I figure since today's the last day of June, I should get in one post before July comes. Yeah, I'm getting lazy with this. :P
I went to Girl's Camp last week. It was Chanelle's first year to go. Aww. :) Technically, I'm too old to just go as one of the girls (like I got away with last year), so this time I was officially a leader. It was a little weird, I have to admit... kind of awkward at times, but definitely really nice. Kara and I both went as leaders, but we ended up still getting some of the neat things the girls got from the leaders and all of that. And then, the way things worked out, we had hardly any responsibilities, so it was way more relaxed for Kara and I than any other year I've gone to camp. Not only that, but we were in cabins (we've have cabins some times and tents other times) that had really nice air conditioning, like I've never had before - seriously, it was so good that most people would get cold at night. It was wonderful. And being there with Chanelle was so much fun. I loved watching her and her friend Nicki do things together, they're so cute. I love Chanelle. :)
Oh, I also made it into the BYU Marching Band. Hooray. :D I think I should be more excited about it than I am - honestly, I think it was more of a matter of either frustration if I didn't make it vs relief if I did, rather than oh well if I didn't vs party time if I did. I am very happy about it though.
I'm still wondering about my major, and I've actually been doing a double-take on the classes I signed up for months ago, but I think my classes are pretty much set. I think about changing stuff, but I'm not sure I actually will.
Oh yeah, I also went to a high school band concert at the end of May, man it seems like so long ago... I went on to different nights, because our high school has so many bands. The first night I went to listen to Cody's band, which after the lower orchestras that I heard before he went on, was wonderful. Heck, it was a really good concert either way, I really enjoyed it. The next night, after listening through a bunch of other lower groups, was Wind Ensemble, which was also incredible to listen to. And it was Gibson's last concert, since he's moving up to Administrator of Arts or something fancy like that. :) So yeah, the concerts were really good. Afterwards, Sarah, Alex, Rachel R and I (who went to the second night of concertness together) went to Sonic, which was really fun. Good, good times.
I also went to the YSA Conference the other weekend... like, two weekends ago? Something like that. First night was an "Activity Night", which turned out to be kind of odd... so Rachel H, Marianne, Sarah (don't remember her last name) and I sat in an empty room for most of the time (we did go and socialize from time to time!) and just talked. Well, I didn't do a whole lot of talking, but it was fun. The next day there were workshops and a service project of some sort, and I went to two of the workshops, both of them with Rachel H, and one of them also with Kara and some other fun people. They were good. I also went to the fireside the next night, on Sunday. That was also good. I got there a little late, and didn't want to look awkward looking for an open seat next to some person I didn't know, so I sat just outside of the chapel. It turned out to be nice though, 'cause I got to just sit there on a comfy couch while I listened.
I haven't mentioned it on here, I don't think, but Debbie is pregnant! She has been for at least a few months now, I don't remember exactly how long... but today's Jeffrey and Debbie's first anniversary, and they went and got an ultrasound - and it's a boy! We're so excited! The name is already picked out, too - Knightley Leland (Jacobson). Cute name, I think. His due date, I believe, is December 1st, so he should be born sometime around when Ashton turns one. That's so cool. So yeah, definitely exciting stuff.
Kara and I went to visit teach Lisa yesterday, and she said that she might be getting her mission call either Monday (today) or Tuesday! Better not be Monday, because I haven't heard anything about it yet! Anyway, I just think it's so cool that she's going on a mission - I really admire sister missionaries. I still don't know if I plan to when the time comes or not, but I think it's great.
The movies I've seen this month include Indiana Jones and Prince Caspian, both of which I liked. I can see why people may not have liked Indiana Jones because it was kinda weird at time, but I still really liked it. And Prince Caspian was also a fantastic movie. In the near future, I'm hoping to see Kung Fu Panda, Wall-E, and Get Smart. They all look really good, and I've heard good things about all of them.
Well, there's a lot that goes on in one month, I guess, but I think I got most of it. Life is going just swell, most of the time. There's things about going back to school that I'm looking forward to, but I love being home and it's definitely going by too fast. :)
