Tis the season

Hello everybody,

I hope you all had an amazing Thanksgiving and got stuffed! Mine was great, that is all three of my thanksgivings :p
I had a Mexican thanksgiving with my friend Erica and her family. It was very interesting they still had turkey, rolls and mashed potatoes but along with that they had some sort of beans and chillie. It was Delicious :) I then had actual Thanksgiving at my fathers house in Missouri on Thanksgiving day, I got to see family I have not got to see in a long time. The next day I woke up super early to go Black Friday shopping.. Ok, maybe not so early four o'clock in the morning with my friends. My family went at 12 but they stick to a schedule and it gets stressful so I decided to have fun and go with my friends this year. I took my friend Ashley and her boyfriend Erik then 2 of our foriegn exchange students who have never been Black Friday hopping before. All in all we had a lot of fun I didn't get back until 2 O'clock. It was a veryyyy long day. I then went to hang out with my friends after. Today I just had thanksgiving with my mom at our house. The best food I've had :)
I finished my school play a few weeks ago! Leaving Iowa. I had 2 parts one as a smaller part, Judy who owns a hog farm in the middle of Kansas then I played an understudy as a main character of the sister.
Anyways Winter is here :D my favorite time of the year. I can't wait for snow so I can go sledding and drinking hot chocolate and wrapping Christmas presents.

I'll think of you every step of the way..

So, I've missed writing..
I really want to get back into it so I think I'll try to everyday especially now that I know there is an app for my phone.
A lot, let me get that clear A LOT. has been going on lately in my life.. a lot of senseless drama at school.. but ehh.. its High School, the "best years of our lives". I just find that sad if it really is.
So the weathers changing, its so beautiful outside. I love fall, I love the Bright Oranges, Reds, and yellows. After that follows Winter which I am soooo excited about.
I've done a bunch of reading latley, some good books
-Finding Alaska
-Whip it
-Impossible by.. idr who.. but I'll get back to you on that later
Im about to start a series and I'll tell you how it goes.
I've changed a lot from when I first started this blog. First off I'm seventeen now, have a car, back in public school, new friends, new living sitiuation, and mostly me myself and what I enjoy and who I am has changed.
anyways.. I'll talk about it in later post, for now I'm going to eat my favorite meal Hot wings, and relax.. which I really don't get to do anymore.

Every story has its beggining.

So hey there,

Here I am in third block at school today, I just try to keep you guys updated whenever I can.
How is everybody doing?
Me? I'm actually doing pretty well. I've had an awesome past few weeks with friends. Right now I really feel like I have the best friends in the world. Aubrey, Erica, Tucker, Tyler, Ethan, all of them, they are just really cool people.
So latley I've reallly been wanting to go on a diet, idk I just feel like its time.. I'm really no where I'm supposed to weigh and I just want to be healthy.
I finally got a car to drive temporarily, just my brothers Kia, it'll do for now. I miss my blazzer, which pretty much won't start. Fantastic right?
School, eh. Its school. I actually tried to go back to online school, but they wouldin't accept me. which sucks. sooo I'm stuck here, but I will just make the best of it. Football game last Friday was really fun I must admit, but thats because I was with Aubrey and Erica the whole weekend and they guys were there most of the time.
Well anyways, things are going good, hope for the same for you too!
Love, Danielle

So everybody, I know I have not updated you guys in a long time. A lot has been going on and my world is changing so fast to even have time to do this sort of stuff. So summers about to come to an end, its been a very hot and dreadful summer, ufortunatly. I decided to go back to public school at the last minute after taking the two classes all summer. I felt as if I no longer had the motivation to do online school anymore. Although, now thinking about it I somewhat regret my decision and wonder if I should go back before we get to far into the school year.

Oh so many things that I would rather not talk about but must inform you about, Me and Tyler broke up ehh. 2 months ago. I really don't think we are friends anymore sadly to say, but thats just the way things are.

Joy, one of my older sisters came back for a month in the end of July through August, I miss her terribly now. Having her back was like she was never gone in the first place. Her daughter Lilliana, who I helped raise for some of her life and Claire who is growing up so fast were as lively as ever and I enjoyed playing and babysitting them in the little time that I did have. The main reason that they were back was because Joe got back from Iraq and wanted to visist his family. While they were here my older sister Hannah happily married Tim, my new brother and law combining there 2 familys he, with a girl and a boy Abby and Elli. Hannah with my two neices Kyla and Simone. I am  overjoyed for them.

So I finished my two classes this summer.  I enjoyed spending time with my friends and family, taking long swims in the swimming pool and making a fire out back and looking at the stars. I wonder what could possibly be out there so far beyond where we are. If I could I wish I could stop it all, stop time because it definatly does go to fast. I just passed my seventeenth birthday, I know that is not that old... but to me.. it seems like it and I am somewhat dreading the 18th birthday. My blazzer decided to break down before school and so I have to ride the bus.. sadly... well. I HATE IT! my busdriver just yells and drives way to fast, freaks me out!

I'd like to get back into writting because I have missed it so much, I really just have not known what to write in the past from what I have gone through.

For the future, I am excited for so many things. I may be excited, but I am also scarred at the same time. I guess you can never really know what going to happen until it does, but by then.. it will be the past.

hmm (:

So it sooo hot out! Parents won't turn on air conditioner because we cant afford it, but that's ok.. I'll suck it up. After talking with the family they said that we wouldin't be moving till at least next spring which kinda makes me happier.. but I should not be as selfish its there decision.. It's there life and I will be 18 in a year! exciting right!? ehh. Im thinking once I graduate I want to travel around for like a year, I don't know we will see how things happen. I've also been thinking about taking 2 years of college and becoming a dental hygenisist. These next few weeks should be great! I'm excited.. Tomorrow me and Tyler are going out to the movies and seeing super 8! I'm excited.. yeah I'm sorta into those movies.. I mean I love movies most girls don't.. Matrix, x-men, ect. This weekend we are celebrating 4th of July early and I'm sooo excited to make my Peach Pie.. Its so Delicious. We will be shooting off fireworks and swimming in the pool.. On the fourth of July Me and Tyler are going out to the Fireworks show, I have not been to one in a long time! In a few more weeks Joy and Lilly!!! my little niece lilly.. love her probably more then anybody else in the world.. she is so special.. shes 3 and I've helped raise her half of her life.. ok Lilly, claire (baby) and her husband joe will be returning home for my sister Hannahs wedding! then we will be going on a trip to a cabin in Arkansas! sounds exciting right? well I am! How are all of you and what are your plans?

latley.

So the past few weeks have gone by really slowly. I am getting very tired of school work. It consumes my whole day and I just enjoy it so much when I get out of the house. Which is only about 2 or 3 times a week just running errands or hanging out with Tyler. Last weekend I got to enjoy the drive-inn movies with the whole family, first thing to check off on my summer to do list (: a little late though.. it seems. We saw Kung Fu Panda and Green lantern but I really did not watch them because my mind was in other places. It was very nice to see the family though. Recently my sister who has two daughters was going through a custody battle with her ex husband and got custody of the 2 girls so we are very glad about that. I was worried about leaving because it had started lightning a lot and I thought it was going to start pouring in my car! luckily the movie ended about 10 minutes before it started pouring. I let my step dad drive my car because, well I'm a little scarred of driving in the rain when it gets bad and I knew it was going to get bad. We were headed home on a four lane highway when my step dad started to hydroplane.. we were not hydroplaning before and it just seemed to take control. He knew something was going on so he tried to get to the outside lane away from the wall where we were at. Thank god he made it over there because we ended up doing 4 360 turns right in the middle of the highway. Luckily there were no cars around.. It scarred me so much I closed my eyes because we were coming back around to the wall with our car backwards which now meant my side of the car was on the wall. and we were about to hit the wall when we stopped oh so short of it. Thank god... I was freaked out for the rest of the night though.. we went slow. It's very funny because I had just prayed about 5 minutes previous to it happening that we would all get home safely. I know god answered my prayers (: It was freaky though just seeing those cars approaching while your doing turns, it was kinda in slow motion. Anyways that was about a week ago and now everything's okay except that my mom is thinking about moving an hour away where I would have less people to socialize with... I'm already lonely as it is. anyways that is it for now.
