#13- Citrus Heights, CA

Mom called Kendall's mission president this morning, and he let us know that her first area is Citrus heights! We are all very excited. Citrus Heights is approx. 505 miles from homedale, which is 8 hrs and 20 min.... So not too far! :D
I had a picture to go with this post, but I'm posting from my phone and I can't figure out how to upload an image from here.
Oh, and sorry I've been slacking.... I've been in Portland for spring break!

#12- More Funny Pictures

Hahahaha, I'm gonna send these ones to Kendall, just to give her a good laugh! :)

#11- Funny Pictures

Every day, Kendall and I would sit on our phones downstairs both being silent. I would look up funny pictures, and send them to her, when she was sitting right next to me. Two of the funniest ones are these. They make me laugh EVERY TIME.

#10- Snuggie Texts

So to start off... Kendall has almost been gone for 3 weeks... THREE WEEKS! Amy, you were right... time flies! Hopefully it will continue doing this, so 18 months will be over in no time :)
Okay, now for the snuggie texts. So, one day, Kendall texted me during school saying how she couldn't stop laughing, and she was home alone. All day I wondered what she couldn't stop laughing about! When I got home, she showed me the snuggie texts.. The first time I read it, I kinda thought it was dumb, like I didn't laugh at all. Then, I read it with Sarah Maggard, and oh man she laughed so hard.. and for those of you who don't know her, her laugh is VERY contagious. So, then I kinda laughed. THEN, I read it at school, with one of my teachers... My teacher was laughing so hard, and I thought I was going to die! Ever since then, I can't handle myself when I read it. I laugh sooo hard, and sit there crying because it's just too funny. If you want to read it, go here:

or if that doesn't work, go to google, type in "it just gets stranger snuggie texts" and it will be the first link on the search page.

So, while Kendall is gone, I decided I'm going to send her a snuggie, that says "1+1=furrrrrever." Once you read the texts, you'll understand. I'm sure it'll give her a good laugh, so I'm way excited!

#9- Basketball

This last Wednesday, I had my basketball banquet. A lot of things happened at that. One big thing is that Holtry won't be our coach anymore, which is soooo sad. He is now our athletic director! Then, on Saturday, I went to the Bam Jam (a big basketball tournament) with the Romriell's to watch Jordan play. Pretty much, I loved it, because I enjoy basketball sooooo much! And I used to play basketball with Kendall AT LEAST once a week at the church. Oh how I miss that, and miss her! Love you Kendall :)

#8- Spanish

A couple months ago, I took a Spanish test, and got my highest score of the year, which was a 90%. I always complain how hard Spanish 2 is, so this was a pretty good accomplishment haha. When I got the 90%, Kendall hung it up on the fridge...



Well today, I got a 100% on my test! A test I didn't even study for, I was gone for a week while they studied in class for it, and a test that I thought I was going to COMPLETELY fail. But nope, I got 100%, which was the highest in the class. NOW I feel accomplished :D

#7- Fighting!

So, Kendall and I rarely have fights... I can think of two serious fights (which get dangerous, punching each other and throwing each other on the ground...). But we mess around and "play fight" quite often. Every day, I'd say! Since day one. Here's some proof :)

#6- Persuasive Speech

So, about a year ago, Kendall gave a no texting while driving speech in her college speech class. Her teacher told her she did really well, and she got 100% for it! Since I knew that I was going to have to be giving a persuasive speech in my speech class, I asked her if I could use it. Today, we got assigned to do our persuasive speech. I'm so excited to give my speech... I didn't do any work, and hopefully it turns out as good as her teacher said it was!!

#5- I love letters!

Today we got our first letter. It just made my day, to come home and see a letter from Kendall on the counter. As I read through it, it made me happy to see that she is doing EXTREMELY well and hasn't been homesick at all, which is really surprising. She has seen some people we know, and met awesome new people! Glad she is loving it so much.

#4- Skype

So, Kendall and Ali used to Skype a lot... Have Skype dates, ya know. I always thought it was weird.. Until, one day I decided to try it out. Shelby, Kendall, Ali, and I all skyped. I won't lie, it was pretty fun. And Ali still owes me a Skype Date, for my birthday. Hahaha.




As you can see, the second picture kind of goes along with my #2 post :)

#3- Footy PJs

We like to have footy pajama parties. Nuff said.

#2- Catch Me When I Fall

Kendall often liked to embarass me. Whether it was kissing me on the cheek when all my friends were around, or jumping on my back and yelling "I'm riding the bull!" She always seemed to find a way to embarass me, but I don't think it has ever made me mad, because all I can do is laugh! Here's a picture of us at Provo Beach Resort. Kendall thought I was gonna fall, so she catched me at the end!

#1- Our Last Picture

To start off, I had a very rough time when Kendall left. I knew it was coming, so it was no surprise. But I still cried for hours. It's okay, though, because I know it's all for the better. And I love my sister, so I'm proud of her and the decision she made. Here's a couple of pictures from when she left.
