So its been a few days, and by days i mean weeks.  I feel weird even writing in this its been so long. So all I've been doing is working. Oh and babysitting 4 kids for the past 3 weeks! UGH! They went home today so I'm kinda relieved to tell ya the truth.  Just gets kinda stressful. Wow this is the reason I don't write in here, I have nothing to write about. The only people I've done anything with this whole summer is people I was at school with and hung out with all year or people that are going to be at UNI this year. It's like I don't know, everythings so different. I have only gone to one Remedy concert this whole summr and that was waaaaay back at the beginning of June. Its really sad. I just miss last summer a lot and being with Liz and going to concerts every week and Triennium. This summer has just kind of been an emotional rollar coster for me, just kinda weird. I have had some fun tho too. For the 4th Laura came to LeMars and Me Liz and Laura went out to eat in Sioux City at Applebees. That was fun. The we went over to Muhm's and then to Rachelle's and went swimming. That was pretty fun. Then the next day we went up to the Lakes. We had a lot of fun that weekend. Boating and just hangin out. It was great to get away for the weekend. That was pretty much my excitment of the summer haha. Now here I am with one more full day at home. I am soooooo excited! This year is gonna be really fun. Me, Liz, Laura and Michelle are all living together. And Amanda will just be right down the hall!  I can't wait to see everyone. It will be good to see Megan and Sarah again, I'm so excited to hang out with them again. Oh and I'll get to meet their new roomates too. I dunno I guess I don't really have too much else. Gotta get back to watching Laguna Beach!

HaPpY BiRtHdAy KaYlA!!!

Kayla,
I cannot believe you are finally 18! I can't believe it. How did we get so old? I'm almost 20! All I can think of are our days taking all the pots out of the cupboard and playing in it when we were still in our diapers. And going in the truck with dad, getting barbie hair all over, stopping to get McDonalds happy meals and crying over getting a boy toy, or crying about not getting your potato oles haha. Ohhh man, the good 'ol days when we had no worries. Or remember scribbling on eachothers pictures we colored really good bc we were mad at each other? Wow, way too funny. But all the stupid little fights we had, scratching eachother and pulling eachothers hair are definately diminished by all the great times we've had. I couldn't have asked for a better sister/friend to grow up with. Going through middle school and high school we just got even closer and I'm glad that we always had eachother to lean on through hard times, which we both know we've had our fair share of. It was nice to have someone to talk to through all the silly middle school and high school drama. And not to mention someone to share clothes with! You are one of the funniest people I've ever met and I'm glad we can always make eachother laugh even if we're crying. You and dad are the only people that have been there my whole life and I could not thank God enough for both of you. You know I will be there for you anytime you need anything. I'm so thankful that I have you for a sister and best friend. I Love You!

Love Always, Tali
