My Childhood

This is a image of me and my little cousin

Kelly. He’s 3 years younger than I am and I look at him like my brother.

Me and My Cousin

When I was younger, I always thought I

wanted to be a veterinarian. All my childhood, I’ve been taking care of animals and reading veterinary books.

My Pets

This is my Chihuahua named Tinker Bell. She

is 12 years old and I got her when I was in the first grade!

Since I was a couple years old, I have been

culturally involved and participated in a lot of events. One of them being Makah Days. This picture is of me and Kelly at Makah Days.

Makah Days Dancing

I played basketball since I was in elementary.

My uncle was my coach and I learned to love it! Later on in middle school, the same uncle coached me and high school another uncle coached me. Basketball is well known in my family.

My Favorite Sport

Back in high school, I had a huge group of

friends and we’ve known each other most of our lives. Since then we’ve all been growing up and living our separate lives but still have a way of keeping in touch.

Friendship

Beading has been a hobby since I can

remember. I want to open up my own bead shop one day.

During my senior year of high school, I took a

trip to Hawaii with my mom, uncle, and little cousin. This is a picture of my cousin Nora and I.

My Sophomore year, I went to Wenatchee and

met some of my dad’s side of the family. Ever since we’ve been keeping in touch almost everyday!

Meeting Grandma and Auntie

For my boyfriends’ auntie’s birthday, we went

to Las Vegas and stayed their for a week. Here I took a picture with Horny Mike and Cowboy from the show Count’s Customs.

Another place we went to while we were in Las

Vegas was the Pawn Stars pawn shop. We didn’t meet anybody but we did see the owner, Rick, come out of his office!

Another Journey in Las Vegas

Most of my family members and I went on a

family vacation to Orlando, FL. There, we swam with the manatees, went to swim in the Gulf of Mexico, and spent a few days at Disney World.
