My Life
I’m your average 16 year old boy that likes cheeseburgers with bacon
  I am
      From a family of two sisters, one mom, one dad, and golden       retriever,
      to getting poison ivy three times last summer
  I am
      From skiing in knee deep powder in Colorado,
      to waterskiing until the sun goes down on Franklin Lake
  I am
      From riding my snowmobile until runs out of gas,
      to hiking to the top of the leaning tower of Pisa
  I am
      From a family that is quick to listen and slow to speak,
      to church on Sunday morning
  I am
      From running a cross country 5K through the woods where           you hear is your footsteps,
      to alpine ski racing around blue and red gates
  I am
      From riding horses in the dry, colorful rocky mountains,
      to surfing five-foot waves five-foot off the shores of Hawaii
  I am NOT
      From a family that believes money buys happiness,
      and you should steal something if you want it
  I am NOT
      From a family that likes to take the easy way out,
      and makes things harder than they have to be
  I am NOT
      From idolizing the Kardashians and drama,
      and fighting over who get the TV remote
  I am NOT
      From acting overconfident in that my family are not                     knowledgeable about
      and being cocky about that we are knowledgeable about
  I am NOT
      From giving up on tough challenges,
      and taking the easy way out
  I am NOT
      From Starbucks, the mall, and Bed Bath and Beyond,
      and taking selfies 
I’m just a 16 year old boy that like bacon on my cheeseburgers.
