Hey!

so today was Trey Footes Memorial, (Emily came with me, i also saw mrs.Shilling there.)

It was sad and yet they who cried were crying tears of joy! Trey is no longer in pain. I even cried just watching the slide-show. it was very sweet.

85!Trey Foote is SKyviews Angel!85

I babysatt Joe & Riley tonight.

so i wanted sometheing choclate and i was like o00o0o i want brownies! but we did not have any, so i made choclate cup cakes. and i don't mean to brag but they were goooooooooooood! and so i took the cupcakes out of the oven and burned my fingers, lol. they hurt! o well! nvm me,what up? lol, its late. its 12:09

I got to help @ a Haunted House at the WSD (washington School for the deaf) it was cool, i was in the kitchen. i will tell more 2 marrow my fingers hurt really really BAD!!!!!

Last night:Trey Foote

Last NIGHT:
It was tori's Birthday party.
Before that: I had a chior concert to go to. It was fun! and after that i left early to go to toris house so we could go to the skyview V.S. Battle Ground game.!!!!!!!!!!!! it was so sweet, it we came at like the middle of 3rd quarter only because my chior concert was late. and i think they should have canceled it because of whats going on this week and the football game is important!
At the end of the game everyone ran out on the field! and we got in this BIG CIRCLE (more like a huddle with 100's of people!) and we nealed down so Mr.Little could say a few words. It was sad. We took a moment of silence for Trey. after that treys dad Jim Foote said " Keep him in your hearts forever." so their idea was that we(everyone 100's of people) got flashlights and shined them up to trey and as we were doing that we were singing
na-na-na-na na-na-na-na hey-hey-hey goodbye! and then we got quieter and softer and then we all just started to hum it. and i am pretty sure i was the only one who saw it but i saw a shooting star in the sky. I wanted to cry more but for some reason i couldn't, i don't like that feeling.
Once we got home we watched the news and they all had brief news stories.
Honestly i did not know him but form this week i fell like i have known him for most of my life. The Foote family is so brave. Their family is really nice.

Friday at School:
At 1:00 (almost end of 5th per) we had a circle assembly.
circle assembly-where the whole school gathers around the balcony and downstairs floor. we all listen to Mr. Little, normally its before a game.
That day we took a moment of silence. you could just tell that everyone was sad. then at the end everyone got in a big circle in the middle of the cafiteria around the football players and at first i thought they were saying.....
"We will pray, we will prey, we will prey, for God."
and then they started to get louder and louder and i thought they were saying
"we will prey, we will prey,we will prey for trey!" (i started crying)
but what they were really saying is............
"WE'RE READY, WE'RE READY, WE'RE READY FOR YA'LL" After we were done chanting that Mr.Little said "okay lets give a Skyview shout-out to Trey one last time! GIVE ME AN "S" (S) GIVE ME AN "H" (H) GIVE ME AN "S" (S) WHATS THAT SPELL? SHS,SHS,SHS,SHS. GO STORM!"
I was so sad i could not even chant. this week has just been really rough alone. not very fun.
so yeah, aparently i have bad hearing. and it was sad. i cried going to 6th period.
It was all over the news. its pretty cool in a sad way. and then also in the huddle we started saying
"WE LOVE TREY! WE LOVE TREY WE LOVE TREY"
Last night was a very special night.
We love you and miss you trey. :)
-The skyview family.

Thats all for now.

Love,
Amanda

R.I.P <3Trey Foote<3 WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!

Today was a sad day at school.

Trey Foote passed away, : ( But we know he is in a better place now where he is free of pain, and happier where he is now. He will be watching down as we look up.

It was hard to get through the school day today. He will be a LEGEND in SKyview History Forever!!!!

thats really all i have to say today.

I have such a busy schedule today well to start off,

-Amanda

It makes me feel sad that i never told Trey or Amanda what that guy said, if you look at my blog the previous page, or under this one... i don't know.

Coach Kiezer(Head football coach) and Mr.Little (principal) were very sad. I wonder how Mr.Grey is doing- he also coached football.

I send my BEST OF WISHED to their family. Were all here for you! :)
*Hugs*

I went over to my aunties house last night and i had a lot of fun. brings back good memories! hmmm, we
Watched T.V, Colored, Ate pizza for dinner, did homework (*sigh*)and played sorry(Board game)
See for me the whole story behind sorry is that #1- i am really bad at that game, #2- always lose, #3- takes me forever to get pawns out.... well this time #3 was true but i ended up WINNING! how sweet is that? i have never won sorry before, i swear its a game of sweet revenge and Karma. What goes around come around!

^_^ Meow^_^ (awww, cute kitty,) its a random picture that i found on google i think.

weekend update!

*sigh*(of relief! Finally its the weekend!)
Friday-
I went to the last home game for SHS, it was sweet. i have 2 stories to tell you.
#1- it seems like every time i go to Kiggins(home to SHS), i have tripped on the stairs, last time i fell on my butt and then tripped going up the stairs and THIS time i tripped down, like i went down slowly. it is hard to explain becasuse i did not really fall i just stepped wrong.
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
#2- There is this Varsity Football player named Trey Foote, he has cancer and about a week ago the doctors said he was fine until this week and said he was not doing well and would not have long to live, he goes around in a wheelchair most of the time. Because of his cancer he can't play football so about 3 games ago they retired his jersey and he was done for the season. But he comes to everygame and sits in his car watching. Its really sweet. Everyone bought these t-shirts at school (including me) that says TREY(in white and navy-dark blueish color background, of the other way around, blue words and white shirt) and it was $12.00, the money went to MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION!!!! so i bought one. :) honestly i have never met trey in person i have only met his sister, Amanda Foote(tee-hee, she has the same name...) she is so nice. She is Proud of her brother and thinks he is a wonderful inspration.
I went to the game with Kendall, KImberly, and Ashley, then met up with Savannah and Sarah, after the game is over everyone runs across the feild to the players who are VARSITY IS UNDEFEATED!!!! GO SHS!!!! N-B-L-C (nothin but lead champions!) after that all players run over to treys car and one by one they shake his hand and people form a line that can go across the whole field to say hi, its sweet. and people were chanting "WE LOVE TREY, WE LOVE TREY!" and it was cool. he will be a legend in SHS for a long long long time!
When KImerly, Kendall and I were walking back to the car this random guy asked
"Hey!, ya'll know Trey?"
"Um no, but we know his sister." said K,K,A(Kimberly,Kendall, Amanda=me lol)
"Well, can you give him this message and say it was from Miko?"
"Yeah sure!" K,K,A
"Please let trey know that i'm praying for him and i hope when he dies he goes to heaven and god will take care of him. I am thinking about him, GOOD Luck. !"
"Aww that is so sweet, we'll tell him that."
That made us all want to cry. There was even a news special about him, it was touching.
Oh yeah, Kendall slept over...we had fun!
````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
Today-(Saturday)
Kendall and I slept in till about 10 surprisingly, it felt gooood! then we went to stevens soccer game, then to costco,then home, then to the schools so my dad could run and kendall and i could walk the dogs and play on the playground, came home, were bored for a while, and ate a yummy dinner!
Because it was my grandmas( we call her nonnie) birthday October 10th, but we celebrated it tonight, and a bunch of our family came over,
Nonnie,Annie Granny & Papa, Uncle Tim and Susie, stevens friend Kyle and my friend Kendall and mom, dad and steven and me! My mom made her yummy yummy yummy lasagna. and then we had a really yummy choclate cake, OMG its the best, normally i don't like rich choclate but that just hit the spot.
***OMG when we were @ costco they had free samples everywhere, and one of them was Fried Potstickers, those are da'bomb! OMG i have never had a fried on before. i love chicken potstickers. a great place to get them is Henrys Tavern(restruant downtown).*YAWN* i am starting to get tired. its 11:55 PM lol, i still have math homework to do..... sigh, i will do it tomarrow. Here are some pictures of Promotion for 8th grade last year, sorta... its not new years yet. :p lol!

You know what i could never figure out what this ( <3 ) meant, but i get it now, its a heart....can u see it?
Or next time you see a FEDEX truck see if you can fins the arrow inbetween the words. it took me forever, but i see it every time now. okay officially i am going to bed at.............. 12:14

tired and felt like sayin hi *(Again)*

I am tired........... and i really don't know why i am on the computer.

I watched Mattea for a bit tonight. I watched "Curious George The Movie" with her. I LOVE THAT MOVIE. its so adorable! and after that we went upstairs and started to watch "Dinosaurs" but she was getting scared so then we decided to put in "Blues Clues Sing Along" so i was on the couch and she crawled up on my lap, and started to fall asleep. Chris said i could leave any time just let him know, so i was like "Ok" and then Mattea started to drift to sleep and i was like i will just wait until she falls asleep to leave because i was tired, so i kinda went to sleep. but then i woke up and they walked me home. I did not turn off my Alarm Clock so i woke up at 5:50!!!!!!!!!!! OMG- that is so not cool when its a weekend... then i got up and turned it off and woke up again at 10:40ish.
(I am kinda going Backwards in the day)
Mattea and I did a lot of Chalk and it was soo cool. We filled up the whole driveway pretty much. it was fun. and we played Hide-n-Seek and yeah just had a lot of fun!

I called Morgan and Maddy today,They all seem to be doing good. It was nice to talk to them. I honestly wonder if they think about me as much as i think about them. i think about them everday and miss them, when i went to texas i did not want to leave because i already felt like i was living at home. its nice to know i have support everywhere from family-to-friends and i met another family that was their neighbors and they are so nice.... almost like a family to me too. okay i am like seriously tired so GOODNIGHT!
Love,
Amanda

SKYVIEW!!!!

Yeah!!!!!!!!! so i went to the SKYVIEW game tonight agaist EVERGREEN(booo, evergreen=our Rival, River is our other rival) the sad thing is that this was the 1st game i have been too this year. sad huh?? (Varsity Game, skyview 36 evergreen 14 HAH!!!! we UNDEFEATED! GO SHS)

** one of the varsity football players is sick, his name is Trey Foote, I am not quite sure about how long he has had cancer but yeah. its like in his leg and he can't play...but he goes to every game only he sits in his car and watches it. I have been hearing people say he has not been doing well. :( so they (people @ school) are selling Trey shirts that have his Jersey # on the back. so it was like $12.00 and i said the only several reasons i will get it is because Trey, SUpport Make a wish foundation( i believe thats what its called) and to just have School spirit! honestly i don't even know him, but just from the stories i have heard he seems like a nice guy. :)

***Skyview chant thing: oh yeah its called a FIGHT SONG!( i forgot for a moment!)
Hail! To the Victors Valiant,
Hail! To the conquering Heros,
Hail! Hail! To Skyview High,
The Leaders and the Best!
Hail! Brave defenders,
Hail! To the storm so mighty
Hail! Hail! to skyview high,
The CHAMPIONS of the west!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
S-H-S, S-H-S, Go-FIGHT-WIN*repeats all over and over again till we wanna stop.!*
Its stuck in my head.
Tah dah-pretty sweet huh? yay i am so happy its the weekend. i am like mega tired, school is too early and it should have never been made this way to be so early!!!!

Oh and i think tonight SHS is going to be on FOX News or umm what channel, o darn i forgot. for our spirit assembly today they were filming us and they said we were going to be brodcasted on T.V cool huh? this is awesome!!!!! maybe i should turn it on and go see. i dunno.

Later i went and sat with my neighbors, Marty,Karla,Carly,Joe,Riley,Jody,Brenda and Gairn, and yeah thats it, and every time the fight song would come on riley would get up and dance shes so adorable and cute! she knew the cheers too. it was funny.
I am thinking about doing cheer next year at SHS, like all the varsity are seniors and they are all leaving so they will need more poeple, and this year there is one sophmore on there and i think i can make it on the VARSITY TEAM, and hopefully by next year i will have a round-off Back-Handspring- Back Tuck!!!

Well yeah thats my story for tonight. BYE!!!!!!
-Night night,
Amanda
time: 10:29

Just my life and I

Camping was pretty fun with the Girl Scout Troop. We got to see a 600 year old tree. it was HUGE!!!!!!!!! um, we did this awesome hike, i think it was called mire Lake(Pronounced- Meer)and apparently it should be a mild flat hike, psh, what ever. i found it kinda hard. even mom and the other girls hotught so too.
Its our Tradition on the way to Girl Scout Camp to stop at The Toilgate Inn, for dinner, they have the best burgers. Mmmm, i love them. and on the way home we stop at A&W's. i love that place. its so awesome.
School was fun this week,(1 day left, lol) its SPIRIT WEEK!
monday-Layers Day
Tuesday-Personal Flotation device day
Wednesday- Wacky Day
Thursday-COLOR WAR (Freshman=Orange)
Friday-Power day(wear school colors)
hmmm, its kinda late so i am losing my train of thought. :( its 9:22( i know, i know... your all thinking its not that late but when you wake up at 5:50 AM it sure is)
Tomarrow is a BIG game for Skyview Football we going againist EVergreen, Its played somewhere called the Kiggings Bowl.... i have no been to a game at all this year. i know sad huh? well i have either been babysitting, Cheerleading, or who knows what. and my brother got to go to the 1st big game of the year. (CR VS SHS) i was so mad about that. but o well....
I want to write more, but i have nothing really to say.... well i do but i can't think at the moment. i will put some more pictures up soon!!! so yeah. um, i think i am going to go to bed. o yeah Homecomming is this weekend. i did not get asked, but thats no surprise right now, but i did not really feel like going.*sigh* i'm getting sleepy, but i don't wanna go to bed but i should, ugh....so many decisions! well really this time i promise i am for sure going to bed.

Hey, guess what? i wrote a song yesterday. I am so proud of it. i wrote it in 1 day! i think i called it "Watching You Sleep" its always hard to get the right pitch when you can't write music.(well i can, i can also read it but i don't know exactly what keys are what...) i will try to post it later.
see i forgot again.................... *sigh* i swear i am like dory, i want to be dory for halloween! cool huh?
um yesterday i got locked out of my house, someone left the key pad open to the gorage(can't spell) and all the doors were locked so i went over to my neighbors and chilled for a bit and played with Mattea. i had fun. :)
Its so hard to picture little girls i know grown up, i wish they would stay that way. like morgan and maddy and mattea just everyone. i'm sure thats how parents feel. and like its sad because i don't get to see morgan and maddy on a daily or every other day basis and watch them grow, i will only see them about once or twice a year. possibly 3, you never know.....Yup, this is when i know i am really tired, i can't think and my hands hurt!
