taken on my phone<br />

We are sooo crazy and as silly as can be when we are together! A week ago i believe...we went out to lunch with my grandma for her birthday! (on thanksgiving) Jaicee and i always talk about the weirdest things! A few weeks before i was telling her how i was sick and sounded like a hissing, dying cat! (i seriously did!) anyways we were talking about it all day, so at the lunch i brought it up and she just laughed sooo hard! Then she decided i look like a cat.....do i? hmm anyways we argued over that for awhile and then i finally gave in and said fine! i look like a cat! I don't even remember what we decided what animal she looks like..... a tiger? hmm yeah that probably was it... ANYWAYS we aren't even to the good part! After we ate my grandma had been wanting to go to a store she saw so we all went to this really cool store i don't even remember what it was called.... It was like a home decor store but it also had cool gadgets and cool stuff like that! GUESS WHAT WE FOUND!!!! A GIANT 2 POUND CANDY CANE!!!!!! We just laughed and laughed and LAUGHED! I kept saying "oh my gosh!!!! i'm going to get it!!!!!!" so after begging my mom and convincing her that i would pay for it...i got it!! it was $10 but i just had to have it! it was just so funny and ridiculous! you know when you se something so ridiculous at the store you just have to get it? well yeah that's how i felt with this giant candy cane! Jaicee and i just kept making jokes about it and how "it would take me 7 years to eat it" it just cracked me up so i had to get it! So i bought it and left....when i got in the car i was all excited to tell Jaicee so i texted her right away and said "jaicee !!!!!!!! i got that HUGE candy cane!" I got a text back "who is this?" i responded "Alexi" got a text back "i think you have the wrong number" i was like......ahhh "who is this?" and this mystery guy responded......"Jose" i got all nervous and checked the number and at first i thought it was just Jaicee playing a trick on me then i took a closer look at the number and it was WRONG! So i changed it and texted Jaicee and i said "jaicee! i got that HUGE candy cane!!!" i got a response back.."oh my gosh!!!!!! that's so funny!" there we go it was my cousin!! So i told her how i had her number wrong in my moms phone and i texted some guy named Jose......oh and did she think that was SO FUNNY!!! I was texting her and she didn't respond for awhile then i got a response "sorry i'm still laughing! That is so funny!" I'm sure when i see her in a few weeks she will bring that up and we will laugh our heads off!!!!! Anyways that's my experience with texting mystery people.......kinda creepy..... Jaicee is the best cousin anyone could ever ask for! she is the BEST!!(these are from when i got home that night so Jaicee isn't in any, I'm planning on bringing it to our family Christmas party so we'll get some pictures of both of us then!)<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Today was the first day of our 2 day annual apple juice making party. It was kinda boring today not many people came...(which is unusual) towards the end of the day there were more people here but it wasn't crazy like most years. Tomorrow most of our family is coming. My sister and brother in - law and niece came today that was lots of fun! My friend Dave and i kinda goofed off since there wasn't much to do. throwing rotten apples at people...and other things was fun we discovered, Just showing my sister a rotten apple was fun cause she freaked out and i thought it was soooo funny...i even got pushed and shoved around for it but i just thought it was hilarious and kept doing it.... Later my friends Adam and David came that was fun! Then, it got crazy my friends Ethan and Hannah came. We kinda all went crazy. So yes it was a fun day but i was kinda shocked that not very many people came today. After we finished up for the night, Adam and David stayed for a while and we played Super Smash Bros Brawl. It was a good day overall! i will post more about tomorrow cause i'm sure it'll be AWESOME!!!!!!!! </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Here are a few pictures and videos from day 1 of apple days!! </div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">The videos will be added later because my video uploader is being stupid! but here are some pictures!</div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vSUrYdLMXz4/TPE7ettrONI/AAAAAAAAAm0/Lz9XyGNvH3o/s1600/154794_10150324676825321_628290320_15580987_6546516_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="267" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vSUrYdLMXz4/TPE7ettrONI/AAAAAAAAAm0/Lz9XyGNvH3o/s400/154794_10150324676825321_628290320_15580987_6546516_n.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr>

I wish, and dream about snowmobiling and hope someday to get a snowmobile....judging by the videos i show my parent's i don't think they want to get me a snowmobile.........i like the crash competition videos, they are so intense after every crash i say "whoa!" and watch in aw it all looks so fun. Winter comes and i ask my mom if we can tell my grandma to rent a snowmobile again for another awesome family reunion! I can just imagine how much fun i would have if we did it again! <br />
