My Life's Notes

My recent choice of morning wardrobe. My sister informed me a picture was necessary.

Sisters a few years ago in Hawaii

Dear Captain America,
You are by far my favorite super hero. I know you don't have the coolest powers, but you have the nicest body and you definitely use your powers to defeat the evil sources(does that even make sense??)

Dear Ma(trek mom that is),
Thanks for the workout today! Considering the fact I haven't worked out that hard since November, I know I will be sore tomorrow.

Dear Mothers who I worked out with today,
You are all definitely a lot more in shape than us 3 teenagers who were dying the whole time.

Dear Kiddos who I see every Monday and Wednesday,
I love you. And I love when you get into messes because it makes my job more fun. Especially when you love bouncy balls at each others heads, I seriously love it and will miss it when I go back to school.

Dear Businesses,
Sorry, but I am sticking to babysitting for a few more years for money. It's way too fun!

Dear Lauren,
Don't leave me again. You just came back after 3 weeks, and now you are going to HAWAII! No fair... I want to go too

Dear US Open,
I might have considered attending if I wasn't so dang white! But I guess that isn't your fault I can't tan..

Love,

Kenz

Summer Bucket List

Me Last Summer with Scott Stephan carrying Me across a river on our Stake's Pioneer Trek

Every year I love to do a bunch of random things over Summer, but this year I have been really into going on spontaneous adventures. I mainly go on my adventures with my friend Hayden, who is going up to BYU for college in August. In order to send him off properly, I am determined to go on the most amazing adventures with him before he leaves. I started making a list of things I will do over the Summer, and everyday I have pretty much added something new. I only have 7 days to add new things though!! Here is a preview of a few things I am going to complete:

1. Take a picture in front of Mackenzie St.

2. Wear something belonging to a male figure all day

3. Have a board game party

4. People watch at Disneyland

5. Go to the park and swing on the swings

6. Play a large game of Hide and Go Seek

7. Go to the beach and color with a coloring book and crayons

8. Give a man a manicure

9. Get a milkshake really early in the morning

10. Have a cupcake decorating contest

11. Ride a city bus

12. Have a picnic

13. Go on a Scavenger Hunt

14. Give a random guy a ring pop and ask them to marry you

15. Have a fake marriage at Ikea

16. Go to Old Town Orange

17. Dress up in gnarly costumes and go shopping

18. Go goth far a day

19. Go Fast Food Hopping

20. Go roller skating

These are just a few of our wonderful ideas! I hope they are as fun as they sound.

HA I'm ready for school to end (My 8th grade year, I got voted as most likely to sing on Broadway. Oh and by the way, I made the Chamber Choir at my school next year!!!)

My Random Thoughts Monday

I know I never even finished out the week with my blogging! It was a crazy week. Being the last week of volleyball season and HALLOWEEN I was really excited.

Which reminds me:

I never told you about my Halloween!!

I dressed up as a cowgirl this year, and I thought I was pretty darn cute for a last-minute costume.

(Plaid Shirt-Goodwill Overalls-Goodwill Boots-Borrowed Hat-Some shop in Palm Springs) (p.s. aren't those overalls to die for?!)

All the Kids in my family, and our costumes:

(Order from left to right: T-Harry Potter M-Princess M-Cheerleader M-Cowgirl)

Madalyn and I babysit this darling little girl. What's ironic about her costume(Rapunzel from Tangled if nobody knew who she was, which by the way would be very sad)? She has the shortest hair of all of her friends the same age as her.

Halloween night was spent playing a volleyball game, then taking two cute little girls trick-or-treating with my friend Damon. It was extremely fun because we ended the night with the movie Polturgeist II. It's sort of a tradition to watch one of the Polturgeist movies on Halloween.

My Random Thoughts Monday

Wouldn't it be awesome if it was socially accepted for girls to wear moustaches??

Just a few years ago(can't believe it's been that long), all the girls in my church put on a skit where we had to dress up like guys, and the first idea for dressing up was: MOUSTACHES!! That's where this picture comes from.

Happy Halloween to everyone!! Have a fantastic time trick-or-treating! I will be playing some volleyball and hopefully destroying the opposing team

*Here is me in my 12-year-old gloriousnessness (AKA Awkwardness)*

*My all-time favorite Halloween costume from last year, The Mad Hatter has new expectations now*

Just Cause it's Summer...

The Beach. The Sand. The Waves. The Sound. The Air. The Smell. The Laughter. The Games. The Friendship. The Sports. The Freedom. The Sun. The Weather. The Shorts. The Dresses. The Love. The People. The Colors. The Ice Cream. The Sandals. The Sunglasses. The Hats.

I ABSOLUTELY AM FREAKING IN LOVE WITH SUMMER!!! The Whole Deal, not just part of it, but the whole entirely season.

Because I've been the biggest slacker ever known to walk this earth(hehe I'm kiddin) I thought i would share with you a few summer memories I caught on film, or the handy-dandy digital camera that I sometimes want to kill.

1. Pardon My Immodesty

but check out these beauties!! When I found these in my madre's closet one day I about died. These lovely overalls make me feel like I'm in some Jenny Craig commercial saying: "I Just Lost 76lbs." To tell you the truth I have not been losing weight, but rather gaining it :(

(With the way I eat it is hard not to ha.)

2. Lovely Posters like these...

After a lovely day at the beach, I headed to Harbor House(a truly magnificent diner, if your ever in the area you should go there!) with a friend where we love looking at all the different posters as we eat our yummy, fattening food.. This one happens to say Destiny, which is a vital point used in many of the arguements I win 3. Teaching my Brother the Art of Photography...

and finding a picture like this(fantastic) taken by Him(a 9-year-old boy). I think he has a hidden talent because that picture was definitely not planned at all. The lighting is making me "green with jealous rage"-FAST: anyone know the quote? ANSWER: Hot Rod! AKA greatest (mormon) movie alive, but really it isn't a mormon movie 4. This No Makeup Goodness... This picture is definitely not the cutest but it shows my lovely freckles, lightened hair, and no makeup.. all results of the summer! Whoever wears makeup during summer is crazy, when your a real californian you take everyday you can get to go makeup free(which isn't always the best look for me)

5. Bathroom Pictures in Palm Springs...

ha. So basically I can't explain my love for this bathroom. Everytime my fam stays at this resort it's pretty normal for me and my sis to spend half the time in this sweaty, steamy, hot bathroom(which is half indoors and half outdoors.. Cool I know). Just one of the pictures we took after a lovely shower in the bathroom, yes that lovely lookin lady in the red bathin suit would be me

I have plenty more pictures to share eventually, but for now I'll take it a lil bit at a time... heading on a HUGE, GNARTATIOUS trek tomorrow after I hit up my skills at some volleyball yet again, maybe I'll actually be awake this time.. hmmm

I have something I Moustache you but I'll shave it for later

Mormon Moustache Mania!!! Can you say Heaven??

This past Saturday there was (yet another) stake dance in my area. This time it was Laguna Niguel(Which always had EXQUISITE themes... ex. duct tape). So basically this Saturday everyone at the dance was a man, and I mean literally. If you "dressed up" as a girl, it was just socially unacceptable and unheard of. BUT then there's me, and I guess I'm just a socially awkward person because I grow my beard on my shirt and not my face(How do people find that so weird??).

ANYWAYS, it was a moustache themed dance!! And by far my favorite of the summer(which isn't hard to be my favorite since it was the 1st one I've been to all summer... weird, i know).

For the dance me and mi madre decided to find some shirts for me and mi hermana(that means sister) to wear to the dance. So basically we never go to Walmart but we tried it anyway, and found success!! With only a few cuts to the shirt, and a little felt, we made wonderful and homemade tshirts!!!

This is what it originally looked like:

After all the Designing:

And this is the shirt in action(well partially, i guess we are all leaning against a wall):

Thank you to my Mom and these lovely people to take a picture with me so it would look like I have friends!!

Disclaimer: I just lied to you. Those are just 4 of my friends. I have bunches. I'm not bragging or anything though.
