Febuary 3, 2011

So I decided I was going to write a weekly post of the week. Some of them might be boring and so I am sorry if you get bored. Haha. I soon hope to make my blog into a book so I gotta get working on the whole blog thing(:

My parent's left this past week to go on a luxurious cruise to the Bahama's ( I think!) I tried getting them to let me go but that wasn't an option to them! They said that they had so much fun in Hawaii together that this cruise was just for them! The grandparent's came down and this week has been a drag.. Don't get me wrong I love my grandparents, but it's just different not having mom and dad in the home, not hearing dad snore at night (I have gotten so use to it that I just noticed that it lullabies me to sleep) so I haven't been sleeping very well! It's hard to have to explain everything, when my mom and dad know exactly how the Peck house runs. haha. I am kinda spoiled! But I am soo ready for them to come home and for things to run normal!

Not much has happened this week. Kinda been boring. My days have consist of waking up, going to school, coming home, doing homework, taking my after school nap, sewing, and then going to bed. I have started learning the white keys in Piano and so that was a plus! I have been waiting forever to start the white keys! haha! School has been the same. Nothing really exciting. I have all A's and so that brings me and my parents pleasure(: I got my first detention today, and so that was a bummer. Oh well! School is half way over and I am soo looking forward to summer. I use to LOVE school and was always excited to go, but now.. things are different! haha. But I enjoy my friends and teachers.. just not the whole school part. I have also spent a lot of my time at the Ludlows house just chillin' with the most amazing kids ever(: I love kids and especially newborns and so thats a bigg plus!

I plan to go snowboarding wayy soon and I am thrilled! I go with Shayden Smith but you see.. he's really good, and then there is me. It's pretty sad! Let's hope next time we go hit the slopes, I can learn some more tricks from him so I can actually be good. I can stand up and turn but I want to be able to do "cool" things. But isn't doing "cool" things get you hurt? Yeah... So maybe that won't happen!

I have been cooking a lot lately and I absolutely love it! I can now admit that I can make cookies which failed everytime but on Tuesday! I was soo proud of myself! I have recently made Orange Julius, Bubble Bread, Mini Pizzas, Carmel Corn, Sugar Cookies, Chocolate Chip Cookies, eggs, pancakes, and cake! I enjoy it and so hopefully I will keep cooking away and be a really good cook for my husband one day!(:

Sewing is practically my life now! I am sewing pajama pants now, and I have given up. I had to STOP yesterday because I was about to chuck my sewing machine across the room! So frustrating when you sew something that takes forever and than realize that you messed up. It's a disaster!! Maybe one day, I will have the patience to work on it again!

Cheer is Cheer. Nothing really interesting. Learning Hip hop dance and lets hope that actually it will be good enough to get first. /: this year has been the hardest year and so I am so ready for a break!!

Well there is my little update. It isn't much, and you were probably bored out of your mind but.. I have been too(:

Sew Cassie Sew!!!!!







Ouch!?(:





For Christmas I got a sewing machine and practically now thats all I do! SEW SEW SEW!! I really enjoy figuring out patterns and then seeing the finished thing! I made some baby things for a baby across the golf course and I was a little nervous to give them to her because it was my first time with using patterns and it could have been a ton better! But hey! I thought I did a pretty good job for learning everything on my own! I am hoping soon to start a little business type of thing on a blog..but I need some more practice! My next sewing project is a quilt for myself and then pajama pants! We will have to see how that turns out. I am always really nervous when I start cutting and sewing things because I tend to mess up half the time and have to tear out the stitch and restart! It no fun! Stay tuned for MANY more of my creations(:





Oh and if your wondering.. those feet would be mine and Brooklynns(:

Brinley Ann

There she is! She didn't like the orange light that my camera would make when we took a picture so in most all of them she is squinting. She has attuitude already(: it is hilarious!(:
Brooklynn and I at the hospital. I love Brooklynn.

Her and I were both really excited to see this little one(:


I love little babies(:



She is a doll(:




Brinley Ann is finally here! I feel like she is my little sister! I was seriously counting down the days till she was born! It's my neighbor's baby and I tend her kids often and so I seriously feel like family!(: She was suppose to be born on Thursday but decided she wanted to come on Monday!(: My mom got a text from Natalie saying that she was in labor and should be having Brinley later that day. My mom woke me up to tell me the exciting news at like 7ish?? I was soo excited that I couldn't sleep any longer.! I went over to hang out with the kids and then she was born! I rushed home..went to walmart..make one last baby quilt and then went to see this cutie at the hospital! She is soo adorable and I was thrilled to be able to actually go into the hospital to actually hold her! I already love her and I can't wait to hopefully be apart of her life and watch her grow(: Here are some pictures of her and I in the hopsital.

Slacker?

Oh boy! I haven't been on this blog since July! That is crazyy! I know all of you missed me very much and I am SO sorry!(; But I made a goal this year to stay up with the blog and hopefully updated as often as possible!(:

My life has been pretty much amazing!(: I have been really busy and I am hoping that this year will just be as busy!(: I am still cheering and I finally decided that I need to take a break! Don't get me wrong, I love the girls and coaches, but with 28 girls there is bound to be drama! But it has been a really good cheer year and I am actually excited to take a break and be able to hang around with the family more often! This year our cheer team didn't do as well as the previous years. We got a new head coach and so things were a LOT different! We didn't make it to Nationals (that was a huge bummer.. I was looking forward to seeing Chelsea and Davis and being able to go to DISNEYLAND!) but I think it's best that we don't go because it wouldn't be worth all the money. I am a base in my cheer group and LOVE it. I actually get to lift my best friend (Toni Barney) and her and I have a blast joking around and having fun! She will also not be doing cheer this next season, and we are planning to spend some more time with each other!(:

School is school. HA! There's the ups..and then there's the downs. Sometimes I enjoy it..and sometimes I hate it! But yes... I think all of my friends can admit the same dang thing. I just think middle school is a hard time..but thankfully..it's been going pretty smooth for me! I am in a sewing/cooking/baby care unit right now and it is one of my favorite classes! I also LOVE spanish and I hope that one day I will become very fluent! I am in the seventh grade but get mixed up by my teachers for being in 8th grade./: I have straight A's and basically school comes very easy to me, which is really nice. I am enrolled in Honor Society and I am going to take all Honor classes next year. I am going to be one busy woman with all of this homework!(:

The Peck house seems very lonely these days. Chelsea and Jessica moved away and seem to be enjoying life!(: Katie hangs out more often and so it seems like I am the older one now because I am gone way more now than she is. haha. Katie and I get along more and it's been really nice. She takes me to and from school and I am so grateful for her. I look forward to those couple minutes in the car ride with her even if it is just listening music with her. She gives me great advice and I always go to her when I need help or sad. We don't always get along, but for the most part, we are best friends! FYI: I never knew this day would come when we would finally get along..but it's happening! I am finally doing my part and she is finally doing her part and we are bestest friends! YAY!(: I sure do love her!(:

I have recently discovered a new talent! SNOWBOARDING! I love it! I have a friend who is a big time snowboarder and so I really enjoyed going up with him and hittin the slopes!(: I am not extremely good but I can stay up and turn back and forth. Maybe one day I will get the guts to go on the jumps..one day.. I really like the adrenaline rush from it all and I love being on the beautiful mountains! I was actually planning to go tomorrow but that plan failed/: In February I will be going again, so I will make sure to take lots of pictures!

For Christmas I got a sewing machine. This is practically my baby! I LOVE this thing! I took a class at JoAnn's and got down all the basics! I made my neighbor who is going to have a baby girl (YAY!) a blanket and some other things with my sewing machine. I like the joy of looking at the finished project and being able to say "Yep, that's right! I made that!" If you ever come over the to Peck house and can't find me, look in my sewing area, I bet you will find me!(:

I just started Piano. I am not quite for sure how long this will last but so far I am enjoying it. I go to lessons once a week. It's really nice because my piano teacher just lives down the road and so it's way nice to be able to walk down there and back! Lets hope I can get really good, so i can post a video on the blog!(:

I hope Natalie doesn't mind, but I am going to brag about her family!(: I am very fortunate to be really good friends with this neat family! I tend for her 3 kids and I absolutely adore them! They are seriously the easiest kids to tend. I feel like each time I go over there, my friendship and love for these kids grow! I was just over there Friday night and I thought this was a wayy cute memory that I need to remember! I told the kids while it was bath time how stinkin cute they were. Bubba's reply was, "Cassie you are the best babysitter ever! I love you!" and then he gave me a kiss on the cheek. Right there I felt like crying! I then said, "Bubba, I love you! Do you think I could be your sister?" Bubba had to think for a minute about this but after washing his hair he said "Well..sure sister!" So it's officially Ludlow Family! Not only are you guys have a new baby come into the family but also I am!(: I am so excited for this new baby and I feel more excited than her kids are! Like no joke! I am counting down the days! I plan on going over there frequently for awhile so her and the baby can rest while I play with her kids. I hope I will always be in her kid's life and that they will always remember me for being "The Best babysitter/sister ever!"(;

Well.. I could keep on rambling on but by now you are probably sleeping while reading this. I am going to update this blog often now! It's a plan of mine! I hope all of you guys' life's are going well! I love all of you!

<3 Cassie

1st Ward BBQ

I am so bad with charging my camera! I got to the BBQ and found that my camera was dead! But I did get a really cute photo of Bubba and Brooklyn on the water slide before everyone showed up! It was a really fun and I was a little bummed that Kaylee had hurt her foot and couldn't really do much! But I did hang out with some cute little girls! Brooklyn Ludlow and Jamie Ashworth! I had a fun night and am SO thankful for my neighbors and the people in my ward! They are the greatest!

Dang Baseball Fields...


Sorry for the wide and short Peck feet photo. I was just sooo mad about the clay at the fields and for it dying my purple shoes ORANGE!
I went to the Ashworths house and they live really close to the baseball fields. I have no talent in baseball but thought WHAT THE HECK! It was really fun until I looked down at my feet and found that it had dyed my feet and shoes! Not only did it dye them it like TATTOOED them orange! I went to church the next day and I had so many people ask me if I had gotten Fake bake put on my feet and legs! :] So if any of you are wanted a orange glow... Go roll around at the baseball fields. You'll get the perfect affect. ;]

I'M A BIG GIRL NOW!!

Moving. It was kind of a better/sweet experience! I have lived in that room for 12 1/2 years! :[
EMPTY!

Now this is a BIG STEP! MOVING DOWNSTAIRS!

Yes.. After all these years I conquered the fear and moved downstairs! This was a big step in my life! haha! I have always been a little frightened of my basement for some reason so I really felt excited to finally make the choice to move! And I must say... I LOVE IT! Practically I have the whole basement to myself since Katie works practically all day everyday! I really enjoy it and am glad for moving! I decided I would suprise my mom and start moving. I didn't get very far until she came home and made me clean the room before placing things in the room! I am in Jessica's old room. I love the bed and the room period! :] It is fantastic! Thanks Jessica for sharing your room! :] I thought I should share this big accomplishment! I don't have any final pictures of the room because we are still trying to decorate and make it cute! Where is Chelsea and Jessica when you need them? I have block letters above the window that say "Cassie Randy" but I might find some vinyl or something! Who knows! But when it's finally cute I'll be sure to post the pictures!
