By the way....

7 pounds lighter this month thanks to healthy eating!! :D

Camping

Usually, you wouldnt take me for the camper kind of girl. Well this weekend, I was. The church held a father/kid campout at Santee State Park. That place is really amazing, super beautiful and lots of fun! The only downer was the 36 degree nights! It turned out alright in the end though. My dad and I also brought my friend Martie with us. Her dad has recently passed last year and my dad and I wanted to make her feel okay about it. Seems liekshe had a beyond awesome time! Just look at these amazing pictures of this beautiful and fun park. :)

Busy, Busy, Busy

Hey everyone! Sorry about the lack in blog posts. Sophomores get SO much homework! Just got back from lake lure this weekend. We went to the Dirty Dancing festival there. It was a blast! I had so much fun staying in the beautiful mountains, and dancing and enjoying the festival with my parents, and my best friend, Aimee-Jane. We had so much fun and I can't wait till next year:)

Today is a Wednesday and also a half day at school! Whoop!

I already just can't wait to get home. Hahaha. Sitting here with Elias, as he eats a banana and drinks a "juice." This weekend I am volunteering to work at my church for an event with the middle school kids. It's called the All-Nighter. Hence the title, you stay up all night and don't sleep one bit. It is kind of like a lock in only we go different places.

So guess what? ONLY 6 DAYS UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY! Usually a normal person would not tell you until the day of, but since I'm still technically a child, I anticipate every second:) I'll give you the details on my birthday party soon;) Love you lots!

Jogging:)

Hello world:) How was your Sunday? Mine was pretty awesome. Started the day out with church, then came home with my beautiful sister and her three adorable children. Then the rest of the family came over and we had a big play date for like a half an hour. It was still so much fun. I love seeing all their smiling faces! My sister and I made a huge accomplishment tonight. I ran .7 miles without stopping! Which may seem not a lot to you, marathon runners, but to me it was a lot of work. Then Jessi, oh my gosh let me tell you she ran more than 2.5 miles with only stopping once for like 10 sec.! How amazing is she? I would say pretty dang amazing. Tomorrow is Monday. Oh well we might as well put on our smiling faces and go to work or school and just try to have fun with it! Hahaha. Well you could always think about Monday as 4 more days 'till Friday! Mom, Jessi, Dad, and I are all watching the Emmy Awards right now. Were deciding that there are a lot of disappointments tonight. But I guess its all right, it's pretty funny tonight. Well off to hit the hay soon. Goodnight!

Babysitting

I babysit alot for my neighbor. She has two girls, one 10 and the other 7, and her little boy is 2 or 3. I'm not really sure i'm ashamed to say! I babysat for them today for an hour now tonight I am going to babysit them for 4 hours! But we always have fun with our dance parties, and watching movies, and we play all sorts of games. I have to leave in 5 minutes but I just thought I would keep you updated!

Football Game

So, tonight was the first football home game at my high school. We won 31 to 0!! Well at least that was the score when I left. The game could probably go on for another hour or two but I was so tired and it was late so me and my friend came home:) So the thing at my high school games is no one actually watches them. All everyone does is hang around in this field in between the bleachers and the snack bar and talk. But its all good because I have a lot of fun talking and hanging out with my friends. So I didn't get to sit down the whole time and I am so exhausted. Blah. That is the sound you make when your tired. Ha ha! I guess I ate pretty healthy today, this morning I had a bagel (which normally every morning my dad makes me eggs and bacon) and then for lunch I had Pirate's Booty White Cheddar Popcorn which is delicious and healthy! Thanks to my sister Jessi:) Then for dinner I had a not so healthy two pieces of pizza. That was only because I had to eat something fast before I went to the game. Even though that is no excuse to eat pizza. And so that was basically my day! Sorry not very exciting:( Nighty Night!!

Get to know me:)

Hello all, I plan to vent to this blog about troubles and successes through high school and trying to eat healthy. My name is Caroline and I am a sophomore at my local high school:) I am at the moment 14 turning 15 on September the 28th. I just recently started my new school year this August and so far 10th grade is a lot harder than its cracked up to be. But it's alright because I have lots of friends to help me through it! I currently weigh...well, lets just say not what a 15 year old is supposed to weigh. So with the help of my sister and wonderful mother I plan to eat much healthier and exercise on a regular bases. Just the other day my mother, sister, and I went to spin class. (No, it is not an actual class you spin in circles in.) Have you ever been on those exercise bikes? Have you ever been on one for an hour without being able to stop? Well, welcome to spin class. I went for my first time on Tuesday and it actually wasn't that bad. Every one says I did really great and I can't wait 'till next week! If you don't already visit my sister's very popular blog,http://pizzatoquinoa.blogspot.com/, please do! It is amazing and I am so lucky to have her as my sister. Don't worry Katie I didn't forget about you:) Katie is my other, and just as cool, sister. She is older and can always give me the right advice. (I love you!) I hope this blog will really help me get through it all, high school, getting healthy, and any other problems I run in to. Well, gotta run! Hope to hear for you and don't be afraid to comment and tell me what you think:)
