Sevies or 7th graders

I haven't done very good with keeping up on my blog so here are some updates on live here at PG.

First of all school. I am a sevie(sev-ee)! That's the 7th graders nickname at our school. That's right I'm a junior higher! I love JH! I have made many new friends and hang out with them everyday at school. My classes are awesome too. Well most of them. My favorite class is orchestra. I play the violin. The teacher Mr. Beck is the best in the school. He is always doing fun things and making everyone laugh. My least favorite class is utah history. I have my own locker which is a plus because I don't have to dig through 500 backpacks to get to mine and carry a ton of books.

Second update sports. I am still playing soccer, but I am on a different team. GO NORTHERN PEAKS!! We are a AAA D5 team. I play midfield wing. My number is 2. So far we have won 2 games and tied 2.
Coincidence? I also tried out for cheer. I made it on the squad but I had to chose between soccer and cheer and you know what I picked.

For Christmas we got a dirt bike. You'd think that would be cool, and it is, but when you have a 6 foot dad and a little 70 dirt bike picking you up from school it isn't a good mix. It's like a panda riding a miniture pony. We also got our first horse! Everyone was excited except mom. She groaned as we pulled up to our house with a trailer complete with a horse in it. Hickory Jack Flash or Jack is a bay quarter horse. He has a black mane and tail and a brown coat. On his nose there is a white stripe where he likes to be pet. He has done well since he moved into the pasture which is a block away. He has made many friends too. On the other side of the fence there are three horses that he stands by 24/7. We have a pasture behind our house with four horses in it. One day they got out and walked around our neighborhood. When our neighbor found them they were with Jack and the three other horses. We have been working on getting another horse for Jack but so far no luck. Maybe it's because my dad and I are picky.

Last update injuries. This year we haven't had any broken bones, knock on wood, and if you know the Blakes thats a miracle. But we did have an incident last night. While climbing some stairs in the garage, Leah tripped and cut her head open above her eye. A neighbor came over carrying Leah and her bloody forehead. She had to go to the ER and get seven stitches.
