Hamlet

Brad helped me with a Hamlet project I had to make. The assignment was to pick a well-known quote from Hamlet and make a visual representation for it. It could be in any form. I decided to take pictures. I still need to figure out how to bind the whole photo progression together though...

Valentines Day


For Valentines Day this year, Brad planned everything so it was a total surprise that night what we were doing. We got to his house and he had a table set up with candles and fancy silverware and the works. We made dinner together, spaghetti, and ate it at his little table. He wanted to set it up outside on the top of the mountain, but it was too cold. After dinner he took me up the mountain where he wanted to have dinner and brought a blanket so we could look at the stars.
We gave each other presents, I got him a really cute hockey patterned fleece blanket because he plays hockey :)
Finally we came back to his house and decorated cookies and hung out with his little sisters until he had to take me home.
Keeper? I think so :)

Hoopcoming




Brad's school had their Hoopcoming dance, but none of his friends wanted to go, so a big group of us went to dinner at Cheesecake Factory dressed up in fancy clothes instead. After dinner we walked around Keirland Commons for a while and froze our butts off. Everyone stared at us because we were a big group of teenagers in formal clothes wandering around the stores. Lots of old ladies stopped us to tell us how darling we looked and to ask if we were going to the "Junior Senior Prom," so we would explain to them that prom wasn't for a few more months lol. Since we were all so cold we decided to go back to Brad's house and hop in the hot tub until curfew.
I had fun getting to know Brad's friends better and hanging out with his crowd. Awesome night!

Ariel and Kelton




So the weekend before Ariel left, Kelton and I told her that we were going ice skating. For the whole week before, she was sooooo excited about her and Kelton doubling with me and Brad to go ice skating and she would not stop talking about it. All the while, Kelton and I were planning a surprise going away party for her! The night finally came, and Brad and I picked her up and told her we were on our way to pick up Kelton. When we got to his house, she jumped out and ran to the door to get him. He aswered after she rang, and pulled her inside for a hug. When he spun her around a bunch of our friends were waiting on Kelton's stairs to surprise her! She was so surprised she almost started crying. It was amazing. Kelton and I were pretty proud that we kept it under wraps for a whole weekwithout her findingo out.
She was a bit sad that she didn't actually get to go ice skating with Kelton before she left, but all's well that end's well, because we took her ice skating the next Monday when we were off of school :)

Ice Skating

Ice skating... for real this time!















Snowbowl

Brad, Tyler, Lauren, Jordin, and I made a quick Saturday trip up to snowbowl to do some snowboarding, or skiing in Brad's case. It was perfect weather, and an awesome trip!



We saw AJ and Kelton up there too, so we hung out with them for a bit






Me about to do my first tailgrab. It was epic.
