Hey, I know I haven't posted in forever, but I thought I'd give a quick update and tell everyone Hi and Merry Christmas!
So..... We left Missouri on Dec. 20th to come here (to Idaho) -I'm not using the abbreviations because one of my friends went 'What the heck is ID? why is she going to Identification, and WHERE IS THAT?!??!?' She was totally clueless, it was funny. We had a wonderful Christmas and I will be going to a New Years Eve dance with cousins and our Black-Smithing Prince (younger brother) It should be really fun. There will be 7 stakes and we will be at the YMCA buliding.
Oh, also Friday the 16th, I went on an actual date. As in, He didn't ditch me. I'll have to tell you about it later, but it was really fun, and he is really nice. Oh, he's tall, has red hair and is 18 will be 19 in Jan.
Love you all!!

Fun Stuff!
The downer to seminary Wednesday. I couldn't remember whether or not our teacher had said "Do the work from Ex. 19-22" or "Ex. 19-32" So, to be on the safe side, Angus and I did to 32. Well, it being hunting season, we've been busy, and Angus didn't really have time to spare for seminary, but he did it anyway. when we got into the lesson, Angus got the impression that, well, we only needed to do to 22. So he asked Suzie... and she said 22. Unfortunately for me, I was sitting next to him, and he wasn't very happy with me. I'd been kinda cringing away from his "I WILL GET YOU LATER" expression when I heard the door open. I turned to see Brother Tervort, our stake seminary teacher, and Suzie's 'boss'. Wonderful, right? to top it off, the only free seat was next to me. haha. oops. It was okay though, because I'm on pretty good terms with him. he was simply grinning when he sat down. The rest of seminary went good.
Anyway dearies, this is how hunting season goes around here. People like to hunt for the sport, but don't care for the meat. SO. When they get a deer, they drop it off here because we passed the word around that we'd take any they didn't want, because we like deer meat, and we make steaks, and stew meat out of it. Well... 2 years ago, we got 5 deer. That was pretty good. Last year we got 7. Even better. Now, we've got great equipment, and Dad said that we were ready for this hunting season. Well, H.S. goes till about next Tues, and so far we've gotten about 19 deer. I've kinda lost count. Oh well. Life is life.
I'm tired, so I'm gonna stop typing now. Ttfn my dears! (yes, there has been pun intended in this...)

Duh....
I just remembered. I called my blog Alice Iceland because I made it in the winter. Duh... Anyway, I remembered because this morning, it's all of 55 degrees, and we are freezing, and can see our breath. So, I feel kinda silly now. oh well.

Times Change....
I used to say that winter was my least favorite season. Now, I say, I like winter. You can ADD layers, but in summer, you can't SUBTRACT layers without becoming immodest. SO... Anyway, it's getting colder, and I'm getting older. Who knows? Maybe I'll play in the snow this year.. (NOT!!!)
Quick sum of happenings:
Lisa will be Due in March.
I'm making a bunch of things for Calamity Jane days.
Angus and I are doing Seminary this year.
I'm still working on Math.
Kyle will be 2 in a couple of weeks.
Angus hates my music.
Kyle climbed on Angus while Angus was passing the Sacrament yesterday. - Angus had been passing on the side, right across from our row, and Kyle saw him, and Mom wasn't quick enough to catch him, so Kyle got Angus.
I'll be working on my book soon.
I'm still working with my friend on a book. - She writes one chapter as her character, I write one chapter as MY character. Really different, but fun.
We had a new family move in to our branch with a 16 and a 15 year old girls, and a little sis. in primary.
I'm doing a sewing display at a talent show in October.
I miss you all!
Love ya!

Dating: The weird, or normal way? You tell me. :s
The Date......Ouch. -Oh, Rezielle and the White Knight had been trying to set this up since Girls camp....
Umm... participants: White Knight/Rezielle, McMission/Diva Queen, Prince Charming and Me, and added a week before the actual date, Mr. Knowledge/ Squeakers.
Who flaked out for good reason: McMission- he's going on his mission soon- it was in 2 weeks last Thurs.
Who flaked out for NO apparent good reason, in my oppionion. (Well, GOOD but, he could've known about it at least a few days before, so he could've canceled ANY time except the morning of.) : Prince Charming.
Who didn't go because she didn't want to be a fifth wheel, then had something going on: Diva Queen.
Who flaked out without EVEN CALLING: a friend who said he was free for that night: Sir English (Boston, that is...)
Who went anyway, despite having TWO dates flake on her: Me.
The story behind....
OK, I spent the night at Rezielle's house, (oh Rezielle and Squeakers are sisters) Wed night, after spending Sun thru Wed at a friends house (she'd had surgery on her arm, and needed help getting things done, so I went over there for those few days..) and Wed morn Rezielle called me to say that McMission flaked. I understand WHY, but he could've done it a FEW WEEKS OR DAYS BEFORE!!! Any-who, so he flaked and our Diva Q. - hey, I'm changing that. cuz it wasn't very imaginative of me- to Suzie Q. Again, anyway, Suzie Q. wouldn't go cuz she didn't want to be the fifth wheel.
Thurs. morn, White Knight called Rezielle (oh it was White Knight who told Rezielle that McMission flaked.) So,he called Rezielle to tell her that Prince Charming flaked (oh did I tell you that McMission and Prince Charming are brothers?) Prince Charming flaked- because according to him, his Dads surprise b-day party was that night. I think that he knew about the party at least a couple days ahead, and could've called before.
So White Knight (now do you see WHY I call him that?) Called some of the date-able guys who lived in the area, and asked if they were available for that night. All of them said no, except one.Sir English.
So we went to where we were having the date.
Rezielle and White Knight went upstairs (we were in the basement) to make the pizza's. I stayed downstairs with Mr. Knowledge and Squeakers. A while later, I went upstairs to see how the pizza's were going, and the White Knight said they were almost done, and Sir English's grandfather was currently trying him. Joy.
I went downstairs, played Uno and Triominos with Mr.Knowledge and Squeakers, and then the White Knight & Rezielle came down with the pizza. We ate, then played Apples to Apples. Rezielle won. The first round, I was the judge, and the category was 'Lovely'. Someone threw in Reading Books, and I said some knows me really well. Everyone called it playing the judge. It was our White Knights card. Of course.
Any-who, after that, we watched Tangled. it was about 11 when we left. The date started at 6:30. lots of fun, but REALLY flaky dates.
Oh, there are going to be EIGHT STAKES at Girls Camp next year, and the Theme is BFF 'Be Forever Faithful' We have to turn in Registration by Sept. 10th. How much money we have to turn in by Sep. 30? -I think- we still don't know if it's $40 or $90 - If we want to go. Talk about crazy.
I was so happy today. We have a small family -all girls the oldest is 12- who come to church every now and then. Sweetie came to YW and took a camp form. She doesn't know if she can go, but she would like to. I think it'd be great.
I know I haven't posted in forever, and I still need to get Youth Conference pix on my blog, but, Thats a small sum of my life lately. Love you all!

Btw, it was kinda a toss up as to which bit me more. The spiders or the Misquotes.
and as for the name, I think its amusing that Alice in Wonderland won because that's who I was originally named after.

Now I Can Honestly Say......
I SURVIVED!!! CAMP WAS GREAT!!!! And I'm not that tired anymore. YAY!!!
Now, What to say???
Alright. Here goes. I had lots of fun, I was a YCL (Youth Camp Leader) this year, and I was with our second level, and even though we had a few problems, it went great.
I spent a lot of time with old friends, and made a lot of new ones. It was really cool.
As for Pix... I don't know if I'm gunna be able to post any.
The BEST PART OF CAMP!!!! Now, what could that be? The Faith Walk? Nope. That was amazing, and so spiritually filling though. The pool?? NOT! I didn't even go swimming once. The Leaders? sorry, but no. They were AWESOME though. The Songs? NO!! they didn't sing a bunch of different ones, so I have about 4 REALLY ANNOYING TUNES IN MY HEAD!! they were cute at the time though.
No. None of those thing were the Best Part Of Camp. The best part was having my mom there. She was called as Camp Director, but went as Camp Nurse. I was able to spend time with her, actually, I spent a LOT of time with her, because my main post with our 2nd level was with the ones who weren't feeling good. It was a position that had a few bumps, but I got to know a few of our girls really well.
WHAT HAPPENED WHEN WE GOT HOME???? not much. I love having LaWana back in the house. I got home, and my bed was COVERED IN CLOTHES!!!! I had Brieanna clear it off, and then I went a laid down. I don't remember anything after that. According to LaWana, she came in MAYBE 5 minutes later, and I was dead to the world. And NO, I didn't stay up til all hours last night of camp. Nope. My entire tent of 8 (originally 7, but my friends sister slept with us the last night.- at least I THINK it was the last night....) totally tuned out the entire world, and went to sleep by 11:30. Hey, don't laugh. Yeah, it was late, but for camp it was EARLY!!!! anywho.... Love you all!
Oh yeah real quick... There was another girl who's name was Celena, and her ONLY nickname was Nina. I answer to that as well, AND we had a girl who's name was NITA.. Fun right? SOO.. MADDIE!!!! I'm so glad you named me Alice, cuz I went by that at camp. I'm going to post polls on the side again. Somethings from camp you choose the result. Luv ya!

This is ring set 1.-Btw, 'Ring Set' doesn't mean it's gunna be 2 rings, but some will be a SET and some will be single.- Anyway, I got my shirt, and it looks totally awesome!!! except, it'll probably take a while to get pix. 1: There's a wedding. 2: There's camp. 3: The camera's basically dead right now.

Right?
I've got a request.... PLEASE TELL ME YOUR FAVE SONGS!!! then I'll put them in an order, and I'll do that for my playlist.
Thanks!
Love you all!

That's what I say to the kids when they say WHY??!? It can get obnoxious. anywho... I decorated a Tee today. I'll have to take pix. what was cool? My friend Rezielle and I decorated them exactly the same- that part we planned- what wasn't planned was the fact that both our Tee's were a light pink with a vee neck, and fit us perfectly. it's really cool. again, anywho.
Lisa had bridal pix taken today, and I got to watch. She looked like a beautiful princess just waiting for her prince. -really, I swear she did...- then we went to a thrift store, then walmart, then home, then to mutual.

I'm gonna be swapping wall papers til Camp and wedding are done. It'll be the same 2 wall papers, but every few days, I'll flip back and forth between them. Just a little more fun!
Some silly facts....
Brieanna and I like to watch Barbie movies -B actually likes them, I like some of the music, and playing them while Taylor and Angus are around, so I can annoy them - it's REALLY funny, cuz they'll make fun of the movies, and pretend it's killing them. anyway, the point of this? I'm gunna tell you how many Barbie movies there are and the names. Also, the next 2 to come out. (I'm just bored right now....) SO! there are 19 out and 2 more coming that I know of so far. The first one came out in 2001 -I only know this cuz of Wiki.- (yeah, I spend a lot of time on Wiki and IMDB) anywho in order the B movies are- oh and 'B' stands for barbie. Obviously.... and the * means that it's a series...and ** means I haven't seen it (yet)

I Did It Again... (sigh)
Okay, I admit it. I'm kinda obsessed with changing my blog to suit my mood. -Speaking of, I need to fix my playlist, Lisa won't be happy if the blog's sayin' wedding, and the song's goin' Just A Dream (for those who don't pay attention, he dies in the song....) anyway, if you have something you'd like to hear when you open my blog, just tell me and I'll see if I can get it on the list.
As we are getting closer to the wedding, we're doing Sewing Bee's and getting haircuts, and- uh-oh..... I gotta get moving on my 2nd year gifts, and make sure I have everything for camp. not cool. anywho, things are goin good, just busy. miss you all.
Hope you like the new look!

I Forgot...
I promised Grandma that I would tell her how I compiled my cookbook. Well.... I made it into a scrapbook. We have all this scrapbook stuff that's been around for years, and we haven't done anything with it, so I decided to use it. I'll have to take some pix, but it's a black book (no, don't get any funny ideas just because it's black...) 12X12, and I used an arrangement of colors.
The real question here.... Did I use all the recipes??? the answer: NO!
I got so many recipes, I used MAYBE half of them. So, I'm going to take a three ring binder, decorate it, and do a scrapbook in it with the rest of the recipes... when I find time.
What's going on right now? My room is under construction, so is our new laundry room. My room: I have to much stuff around the edges, so that when I finally get the room clean, half an hour later its a wreck. Laundry Room: I'm still working on getting all the clothes washed. -Never ending battle, I know..- anyway, I'm also making headbands for the 2nd years who will be at camp. I will probably be known as Alice at camp because there's a girl who will be in the 2nd years who's name is Celina- yeah, it's spelled the same way.- so, instead of being confusing, I'll just go by my nickname.
Anyway, I'm havin' fun over here. Miss you all!
~Alice~
Oh yeah, did I tell you what I'm gonna make MY wedding bouquet out of? Lilies and Roses.. you should look it up on google images!
Ta Ta!
~Alice~~
The real question here.... Did I use all the recipes??? the answer: NO!
I got so many recipes, I used MAYBE half of them. So, I'm going to take a three ring binder, decorate it, and do a scrapbook in it with the rest of the recipes... when I find time.

Did You Know.......
That we had a lot of fun Saturday? We'd had to reschedule Lisa's Bridal Shower, so we did it Saturday. The first game we played was 'How well do you know the Bride?' anyway it was fifteen questions about the bride, and I won. can you believe it? I won against my mom and Brieanna. LaWana didn't count since she knew all the answers. (She did the game, so she'd typed all Lisa's answers into the computer.) So I won. I answered 12 of 15 questions correctly. Mom answered 9, and Brieanna answered about 4.... Then we played a really funny game...
Cheyenne Blackburn, L&L's best friend was helping LaWana with the games. She came up with a really fun one.
Cheyenne asked Sam (Lisa's fiancé) 14 questions. He answered them. Lisa had to answer the same way he did. The penalty if she didn't: she had to eat a big gum ball. She answered about 5 right. FIVE OUT OF FOURTEEN!! She wasn't happy. For the last question, Cheyenne had found a super big gum ball. so big, Cheyenne hadn't been able to fit one in her mouth, LaWana wouldn't be able to, and I'm not sure I'd be able to. anyway, Lisa answered the last one wrong. She was able to fit the gum in her mouth... She refused to chew it though. it was really funny.
After the Bridal Shower, Mom, LaWana, Lisa, Cheyenne, Brieanna, Elora, Kyle, and I went to the city. -City being Liberty and Kansas City. We usually go to both when we head down that way.- it was fun, we got back late though, so Elora and Kyle were grumpy. anyway, dates are closing in. The wedding and camp will be soon. Love you all!

Life's pretty much normal. I have books that are re-reads, and Taylor is going to pick up books today, so I can have them tomorrow when I see him. fun right? Tomorrow, I should be getting two of my personal progress ribbons. I've completed Individual Worth, and Knowledge. I am currently working on my Virtue. Oh, and for those who know, I'm still working on my book. sorta.... when I have time. anyway, life IS normal, so right now I'm kinda tired, but I'm doing good. Luv ya all!

THIS is my NORMAL???
When my mom was talking to a sister who's doing camp, she told her our busy schedule for the time around camp. y'know, Friday's the wedding, Saturday the reception, Sunday say goodbye to family, Monday- we don't know if it's just packing or going to camp yet,- Tuesday we either go to camp or are at camp. and some time in that time, we're supposed to be all ready for camp.
How many of you read the Extra Smile in the New Era? The one I'm talking about was years ago but still, it applies. OK, it showed this pic of a Bishop welcoming everyone to church, and his words trail off as he welcomes moms and YW back from camp. it show a pic of the moms and yw, all sound asleep where they sit. I'll see if I can find it so I can post it. it's pretty funny. well, we're hitting deadlines, and it's going crazy. not much more then norm though.
Prom was cool. the dancing was OK, but there were only 2 slow songs. anyway, the Mystery was so funny. the girl was about to be arrested, when the Janitor came up and confessed. he said something like this " I've worked here for about 12 months. you learn a lot of secrets. I know all of these people had reason and means to kill him, but I can't let an innocent person go to jail. it'd been raining, and the victim had been out smoking. he realized that he was going to be late, and took the stairs 2 at a time. well, the stairs were still slippery from rain. he slipped, and hit his head on a paint can, causing blunt trauma. I ran for help, but by the time it arrived, 'The Handsome Jack Sparrow' had already died. I'm sorry for not coming up earlier, but I was scared. I hope you can all forgive me for the chaos it caused." And that was that. an ACCIDENT!! how funny. the entire thing was hilarious.
Love you all!

Books, Books, Where's the Books??
Lol.
My friend asked me 'WHAT BOOKS TO READ??? I can't think of anything else! Help!!' Where have I heard that one? How many times have I said it??
anyway, I like Julia Golding, she writes the Companion Series, (and another which I haven't read, but I've heard its good.)
Anne McCaffery - some are good, some are kinda boring.
Kristen Britain wrote the Green Rider Series- it's awesome!- btw, I'm sitting here racking my brain for authors while my ENTIRE LIST OF AUTHORS, MUSIC, all my Pix and fave sites, and Movie are all on the other computer which CRASHED!! soo... here's some others.
Justin Somper- Vampirates. Now there's a series to sink your teeth into, just don't drown.
Michelle Sagara - ONLY THE CHRONICLES OF ELANTRA!!!! yeah, they're put out my Luna- one of the most infamous immoral pub inc. But other then her occasional cussing (the minor ones that you usually hear people say) yeah I know none of them are MINOR but compared to the others, the ones she says kinda are- lost track anywho, other then that there's ONE brush of lips in BOOK 3! no 'gooey romance' (as my brothers call it) before or after that. I haven't read any other book by her. don't want to either.
Jenna Blacks 'Faeriewalker' ONLY- don't even THINK about touching another of her books. not pretty.
Oh you can't forget Tamora Pierce- totally cool author about medieval times with magic. fun fun fun. look in wiki for the order in which to read the series' and the books in each series.
OOH!!! also the 'Once Upon a Time' series.- hit wiki again for the entire list, but some of my fave's are 'Midnight Pearls'- Lil' Mermaid- 'Scarlet Moon'- Red Riding Hood- 'Violet Eyes' - Princess and the pea- 'The World above' -Jack and the beanstalk- (It's gotta be my all time fave of all. theres no better telling of that one) 'Belle'- Beauty and the Beast- (duh) and 'Wild Orchid' - Mulan- Awesome!!
also there's Patricia C. Wrede- she writes a hilarious series about an improper princess (no, NOT immoral, just doesn't wanna act like a princess) who runs off to be a Dragons princess, and the King of the enchanted forest. forget about him for the first book, he comes in on the second. soo cute, and will keep you laughing, and sometimes crying.
I have Fifty Billion more I could tell you about, but I won't bore you. (actually, the rest of them are on the other computer) ask about music or movies, you're gonna get about the same length of post. Fave subjects. I'm usually the one to ask in my family.
Have fun!!! Hope this helped Julie!!! Happy Spring -oh I like seeing things turn green, but I HATE ALLERGIES!!!!!!!

Welcome The Wright Family Farm. How may I help you?
Cute right? Well, whatever.. it works. I wonder if I should tell anyone that we're all crazy lunatics, and you'd better be the same if you visit....... Guess what?? WE ARE!!! haha... Everyone's a little crazy in their own way. I mean after all, isn't weird good? there are plenty of people who are famous that I think are insane. Take Vincent Price for instance. A slightly attractive older man, who looks like he belongs in the times that he plays in. For those who don't know, he's an actor. (of course) he plays in movies based in older years. they're also based on some of the most twisted freaky things I've ever seen. I sure as heck couldn't imagine any of it. What sane person would watch freaky stuff like that- one of the one's he plays in is House of Long Shadows- anywho... let alone PLAY in them ACT them out???? Obviously I'm NOT sane, cuz I've seen 2 of his movies. but you get my point. we're all crazy.
I started babbling, so I lost track of what I was saying... soo.... back to the point.
I personally think that we ought-ta call our place the Wright Family Farm for the wedding -when everyone's visiting for it, and the girl's place in Princeton the L&L Hotel (Angus came up for the name for the girls place when my g-parents on my dad's side visited.) sounds cool huh? Whatever. Kyle and Elora were sick for a few days, but they're doing better. Good Grief! I thought they were whiny when they weren't sick. I luv em when they're healthy. -Well, and when they're sick, but they really tend to drive me nuts after a few days. -Whiny, or Sleeping on me either way it get tiring cuz they're always ON ME or Mom. I'd better sign off before this gets any longer. Have a fun lifetime peeps. I plan to live mine to it's fullest then some!! Remember, through hardships, trials, and 'peace' (whether it peace in the home, around you, or in your heart) remember the Lord always.
Luv ya!

LUCY, I'M HOME.......
Well, I spent a few days with a couple in our branch because she'd had surgery, and they needed some help. I really enjoyed the time there, and the time I spent getting to know them better, but I found out a couple of things.... One: I am REALLY glad that we don't have cable. Two: what I thought was quiet, REALLY wasn't. I found out the true definition of that word because there were all of three people and one dog in the house. it got really, REALLY, silent..... oh well. I enjoyed an incredible time getting to know them better, and being able to help her. I'm glad that I'm home now though. Miss you all!

Wow. Really, Wow.
Alrightey.... how long's it been since I last posted? Who cares. Quick update.
At the Multi-Stake Priest/ Laurel - or as Rezielle, Penguin and I call them: The Bacon Timer Patrol
Bacon - Deacons and Beehives (yeah, it's supposed to be Beacon, but we think it more funny as Bacon)
Timer - Teachers and Mia Maids, it's what we could think of
Patrol- Priests and Laurels.
Anywho... I was the ONLY Trenton-Brancher (old g. camp name) to attend, so I went with Gallatin Ward. Then.... I was rescued by my friend, and the fireside was great. During dinner (Pizza, again. Seriously? I had way too much pizza in Feb.) The DJ and his Wife played 'You Belong With Me' by Taylor Swift -for those who don't know.... and almost all the girls stopped eating and sang along with the entire song. really funny, because there was over 500 youth, and the majority of them were girls. then, I said something stupid to Prince Charming, so I was embarrassed. Drama Princess wouldn't let me be though. at the start of one slow song, P.C. was standing a little bit away, and D.P. called out to him and he turned toward us, and no one was blocking her path, so what did she do? SHE SHOVED ME REALLY HARD IN HIS DIRECTION!!!! I almost LANDED IN HIS ARMS!!!! how rude. (and, kinda romantic.) I think she's trying to play match maker because she 'loves' his older brother, and thinks that P.C. and I would make a good couple, oh, she would also like me as a sister-in-law. funny right. oh well. we'll just dream for now because he's sweet on another girl. still... I danced with him twice that night. totally magical.- oh Cinderella's glass slipper must have broken because I stepped on like 5 pieces of glass. kinda hurt too.
Really fun. I'm doing great. oh DRAMA PRINCESS!!! I gave you my EMAIL AND BLOGSPOT FOR A REASON!! USE THEM!!!! pretty please??
Have fun!

Fairytales and Dreams....
Every now and then I'm asked what I want to do. a simply curious question, but what about the thoughts and emotions it stirs? what do I want to do? what am I going to do? Am I going to go into fashion designing, something I'm told I'm good at,something I love? And go on to design and sew my own clothes? Am I going to become a teacher, and spend time with children, those precious souls that will become our future? those kids, that no matter their problems, or who they are, I love? a Therapist, helping someone to become well again, making them smile when they realize that all the pain and training they go through gives them something back that they needed? or helps them get on without it? I know that no matter what I do, I'll always be me, and my family and my Father in heaven will love me no matter what I do. I'll also do it for myself.
I'll be having fun on Sunday. I'm going to a friends house for a sleep-over. Of course, that means I'm leaving Mom and Brieanna with Kyle and Elora for one night. I'll just tell Brieanna that this is simply a test to see how well she'll survive without me and mom for a week. ^.^ aren't I nice?
I like playing with designs and colors, so you'll see my blog change often. red, chocolate, pink hearts, green clovers... we'll see whats next!
ttyl,
Alice

Spring and Fall.

Favorite Scripture.....
After a wonderful Seminary lesson last night, I've got another fave scripture. my first fave is the 13th article of faith (and, before you ask, it was my fave before they used it for the youth theme this year) my new one is D&C 110:3-4
if any of you have paid attention to your scriptures, (I know I have a hard time sometimes) you'll know that D&C 110 is after they dedicated the Kirtland temple. did you know that it only them 3 years to finish it? while it took them 40 years to build the Salt Lake temple. Yeah, there had been complications with the S.L and it was bigger and more elaborate, but for having no construction workers or machines or technology then, that was really fast work on the Kirtland temple. After it was built and dedicated, who was the first visitor? simple: Jesus. verse 3 describes him. Really, you should look it up. verse four is what he first said. He came, and he accepted the Temple as his. the next visitor was Moses, then Elias. they restored the Keys from their dispensations. Elijah was the last visitor. if I remember correctly, he restored the Sealing Power.
The Lord needed this temple built so that he could restore some very big, important things. I personally find section 110 very interesting.
I got some great pix last night from Grandma. Congrats to Jake and Cara, you both look so happy.
Love you! hope you enjoyed the Scripture History lesson
ta ta for now!

Of course it's my month. February. Right guys? this year it's busy, busy, busy! I'm working on my Knowledge project, teaching one of our primary girls how to sew, my b-day's next Sunday, the 19th I've got a YCL meeting, the 20th I'm doing a sleep-over at a friends house, the 26th is a Priest/Laurel activity (dancing, cute guys, hot guys, handsome guys.... fun...) kidding, although there is a dance and it's a multi-stake act. lots of fun. the 27th I'm doing something special, and sometime this month we hope to feed the Elders dinner! not to mention going shopping with the girls, working on bags (hopefully) and this Saturday we Young Women will be decorating Valentine cookies for our fundraiser. right now, the last count we had was 50+ and we received 15-20 more. seriously, thanks everyone for their help with the recipes, and if anyone want to send me more, that's great. I'm so thankful for the Relief Society here in our branch. they've been giving me recipes as well. Some of them, I really can't wait to try. Miss you all, I won't say Happy Valentines Day yet, cuz I'll be posting closer to that time. Hope you like the new look on my blog.
Luv Ya!

White Knight
Sadly, instead of my 'Knight' I get a white 'Night' fun right? snow here, snow there, snow everywhere. And it just keeps coming. Ick. I don't like snow. I don't like winter. grr.. no mutual. Again. I'm working on my art, and because I know everyone who visits my blog, I'll say this. I need recipes for a cook book. I don't care if its a side dish, main dish, dessert, or whatever. can you email me? please? I'm having some fun at least. Mom's home, so I get her attention while I'm working on my winter accessories, she's helping me. I don't know what I'm going to do after though. guess what? I changed my blog for the month. I love this month (just hate the weather that comes with) of course, this month is for love anyway. so... until next month, (possibly longer) I'll be leaving my blog like this. Love you all!

Under Miles of Snow.....
Snow's a meltin finally!!!! so.. quick update.
I finished my Individual Worth project in Personal Progress, and I'm working on my Knowledge. Fun fun fun.

Man, I'm tired of grumpy kids, but now, I'm not in charge 3 days a week! oh, anyone with something good to read, tell me, pretty please! I'm gunna die soon cuz it's almost impossible to find an appropriate book to read. (they're teen section royally stinks. they think teens are adults who don't have very many morals.) I hate their section. you have to look for HOURS just to find one book, then that book might have something that'll make you put it down. irritating. I guess that's why I'm writing my own books. Thanks for reading my posts even when I complain. I miss everyone. oh, Ima Nut, I found out what Coldplay is. simply one word for them: AWESOME! I like.

As to WHY Alice.....
Alright. I've had a few people ask me why my blog is the Alice legacy, and why my nickname is Alice, what my obsession with the name Alice is ect.... so I'm here real quick to answer.
Once Upon a Time...
I think it was the April General Conference (no guarantees, I just know it was a conference that year) in the year 2007. that time, we'd gone to the church to listen to it. we had some visitors stop in, with a girl who looked to be around my age. Me, my attention span for conference was still kinda, well, zilch-ed out after the first half hour, and I was really curious about this newcomer. so I wrote her a note telling her my name, asking hers, if she was visiting or moving here, how old she was, yada yada yada. then I chickened out, and I couldn't give it to her. So, being resourceful, I did the next best thing. I made Angus give it to her. it worked. she sent it back saying her name was Maddie, and they were just passing through. after conference ended, and we were eating lunch, we got to know each other. we exchanged addresses, and soon we started sending letters to each other. we quickly started with email, and sometime during the first year, over emails, she introduced me to her cousin Julie, and around the same time she started calling me Alice. I asked her WHY she calls me Alice, and she said that I remind her of Alice in Wonderland. (I don't see why, even these years later...) I became good friends with Julie as well, and in December of 2008, I was able to meet Julie face to face for the first time, and see Maddie again. I enjoyed it so much. Oh, as to Alice, after she started calling me that, she wouldn't stop, and finally it just stuck. Now I use it in usernames, Blogs, and as my pen name. (Yeah, pen name. I am writing a book, and as soon as I finish it, I'll be writing another. only the difference between the two, the first doesn't have magic, the second will.)
The End

Yo! 12 new ways to FRY YOUR BRAIN!!!! In stores today....
1. Have a large family
2. Try to write a book, then go back and edit, change things, then continue on writing. (just trying to write works fine.)
3. Work on personal Progress, and finish a project.
4. Clean your room, and try to find things you'd had before you cleaned the stupid thing. (you know, it's messy, but at least you know where something is, and it's your mess.)
5. Having mom at work 3 days a week for about 3 years, so that means you're in charge.
6. Come close to being 16, and being released from your Mia Maid calling because A. you've had it for about a year. B. you have about 2 months before you do turn 16.
7. Have the first councilor in the branch presidency, who is also over the YW, move to a different state.
8. Have your sisters wedding and Girls camp the same month, within a FEW days of each other.
9. It's Winter, and Mutual was canceled, and now it's a REALLY good chance that we won't be able to go to church tomorrow DUE TO THE DANG SNOW THAT KEEPS FALLING!!!!
10. Have crazy siblings who like the snow.
11. Being allergic to the cold, and having your b-day in the middle of winter
12.NOT BEING ABLE TO FIND A NEW BOOK TO READ THAT IS NOT IMMORAL!!!!!
All of them work REALLY well on their own. Unfortunately, the combination is almost enough to kill someone. thankfully, it's just my norm, and I'm used to it. I just like to complain when I go stir crazy and have nothing to read, and am having a hard time working on my book.
More pix coming soon!
