I have always been fascinated by  the outdoors.  It feels so refreshing and energizing to be outside surrounded by an umbrella of stars with a crackling warm fire going.

When I was in 7th grade my brother brought me to the Boundary Waters for the first time and it changed my life forever.  I was so nervous, a good nervous, the night before that I couldn't sleep.  I was nervous on the five hour drive up.  I had no idea what to expect.

The painted forest surrounding me as the kiss of the sunlight hit the lake when I woke up the next morning gave me goosebumps and I wasn't nervous anymore!

The sunset sky sweeter then a s'more on the fire ended my first trip into the woods.  Giving me something to look forward to every year moving forward.  I was hooked like the walleyes on the end of my line throughout the trip!

Mexico has always been my happy place. There is always a pool over looking the ocean. It’s so  refreshing feeling the wind in your hair has you run to the ocean water. The ocean has always been my favorite feeling water rush though your hair feeling the soft sand at the bottom. But the first time I was there was the best.

I was three years old with my family on spring break and it was my first time in Mexico. I just remember the first time I stepped into that stand. Feeling the sand melt into my toes feeling the wind in my hair has a run to the ocean as the warm water rash to my feet. Sing ocean going forever with no end.

Mexico has always made me feel awe because of the warmth and the ocean and soft sand. Every time I get to go there it’s the same beautiful feeling.

Mid day today, I was watching Tiger King. I was lounging on my leather couch with a gray suede couch cover. Also I was eating cheesy ham and mash potatoes.

Suddenly, I got this wonderful idea to get a Danny Devito haircut because he is the best actor ever. Then I went to the bathroom and shaved my head with an electric hair clippers, just like Danny Devito's hair. It only took like 3 minutes with no mistakes. Now I look like a senior citizen. When i showed my lazy boxer lab mix, Halo, she threw up on my left arm. Bane was being lazy on the couch

It awed me because my older brother was disgusted and would not look at me. Then I called my friend. He said, "Why would you do that?" His dad said it was amazing!

It was April 13, 2019 Hopkins High School, my very first dance competition ever! My team was the Junior Dream Angels and we competed in tap, jazz, lyrical and production.
The competition lasted 3 days but I was only there for one. We always have to get there about an hour before our dance started so we could stretch and find our team and a spot for our costumes. I was nervous before we got on stage for our first dance, but once we started dancing I felt happy. I was excited at the end because we did so amazing in every one of our dances. We got first in production every time!
It sure was great journey to get to my first competition. We practiced for 8 months to get to this first event. It was awesome to see all the super amazing dancers that went through it toa.

one moment when I went awe is when the Minnesota Vikings walked off the new Orleans Saints in the divisional game in the playoffs.
My dad was jumping around and I jumped into the snow and my  dog kingsley was losing his mind . My mom and sister were shoveling snow outside . and my neighborhood shouted to my family VIKINGS WIN  with all there glory. the radio said the fans sounded like a jackhammer and a tiger .                     I had that play in my head for months . I was in my living room and it was still winter I was so shocked that we were about to lose . I was biting my shirt clenching my fists and waiting and it came to me a miracle. That's my awe story.

Over spring break last year at the end of March my family went to Steam boat Springs, Colorado. Me, My brother, my mom, and my dad were all there. My brother and I snowboard while my mom and dad ski.
My brother and I were snowboarding down these white snowy mountains, were about each path was at least a mile long. I had so much adrenaline from just snowboarding on these amazing paths that I wasn’t nervous at all. My brother and I looked at the top of Mountain Werner when we decided to go up a huge mountain on a chair lift. I was pretty nervous because the top of the mountain was super high. There was a big brown chalet on the top of the mountain with a huge deck connected to it. My brother and I got at the front of the line and my palms were sweating. We got on and off we went. We both were trying not to look back because we were so high at this point. Once my brother and I got to the top we put our snowboards down on the silver metal rack and went inside. Once we got inside we paid for chicken strips and French fries.
My brother and I went to go get a seat outside on the deck when we looked over the deck and you could see everything. My legs started shacking now knowing how high we actually were. Both my brother and I were in awe. We both forgot how high we were because of how beautiful it was. We saw more mountains, buildings, towns, and cities, shops, and so many people at the bottom of the mountain.

My whole Family was crammed in our living room, impenitently waiting for the biggest game of the year to start, the Packers Vs Steelers. When the game started know one moved until half time, when the fourth quarter came around it was a great game, when the clock hit zero you could see the disbelief on the Steelers bench and fans, The packers had won Super Bowl 45, the fans at Arlington Stadium went crazy. I remember my family was so happy, and my two grandmas left so early because they couldn't sit down anymore.

I went out with my friend today. We were in the backyard sitting on a blanket and we were drawing in our sketchbooks. Then we both got an idea to do a drawing challenge. We both drew and womens eye crying. So after we were done we went to her mom and asked who won and overall she said I won although I think it sucks. It took me an hour to draw it. After that we went on a walk. This is my drawing of the eye.

It was the the chilly month of November, 2010. I remember sitting on my brown smooth couch in the living room waiting for my parents to get home. I was finally becoming a big sister! My mom opened the front door by the kitchen and walked in with my little brother Joseph in the baby carrier. I was so excited, rating it would be 100000/10! Being only around 3 years old, I could be bouncing off walls with excitement. My mom then walked in with her Starbucks and my little brother. I was in awe, I was so happy to have a little brother!

Last summer me, my mom, and my brother went to my grandma's house in Minneapolis on the day of the Aquatennial fireworks. My stomach grumbled. When we got there she had food for us. I could smell grilled hamburgers in the air. Grandma served us watermelon, hamburgers, hot dogs, salad, potato chips.
My cousins were there to. We ran down the stairs to play baseball. It was so hot, I needed ice water.

It was fun to play but the time went so slowly. I kept asking, When are we going to go? Finally grandma told us it was time for the fireworks. I couldn't stop smiling.
We packed bags with snacks and got some blankets.  We walked down by the river.  When we walked over the bridge, the water looked like sparkles. We found a spot and now we could eat popcorn-woohoo! We could see the stars start to shine. Then we heard a boom. The start of the big firework show.The colors started to flash before my eyes . different colors like purple, yellow, blue, green and red. My mouth was wide open. I was speechless. I was so happy. My little cousin was smiling and laughing. He said wow a lot. But then it ended and it was so beautiful. We had to go home. It probably won't be happening this year, but I will hang on to this awesome memory for this summer.

My awe story was when I was at gymnastics practice last summer. The gym was packed with gymnasts and coaches. My team and I just finished floor.
As my team and I headed over to beam I started to get nervous. We did our warm up as usual then each started working on our routines. My coach came over to me and asked me if I wanted to work on my back tuck. Then I started to get really excited but nervous at the same time. And in a heartbeat I was on the high beam doing my back tuck without spot. Then I got a burst of excitement because I finally did it for the first time. I was so happy that I did it for the first time without spot from my coach.
This awed me because I have been working on my back tuck for a while and finally did it.

My awe story is when I went to Nickelodeon Universe in the Mall Of America with the neighbors and the younger one’s birthday was that day but he went with his mom and my sister so I was with the older one. When we came in I realized the rollercoasters were gigantic! They where all so big but one stood out the most. I saw one that was a sponge bob one and said to my self “Holly cow, that is high.” At first I was terrified to go on but decided to go on anyway thinking it would not be so bad after all but boi was I wrong. You see I have something called acrophobia, meaning I’m really scared of heights and that thing went up in a 90 degrees angle very very slow, I felt like I was going to fall out the back seat! It was really scary! Then it reached the top and I could see the whole building. Next thing I know it went in like a 180 angle down very very fast and went through so many loops but that was only the second most scary ride I have been on. If I would have been wearing my glasses I would have lost them, but thankfully they where in my coat pocket.

I took a summer job working at the airport and one weekend we decided to take a trip for fun.  We found an open flight and took our entire family to Paris.  The awe moment was seeing my children's eye light up and sparkle when the train took us past the Eiffel Tower for the first time that week.  Still to this day they talk about how neat it was to see something so amazing up close and personal.

My little sister has always been a fantastic singer. Her voice sounds like if a beautiful glass vase could sing jazz. It’s so refreshing to listen to. One time in particular though, she had a small solo at the end of a musical theater performance, and it made my heart swell and I got goosebumps all over.

Two years ago, my sister Olivia was in her last year of college. For the 4th year in a row, she was participating in Cabaret, a themed musical showcase with lots of singing and dancing to famous songs. Finally, the spotlights hit the back of the stage and Olivia came out from behind a curtain. She walked down the risers and out to the middle of the stage. Crisp and clear she sang out “Why fit in, when you were born to stand out.” The band wrapped up the song with a fanfare and everyone in the audience rose to their feet, whistling and applauding.

I did the same, I cheered her name and clapped my hands together so loud they stung. But in my mind all I could think was "Woah. My little sister just sang those words." It wasn’t about her singing, which I think is always beautiful, but it was about the lyrics to the song. "Why fit in when you were born to stand out?" Olivia has always been a little bit of a misfit. She hasn’t had a lot of friends and she just wants to be liked. But seeing her on stage, singing works about being unique while surrounded by kids who didn’t have a solo, it just gave my whole body the chills. She does stand out. She wasn’t made to fit in. It made me feel so proud of her.

My awe story is is when my parents let me get a dog. My parents would always say that dogs were too much work, and that we would never get one. But last Christmas, they told me I was getting one, and I was really excited.
