Then we headed to Dole Plantation, home of the fresh pineapple! yummm. Tuesday

In the morning we went and boogie boarded, which was wayy fun!

then we went to a shrimp shack that was pretty good. then we went to the Polynesian Cultural Center which was wayy cool

the boys walkin in, with their matching shirts haha :)

learnin a dance a man totally climbed up this tree wayyy fast! Wednesday

The boys and Jill went golfing so my mom, Angie, Hailey, and me went to a beach and watched really good surfers.

and went to some shops..and got some dang good Matsumuto's shaved ice..Thursday

we went to Honolulu and went to the beach...we didn't stay there long because all they had to do were pattle boat thingys and then it started to get cloudy.

after that, we went to benihana. yumm!Friday

Chandler, Marc, Garrett, and Jill went to the shark encounters where you ride 3 miles out and get in a cage and see sharks..me, Hailey, and Angie just sat on the beach while they were there but i guess everyone threw up except for Chandler and no one felt good. so the boys were supposed to take surfing lessons in the afternoon, but Marc couldn't come because he threw up almost 15 times! :( so us girls went to watch them surf.

garrettchanthe surfers themselves. Saturday

we had to pack up and leave our ocean villa! :(

then we went to the flee market. My dad bought Marc & Chan these hats. haha :)Then we went to Pearl Harbor and rode the bus to Battleship Missouri

then we went to the airport to get on our plane :(

sleepin on the planeafter we landed in Salt Lake at 6:30 in the morning!!! i was sooo tired.the rest of the time we pretty much laid on the beach..played games...and laughed and impersonated Garrett...the whole fam damily! Jam it, Dill! (that was kind of an inside joke..)

2009-03-01T12:46:00.004-07:00

so this is late but these are the 3 that got in..

Allison Iraheta

i really really like her..she reminds me of Kelly Clarkson. haha she has a crazy hair color though. Jill, never do that too anyone lol. But anyways i really liked her.

Kris Allen

I absolutely loved his version of the man in the mirror...or what was it called? but yes i loved and i'm gonna download it off of itunes! i really like him :)
Adam Lambert
eh...i don't like him that much. whats so good about him? and no, i'm not judging how emo and scary he looks...ugh! but i do not like his voice. end of discussion.

My first American Idol post! ahh!

2009-02-20T22:25:00.003-07:00

well I am into American Idol again...however, i don't think this season is as talented as last season. There wasn't one person that I didn't like last season and of course, David Archuleta, was in that season! Haha. Anyways, their doing it different this year...top 36? I don't like it very much but whatever! But only 3 people got through on Wednesday and I don't think it gave the other contestants a chance! But its okay because my favorite got in!

yep, thats right. I think Danny Gokey has a dang good voice! He did awesome at his song and even got a standing ovvation! He is my favorite and I think he'll definitely win. (Thank goodness Tatiana's out haha) He has such a smooth good voice I love it! But no one beats David :)
I really really like Michael Sarver too...I didn't expect him to be very good when I first saw him but I really like him!

I'm not in love with Alexis Grace. Her voice is good but its not like WOAH! YOUR AWESOME! its just good.

well you'll hear from me next week after the results show! :)

2009-02-20T22:18:00.002-07:00

2009-02-01T13:53:00.004-07:00

My sister Angie tagged me and you have to say 10 things that bug you so here goes...

When I can hear forks scraping on plates or teeth or other utensils. I just cannot stand it! and for that reason I always use plastic forks for almost everything!

HUGE poofs. I poof my hair a little but when its as high as a mountain I just can't take it!

School. Who doesn't?! :) haha. Mostly cuz of waking up early and grades...other than that it'd be awesome ish.

Having a messy house! I hate when my room or house is messy, yet I'm the messiest person ever and I'm wayyy too lazy to clean it up.

It bugs me that I'm gonna be the last kid here when Garrett leaves and I'll be here with only my parents for 4 loooong years. No offense to my mom & dad I just need some other kids even though me and Garrett fight 24/7. My siblings better visit alot!

People that make fun of cheerleaders. (ali & carol)

When I forget my phone when I go somewhere

Party poopers. I'm always up for a party. Or having fun :)

The fact that I probably won't marry David Archuleta... :(

FINALS!!!! I just had some finals and they suckkkk.

Welp..theres my bugs. I now tag...Hannah, Annie, Sadie, Sophie, Kamille, Aspen, Savanah, & Lauren.

I haven't blogged forever so here's whats been going on...

My grandpa kimball came to stay with us...he has cancer and he's getting chemo tomorrow. I'm glad he can stay with us and we can take care of him.

(this was 2 years ago when he came to visit)

Garrett's been having alot of games so we've been having fun going to those alot. They've lost 3 games I think? I'm an 8th grade cheerleader and its just kind of a funny experience and...well I'll stop talking now but it's been crazy but I'll try to post more!

AMERICAN IDOL'S BACK!!!

2009-01-16T18:04:00.003-07:00

its the time of the year for American Idol again and I'm SO excited to have a reason to do a post alot. well the first two days of auditions were kinda crazy people from the bikini girl to the guy with the lowest voice in the WORLD! but that was so cool how that blind guy went and sang thats awesome. ...and the new judge! Kara Dioguardi? is that how you spell it? wait...okay i just look it up and google and i got it right. Kara Dioguardi. I really like her. welp. I'm excited to watch the rest and watch when they go to Salt Lake City!!! :)

Happy Birthday Marc! & Shannon too!

2009-01-13T22:31:00.003-07:00

2009!!!!

Happy New Year! For New Years eve, me and annie babysat 11 kids. Angie asked us too and they went to dinner with some of their friends so their friends brought their kids over. We thought it would be crazy with a bunch of kids but they just played together and they were really good. Most of the kids were gone by the time we actually celebrated the new year because they went home but Angie & Chan and the Manwarings went to the Manwarings house so we had McKinley, Ellie, Anna, & Ogden.

It was kind of funny because we told them that we were gonna watch the ball drop and when we did they were like how come it didn't drop? I think they thought it was gonna like, fall and brake or something. After celebrating, we had sparkling cider but they didn't like it very much lol.!! It was a really fun night!
Annie spent the night and we stayed up talking til 2am. and doing this...

hanging off the top bunk thingy things. lol.

Christmas was really fun this year!!!!

It all started on Monday night for family home evening at Grandpa's and we ended with refreshments...

this picture shows Halle's love for Easton. She is all over him all the time, she absolutely loves him! but Easton's just whatever. hahaha.on Tuesday we just hung out and that night we all went to a very bery yummy dinner at Fairview Inn and stayed up late playing games that night.

On Christmas Eve day we all went to Country Kitchen for lunch and came back to the house and just hung out....

played wii...

and colored...

me, Angie, and Hailey were in the kitchen and Halle was with us and she really wanted the m&m's. She held the bag right next to her and smashed a bunch into her mouth and it was hilarious.

Hailey and me and Angie love this picture. You better not take my m&m's Whitee!after she ate alot of those she was so tired and fell asleep on our living room couch but had to wake her up cuz the m&m's were still in her mouth and it was getting on the couch and we didn't want her to choke!!! hahaha. i love ya halle.

that night, we did the nativity...
Kinley was the angel...

Halle was Mary...(with the wawa of course)and Easton was the cutest little Joseph...

Quincy would have been little Jesus but she fell asleep.

then we went Christmas Caroling to some people...

and opened presents and had a yummy turkey dinner.

and I didn't get any pics of Christmas morning but I got alot of clothes, shoes, the American Idol wii game, and alot others! Garrett got Wii Fit but its a sharing present. It was sad cuz Ang and Chan weren't there because they decided to do Santa presents at their house!

Then on Christmas Day we had the bundt roll in the morning, played wii fit, and TALKED TO TANNNER! it was great to talk to him. Just one more year and we get to pick him up from the airport! and Jill & Shannon didnt leave til about 6:30 to go to Rexburg because they got snowed in!! and we got snowed in too and couldn't go to Angie's for dinner so we just played games.

The day after Christmas me and my dad were going to leave for California for my cousin Lynn's wedding and I was really excited and when we were about to leave my stomach hurt really bad and I didn't go!!! I was wayyy sad and I wish i was there but I'm feeling better today and I even went to church, I just really wish I could have gone.

Well I hope you had a Merry Christmas!!! :)

My bloggin Break

2008-12-18T14:50:00.006-07:00

so as you can see, I haven't done a post forever! well alot of things have been going on lately.

Easty and their parents came to visit!!

Last Friday Garrett had a game against AF and we won!!!

halle kissin easty at the game
we got Christmas cards out..

and for those of you who got it yes. it mentions my blog. I dont know if I like it.

and today was our last day of school before Christmas Break. It was a 'respect' day and so the first half of the day we went to classes about how we shouldn't tease, name-call, or bully. :) after Lunch everyone went to a movie of their choice (Elf, Alvin & the Chipmunks, Journey to the Center of the Earth). I'm in student government so me, Carolee, Taylor, Ali, Zane, & Kylan worked concessions for kids that wanted snacks, during the movie. It was really fun and we laughed like the whole time. We stayed in the concession stand til the last 10 minutes of the movie. So yeah it was way fun.

Also, my friends did a drawing for Christmas and I have Zoe and Sadie had me. Alot of us forgot to get our presents by today but Sadie got me these really cute blocks that you can paint and they spell faith :) i love em. and Shelby knows I love David Archuleta so she got me 2 David Archuleta posters from magazines lol. and I accidentally told Zoe what I'm getting her! A blanket! lol.

&&& I'm so excited for Christmas!

Thanksgiving weekend & Garrett's birthday

2008-11-29T17:45:00.006-07:00

So on Thanksgiving day we went over to my Grandpa's house. My aunts, Sue and Wendy, and my uncle Mel came all the way up from California so that was really fun. And of course...the food was yummy deliciousness. We pretty much spent the whole day talking, laughing, eating, and playing. It was a really fun day.

Halle & aunt Wendy

me & my mom

Halle was so cute :)

Angie & cute little Quincy
Halle & me

cute little Quincy
me & McKinley

also, Garrett's birthday was thanksgiving day so we celebrated it then too! We brought brownies for his "cake". Pie AND brownies!!
Kinley thought Garrett needed help blowing out his candles. Ha ha.
On Friday, everyone went to a movie. My aunt Lori, cousin Kelsey, my mom, and me went to see Twilight. Okay so even though I haven't read the books I LOVED IT!! I tried reading it and i got about halfway through the book and then stopped because it was just so long and I'm not much of a reader and I was getting confused. WELL, I am definitely starting again because I LOVED THE MOVIE!! So I hope I keep reading the book. Then we all went to Sizzler which was, you know, delicious. The cheese toast was awesome as always.

It was a really fun Thanksgiving!!! & Happy Birthday Garrett!

Late post about THAT devastating game!

2008-11-27T22:31:00.003-07:00

This is really late but last Saturday, my dad, Hailey, Marc, Garrett, Chandler, Jill, Shannon, and me all went to the BYU vs. UTAH game that totally sucked. I'm sure youve all heard about it. We had fun and everything but the game just didnt turn out right after 48-24 Utah win. Im sorry but I hate utah fans. On the way to our seats they're was a little fight that is inappropriate to put on the internet. haha. and later into the game we saw a Utah fan getting arrested (and was handcuffed) for some reason. Ha ha. Oh and me and Jill met Harvey Unga's wife there too so it was really cool. Better luck next year COUGARS!!

Its Thanksgiving!!

2008-11-27T09:37:00.003-07:00

girls night!!!

2008-09-07T17:05:00.005-06:00

on friday night, me and kamille went over to sadies house because there was a football game in declo and i did NOT feel like traveling. but we had soooo much fun.

we ate creamies...

... then kamille made this cool thing. you boil water and put some lemon juice in it and then you put your face over it and close your eyes with a towel over you and it will open your pores (whatever that means) but it felt cool.

it was so hot i was scared!!!

then we put on lotion,cut cucumbers, and put them on our eyes!! it was awesome and quite the makeover night.

we hung out the rest of the time...(see bottom of post for more details)

made sadie a blog!!! and made kamille's cute!!! such a fun night. :)

p.s. so while we hung out, a fun thing for us is to call Z103 and request songs. anyways, surprisingly we got a hold of them alot. so one time when i called this is how our conversation went.

dj: z103

me: hey it would be great if you played american boy by estelle. (we were hyper)

dj: you know, that would be great. whats your name?

me: whitney

dj: well would it be okay if we put your voice on the radio tonight?

me: hahaha. uh...sure!

dj: okay youll be on in about 2 hours.

me:okay thanks bye!

dj: bye.

pretty dorky conversation but we had Z103 on all night and i heard my voice and i ran to the radio and i missed but they put my song on after it. funny story.

happy birthday lauren!!!!!

2008-09-06T20:27:00.004-06:00

lauren turned 13!!!! shes smart,pretty,cool,nice,good,and smart. shes so awesome. thanks for bein my friend!!

the FAIR.

2008-09-01T19:10:00.004-06:00

its the time of year for the fair and i am so happy about it. whats not to love about the fair? well todays labor day and the daws, bradshaws, my parents and my brother went and ate and took my nieces on some rides. then on the way back i found carolee so i stayed with her and then we found annie and her cousin so we hung out with them but THEN it started raining so me and annie decided to head back home and on the way back it poured and poured. when i finally got to angies house i was DRENCHED. luckily, i had a sweatshirt on and a shirt on under that so i had a shirt but i used some of angies pj pants to go home. i felt like i went swimming today. but overall the day was waaaaaay fun. and im going back to the fair wednesday with annie so i hope its not as stormy!! :)

(^another boy we didnt know)

happy birthday taylor!!!

girls camp.

2008-06-29T21:29:00.009-06:00

i just got back from girls camp on friday. it was sooooo funnn! on the way there we went to the snake river canyon or whatever its called and then went to mcdonalds for some mcflurrys and then walked around the twin falls temple.

the following is us with ira burton perrine. ha.

(man ^this^ is the most pro-pho picture i've ever taken in my life)

and the rest was just fun with camp!!!

and some serious snipe huntin fun.

i pretty much held hands with all the people on the very very left. tiffanie (at the top left.) hannah (at the middle left by me.) and zoe (the very very bottom with her tongue stickin out :P )

girls camp was awwwwwwwwwwwwessssssssssssssommmmmmme. and you could always feel the spirit so strong there. it was great. oh and the best memory of girls camp is my lost voice. i lost it the night of snipe hunting which was wednesday so i could barely talk the last two days! then i got my voice back the night we got home which was great.

p.s. the theme of girls camp was "U R.O.C.K." Rely On Christ the King. so that explains all our sweat shirts that you rock.

oh,and taylor got sick and had to go home. we missed you taylor!!!

U ROCK.

2008-06-09T20:07:00.024-06:00

yessssss. its nice to be back in the bloggin world. now that american idol is over my life is over. no jk i just dont have as many posts. but i have been gone. so this is what ive been doin.

im finally gettin around to do this post. sorry its late. some of you have been waiting (annie) and its here. so i got invited to go to a drug-free youth conference in targhee. it was so dang fun. idfy= idaho drug free youth

we left last monday june 2nd and came home on thursday june 5th. alot of my friends went too.

i went.

lauren went.

carolee went.

kylan went.

zane went.

skyler went too but i do not have a picture of him.

so we had to be at the school at nine forty-five monday morning. so we were. but we had to pick kids up in af and pokey and blackfoot. we waited for like an hour for the af kids and we picked everyone else up.

on the way therewe got to grand targhee at about two-thirty and it was crazy cuz we like got there and kids just came on our bus like crazy just screamin and havin fun. everyone on the bus was kinda scared but it was funny. so their all tellin us to go off the bus and they will get our luggage. we get off the bus and all these kids greeted us. and we had to go to registration and get our name tags and decorate em. we went and got settled in our rooms. i shared a room with carolee, lauren, laurens mom, nicole white (a girl in high school), teresa castro (she goes to af), and 2 west jefferson girls. one was named kilee and idk the other ones name. so we had to go to the "big tent" so they could tell us what family group we were in and who was our leaders. mine was sherry (whom i knew before) and a kid named trenidy whom we called tren or batman. the people that were in my family group were kami, jorge,katie,ruby,brett,jessie,megan,hannah,yoyo(yolanda),and alicia. i got to be really good friends with

katie

yo-yo

and jorge. not like..horhay. its george. but he spells it jorge. and hes by mini jorge. we made him out of aluminum foil.

their all studs.

wellllll..over the days we just had alot of activities.

speakers

troy mcclain - who was on the first season of the apprentice and got fired.

craig conrad- who i thought was the best speaker. he wrote a book-

"i am unstoppable." i didnt buy it but zane did and i wish i wouldve.

and this other guy that id remember his name and he drew this really cool picture but i didnt have my camera it was so cool i wish you could see it.

free time

where we could do...pretty much whatever we want.

lauren with all our milky way and jolly rancher wrappers we threw on the floor.

as you can see they had fun with my hair-

writing some warm fuzzies.

staring out into the distance.

there was a dance.

zane and kylan liked to take pictures.

but us girls did too.

we were crazzzzzzy.

and the weather wasnt very nice to us.

the last day was saddddd. time to say goodbye to our family groups.

writin some goodbye notes.

but the way home was fun.

it was way fun and i was waaaay glad i went. :)

2008-05-21T15:42:00.003-06:00

so on monday..this came in the mail.

if you cant tell, its a napkin that says "To Whitney, David Archuleta". boo-ya. because of my wonderful aunt wendy i now have this keepsake. my aunt wendy is good friends with davids aunt so i got this 'specially for me. :) so david a better win tonight. did he do way better than cook last night? or did he do way better than cook last night? i hope you all voted for him and i voted ALOT. but alot of the time it was busy so i guess thats a pretty good sign!

may the best man win. and thats archie.

this is a week late. i know. and the results show for this week starts in about 34 minutes. so i'll have another post in about two hours. okay. so. brooke. in a way im sad. but in a way..yess. although it was nice of her to apologize to the judges for her "interrupting." i really liked her. but i will be okay. this is my prediction of tonight.

he'll get off. that would be radical. dont you think? he was horrible last night.

_weekend with angie_

2008-04-30T19:00:00.008-06:00

so i went to visit the daws this weekend. they are so cool.

anyways.

so i was fidelin' around with my camera and my cam can do some pretty cool stuff. i will show you. (the following is my weekend at angies.)

its amazing that this extra ordinary picture..

can turn in to this professional photography.

see?

as you can see, on saturday, we jumped on annies tramp for a little bit and we rode mckinleys bike over there. boy, thats an adventure. and we also had pizza and painted our nails. it was alot of fun. saturday night the daws had to go to baylee whitneys birthday party, so they dropped me off at the lucases house. who are moving to ogden :(. and we went to wingers. okay. its not on the menu but ask for the sticky finger alfredo. heavenly. and then jill and shannon had to go to stake adult meeting and they dropped me off at chilis cuz thats where angie was eatin with her friends. and of course i didnt eat at chilis. i was way too full from wingers.

Sunday: i went to angies stake conference and since my dad is sick, we were going to go to my house and cook him dinner but he said it was okay and garrett can come get me later. so we chilled there. mckinley really wanted to swing and we really wanted to rest. so we got some umbrellas, snacks, pillows, and a huge blanket to lay on. it was really fun. marc and hailey came over since they were on their way back from kuna and marc and chan rode motorcyles behind the house!

some more pictures of the weekend.

yeah i know. i take alot of pictures. but thats just a good sign of me taking after my grandma kimball. :))

my past week.

2008-04-25T18:09:00.015-06:00

there is alot of things i was going to post about..so i am just gonna do it in one. here goes.

annie

annie came to aberdeen on saturday to go to jr miss cuz i wanted her to see my school and stuff. we sat by my friend hannah and kinda by my friends ali, mirian, cristina, and all my other hispanic dawgs. theyre so awesome. oh yeah, and the girl who won jr miss..was becca! woot woot. i love her and shes going to prom with garrett! haha.

us after it. this was taken at about it twelve thirty am. on sunday i had to go to BYC in the morning (told ya im busy bein' beehive president) and then my dad, garrett, and annie picked me up and we went to sagean's (chandlers brother) farewell. hes going to chile. i think. is that right? i think so. idk. so many people are going on missions right now. and so after that we went to chandlers sisters house for a dinner and left. annie stayed with the daws and went home with them.
me and annie on the way there.
a cool pic of annie. haha. :]

jumpin pics: inspired by kenzie baker :D

so me and lauren were bored on a bright and sunny tuesday afternoon. so we went out on the tramp and just said, 'hey. might as well take jumpin pictures' so we did. and we took alot of 'em. alot i tell you. alot. heres some of the accomplished ones.

okay so this is it. all the ones i accomplished and one of them isnt really accomplished. so check this out. lauren totally accomplished.

see? isnt it rad. well heres some pics of us not accomplishing our task.

crazy, eh? some other pics during this kangaroo jumpin' fun.

yeah i wasnt done with my homework. hey. it was a warm day. why not do it outside?

okay. enough of those. well that night, the night of american idol, the beehives came over to my house and we watched saturday's warrior, the best LDS show of all time. one of the girls was like "okay. we have got to change this. this is stupid." we voted on it. and we still watched it. boo yah! heres some pics.

sadie

maricruz

lauren.

and no. i do not have a picture of the whining girl. she got their late. we missed taylor and zoe because of their track meet.

and my last section.

my under-the-bed junk

so i just cleaned my bedroom this afternoon. and decided to see whats under my bed. WHOA. holy moly. after seein' all this crap. i cleaned it out. wanna see all the junk?

yeah and this is not counting all the candy wrappers and garbage. the things i found were the following: hailey's old flip flops (sorry hailey, i forgot to give those back about two summers ago), my leg warmers for pointe, various drinking cups, a sign language book, a notebook, various pens, alotta socks, ballet shoes from when i was in like..third grade, a teddy, 20 questions bored game, hangers, cups, ping pong balls, and everything else you see. i know. im messy.

gotta go.

my numba three.

2008-04-24T21:37:00.004-06:00

so i remembered that carly was my number three. but holy moly guacamole. theres only five ppl left. so i'm not really gonna have a "number list" i just want to let you know that the finals better be

archuleta

&& && &&

cook

vote for them.

my science project. whoopee.

2008-04-23T22:21:00.005-06:00

so..to make things a little more exciting on my blog. take a look at my science project. the awards were announced today and no. i did not place. and thank heavens cuz i didnt want to go in front of the whole school and show off my project. well. here's what its on.

i did it on "which soft drink/pop has the most carbonation"

i did this by buying 3 bottles of 4 brands: coke, 7-up, root beer, and dr. pepper. then i put a balloon on the top of the bottle, with the lid off and shook the bottle for 45 seconds which would make the balloon inflate. immediatly after, i measured the circumference of the balloon and i did this with each bottle and took the average.

i was gonna have you guys guess what it was. but, some people already know.

7-up.

my hypothesis was coke but that came in last place.

heres some pics.

everyone thought it was pretty cool.

bye.

oh yeah. and the first place winner for my grade..was the first place winner last year.

i luv american idol:who got voted off? 04-23-08

2008-04-23T22:10:00.005-06:00

oh. my. gosh. guess who was..

just guess. just guess. well your wrong.

cuz it was carly. carly. carly. okay. i love her. and i probably would have voted for her but i am the president of the beehives and had things to do, places to go. first of all..it was a huge shock when brooke was safe over syesha. did you hear brooke's performance?!?! at least the first part of it?!?! well. so she was safe. and syesha was sittin on that stool. and another shock..jason and carly were up. and i thought jason would sit on that stool. but. no. it just had to be carly. and the last shock..carly was off. bam. like that. i thought it would be her and the davids dangit.

thank you america. thanks alot.

shoppin' :)) ..and the brewsters!

2008-04-15T21:32:00.004-06:00

me, annie, and lauren went shoppin on satuday! best day of my life. the whole weekend started when me and lauren had to work at the annual pta carnival cause one of our friends mom is in charge of it. so yeah we did that and it was fun. and so then lauren slept over.
us bein crazy. we were on speakerphone with annie at the time. (okay so the glasses were my friend cristinas and they are fake and they broke. so she gave em to me. lol.)

so yeah. we picked up annie that morning in blackfoot and went to the ol' chuckarama for lunch. i got a funny story for y'all. so me and lauren and annie got out of the car and started headin for the main entrance. my mom was kinda behind us. we passed a lady on our way in. didnt look familiar to me. so then..we heard my mom screaming. we turned around and my mom was hugging her and jumping around. this happened as we a girl with 2 kids was holding the door open for us. and the girls eyes were like..crazy. we all hurried in so we wouldnt be embarassed by the event and we all just started cracking up. my friends were all like.."your mom is so hilarious sometimes! haha. lol" hehe. so she came in and this is what she said

"guess who that was?! PEGGY BREWSTER! AH." for those of you that dont really live in aberdeen, they lived here about 7 years ago and we were gettin to be really good friends when they moved to missouri. anyways, they have kids who were good friends with us. keith ,who was a little older than tanner. kevin, who was a little younger than tanner. and then my almost bestest friends, lori and jessie!! they are twins and one year older than me but we had some good times. like..painting the camper with red popcicles, having pink mac and cheese at my barbie birthday party...and lots more. good times. good times. and theres mark, whos my age but i dont remember him too well.

thats lori and me on the left. and jessie, annie, and lauren on the right. it was so crazy to see them. oh, and i forgot to mention that they moved to victor, idaho. by jackson hole. suh-weet.

so then we went shopping. aeropostale, hollister, old navy, victoria secret (the chapstick, lotion perfume, etc. part of the store.), and bath and body works. fun. fun.

so then after shopping, my wonderful mom took us to coldstone. which was so yummmmy.

annies model pose.

and lauren declares that this is the real me. lol. hehe.

thanks for takin' me and my friends ma!<3

sorry for this "late post" angie. i couldnt post last night cause i have a busy life..homework and school okay?

anyways..

who was

yup. michael johns. no kidding. its crazy isnt it? A. kristy lee cook wasnt in the bottom three. and i was so shocked. so shocked. and 2. when ryan said, "syesha.... and ....carly. you are safe." i thought he was gonna say that they are the bottom two. i thought that syesha was gonna go home. no doubt. but i was wrong. also, as i repeat.

kristy lee cook should seriously, like..just ask to get off the show. why do people vote for her? if you have..please, please stop. and i know she did pretty good tuesday. but still.

goodbye.

the bottom three was carly, kristy, and amanda. i was perty shocked that carly was in there. but then she was safe. so it was between kristy and amanda and me and lauren were like..definitely kristy but..

amanda got off. i was shocked. i think kristy should have gone off but amanda?! i didnt like her at all. i hated her but i seriously think kristy should have gone. since its the top twelve, i am starting a new favorite list. i cant realy split it between boys and girls cuz..you know. so.

#1.

david archuleta. my aunt wendy just called me and said that his aunt got him to sign a pic of himself saying to 'to whitney' . he actually knows my name! ah!

#2.

brooke white. she has been doing really good lately. her version of 'here comes the sun' wasnt the best but she is still my #2.

carly smithson. i have really been liking her lately. she will do really good. i think.

when the dads go away, the girls get to play..and garrett.

2008-03-16T14:45:00.007-06:00

last weekend my dad and chandler went to vegas for some byu basketball and car auctions. so angie, mckinley, and halle came down.

parachute girl is mckinleys dance for her dance class. she gave us a preview of what we will be seeing on may 9th.

me and howie.

garrett was gonna go to the stake prom but then his friends decided not to..so he pretended to take halle. jk. but seriously. only for like..five seconds.

thanks for coming ang! it was fun.

i luv american idol: who got voted off? 3-12-08

2008-03-13T10:59:00.006-06:00

who got

and off the top 12?

my number 3..david hernandez. who i found out was a male stripper which doesnt make me happy. but based on singing he was good.

since he was my number 3. my new one would have to be..either michael johns or david cook but i think i will go with..

michael johns..i like david cook. i just cant picture him becoming the next american idol.

happy birthday dad!!

2008-03-13T10:39:00.005-06:00

happy 54th birthday dad!!!54! your such a great dad and teach me so much. thanks for dealing with me. your the best dad a 13 year old girl could ever have!

weekend trips. :]

2008-03-09T17:45:00.037-06:00

this is kinda late..but two weekends ago.. me, my mom, angie, halle, jill, easty beasty, and hailey went to my cousin lindsays wedding. it was way fun. kay. so on friday we drove down to salt lake city.

a few pics from that event.

(this one is professional photography, i tell you, professional photography)

(this one looks like this crazy little lady trying to steal my camera. lol :))

so yeah. halle pretty much did a photo shoot for me.

we then got to the airport..but on the way to the airport halle was really hyper (as you can see in the upper pictures) and easton was not--

see?

so when we got to the airport, it was visa versa. however you spell that
this is hyper.

this is not.

yea. then we flew to the san diego airport.

a few pics from that event.

me..just happily chillin in the airplane. but then..hailey tried to look like me--

-and i realized that i was a dork. jk. (i love how you can tell that me and hailey were sharing headphones. look closely)

me and easty on the plane. i love his eyes.

we got to the hotel and we were starving. but it was about 1 in the morning, i think, and we all felt like pizza. we called about all the pizza places in carlsbad and they were all closed. dang. so we just survived on muddy buddies and fudgies or fell asleep starving.

the next morning we went to the temple for the wedding. i took care of halle pallie and easty beasty. it was quite easy cause my cousin troy helped me out. we thought that it was gonna be so warm but on saturday it was a little chilly. burrr. then there was a really nice luncheon at the hilton garden inn. it was good food. and then that night there was a reception and my aunt deb decorated it so pretty. i want her to do my wedding. and at the reception there was really good food too. i like food, if you cant tell. lol.
me and hailey at the beautiful temple.

that sunday morning we went to this marine thing that my uncle dave was the bishop of. it was cool. like, them saying "sir" after everything. we went to the hotel to take a nap and change. and then went to aunt debs to hang out.

a pic from that event.

all the sisters before going to aunt debs house. i had a better pic but it somehow got deleted.

so we hung out at debs house and then went to pat & oscars. it was pretty good. then we went to the mall but it was closed so we went and got some ice cream and watched movies in the hotel room. it was so funny- we made some popcorn and halle loved it.

she spread it all over the floor and ate it. she would take the bowl and like..dump it in her mouth. lol.

want some?

easton was so happy that night too..

(the camera is making my voice sound really loud..you might want to turn the volume down a bit.)

easty and hailey. easton's hooked on that american idol special.

monday we pretty much just went crazy shopping at the outlet mall. it was so much fun. we then met my aunt deb at ruby's diner that was in the outlet mall.

a pic from that event.

and then..we flew home. and that was it. it was sad to leave the warm happy feeling of the weather. but it was so much fun and i was happy we went.

the next weekend (which was last) all the wahlen single kids and the moms and dads had a little family reunion. i didnt get any pictures but here's the scoop. we drove down there friday and we all went to benihana. i tried sushi for the first time..how can people like it? i hate it. so bad. so that night after it the kids were bored so we went to see 10,000 B.C. with some of the parents. the movie was better than i thought it would be. we got back to the hotel about 12:30 and went to sleep.

the next morning we ate breakfast and went shopping. that night, we went to the jazz game!

they played the denver nuggets and smoked 'em. it was alot of fun. then we walked over to crown burger to eat. sunday morning everyone but us, the bakers, aunt wendy, and grandpa left. so all of us went to music and the spoken word. it was pretty but, two incidents happened. we heard a little moan during one of the songs and we looked over and a pregnant lady had a bunch of people helping her out. and then during the last song one of the choir members was kinda falling and so another choir member sat him down. after the song alot of men carried him out to the top and later we heard an ambulance coming..i guess we will have to read the obituaries. then we went to eat at sizzler. it was really fun. woot woo.

i luv american idol: who's in the top 12?

2008-03-06T22:10:00.011-07:00

who got

tonight?

luke menard, who had a really high voice. i didnt like him.

kady malloy, who should have gotten off the first week. and alaina was way better.

danny norriega, who was like..GAY! he is a weirdo.

and devastatingly..my number 1 girl..

asia'h epperson, who really is good and has a unique voice.

it is now time i announce a new number 1..

#1..shyesa mercado.

..and since she was my #2..

#2..brooke white

..and since she was my number 3..

#3..carly smithson. i really dont like her that much. but my other choices are ramiele and kristy.

but..on the brightside. blake lewis performed.

correction

2008-03-06T15:46:00.005-07:00

based on last nights performance..

i would like to cross out ramiele..

and announce brooke white as my number 3.

#3, brooke white. who i assume is mormon.

are you happy, angie?

i luv american idol: who's in the top 16?

2008-03-04T22:04:00.013-07:00

a little late. but last thursday..

jason yeager..i didnt really like him. i agree with angie..hes too dramatic

alexandrea lushington, who i didnt really notice until she got voted off.

robbie carrico..he was like bucky from season 5 i think or was it 4..no, it was 5. but i didnt like him or bucky so i am glad he is off.

alaina whitaker.. :'( ..she was my number three. she should NOT have been off. kady malloy should have and now that she is off my new number three is..

ramiele malubay.(sorry ang, brooke is not standing out to me)

hmm..who is gonna get off on thursday?! who will be in the top 12?!

happy birthday hailey

2008-02-27T18:47:00.007-07:00

Yesterday was my big sister hailey's birthday. she is so cool and ONE of the best sisters EVER! i am sorry i don't call you more often..trust me, i have done enough of that! love ya!!<3

i luv american idol: who's in the top 20?

2008-02-23T19:36:00.019-07:00

if most of you know me..i am in LUV with american idol. here is the top 24..

thursday, who was...

you ask?

colton berry, who had a good voice but wasn't my favorite.

amy davis, who i thought was like haley scarnato from last season..beautiful..but not the best voice.

garrett haley, who mom liked either because she has a son named garrett and a daughter named hailey, or he has a good voice..i am pretty sure its the first reason.

joanne borgella, who i really liked..i voted for her a few times but i was shocked that she got off.

my favorites girls are..

#3..alaina whitaker

#2..shyesa mercado..(she lost her voice totally in hollywood and was still one of the best ones!)

and # 1..my favorite..asia'h epperson. she is AMAZING! her dad died two days before her audition and she still did awesome..

my favorite boys are..

#3..david hernandez

#2..jason castro..(even though he would be way cuter if his hair wasnt like it is..freaky.)

#1..david archuleta..he is the BEST!! he will definitely go far in the competition and is my absolute favorite.

please comment..who do you like on american idol?!
