New Song I Wrote

IF ONLY


Verse 1:

Me and you, and us forever

Maybe soon, or maybe never

We live and we dream, we hope and we scheme

But our plans, don’t last forever


Chorus:

If only, if only, if only life were this easy

If only, God would show me, where we would be

But faith, is what I cannot see

If only


Verse 2:

I have my plans, what my life is for

But so do you, God you have more

You made me, you love me, your ways are above me

I can’t wait to see, what you have in store


Bridge:

If only things could stay, stay this way

But you give me strength, for each new day

Lord, be my guide, cuz this faith is blind

Take your will, and make it mine

Kissing Bridge OPENING DAY!!

Kissing Bridge (the ski resort I snowboard at) opens TOMORROW!! I can't wait! I saw these pics on their website and it got me sooo stoked.


Although there will only be one or two hills open, I heard from my inside source that they will be setting up a rail or two at the top of Holly. Something about "kids not having anything to do and therefor getting into trouble" haha. Sad but true. But that made me happy that we'll have stuff to do on just a couple hills.

Twist and Coalshute should be open any day which probably means more rails. At least I hope!

Blizzard


Almost 3 feet of snow in the last 3 days two days! Yeah, I'm in heaven. On Thursday before we got all the snow we only had about 4 inches. That didn't stop me and my friends from breaking out the snowboards though! I geared up and drove down the road to my friends house.


We built a jump and were hitting it. Then we started looking for something to do some slides on when I spotted the picnic table in his front yard. We built a ramp to it and started droppin some sliders.

As I was hitting it I was thinking to myself "Man, if I go just a little faster I could air completely over the whole table." They managed to get a couple vids of me so here ya go!

"Scrooge"

This weekend was AMAZING!

Firstly, I passed my road test on Thursday so I am now a legal, junior-licensed driver. Which really opens up possibilities for me.

On Friday, I went to my friends party and that was super cool.

Then Saturday afternoon I headed out by myself to the house of my best friend from camp. He lives an hour and a half away from where I live so I don't get to see him very often. So, as you can imagine... I was pretty excited.


When I got there I headed off with part of his family to a big theater production they are in with Family Life Ministries. It was a musical of the story "A Christmas Carol" It was AMAZING!! He and his sister were both in it and were GREAT!! I was amazed.


It was a dinner theater actually and I sat at a table with a bunch of friends from the camp I worked at this summer. It was great to see them since the last time I saw them was about 4 months ago.


After the play I went home with my friend and spent the night and after talking until 3 in the morning, went to church with his family on Sunday. Then spent another night and drove home Monday morning (my birthday) after driving him and his sister to school. :)


KEEP IT EXTREME,
I'M OUT † †

Practice Makes..... Felonies

I'm taking my road test on Thursday so I've been working on my parallel parking a lot lately. Usually I just practice in my driveway, but I wanted to practice in town with actual curbs. So we took two vehicles down town and drove through the entire town trying to find a side street with curbs but with no luck. (Small town)

Finally we found a street by the park with curbs! We were so happy that we found the PERFECT place to practice that we failed to notice something kind of important... the "no parking" signs.

We practiced for quite some time and were just rapping it up when we noticed them. My mom and I kind of laughed and said "Good thing no cops came by."

We had to leave the van we were practicing on there and go pick up my brother Erik from the library. So Mom was going to move the van to the parking lot of the town park, BUT, she was reaching in a drawer in the car to find some advil for her headache.. and sliced her finger open on an open razor that was laying amidst the junk. So I had to park the van while she waited in the other vehicle.

I parked it and as I was walking back, a cop comes driving up the road and looking around! Right where my van had been not two minutes ago! haha I just gave him the "whats up" head-nod and jumped in the van and booked it outa there! It was pretty funny.
