im excited for:

• CHICAGO: November 15-24th, Dad.Mom.ME.Celeste.Heather.Bryan all get to go to Chicago to help Uncle Paul with his display in the Chicago Botanic Gardens. mom dad bryan and i went last year, but its going to be so much fun to have everyone there this time! last time i got quite sick so im hoping to be at my best so i can help out a lot! i have been to chicago 2 times, but i am always open for suggestions, so if you have a must see, or must eat at, please let me know!!!
  
• THANKSGIVING: November 27th, just a few days after we get back from Chicago our house will be filled with our family! i love it! last year we had 32 people show up... this year i think we have 50 on the list! its going to be so great!!!
• ALCHEMY: i am taking a class 2 days a month up in SLC. it is an Alchemist class. mom and dad took this class a while back. im so excited for the class so far! i missed the first class due to Holland, but week 2 went well. im already counting the days till next months class. they suggested i read the book The Alchemist, i really really liked the book. im sure ill be reading it again soon. it was a quick read and very touching. the book reminded me of The Little Prince. anyway, the class is wonderful, its filled with the most amazing people. i am so glad i have the chance to meet them all, and cant wait for our next classes!!!
• BRACES: it is scheduled tomorrow that i get my bottom braces removed. how thrilling! so after pulling my front bottom tooth out, i was given braces to move the teeth together. it seems to have done the trick, and now im ready to have the braces removed! im quite excited. although i didnt mind them too much... im almost a bit worried they are taking them off too soon. but then i remember its been more than one year.. so we will see. but i will take some pics of my wonderful teeth before and after the braces are gone.
• 24 ON THE 24th: August 24th 2009 i will be turning 24 years old. and because i feel like it, i am making my birthday a big one! i am using the 24/24 as an excuse. im not sure what i want to do yet, i have a lot of ideas[cruise, disney world, california beach trip] but i am open for options. i have been thinking about it since my last birthday. im so excited! there are so many different fun things to do! ok ok, i know my birthday isnt till august, but i really want it to be a big deal, and i do like planning, so...yep!!!! [if you have any birthday suggestions let me know!]
• 30 ROCK: yes, i love 30 rock! Tina Fey just makes me happy- i own season one, and watch it all the time. season 2 is also out, and thanks to netflix watch it now, i have seen season 2 over and over as well. season 3 is on air now, thrusdays right after The Office. i am so thrilled!!! i would have to say my favorite character is Kennith, the NBC page. but really the show hasnt dissapointed me yet! WAHOO for 30 rock!

HOORAY FOR EXCITEMENT!!!
