Me and Philip at mutual today

These youth at mutual are definitely my favorite people ever!! We have lots of good times. :) This week................

Chelsea was super excited to see me and started scolding me for an unknown reason (It's just what she does) and gave me a huge hug

Taven called Tanner and told him that he ate me for mutual

I made Jeremy smile

I found two new games to play with Philip- catch with the basketball and throw the water noodle at Shawn and Jake

Sarah had beautiful curled hair from sleeping in curlers and was very proud of it

The wheelchair lift on the Tiny Tots bus wasn't working so we had to manually lift it to get Taven on the bus

We formed a wheelchair club

Beth was excited to see me

Carl squashed a trash can by putting it in between his legs and using it as a drum

Philip acted like he wanted some frosting but then didn't. It took a while to clean up.

Taven has no idea how old he is

I gave Nathan a water noodle and he was super excited

State Basketball & My Birthday

My school's boys basketball team won state!! It was very exciting! From what I heard, this is the first time OHS Basketball has ever won state! I went to every game this week for the finals up at the Maverik Center in Salt Lake.

Me, Tanner, and Rachel on Monday

 Me and Kaylee on Wednesday

 This is all the Orem students leaving the court after we won on Saturday. Right after the game some kids started running onto the court, and the police weren't stopping them or anything, so everyone started following them. The announcer was trying to tell everyone to stay in their seats, then said "What the heck. Go for it!"

 My bus chose to go back to the school before the rest of the buses so that we could get home. :( It was still really cool though watching the buses arrive with a police escort! They were escorted by police all the way from exiting the freeway until they arrived at the school.

 Everyone made a big tunnel for the players and coaches to run through to get into the school from the bus.

 We had a party at the school afterwards with pizza for everybody and a LOT of celebrating!

My 18th birthday was Friday!! My family made the coolest cake for me that took them all day to make! I was at the state tournament, so I didn't see it until I cut into it that night!

The process... 

 This is definitely the sweetest frosting job I've ever seen!

 My mom was out of town for Caroline's birthday, so she got a cake on my birthday.

 Cutest cake ever or cutest cake ever? They even got the striped candles so it would look zebra!

 I've never been good at blowing out candles. I blew out all but one this year. Eventually I'll get good at this.

 My mom had me cut into the cake so I could see the exciting inside. I was confused when I cut in until she said that it was zebra. So this is me realizing what the stripes are for.

 Caroline said that she's always wanted to put her face in the cake. So she did. Super cute, right?... ;)

 My friends that came over that night! Me, Kaylee, Drew, Taft, Thomas, Evan, and Nicole

 The Young Women's President Sister Cox put this in my lawn that morning! I didn't see it until after school because I had early morning seminary. It's so cute!
