Snow Day #2= Awesome!

Today was wonderful. More snow. Another day off from school. Friends. Hot Chocolate. Sleds. Snow. You get the picture.

This is a little taste of what it is looking like in my neck of the woods.

Jeremiah and Josiah and I went on a walk with Chris and Ash to Starbucks and had a blast! After walking through the snow with it blowing in our faces, we needed to thaw out, which explains our almost 2 hours there. Needless to say it was a blast, the only thing we forgot was a deck of cards :)

We walked back to the McCuens house and broke out in a spontaneous snowball fight. I mean how can you not when there are 7 inches of snow sitting on the ground tempting you?!


{Making our best snow balls}


{Pelting them at one another with all love and kindness in our hearts}

Then we sledded. Awesome is all I can say.

I mean can't you tell by their faces how amazing it was?

Ash and I went too. What fun it was!

Then we decided to race :)


We only had a few collisions...

just a few :)


{yep I was pretty much laughing non-stop, but then again I do that everyday}


we raced

and slid

and wiped out a few more times



And after it was all done, Jere was covered in snow and was soaked!


Needless to say we had a wonderful day. I love these people so much. And the lovely Tennis too!

Plus I just found out that I don't have school tomorrow! Can you say repeat of today with maybe the movie Tangled thrown in there? Although as I am writing this the power is deciding to flicker..NO! Lord, please don't let the power go out.. I mean it is kind of cold outside! Have a good night everyone!

Volleyball 2011



Well today marks the end of another volleyball year for me. We had our end of the year celebration, a brunch and the Sones house. It was a blast. I will so miss volleyball the rest of this year, but am excited for next year. At our celebration though, I was blown away by the award I recieved. Each year Coach Heidi gives out three awards, one for most valuable player, most inspirational player, and most improved player. I was awarded most improved player. I was schocked to say the least. What an honor it is to be given that award. I cannor go further though without thanking my most amazing coaches: Coach Heidi and Coach Tong. Also there is another person that I must thank, and that would be my brother Jeremiah. He has helped me countless of hours during the season. He was kind of like my personal coach. I have loved every bit of this season. All in all i have to say this morning was great. I got to have brunch with my team, recieve an award that I was so honored to get, and my dad suprised me on the way home by taking me to starbucks and getting a red cup! It was my first one too. I am saving for Christmas presents, italy, and other things, so I am cutting my expenses wherever necessary, which means less starbucks, which is why I haven't had a red cup, but my dad totally blessed me and I was so grateful. So here was my happy morning in pictures :)
What did you do this morning?
