Oh yay! :)

Long Time No See!

2010-10-23T14:26:00.000-07:00

I failed...I am bored of the countdown. I will start it up again one day. But I just wanna write today!! Sorry friends.:)

Ahhh my little writings today are about really one of the best thing that has happened to everyone. It is called the Sisterhood:) How I missed it. It is a notebook for my friends. My little group. Shayla, Kadie, Maddy, Lindsey, Lexi, Sam, and Syd. We are the Sisterhood. They are my best girl friends. So...here is the story.

Two of them got into a fight one day. (Our group doesn't get into fights very often so when something happens it is not good.) So one felt super bad and gave the other a scarf and this notebook. One thought that it would be a super good idea to write in it to all of the group. So she did. She gave it to another girl and said. "Read it and write to our friends." So she wrote in it and passed it on to me right after school. Best day of my life I bet. :) So I took it home for the weekend, read it and wrote in it. I put all of our friends names on the front and passed it down on Monday. (It really is the greatest.) We all don't have classes together or lunch. Like for me I never EVER see my friend Sam at school. This is why we had the Sisterhood Notebook. We wrote what happened in our day, who we like, who we miss. Everything. We wrote small notes to each person sometimes, put in or draw a funny picture. Laugh at funny memories. It was the best. Everyone got a day to have it. Then when you had it you read what everyone has said and write your own. We wrote back to the people with our own little messages on their page of writing. It was a big mess in their. But it was great. We never fought when we had the Sisterhood. We knew what everyone was doing. What was upsetting them or making them happy. We did this thoughout all of 8th grade. It was so cool and so well known in our school that other people tried to make their own Sisterhood Notbeook and people tried to steal it and read it. We felt so cool. :) I know we are dorks.

Then at the very end of the school year we got in a fight. A big one. And with the fight and school ending the Sisterhood kinda just stopped. My friend Maddy took it home for the summer. We didn't see it for a while...But guess what I saw today? In Lexi and Maddys locker. Looking so worn but so great. In all of it's great great glory. I saw...

THE SISTERHOOD NOTEBOOK!!

It is going around again. During the summer, when we didn't have the Sisterhood Notebook, we got in fights a lot. And we had a lot of drama. I am just super happy 'bout this! It is the funniest thing. I get it next on Tuesday and I am super happy. :)

So I know this post was very strange and unusual. But that is my happies for the weekend!

Long Time No See, Sisterhood. Glad you are back.:)

I am always catching up!!! :)

2010-10-09T22:21:00.000-07:00

Day 7: ex-crush:)

mmm....I haven't really liked that many people before. But I am super glad because the people that I tend to like I have become really good friends. Even if I stop liking them I am still good friends.:)

Day 8: Crazy, Old, funny, cool, exc. Picture!

This is of me a couple of years ago with a hummingbird. It was really cool because the hummingbird was stuck in my garage so I picked a lot of different flowers to see if it would smell them and come to suck it so I could help it out of the garage. I found out that the hummingbird loved these purple flowers. It was really cool.

Day 9: What did u do today?

2010-10-06T06:23:00.000-07:00

So I forgot to do day 3...or 4...or 5... So on to day six!! This one might be a smidge long because I have to catch up...Yay!
Day 3: Your Parents
Dear Mom and Fat Head, :) I pretty much have the most amazing parents. You are so remarkable. I love how I can get home from school and gush (Aunt Natalie word!) out everything that has happened in school to you. I can really talk to you guys about anything...and everything. I feel bad for my friends that say they can't tell their parents anything. It must be hard. Even if it is just "Mom guess what!! I stubbed my toe running at Gym." or "Dad, when I was hanging out we went to the park and swang!" (swang? swung? swinged?) I don't care. :) I really love you and am so grateful for you. Thanks for listening to my blabber Mom and Dad:)
LoveLove: Shay!

Day 4: Siblings! :)
Dear Sibling, I love you to death!! Really I don't know what I would do without you. You have lived at home. Then at college than at home again. Then gone. You are gone right now and I always just expect to see you there. You usually are because your apartment doesn't get internet connection:) haha! Well I am glad. You have had it hard. I feel bad for you. I haven't made it easier coming to you everyday asking for you to get me a Keva. Anyway, even though you go through a lot you are happy just the same. That is what I love about you. You come to the house with a smile and run up and get excited to tell us about a funny story!! It really makes me happy. I know life is tough. I just wanted to tell you I love you! Thanks for being such a great sibling!

Day 5: Dreams
Dear Scary Nightmare, please go away. We have an annual thing where you come to me once a year. This has been going on for around 5ish years? You scare me. I can't really even describe you. Something about me missing something and ending the world. I don't know. All I know is that when I wake up I feel very guilty and bad about myself. I did something wrong. That is one of my worst feelings. I HATE doing something wrong and feeling guilty or bad or stupid. But alas, that is how you make me feel. I don't like you. Love, Shayla
Dear Happy Dreams, You are a lot better than my nightmares. I love my dreams. You are usually about me being with my friends. Seeing people I haven't seen for a while. Things like that. Sometimes you are about food. Actually, you are about food a lot. I should probably get a bedtime snack before I go to bed, eh? Well you are great. Just wanted to let you know:)

Day 6: (now that we have caught up!) A stranger

Dear Stranger, Oh you give me and my friends such funny memories. We were going to go toilet paper our friend. But the walk down to her house was very long and we didn't want to look suspicious so we stuck to toilet paper in our jackets. When we realized that our friend was still awake and all her house lights were up we decided not to tp anymore. The toilet paper was not comfy in our jackets so walking back to my church, where my mom was to give us a ride home, a car came up and a very strange lady rolled down the window. She decided to accuse us of toilet papering someone.
"What are you doing with that Toilet Paper Ladies??" She asked. I didn't want to seem like a bad teenage kid I replied
"Oh. We are just going to the church." The lady gave me a very strange look and drove off. My friends started laughing saying that she probably thought we were going to toilet paper the church!!:) so to you, toilet paper Lady. Thanks for the memories!!:)
Love, Shayla!

Day 2: Someone you think is secretly cute

2010-10-02T11:37:00.001-07:00

Dear Boy,
You probably don't know who I am. It is okay. I have had a couple of classes with you but I don't think I have ever said anymore to you than "What page do we turn to?" in English class! haha. You are super cool. We should be friends. Deal? deal! :)
_______________________________________________

The Newest David and Lexi!!!!!

2009-08-10T14:09:00.000-07:00

okay...so i know that i said it was over. But i am still going to write about Lexis life!! :D :D. sooo.... heres the update! this is a very worthwhile post... you HAVE to read it!

While David and lexi are still falling apart, Danny and Lexi have never been closer unfortunately... Lexi is having second thoughts about who she should love. She denies she likes david, second guesses danny and thinks about other boys like..... the gambler, Tal eddie, and fire man. these secret loves are straining lexi and dannys relationship. What will she do next? Tune in next week for the update on danny, tal eddie, the gambler, and fire man.
p.s. these people are REAL boys. not just fake names. :D :D

this has been a journalistic report by...my employee, cousin and friend: Kadie Smoot

The very first time Lexi met "the gambler" was in keyboarding. Lexi would type secret messages to the gambler instead of doing assignments. that is why she got a D in that class.
the gambler would always gamble with girl's hearts, and it wasn't any different with Lexi. he hated her guts. he would make fun of her, tease her, call her a jerk, and yet, Lexi was still madly, passionately in LOVE with him. There was no denying it. Everyone knew. the gambler didn't care that Lexi loved him, because he was in love with some of Lexi's best friends. Lexi learned to deal with it, but she still cries at night when she thinks of him. Overall she really believed that she might like him more than even Danny! But she decided to have a secret name for this lover. She named him... The Gambler!

Tal Eddie was the sweetest, kindest, most lovable person of the four boys. He would never hurt a fly, but still managed to break Lexi's heart. He had a slight unibrow and shortness problem, but Lexi found ways to see over that. She grew to love his eyebrows and even tried them on herself. It didn't work so well. One night, after a long hard day of school, Tal Eddie decided it was time to loose those nasty eyebrows that he was proud of. He went home, and secretly plucked the unibrow. Even though he was not the most handsome, they still had many things in common. Tal Eddie hurt Lexi's feelings, everytime Lexi said she loved him. He wouldn't tell Lexi who he liked, and this bothered Lexi. When he finally did, Tal Eddie said he liked another girl. Lexi was heartbroken. She decided to forget this terrible moment, and give a secret name to help cope with the broken-hearted-illness. She named him... Tal Eddie!

the Fireman was a short, popular, crazy dude. he was friends with almost everyone, though most everyone didn't like him. He had a secret crush on Lexi from the beginning, and so did Lexi. They didn't admit it to each other, until the end of the year. They fell in love with each other. After being best friends all year, they decided they had REAL love. But it soon began going downhill. Something had changed. Lexi was still madly in love, but she didn't know why the Fireman was acting so strange around her. the Fireman and Lexi were fighting. Lexi would come to school with red, puffy eyes, from being on the phone with Fireman all night. Even though they occasionally still fight, the Fireman claims he loves Lexi more than ever. But Lexi knew he had changed. She decided that she must forget him, and so she made him a secret name.
She named him..... The Fireman!

Danny and Lexi had been best friends and lovers since the beginning. Danny was a year older, yet very flirty. He had a crush on Lexi's very best friend, for years. But Lexi still had hope. She never stopped liking him, and they had gone out for a long time. Until David happened. Danny and Lexi's relationship have been strained every since David.... then came those other three lovers. Lexi is still madly in love with Danny (like the other three boys) but Danny still is having other loves with OTHER people!!! Lexi has never lost hope, and keeps making moves and showing off to make Danny like her. It hasn't worked so far.

Signing off, Maddy Grant....my friend and colleuge and.... LOCKER PARTNER!!! the officer.

wait until next week when us 3 Shayla Smoot, Kadie Smoot, and Maddy Grant (adopted smoot) will write about the newest update of Lexis life.

Comment to VOTE your opinion on who SHE SHOULD CHOOSE!!!! VOTE TODAY!!!

p.s. we will be changing the name of the title. It won't be David and Lexi anymore because David is history. But on the labels it will still be called Lexi and David!!! But the title will now be called Lexis Life!!!!!

The END of David and Lexi!!!!!!!!!

2009-06-27T09:35:00.000-07:00

A HORRIBLE HORRIBLE thing has happened to Lexi-used to be-Archuleta!!!!!!!!!! SHE DOESN'T LIKE DAVID ARCHULETA ANY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and every hates Danny whatever his last name is. he is a creeper. Lexi totally is NOT obsessed she said she wants to be a normal girl. So no interviews. She doesn't want to be known as the David Archuleta obsessed girl anymore. Everything has come down. The posters, the songs, the bags everything. She won't even talk to David anymore. And he has no idea why. But the saddest part about this little tale is that she had a braclet that said David Archuleta and had hearts on it and everything. That braclet broke right down the middle of the heart!!!! So there is no more Lexi Erickson-Archuleta. Now everyone say hello to just plain old not Archuleta loving Lexi Erickson!!!!!

and p.s. Danny and Lexi are now going out. BARF!!!!

Noah Baker: what a good friend

2009-04-23T19:39:00.000-07:00

I have posted a thing about one of my best friends, Noah Baker and what happened. Well I am going to go and tell a few things about his life. I am really missing him today and i think it will help if i write so things about him.

He was always so a nice, friendly guy. There is few people that don't like him. And he was hysterical. We had a lot of inside jokes. I remember one day. Just a few weeks before he passed away i was at his house and we were watching a movie (for young womens. :D) and he was there. We had this inside joke where he would always said "nice hair" to me cause one day he went up to my house at like 9:00 a.m. on fast sunday and my hair was a total disaster. I was wearing like a tank top and all. he looked at me, smiled and said "hey shayla, I like your hair." I screamed in suprise that he was at my house and ran downstairs to go change. haha. but at his house we were laughing about how many inside jokes we have and my friend Heidi was confused and asked us "what is an inside joke" with a really funny expression and then that became an inside joke between me, Noah and Heidi.

he was such a wonderful person to be around. He always complimented people that even he didn't like. I remember when i was having a bad day he would always make me smile and laugh. I loved being around him.

He suffered his whole life with a bad heart. Every year he had a surgery and he couldn't ever play contact sports (which was hard for him.) But he had such a good additude. the day before he went into his surgery this year and told him how sorry i felt for him that he had to go. He looked at me and said "why do you feel sorry. I love my surgeries. You always get the best food in the hospital room and you can play video games all day. It hurts but i love it!" he had such a good additude.

Alyssa Baker (his sister) when she was baring her testimony last summer she told us that he worried like no boy should. Noah was sooooo close to his sister. They WERE best friends. I never, not once saw them fight. I wish it was like with my family. My mom told me she always felt a kinda tender feeling when she was around him (she has a wierd sense of who is going to pass away soon.) and she told me she always thought him as a little Joseph Smith. Although i never did. he was too "Noah" for me. :D. He was a very spiritual person and when he gave talks he actually talked from his heart instead of his mouth. (no teenager really does that.)

I love Noah Baker and i can't describe how much i miss him. Love you Noah "Nice Hair" :D!!!

please keep the Bakers in your prayers!

Lexi and David: Going out

2009-04-03T17:44:00.000-07:00

Sorry it has been forever since I have written Danny hasn't allowed me to!!!!! He is really kind but...... doesn't like US very much haha. But Lexi likes him so........ Here is the story for today!!! Lexi and Danny have been going out for a few weeks and it is doing good. They had their first fight yesterday so we don't really know yet if t hey are happy with each other. They are still going out though. Danny wanted Lexi to stay for spring break but Lexi really wanted to go with her family on a trip (she didn't tell Danny that they were going to be going to a David Archuleta concert though!) But that wasn't the fight. Danny wanted Lexi to stay home by herself so they could be together during spring break (Danny is kinda clingy) :) But Lexi told him that she was going to spend time with her family. And he got upset!!! (I think he has a anger problem!!!!!!!) haha!!!!! But Lexi is with her family on spring break and Danny is at home being lonely (stupid!) haha!

But as for Lexi's ex David Archuleta he is doing FABULOUS!!!! He was sad that Lexi broke up with him but he had a career to think about so that is getting his mind off of it. But the sweet thing is that he hasn't got another girlfriend yet. And Lexi is going to tell me all about the concert soon but I think that Lexi Erickson still likes David. Even if it is a tiny little itty bitty bit, deep deep deep DEEP down in her heart I still think that Lexi likes David. I little bit at least. But she is going with Danny.....whatever!!!

I will write back soon about the concert. Have a fun spring break! :)

Lexi and David: Dannys mine!!

2009-03-14T13:38:00.000-07:00

And Lexi has chosen her guy. She has chosen Danny. She likes Danny and broke up with David. David is way way way way sad. But he will get over it. Lexi realized that Danny is the one for her. She told me in a interview yesterday

"I am going out with Danny now. And nothing is going to break us apart. He is so sweet, cute, funny, and he is mine!"

So thats that. David A. is officially out of her life forever. (or at least for now.)
I talked to Danny (or at least tried to talk to him. He doesn't like us very much. Doesn't like us spreading his story about Lexi and him all around.) He didn't tell us much but he did tell us that he was actually very jealous of David and doesn't like him very much.

Lexi and Danny were on a date. We left. (Danny wanted us to.) But we hid and recorded their whole date. Here is some of it.

Danny:Oh Lexi you are so pretty tonight.

Lexi: Thanks Danny. And sorry about the whole blog story thing. I did it when i was going out with David. And I guess they still want to write stories about it.

Danny: It is okay. David was a celebrity. Sure they want a story about his ex girlfriend. You are pretty amazing.

Lexi: aaaawwww thanks.

Danny pays for the dinner. They go out to a movie. he pays of everything, calls her pretty 3 more times and when he drops her off at her house he opens the door for her.

We have told you this because we want to let you know how much of a gentleman Danny is. Even though he doesn't like the blog he is still a very nice guy.

But the thing is. David wants Lexi back.

In Memory of My Good Friend: Noah Baker

2009-01-08T08:23:00.000-08:00

My good friend passed away yesterday at 6:00 p.m. His whole life he had a bad heart and couldn't do much contact sports, and he had a heart surgery about every year. But yesterday he went unconcious on a paper route with is sister. When they took him to the hospital he went on life support, because he went brain dead. They waited until 6:00 to take him off. He passed away at 6:00

Noah was such a good kid. And we hung out with him all the time. He is my neighbor and in my ward. He was such a good friend of mine. I remember one fast sunday he came to my house at about 9:00 to do fast offerings. My hair was a mess and I was wearing a tank top. When he saw me I screamed "OH NO" and ran down stairs. At church that day he went up to me and said "Nice hair." so then on everytime we see each other. (even if we are across the hall away.) We scream to them "Nice Hair." He was so fun to be around. And I will miss him so much.

But I know I will see him again. And I know everything will be alright. I doesn't seem like that right now. It seems as though I will be sad for a very very very long time. But not forever. Once I pass away as well I will see him again. I feel especially much sorrow for the The Baker Family. So please have them in your prayers.

i love you all
Shayla

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!

2008-12-26T22:34:00.000-08:00

YAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is Christmas!!!!! yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah yah!!!!!!!!!!! :)
I love christmas... as you can tell. I love the holiday break (I needed it.) I love the new coat I got and new cute boots. I love the stories of Jesus and the Nativity scene. I love my new ihome and ipod gift card. I love my Taylor Swift cd (I love her music!!!!). I love my perfume and clothes I got. I love my socks (I actually needed socks.) I love the new Rock Band video game my dad suprised us with. I love the snow... Well I actually don't really love the snow right now because it is too cold :). And so I say again... I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are family had a awesome christmas. Even though when we opened presents there was only 4 kids. It felt really small since now all of my sisters have left the house. My brother came home from school though. That was fun. His birthday is actually tomorrow on the 27th. HAPPY BIRTHDAY STAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This winter all of my friends have gone sledding a lot. We usually go at "Cheese Park." There is a HuGe hill there. And one day when all of my friends were sledding done it we found a plastic garbage bag. We got the idea of using it as a sled. We all took turns sledding done the hill in the bag. And it went speedy fast. We had a lot of fun. And at the very end on the last ride down we all scrunched in the bag and went down the hill. I probably lost most of my hearing because there was 4 other girls screaming (with very high pitched voices.) :)

The Christmas season has gone by so fast. I have had a wonderful time though. And I hope I have as much fun thoughout the whole winter!!!!!! CYA!!!

Lexi & David / Danny or David???

2008-12-13T13:02:00.000-08:00

Hello people. I have some big and very exciting news!!! The story of Lexi and David is now weekly!!! I well be writing about the cute couple once a week!! But here is the new scoop!

Last week Lexi was in for some drama. She was choosing over the two. David Archuleta (WOW!!! he is cute.) or a neighbor boy named Danny. But when I quoted her saying "I like someone more than my David." She freaked! She corrected me and said that she likes someone just as much as her David. Not more. So now she has to choose. Danny or David??? So please comment so you can help Lexi choose!!!

Lexi & David... The breakup!!

2008-12-06T13:39:00.000-08:00

Lexi and David have been doing well but I guess not well enough. I have talked to Lexi and she has told me a lot!!

Quote "Shayla... I like someone more then my David!!" Lexi said as we walked down the hall at school.

She told me that she like this neighbor boy (which i was asked not to reveal because of plablicity.) So Lexi is a big problem. Who should she go for. David who has been her favorite for a long time will no doubt get a new girl. Because he is gorgeous of course. But her new crush might not. Should she take her chances with this neighbor boy??? (She is not even shore if he likes her.) or Stay with her David. Who if she leaves him will probably won't give her another chance if it doesn't work out with the neighbor. So i will talk to Lexi and see who she will choose.

and by the way if you haven't read the whole Lexi & David story go on to my labels on the right and click on Lexi and David!! have fun!

It is finally here. The day of Lexi and Davids date!! We got many comments on what we should do and they were good ones. So listen to there date.

But before I tell you about it I have to tell you sorry that the picture of David and Lexi is so small and Lexi has asked to not have a picture of her face so I had to scribble on her face. Sorry.l Kay now on to the date. But just for the record Lexi is 16 at this time!

David picked Lexi up to go the mall first. Then they stopped to eat at the Mandrin. While they were at the Mandrin Lexi interviewed him for her new biography about him. Then they went to Davids concert. after that Lexi and David knew that they were meant to be together forever. they texted and called each other constantly. Lexi felt like she was in HEAVEN!!! and listen to this. Lexi and David were so pleased with there first date that they are allowin us to have EVERY one of there dates to be on our blog. So we are going to call this Lexi and David every so often I will blog about how there dates and life is going.

Okay bye for now

A post dedicated to Lexi Archuleta

2008-10-25T10:33:00.000-07:00

I have gotten the inside scoop on who David Archuleta is going to marry. You know the amazingly cute, LDS, American Idol boy. Yah I now know who he is going to marry. It hasn't even come out on the media yet. Her name is...(drum roll please.) daddadadadadadadadadadada

Lexi soon to be Lexi Archuleta.

Lexi and David are MADLY in love. :)
They are about 3 years apart which is good because it gives David time to go on a mission while she... goes to high school. They are planning to get married which will be when Lexi graduates. And her David comes home off of his mission. But first they need to meet each other and go on a date.

My blog smileysmoot is pleased to announce that Lexi and David have given our site permission to do the date. All the plans. Where they go and what they do. Everything.

But we need your help. Soon to be Lexi Archuleta wants this date to be perfect. And if we make it the perfect date then we will be able to do all of there dates. It will be a new segment on teh blog called Lexi & David.

But even before we can have that we need there date to be perfect. So hurry and comment and tell me what we should do for there first date. I will post soon on what they did.

Time to talk!

WAHOO my older siblings are moving OUT my siblings are moving out! Ha ha Just kidding. I am so sad because my sister and brother are moving out. It is going to be so quiet at the house. (Which NEVER happens.) My older sister Synthia is going on a mission to Uraguay and my brother Stan is going to college at Utah State. Stan is counting down the days!! ha ha. Well goodbye synthia and stan and hello...

SCHOOL!!!!!! I am going to be in Junior High. I am so excited. Me and my locker partner Brooklin Powell are going to decorate are lockers today. i got my schedule about a week ago and it is pretty okay classes. But any of you that have gone to Centerville Junior High you know the teacher named Mrs. Keeler! My locker partner Brooklin and I were exploring the school and when we talked to Mrs. Keeler because we both have her she seemed pretty nice. But at school a
lot of people tell us that he eyes bleed! I guess i will have to figure out at school! :) But something very wierd is that she is in my sisters ward!!!!!

Well I am so excited for school! I also am very sad for my older siblings leaving me! Everyone is leaving me this year. Synthia, Stan, ALL the Mckassons, one of my friends!!!! so sad. Oh well I will see them again.

Well seeya and hope you have a good time where ever you are going today

2008-08-03T11:15:00.000-07:00

Check out my sister marys blog right now!!! HURRY!!!! http://www.mbfox.blogspot.com/ they have great new news!!!

What is up??

2008-08-01T13:47:00.000-07:00

This summer has been very busy and I haven't had that much time to talk about things on my blog! So i have blogged a few blogs for you to read! Here are the things!
Shopping for school supplies!
Girls night Out!
At the library
Court of Honor!

So hurry and read them!!

At the library!

2008-08-01T11:26:00.000-07:00

Is that more then enough of books to check out from the library? NO! Well not for my best friend Lori Krammer! My best friend Lori is a book fanatic and yesterday I went to the library with her. She checked out 22 books and I checked out 16. But the funny thing is that I hate the books that she reads and she hates the books that I read!

SHOPPING!!!!!!

2008-08-01T10:57:00.000-07:00

I have been saving up for two things this summer! 1. For school supplies/clothes. And for a laptop!So I jsut went shopping with my mom to buy all of this!! Don't look at my messy hair or my messy room!Tell me which outfit you like the best!

Court of Honor

2008-07-31T13:03:00.001-07:00

Yesterday we had stans court of honor. Usually these courts of honor aren't the most exciting things in the world! But Stans was really good. The spirit was so strong. Robbie Gunter (Stans varsity football coach.) gave a talk and so did Rick Stapler. My mom gave an exellent slide show. With two songs in the background. Wind beneath my wings and Somewhere over the rainbow! It was an amazing slide show. My mom worked really hard trying to get it all done in time! Sta was able to give someone a pin for being the best leader or mentor for him! He chose Roland Trump which was very special. Roland is now in a wheel chair because of an illness called lou gerics diesease. Then after that Roland gave advice for Stan and the advice was. "Be at the right place at the right time doing what you are suppose to be doing." If everyone was at the right place at the right time doing what they are suppose to be doing. Life would be a lot easier! At closing Cody Fraughton said the prayer. Wow. That is all I have to say about this prayer! The Court of Honor was amazing. Better then any others!

Girls Night Out!!!!

2008-07-31T12:01:00.000-07:00

GIRLS NIGHT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WAAHOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S in this picture my friend brooklin, the one with the blonde hair that looks like it isn't done. Yah she was in the middle of getting her hair done when we took this picture!! And sam at the girls night out! Yes I know! :/

My sister Synthia was so kind and sweet that she hosted a girls night out with just me and my friends! She did this because she wanted to do something special with me before she leaves on her mission! We both decided that it would be fun to just invite a few of my friends! Not that I don't love all of my group of friends but it would take a while just to do 4 girls hair and nails and makeup. That is me after She did my hair up at the top! So I just invited 3 girls, Brooklin, Raygan, and Lori! Lori didn't want her hair done. But oh well!
Me and my friend Brooklin wanted to do facemasks! Don't we look good standing so still with are cucumbers. Well we kinda had too because the cucumbers kept slipping off! And it would ruin are masks!! and fwi Brooklin the girl in the picture with me is going to be my locker partner! Me and Synthy chose out a cute chick flick and Synthias friend brought it. She needed help with the hair, nails and makeup! So she invited two of her friends! Candace Evans and Jessica Hunt! The chick flick we picked was Penelope! It looked a little wierd but it was actually way good!! I really liked it!

We had pizza with punch! And it was just a blast!! Thank you so much Synthia!!

So long, farwell!

2008-07-27T07:16:00.000-07:00

So long, farwell avedasa goodbye! Doo dala doo doo do do do, Doo dala do do dooo!

The picture was really nice and i really liked it but when I was about to put it on it said i couldn't!! I tried for about an hour trying to put different pictures on there! All the pictures I tried to put on there wouldn't work! So now I am stuck with this halfway done blog. I guess that is how it is going to be while I am at girls camp! Which is by the way tomorrow!

This summer she is VERY busy! right now she is being a junior leader at EFY! then the day that she comes home she flys out to Georgia to see are Aunt Natalie! A few days later once she comes home from Georgia are whole family goes to Twin Falls to see Erics Neilson are cousins home coming. I am so excited for Synthia to go on her mission because I know she will have a great time. (And I will get some of her jewlery!) Shana realize that I am saying "some!" But at the same time I know how much I will miss her! It is going to be super hard for me! But I know it is going to be fine! And I will be able to hear so amazing stories about the people she baptized! Synthia is leaving on Aug. 20th and her farwell is on the 17th. She is going to miss a lot of things here in little Centerville Utah! Like electricity, a home and oh yah...

2008-06-27T21:45:00.000-07:00

Well I have been working my tail off this summer for a new laptop! A very cute one that is. It is purple with blossoms on it! That picture is the one I really want! I am trying so hard to have enough money to buy it and enough money to get all the school clothes I want for 7th grade! I am working at my parents daycare right now. I am working 4 days a week for 6 hours a day! It is very hard. Especially today when I went to bed at 12:30 then got up at 5:30 to finish the dishes (that I was suppose to do the night before!) At 10:00 I went to the daycare and worked and played and solved problems and taught and helped the teacher and cleaned all of the toys and whatever you can think of until 4:00! But the kids are adorable... well some of them, some are very hard to deal with!! So for all of you that were thinking to yourselfs "I bet shayla right now is being lazy and hasn't worked all summer and is just hanging out with friends!" YOU ARE WRONG! Well kinda wrong! I have been lazy just a little itty bitty bit! Ha ha! Well wish me luck on my journey to getting money! Aren't we all on the journey to getting money though?

Here are some of my favorite pictures of my daddy! Isn't he such a stud! I need to appriciate him more! He is the BEST daddy in the world! I LOVE YOU DAD!

10 reasons why I love my father!!!

2008-06-15T10:42:00.000-07:00

Happy Fathers day everyone!!! I want to tell everyone why I love my father!!!! Well 10 reasons to be exact! These aren't in pericular order.

1. He is so determined to give us the best life possible.

2. He works so hard everyday and is so dang busy but when we ask him to do something or to go somewhere it seems like he has nothing squeduled. Almost always he will say sure when is it or when should we go and will clear his agenda for that time!

3. He has such a knowlege of the gospel that there is no way that I would ever doubt it myself or think that my father doubts it.

4. He teaches us how to work, be capable, determined, make a living, and suceed everytime!

5. Even on a hard day at work he still comes home with a smile and a hug for me!

6. He can be strict about things that are good for us and he can be so calm and nice.

7. He loves us no matter what we do.

8. He has the funniest expressions.

9. Some people haven't been around him that much but if you have you know he says "Zing Zing Zing THere and that Shayler" or what ever your name is if will put an "er" behind it!!

10. He is the coolest dad I have ever seen!!!!

I love my dad so much!!! My dad and my mom are my heroes! They are amazing. I hope you tell your dad how much you love him today! He deserves it!!!

Jackson and the Hummingbird!

2008-06-08T21:28:00.000-07:00

So this weekend Me, Synth and Kaylee went to Jackson hole to visit the newly wedded Adrienne and Scott! It was such a blast. Let me tell you what we did. We got there at like midnight on Friday and watched a little bit of The little Mermaid. On Saturday we hiked up to an amazing water fall and went to a funny cowboy dinner and watched the little mermaid so more. Then on Sunday we went to church then had the best dinner I have ever eaten made by Adriennne and Scott. Then went home. I loved it. Thanks so much Adrienne and Scott!

Next the Hummingbird. On thursday I was working in the yard with my mom but decided I wanted a "break." So I was walking along the outside of my house wondering what I should do when I heard so noise in the garage I went inside and realized there was a hummingbird in our garage. He didn't know how to get out the dumb bird. I felt pity on the bird thinking how to help him out. He would not come down far enough to see that all the garage doors were open. Finally I thought that the best way to get him down was by getting a flower and guiding the hummingbird out the door with the scent of the flower (I bet you are thinking right now "Hey shayla is pretty smart." and to answer your question. YES! I am smart.) So while my mom was in the back yard planting some flowers I picked some of her flowers in the front yard. I got on a chair and lifted the flower up as high as I could. To my suprise the hummingbird smelled it and soon was sucking on the flower. I brought the flower closer and closer to the garage door so the hummingbird would fly out. But he never would see it. Soon my mom came with a camera and took pictures of me with the hummingbird sucking on the flower. It was so amazing becuase the hummingbird got so close to me that once I had to duck so the hummingbird wouldn't touch me. I could see the designs on his belly and his black dotted eyes. He was inches from my face and his wings were a fan on me. Soon I found a way to guide him out of the garage and free, out of the garage. It was so cool to have that experiance. I don't know exactly where my mom's camera is right now so I can't get the pictures of the hummingbird next to me. But my mom has one picture on her blog if you want to see. If you don't know her adress to her blog there is a link on my blog! If I can find my moms camera I will show pictures soon!

Love you all! Shayla Smoot

My new book Princess Me!!

2008-05-24T12:19:00.001-07:00

Okay I have been writing a book for some time now. It is called Princess Me! I am on page 67. I decided that I want to put some of the book on my blog! each week or so I will put 2 chapters. I am so happy because their is so many people I know that are english magers or are really good at that kind of thing so there is so many people that have edited my book. Here is the first two chapters of Princess Me!! Sorry about the wierdness I don't know how to fix it!!

Saria went to the advanced school in the Northern part of the
country, Marge, a long time ago. Even before they had cars or
light bulbs.
“Hi Saria!” Emily called. Saria was her best friend.
“Hi Emily!” said Saria. “I am so mad we have to go back to school this week.”
“You are?” Emily asked surprised. “I love school!”
“You what!” Saria screamed. “Did you just say you loved school?”
“Well . . .”
Before Emily could finish her sentence the teacher came out
to get her students for advanced class.
“School is the worst thing in Marge,” Saria said. Emily rolled her eyes.
“Today, class, we are going to learn about politeness,” said Mrs. Burrank. There are two teachers at Marge Elementary. Mrs. Burrank is very old and wrinkly. She is kind of fat, too. Ms. Banks is very young and pretty. She is not wrinkly at all. Everybody loves her. Mrs. Burrank is teaching today.
There are six girls in the class. They all used to go to a regular school, but six were picked to go to an advanced class.
“So, class . . .” said Mrs. Burrank. “Does anyone know what politeness is?” While Saria was thinking, Patricia raised her hand.
“Yes Patricia, what is politeness?” said Mrs.Burrank.
“It’s when you could say something really mean or say some food is nasty but you don’t and you keep quiet,” said Patricia.
“Good. Can someone give an example?” asked Mrs. Burrank. Saria raised her hand almost immediately. “Yes, Saria tell us. You barely ever raise your hand. Go on!”
“Okay,” Saria started. “I am being polite by not telling you how fat you are.” Saria felt proud of herself.
Mrs. Burrank was happy but not anymore! Mrs. Burrank’s face was bright red. Next thing Saria knew she was in the front of the class with her hands out. Mrs. Burrank was going to whip her for that comment. That day was May 1st and last month she got whipped eighteen times.
“Saria, why do you think you are going to get whipped today?” Mrs. Burrank asked.
“Because I called you fat?” Saria answered. The girls giggled. Mrs. Burrank gave them a good long glare.
She whipped Saria two times on each hand. It wasn’t too bad once you got used to it Saria thought. But still her eyes welled up with tears.
“Break!” Mrs. Burrank called to the class as she sat down. She was really frustrated. They all left their seats. Saria ran outside to go play with Emily. She tried not to think about the pain. That is why Saria does not like Mrs. Burrank.

Chapter 2 Tony and Brad
On the way home almost every girl told Saria how funny she was and that they were sorry about the whipping. Saria was really happy that all of the girls thought she was funny that she decided to do a little dance! She danced and she danced. It was the weirdest dance Emily had ever seen. Once Emily and Saria had turned the corner Saria saw Tony walking down the path. Saria stopped dancing at once. She started fixing her hair and straightening her skirt. “What are you doing?” Emily asked almost laughing. “SSHH! It’s Tony.” She said. “Oh Tony.” Emily smirked and rolled her eyes. But then she saw Brad walking by Tony. She started looking for a place to hide. Then it was Saria’s time to laugh. She didn’t even have to ask. She knew Emily liked Brad. But she also knew how shy Emily was. Emily realized there was only one way to hide so she did it. She pulled her skirt way up to her head so you could see her underclothes. They were polka dotted pink and purple!
“Don’t do that!” said Saria. “You are going to embarrass me!” Emily put her skirt down. “Do we have to talk to them?” “Of course!” Saria said. “If you like Brad why don’t you want to talk to him?” “Because I don’t think you have noticed but I’m shy!” Emily said biting her nails. “Wow, that is a big shock.” Saria replied waving her hands.
By then Brad and Tony were about to walk by and Saria was
getting really nervous. They barely ever got a chance to talk to them. Oh no they are coming already. Saria thought to herself.
“Hey Emily, Hey Saria!” said Brad. Then Emily almost fainted. “ Yeah Hey Saria, Hey Emily.” Tony said. Then Saria almost fainted too.
“Oh yeah, Hey you guys.” Saria replied. Brad and Tony were two of the six advanced boys of the town too. “Did you guys
barely get out of advanced lessons?” Tony asked. “Yeah.” Saria and Emily both said together. “We got out an hour ago.” Brad said. “We would have gotten out sooner, but Saria got us all in trouble.”
Emily replied glancing at Saria smiling. Saria knew Emily wasn’t
mad. “What did you do Saria?” Tony asked surprised. “She called
Mrs. Burrank fat. “You what?” asked Tony, trying not to smile.
He couldn’t though. He laughed and laughed. Then Brad started to laugh and laugh. Then Emily started to laugh and laugh. Then
Saria started to laugh and laugh as well.
Emily told them that Saria had to be whipped. Then Mrs. Burrank made us write two pages on how fat was a bad word and how it wasn’t ladylike. Saria told them how all the girls all started giggling and so Mrs. Burrank made it three pages.
“Isn’t Mrs. Burrank a gem?” Saria replied sarcastically. “Well I bet you she is better than Mr. Corn.” Brad said sticking his tongue out to show how much he disliked Mr. Corn. The girls laughed. Saria thought Emily laughed a little too much than normal and she thought Brad noticed.
There was a pause. They felt a little uncomfortable. “What is your other teacher’s name?” Saria finally said to break up the silence. “His name is Mr. Kensh.” Tony replied.
“Guess what?” Brad said. “A new kid came to our class. His name is Tynon. I think he is from Oklor.” “Is he cute?” Emily said not realizing who she was talking to. “Uh…Never mind please don’t answer that question.” She said pounding her head, which meant (I cannot believe I just said that.) Well Brad and Tony thought it was funny and started to laugh. Then Saria and Emily started to laugh too. Soon Brad’s Mother came on her carriage and asked them if they would like a ride.
Sarias father is the mayor. Tony’s father is the sword maker. Emily’s father is the town Baker. And Brad’s father is the counselor to the mayor. On the way home Brad’s Mother asked Saria to bring her father a letter. The mother looked a little worried. Maybe it was about the letter Saria thought for a moment but brushed it off her mind a few minutes later when they got to her house. The girls thanked Brad’s Mother said bye to Brad and Tony and went into Saria’s house to do there essay.

Soon I will put the next two chapters!! Hope you liked it!!!

Life is good

2008-05-03T09:38:00.000-07:00

My family has hard times and great times. This last year or so has been a definite hard time. Many things have struck us right when we were almost done healing from another hard thing. During the summer Seth Fraughton (my brothers best friend.) passed away in bear lake. My brother was there with him when it happened. That was a really hard time. It was hard for Seths parents. It was hard for Stan to get over it. It was hard for my parents to see him so sad. It was even hard for me. I couldn't stand have everyone so sad.

Once we thought everything was going to be okay my older sister Shana's little girl was a still born. She was 8 months pregnant. When I found out I thought I was dreaming I said to myself "This can not be. We just had one hardship god will not let this happen." Well it wasn't a dream. It was all real. That was a hardship as well. Shana has moarned and moarned for her child. My mother and father for there granddaughter. And my whole family for there little niece.

I know there has been many hardships in life and there still is. Stan still misses his best friend and Shana still grieves over the loss of her baby girl. But with all that god doesn't let us just grieve forever he gives us miracles to show us that it will be okay. He give Shana miracles by showing her a lily flower every so often. Because she named her little girl Lily for Shana it is like lily is coming and saying hello. He gave Stan a miracle by making shore Stan didn't die with Seth. He made it that on a football game they won by 33 points. Seth was an amazing football player and his jersey was 33.

This last year has been tough in our family. But now I am realizing life is good. Here is a quote my mother loves but I don't think it is word for word though. Life isn't about waiting for a storm to pass it is about learning to dance in the rain. I love my family and I love that quote. Please know that I love you all and that even if really Really REALLY hard things happen there is good things to come.

In Las Vegas

2008-04-20T17:17:00.000-07:00

Sorry I haven't been posting much Latey. We have been in Las Vegas. We are STILL in Las Vegas. It is so much fun. Synthia is getting her mission call on tues. and we will still be in Las Vegas. On Friday she will have a party and tell everyone what it is. We went to a aquarium yesterday and it was SSOO cool! The cieling was a tank and so was the floor. Tomorrow we are going to go to the starosphere which if you don't know is the 4 Highest and Scariest rides in America. Have you ever wanted to kill one or two of your family members? Well I have and I have wanted to on this trip. But even though I have had a few fights this trip is been amazing and I have LOVED it. I will show you pics once I get back.

My Experience

2008-04-13T10:29:00.001-07:00

This last week or so I have had some troubles feeling good about myself. People at school have not been bullying really but just have put me down. Even my friends have put me down a little. Yesterday expecially I felt so bad about myself I even cried. I woke up the next morning and just had to go on a bike ride. To talk to myself a little. I rode about half a mile and went to the cemetary. I liked how peaceful it was there. I was at the cemetary for about 30 min. Then I went up to go home. While I walked my bike up a big hill that I was not planning to go up. And had really never gone up before I saw something that caught my eye. I saw a little garden full of dead plants and weeds, but in the middle I saw something very interesting. I saw 1 tall flower in the middle no weeds on it not dying but just a beuatiful flower growing tall. Then these words came to mind. Don't let the weeds pull you down. Rise up and be yourself. I felt so peaceful and happy. The lord had showed me what to do. I felt good. We can be like that flower and not care about all of the weeds or mean people that try and take us down. We can rise up and just be are selves. It might not help you so much but I feel so happy and peaceful. I love how the lord helps us in these ways.

Genaral Conference

2008-04-09T20:36:00.000-07:00

Genaral Conference was a blast! I have never really listened to a talk before I was just drawing there face instead. This year I sat down and listended. I tried to type my story that I was working on but half the time I found myself not doing my story at all and listening. I guess I am just growing up. YAH! I really liked Elder M. Russel Ballard's talk
1. he talked about stuff I could understand and somehow relate to
2. This year I swear everything is going on at the exact same time during school. such as... Student council, Newspaper staff, homework, flute, my daily needs (shower sleep eat exc.) and just to have fun (I usually make the biggest porsion on having fun.) exc. and he talked about keeping your life not TOO busy.
3. He looks nice with his wrinkles and all.
there are a lot more I can say about the talk but it is almost 10:00 and I don't have my homeword done at all. P.S don't tell mom.

P.S.S I loved elder Ukdwarf if that is how you spell it. I liked his talk... and his funny acsent. and I also Loved Elder Monsons talks because he tells stories that are funny and nice.

Love ya and have a good night

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM!!!

2008-04-03T06:29:00.000-07:00

it was sam's birthday on March 31 and we had fun. I planned a treasure hunt for him and every clue was a present. Shana gave him a new parates of the Carabean bed set with glow in the dark stars and a kite. Mom and Dad gave him most of the stuff but they gave him... A airsoft gun. A gun that shoots smoke, a bublegum machine, transformers, hotwheels, and many other things that day. Other people gave him stuff too!

When he was little on his 3 or 4 birthday someone asked him what he wanted for his birthday and he said " 10 guns and 10 sords (swords). He said it in a funny way and we did that, that birthday. He got 10 guns and 10 swords.

I swear we have given him a million and 5 guns and swords every year but he still loves them like no other. If he gets a gun and he has it he won't let my mom take it back he says (it will be for my friends.)

Well I Just wanted to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAMMY!!!!!!!

p.s talking about birthdays it was shanas a little while ago and we called her at 6:00 to sing to her (like we always do.) and we sang the whole entire thing through and then we heard in a mad voice "I THINK YOU GOT THE WRONG NUMBER!!!!!!!" it was so funny!!!

bones Bones BONES!!! on Antelope island

2008-03-25T07:32:00.000-07:00

us together before we found the bones
sam playing swords with a couple of bones
the scull skaylar found
skylar holding the skull that wieghed a million pounds
me with bone

For family night we went to antelope island to play frisbee and run up the mountains,nut we didn't realize that it closed at 8:00. We got there at 7:00 and drove to find a dry spot for 30 min. after that we only had 30 min. left. As we were walking to the great salt lake sam spotted a stick. We soon realized it was a bison bone my mom found another under the ground and another and another until we could have made the whole bison. They coolest thing was skylar went a little ahead and spotted the whole entire scull. it was HUGE!!! one of the horns was as big as my foot. We even saw the teeth and everything. me and synthia found two thighs and we also found every back bone. We were paleantologists. Sam even played swords with some of the bones he found. It was amazing what we found. We saw antelope and bison that were alive there too! We ended up not playing frisbee or running but it was so fun.

Happy Easter!!!!!!!

2008-03-23T19:08:00.000-07:00

Happy easter you guys! This has been a wonderful easter! I got to hang out with the smoot cousins on Saturday and have a wonderful time with the immediate family on Sunday. Tonight I really really wanted to go on a easter egg hunt with money so I begged my dad to give me his loose change (because he wouldn't give me his dollar bills.) So I scambled $2.41 together and we went on a easter egg hunt. Me and Justin hid the eggs and Skylar, Sam, and Shana searched. It wasn't really what I expected for easter because we didn't get presents or a whole bunch of candy but the main thing I thought about today was family and christs reserection. I didn't think about toys and choclate bunnies, but how blessed I am to have the gospel in me and my familys live. How the savior suffered all of are sins and mistakes in the garden of gesemany and on the cross. How much I love being with my family. and how horrible it would be to never see your family again once they passed away. I love choclate bunnies and toys, but today I realized how much I love just being with my family and able to know the gospel.

A tribute to Pres. B Hinkley

2008-03-22T10:08:00.001-07:00

Pres. Hinkley I still can't belive he died. One of my New Years Resolution was to talk to Pres. Hinkley before the end of the year. Don't think thats going to happen. I told my mom this and she said "well don't die to complete the resolution." He tripled the temples we had when he was the pres.. One thing I loved about him was his humor. He used his cane not to walk but to talk with. One day he was in Japan and he said to his translator while he was waving he cane "I want you to give a good talk." He was an amazing President of the Chruch!

My Cousins

2008-03-20T15:34:00.000-07:00

I love my cousins. I got to sing in front of all the relief society presidents if they were still alive with my smoot cousins. I have like 11 girls around my age on the smoot side. It was such a neat experience! On the bradford side I feel like I am a grown up! I love both sides of my family. Every month the bradford side goes out to eat. It is very fun. I love my family. They are both so different and so the same. They are the best

I'm glad we have sun and bright blue skys.but sometimes I wonder
what about the penguins? I can almost see there sad teary eyes. Then I wonder what about the penguins? Is there snow melting? are they going to fry? what about the penguins? But then I think I shouldn't be sad I should be glad for those penguins. they will put there swimsuits on and they will swim until dawn. But then I think what about the penguin. The penguin that can not swim and all of his hopes to be cool are dim. So I think what about him. but then he sees jim, jim teaches him to swim.

The first one is amazing. Last night was shanas big b-day so we went to chilis. As we sat down shana noticed that the plant on are table was a lily. We looked around and that was the only table with a lily on it. It was like little lily was coming down to say to shana happy birthday mom I'm coming down to be with the family.

Another Tender Mercie is that my family is happy. We have are fights, (BIG FIGHTS) and quarrels but in the end we love each other.

This tender mercie isn't that big but it helped a lot. On monday me and all of my smoot cousins my age went to the relife society building. p.s. sorry about the spelling. we sang to all of the relife society presidents if they were still alive. That day I had a horse voice so it was hard to sing, but I am lucky because the next day I was sick. I am glad that I could have gone and wasn't sick that day.

One tender mercy is that our family is healthy no one has died of a sickness at a young age. No one has died in a car crash. Even are extended family. We are very very blessed. My parents always say when a am sad "count your blessings" but how in the world can I count ALL of my blessings because that would take my whole entire existence! Wow are we blessed!!!!

I am going to post more tender mercies each day.
