Knott's Berry Farm

Ok, so this is my first time using the blog. This is Kirsten, by the way. Alyssa wanted me to do this for her, so this is my first post.After I went on the Knott's field trip at school, I wanted to go again sooo bad. So my dad got us some tickets on New Year's and we went the next day.

Travis and I on the Xcelerator (the best ride)!All of us on Supreme Scream (my dad chickened out on us)....I don't have any idea what this was about...Alyssa loves taking pictures.This was by the Perilous Plunge, and my dad thought it was funny (he chickened out on that ride too).This was how wet we got on the Perilous Plunge. Alyssa was screaming "ahh! I'm so scared!" the whole time....And the back of how wet we were...

Overall, this was a lot of fun. I hope we can get season passes, I love that place!

Hanging with some boys from Spanish Fork ;)

I was going to post this on my blog but I'm not at dixie. So last night my friend Brooke and I went over to the house of a family in our ward to hang out with some boys who are there to visit them. We played Kent then Nerts and then we decided to hang our at back at my house. So like most teenagers they wanted to hang out by the firepit and roast marshmallows. And I've turned into a picture nerd after I got my new camera for christmas. So I took some pictures of us all. The boys being funny.

This is (from left to right) Taylor, me and Chris ;)
Brooke and I.


The boys.

Thanksgiving!

I'm so sorry for such a late update! But I'm home now so I have time to do this. So first off we'll start with the hotel that my family stayed in in on the monday before I came to San Francisco to join them. Kirsten enjoying the view from their room.










When you walk out the front door of the room this is what you see when you look down.

The cool looking elevator.


The view of the other side of the hotel across from the front door.


The room!


This is the floor they stayed on.


Since they stayed on floor 8 they had to use this key thing to get there.


More of the view. Cool, eh?



Now the rest of these pictures until noted are places my family went and I don't know much about them but most pictures are of signs and they each say what they are for. They are pretty much all historical places in northern California.

































So as you can see my family picked me up at the San Francisco airport and I'm with them now. And here we are at Marie Calender's for Thanksgiving dinner.

This is our cousin Kaylene. She is so fun and so cute.

This is another cousin, Bradley. He sure is a cute one too and has curly eyelashes.
Travis and Bradley playing together, having so much fun.

So here you can see my pants are wet; I was holding my glass of water and then all of a sudden it slipped out of my hand and spilled all over my pants.

And I gotta tell you it was so uncomfortable!!

At our grandparents cabin playing pool.


Feeding my little cousin Kaylene. :)
Sorry again for the super late update.

Trip to the ranch

Last weekend our family went to our great-grandmas ranch. I put some pictures on my blog but they were all of me. lol. So here's some more pictures of what it looks like up there and some of the family.

Cook Springs


We saw 2 big deers between the trees.



So pretty!





When we go on our hikie this is where we end. This is the first cabin that was built on the property and it is where my grandma and her family stayed when they came up.






Sunset out at the ridge.








This is what happens when Travis gets hold of the camera. lol.







Crazy!
