My family

Tonight my little sister Shayla (she is 18) got in a car wreck which was really upsetting to us all because she is at college all by her self. She is going to school at Adams State College in Alamosa Colorado, which is 14 hours from me. You just feel so helpless in a situation like that. She texted me a picture of her car which was totalled, and that just made it worse because honestly she is so lucky to be alive. It just really hit me hard that she could have been taken from us just like that. I'm really glad that she is ok. I love Shayla so much and I'm so proud of all that she has accomplished already in her life. She is so fun and full of life! I just want to post a ilttle about each one of my siblings.

Here is a picture of the car



Amanda (the oldest)
She is so sweet and sensitive, she makes sure that everyone is taken care of. She has always been a great example to me and I've always looked up to her! I consider her my very best friend, because she knows all the bad about me but still loves me! If you ever need a pick up Amanda would be the one to call.

Jeremiah
He is very loving guy. Behind his muscular tough guy build there is one sweet brother, husband and dad in there! Jeremiah brings the life to the party, you might want to make sure you have ear plugs and nose plugs if you are in tight quarters with him! Jeremiah is very loving and fun!!

Courtney
She is very quite and private but she has a lot of love to share. Courtney is very forgiving and kind. Courtney loves all of her nieces and nephews very much. She'd do anything for her family. She is very ambitous and she'll go far in this life. Courtney has such a cute personality. I don't know where she comes up with some of her jokes but they are pretty funny!

Shayla
Like I said before she is full of life and spunk. She will always be my little taters. Shayla loves everyone and always has something positive to say.

I love my family so much and I'm so grateful that Heavenly Father has put me here on this earth with them. I wouldn't change any of them for the world. They have helped shape me be the person that I am.

Aww jill you made me cry. I can't tell you how proud I am to be part of the smith family. You all have taken me in and loved me like a sister and I've never had that before. I can't tell you how much I love you all. Thank you Jill for being my friend and next door neighbor 6 years ago! I love you.
