july...already. holy crap.
i really can't believe it. time has flown and it's been crazy. june was a pretty chill month.
so much happened and i wish that i could say right away that i've grown from it but i can't really say that right now. i'm still working on growing up..it's a little hard. :) i hate being selfish and self-centered. so i think my goal for july...and on out is to work on not being those things.
it's something i really struggled with last month and it's tearing me apart.
basically that's been my life in a nutshell for the past month.
whew.
and i think that's it. time for some partying with some wonderfully lovely people.
comewhatmay...

graduation parties..and more graduation parties is the best way to explain this past weekend. it was crazy. erin, isabel and i went to aaron and eddie's grad party on friday night and had a blast. we ended up staying all night and just having a lot of fun, hanging out and talking and playing ladder golf under the party tent while it was raining. :)
then on saturday we went to cassie's grad party for a while and swam in her pool...it was a good time. we headed to andy's for a bit to have a bonfire.
yesterday and today have been scorching hot outside...we have the air on...it's sooo hot outside. :)
ok im going to go do something productive.

....so i'm working on updating the look of this blog...
and downloaded a few templates...
right now...i think i like this one...there's just some spanish that i had to read to figure out how to work it. and considering i don't know spanish...it was semi-difficult. also. that's why there are links on the side in spanish. yeah i'm working on changing those.....

last sunday june 7,2009 was my grandpadu's last sermon at his church in Luxemburg WI. Almost the whole family was there to have a little get together and sing for grandpadu and Jesus. :) I had an awesome time although us older cousins had nap time in the living room while everyone else was running around. I noticed while looking at pictures that us cousins look SOOO much alike even though we are all pretty different.. here's some random pics of the cousins from the past few times i've seen them.
dad took two pics of all the cousins...minus 3...i think that's everyone else. we were missing keaton, ella and adler.
gabi LOVED playing with zoe and telling her mom about the baby. :)
...the big question is...What have you been doing for the past couple weeks?!
Well I've been doing a lot of stuff...including a lot of nothing. :) Lately though I've been painting. I took up random jobs around the house to tackle painting different rooms. I've really enjoyed it and hopefully will be able to get some more done soon!
Erin and i worked on the bathroom...i didn't take a picture...cause it's a bathroom. and i thought that'd be weird. Also we painted a wall in mine and isabel's room bright green. it looks pretty sweet.
The green we had left over i used for part of the girls' room. I did three walls this purpley-lilac color...and then one wall the bright green. they really needed something to brighten their room up and these colors definitely did! after finishing the purple i traced different sized circles all around the room in clumps and by themselves to create bubbles! there was a lot of time put into it..but i had fun and it was my "alone time" :) i was so happy to hear that the girls LOVE IT...if they hadnt...i was going to switch rooms with them. ;)

the worst part about the school year ending is that i've just started making new friends. which im sure i can keep...but not being at school is going to be weird. but the other worst part about school ending and mostly high school ending is choir. it's been almost my life for the past 4 years and whenever i just needed something to cheer me up it would be with choir. i loved majority of the songs we sang. it was with a great teacher and some there were only a few people in it all four years. it's been awesome being able to spread the word to people all over the country through our choir tours and even with our concerts at home. next year and the years to come i'm going to miss being in choir and under the direction of mr. staub. i think that even if i would join another choir it would be so weird because he isn't the director. :) it's been pretty awesome for us because we started as freshman and he started as a new teacher the same year. we've learned our way around LW through the four years..and now it's coming to an end.
erin and i have endless stories about mr. staub and well the music room too. it's been such an awesome fours years. next year i dont know what i will do without these two people in my daily life.
well that's another post for when school starts again and erin's off to CUNE and mr. staub's at LW and i'm here...doing whatever.

here are some pictures from our last choir concert. one is of erin and me and mr. staub. we were laughing about something. and then the other picture is with the people who have been in choir all four years with mr. staub.

so much is going on these next few weeks. it will fly by.
well for the month of april some things got kind of crazy also. we've had musical practice till 5 basically every day. then a group of us went to a play at WLC and that was fun. i was able to eat a cinnabon...which i haven't had in YEARS. then erin and i split chinese food. :) yum.
it was a good night.
then spring break we went to florida. it was such a great time.
i was able to get some great photos that i will put into an album for everyone instead of putting them all on here individually.but the one above is one i absolutely LOVE!
one of my friends is buying a huge copy from me once i figure out how to print it. if you'd like a copy..comment and then email me. i have some other versions of this one too.
so in florida basically all i did was lay out by the pool and on the beach. sounds boring but i dont remember the last time i was able to do that. it was so glorious because i was able to take in the warmth and sun for an entire week.
we were able to borrow the klahn's van. it was so nice. and then all of us piled in. we went to the beach and pool every day.
last wednesday after watching LOST i was talking to one of my friend's online. i knew that her mom had been struggling with her health (she had cancer) the past few weeks. so i asked about her mom and how things were going. the girl told me that her mom had died the night before. i was shocked. i didnt know what to do or how to respond. i was so upset. i could not imagine losing a parent as a senior in high school and within the last month of school. so we talked a little more. and she kept telling me that she knew her mom was in a better place and wasn't hurting anymore. all i could respond with was ,'wow, you are so strong!' i didn't know what to say. within one day of her mom dying she was talking to me and telling me that she was alright and knew that things were going to be ok. wow. amazing. what an awesome girl. God is really working on her. i just know it.
i told dad and everyone else and right as it was coming out i just started bawling. i didnt know it just couldn't stop. i said her mom died. and i lost it. one of my friend's mom had died. i was shocked. after taking some breaths i was able to go down to the pool late at night and go for a swim. the air was cold but the water was so warm and it felt nice to just be able to close my eyes and swim back and forth. it was night and quiet outside. lights were shining from each cottage and i just had to take a step back from everything.
erin and i were away from each other for a week whihc hasn't happened in almost over a year. we're always together and talking. so we had the chance to talk online for a few days and then i talked to my friend aaron too. it's awesome having to friends erin and aaron. and then have an aunt erin and uncle aaron. how confusing. :) i guess i must like the name. ;)
oh well we were able to talk and stay close even though we were over 1000 miles apart.
then as a family we went to fudpucker's. i love that place. it's so good.
the last day i was able to see paul and sam, who i work with and one of their friends, laura. they were staying next door to us...well pretty much! it was so awesome. so we went in the ocean and talked for a bit.
on last friday we drove home. it took us 18.5 hours to get home..with a 2 hour stop. that's really great time.
this past week we've had practice till 6 and then we get home...and do homework and chores. its a great time..
this coming week is tech week. im so scared for what is going to happen with that.
next weekend is the musical. the weekend after that is the walkathon and fun day.
the weekend after that is prom. the week after that is just a regular week and then we have exams.
then GRADUATION.
i'm graduating!
ok. kellen and i are talking and people in my class hate me for some reason..it's really weird.
im going to go. read. bed. finish talking to erin.
comewhat may.

today is the day where i dont know whether to start laughing or crying...
we never thought that it would come this far and now it has.
so as i sit here at 12.30 in the morning i sit and do a "smile-cry" just because we're here.
a year ago this week is something i'll never forget. what a weird thing to say. but i know it won't ever slip.
a year ago this week..it was three days after zoe was born..the tuesday of spring break. i remember dad coming home and telling isabel, kellen and i that it was only going to be a few days that she'd live. we were going to live each day the best we could. we were going to fight it through together and with His help.
a year ago today our lives changed. our lives change every day but this day was something different. God has something to say through each of us. and since day 1 He's been speaking through zoe. this little baby who is now not soo little anymore. how many people has she touched? how many people has God gotten to through zoe's life? we know that the blog is reaching people all over the world and videos are being posted regularly by dad from those people wishing the little girl a happy one year.
so. a year ago today...it was a good day. no matter what kinda crap happened in between that saturday early earlly in the morning and right now on sunday morning...it was a very good day.

so much has happened. i guess.
kristin was really sick for a little bit and ended up going into the hospital. she had a kidney infection...so we prayed for her at school. i went in for student help day to get help with pre-calc. then i helped mr staub for like 4 hours. i organized a ton of stuff in the back. helped erin tape her music audition. there was a point where i pressed record and she's giving thumbs up with this hilarious look on her face. haha.
then erin and i hung out..i guess that's basically my life...erin and i hang out and then i work and go to school. literally that's my life right now.
we have a three day weekend this weekend..which is great and awesomely wonderful.
im supposed to have senior pictures tomorrow morning...hopefully. and next weekend we're having a birthday bash for zoe. next friday is also our turnabout dance. i'm pretty excited. i think just because it's a dance. and that will be exciting. erin and i went to boston store last night and i tried on one dress...I LOVE IT! it's so pretty but i dont know. it's too expensive...so i'll just have to look around.
in a few weeks we'll have spring break and then we're headed to FLORIDA. yayyy. oh man. oh and we have choir tour in like 12 days! ahh. oh my gosh. 12 days. that's not too far away. crap.
ok i have to work on the tour book and my room. there's just too much to do and right now...i dont feel like doing any of it.

friends are friends forever....
songs have been flying through my head for the past couple minutes and this one is my favorite as of right now.
i think that it's an awesome song right now because it's something that i've been thinking about lately. FRIENDS. i have awesome friends. they watch out for me all the time and listen to all my stupid stories...i've been talking to one of my friends lately and helping them deal with some issues. it's really interesting because i didn't know how all the crap i've been through was going to help others but right now it's helping dramatically. i love helping people...although i end up getting worked up about all these stupid things and it doesn't help my situation...
anyway. friends.
"And friends are friends forever
If the lords the lord of them
And a friend will not say never
cause the welcome will not end
Though its hard to let you go
In the fathers hands we know
That a lifetimes not too long to live as friends.:"
on a side note...joy williams-yetton's blog is amazing. she is an amazing writer. she can give such a vivid picture of things that if you weren't in the music business you totally understand. and i do understand. i love it.
also, today i met dad's friend, ben, from work. it was great to finally meet him because i've heard so much about him and seen some of his videos and music videos. they are amazing.
here's one that dad and him worked on with AVICOM.
it was a huge avicom project. it's really fun to see something like this and you know the people who put their thoughts and ideas into making it possible.
