My boring life.. :)

Hey you guys! Just thought I would get you a quick little up-date, since the last one was whimpy! So, school is great just the end of the tri got all A's this time... yeah, its a first, but I still got $40.00 so it was totally worth it! The rest is just the crappy drama, I swear girls, ugh... some people's parents! haha just kiddin. I'm still doing soccer, last game wasn't my favorite, we played the team that hurt my knee so on top of how timid I already am, talk about more! I was FREAKED out! But still got pissed off about how the game ended...:( Bridge is bridge I love it! Me and Doom make the best out of that thing!!!!! I'm sure some of you have heard some of our stories! Haha one of the little instructor dude Cory is beyond funny!!! haha got to love it. Oh and then, I just found out today that Mckall is coming to visit on Friday! I have not talked to that girl since summer when she moved to Texas!!!!! Anyway, that is pretty much life right now. Just thought that I would get a little update!
Peace :)
Love, Alex

Cabin!

The cabin was so much fun! We left for Island park Tuesday morning, bright and early and then left to get back to Utah Friday morning, once again... bright and early! It was a very eventful trip. Tuesday we just got unpacked and hung out. Wednesday we went out into the meadow kind of by the cabins to go tubing and mess around in the powder! It was so fun, I spent alot of my time pulling some of my cousins around... it was a sight they would all pile on to a little tube with a HUGE hole in the middle they all fell right through it, their butts were draggin in the snow the whole way! The 2 that got it worse were usually Sami, and Alyssa they were the 2 oldest so they got the bottom the next row on top of them would be Payson, and Megan, then on top the fragile one Anna! HAHA! it came from Anna's pants falling down to her ankles, to Megan's arm falling through the hole and getting ran over! It was so much fun! I got goin pretty fast, dang can most of those kids hold on, they all tumbled off as soon as one person fell though! I think Pays made the best of it! He is quite the funny kid! Then I would get on the tube with my uncles driving (bad idea), all the powder, jumps and speed that they put me threw I was sore. Thursday we all took rides up to Spring Creek a few miles up the road. We only had 8 snowmobilles so we had to split the groups up. My ride up I had my little sister Megan behind me! The next event was Truman on the way up getting sick with the flu that carried on to his mom (my aunt) Amber getting sick, then to my mom's sister (my aunt) Natalie and then my Grandma, then finally Carter puking off the loft all over the next floor... Count on the Manwaring's to make some thing fun! I have so much more to tell about but we will leave it at that! I will post some pictures as soon as I can get them on to my computer! Love you all!
Love Alex

Love ya sis.

ISLAND PARK!!!

Every year since I can remember, I have gone on a huge family trip! My WHOLE extended family on my mom's side would go up and stay in a cabin and go snowmobilin! When I was younger my Grandpa would get one really big cabin out in Yellow Stone that we would stay in! I remember that cabin so well! There was one room that all the parents would go up in and play Murder in the Dark or Mofia (I think that is how you spell it...) all I remember I could hear when that was going on was screaming or someone getting hit up against the wall... uncle's and their rough housing... but the thing that I remember most in that room was the window ceil filled with gross little dead flys.. haha GREAT MEMORY isn't it? This Cabin was huge! But, for the last few years my Grandpa has been getting ones up in Island Park! We get 3 cabins and split the families and then all get together during the day then go off to our own cabins and get to bed then meet in a certain cabin all day and carry on with that routine! It is so much fun! There is a hot tub, tons of food, and all the family! The Manwaring family always has great times! Snowmobiling is the best though... ecspecially when your on the back of the tube... last year I was on the back with my crazy uncle Ben, with my aunt Natalie and Emily I think we were all piled on and they flew off so I am on the tube by myself and Ben is going crazy I lived through it and when he stopped I was completly covered from head to toe in snow... it was COLD! I am so excited to go this year! I leave Tuesday morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!
