Dear Journal, Every Wednesday night, the youth group that my best friends are a part of their church holds a different event each Wednesday during the summer. Last week, it was an ice cream social. This week, it is an open mic night. Due to the fact that I love going to church and youth group, as well as the fact that I do that in Houston, I am really excited about tonight -Delta

For Delta's big birthday, the Diaz's had surprised her by treating her to a trip at Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure. Delta had not expected this, and was completely grateful and humbled by this gesture. After all, she had only been to Walt Disney World, and not the other two parks. With this said, Delta was excited and happy about getting to hang out at the two parks with her best friends, their parents, and her parents.

"Thank you so much for agreeing to do this." Kevin said, as he and Karis awaited their lunch orders. "It really means the world to me.""Thank YOU for asking me to do this." Karis smiled. "I don't remember the last time that we hung out, just the two of us." This was very true. Due to the fact that Karis was in Orlando for such a short time when she came to visit, she rarely got some alone time with Kevin. This time, however, was different. Today, they would be spending a good amount of time together today. This made both of them extremely happy

What does a popular, well liked, and successful band and their managers do on a free day in Dallas while on tour, you ask? Go to Six Flags Over Texas and to the Dallas Galleria. As the four best friends and bandmates made their way over to get in line for the fourth ride of the day, New Texas Giant, they could not help but feel excited Today was truly going to be a great day

"You sounded fantastic tonight, Violet " Via smiled. "Just like always, I am super proud of you ""I think having my beautiful and amazing twin sister there at the Good Friday service gave me confidence " My fraternal twin sister, Violet, smiled. "It is so great to have you home for Easter, Via ""It sure is " Dad piped. "We miss you so much when you are not here, sweetie.""That we do, honey." Mom added, gently. "It makes our hearts happy that your studio observes holidays.""Me too " I added. "I am so excited and happy to be here from today to Monday "Raising her glass of Coca-Cola, Violet raised her glass and said, "A toast to my wonderful and amazing sister on her Easter home-coming To Via "To Via " Mom and Dad cheered, as we clinked our glasses together.

Standing at my best friends' mansion's door, nerves fill my heart. It has been a month since I have talked to them. Even though they hurt me, Victoria and Vincent are not the only ones who messed up. I also said some things that I wish I could take back, However, that is not how life works. You can't take back what you've said and done in life. All you can do is learn from it and move forward. Taking a deep breath, I ring the doorbell.

"What did you guys think of Tower of Terror?" I asked as my best friends, parents, and I waited in line to board Rock N' Rollercoaster starring Aerosmith. "Did you like it?""Definitely " Tess chimed." Same " The guys piped." I liked it, too, but it made my stomach drop." I replied. "It is definitely one of those rides that I would ride only once in a day." Yesterday, my parents, best friends, and I arrived at our beach house in Henley Beach, Florida. While at dinner last night, Mom and Dad had surprised us by saying that we would be spending the first part of the fourth at Disney's Hollywood Studios. This had made all of us very excited As all of us boarded the ride, I could not help but smile. This Fourth was and was going to be the best one that I could ever ask for After all, I was spending it with my best friends and parents

"I am so happy and glad that Mom, Dad, and I were able to steal you away from L. A. from today until Sunday." Kara, my younger sister, smiled, as she continued to do my make up. "We've missed you tons ""I've missed you guys tons, too, and am so glad to be here " I replied. "Living with Aunt Kelly while filming the show is fun, but it is nothing compared to being home, and being with you guys. This was very true. I have lived with my favorite aunt in Los Angeles since I was twelve. This was due to the fact that is when filming my popular and top rated family show began. Even though I had a plethora of friends in L. A., and loved living with my aunt, it was nothing compared to being back in my hometown of Orlando with my family, best friend, and longtime good friends. With this said, I could not be happier to be home and celebrating my birthday with everyone here As my sister finished doing my makeup it was time to go downstairs and take pictures

"Ladies and Gentlemen, if you will please turn you attention to the ballroom doors." The DJ began. "Putting your hands together, please help me welcome in our special guests of the evening, Raquel Brees and Ricky Gavin " As the 100 guests (including Raquel and Ricky's parents) clapped and cheered, Raquel and Ricky smiled and made their way into the Hotel Icon ballroom. This made everyone cheer even more. After all, the birthday boy and girl had finally arrived
