Memorial Day weekend I went down to spend Thursday through Monday with the fam. Garrett "promoted" (I guess that's what it's called now-a-days) from 8th grade and is now officially going into....HIGH SCHOOL!!! It's a scary thought to think my "wittle baby bruver" is going to be a high schooler because he has an attitude at 14 that his sister had at 18 so it's going to be interesting. I am thinking of starting a pool of how many times he gets beat up within the first semester. Go ahead and email me with your bets! HAHA! I have posted a picture (the only picture he actually looked down at me) from the "promotion" ceremony. I also have another "big baby bruver" who just submitted his mission papers about a week and a half ago and is waiting for "the call". I took his missionary pictures a couple of weekends back but they are on my mom's dinosaur of a computer and the chance of me getting them off of there is slim so you will just have to deal with the picture of him at Garrett's graduation (long, messy hair, as Derek would call that fuzz ball on his chin a "south patch", hardly a look for a missionary :( ). Topped off the day of festivities with ice cream at Sonic with old friends Dan and Traci (Tiff is a ditcher!) The best part of the whole 
weekend was SHOPPING!!! Mom, Dad, Bradford, and I all went out Saturday for Goodwill's 50% off day. Some of you might be saying, "YUCK!!! Goodwill is dirty!!!". It's not so bad once you get past all of the people hacking up the swine flu in your face! BAHAHA!!! (there were really people there walking around in surgical masks!) Another reason I LOVE Goodwill 50% off day is because where on earth can I find 5 bags of clothes (good quality and unstained) for under $50?!?!?! It's amazing! Monday my mom and I headed out to yet another thrift store (Savers) for their 50% off day. Nicer stuff but way, WAY too many people for my liking. All in all it was a productive weekend and nice to just get away.

I am just writing it like any old journal entry about the "life of Val" as I would call it. TOOTLES!!!
