On a dark Halloween night nearly eighteen years ago, Kate Anne Bagley was born. Almost named Broom Hilda, Kate came into this world with a bang, shocking tabloids and gynecologists everywhere. Preceding Kate in her family were Whitney, Claire, Bonnie and Fred. Her parents, Jim and Lori, decided that five children weren’t enough and went on to have Samuel, Joseph, Grace, Daniel and Jocelyn. For most of Kate’s childhood, The Bagley’s lived in South Jordan. The Bagley Clan moved to Bluffdale when Kate was in eighth grade where she met her future best friend. Kate has one dog; a poodle named Cooper. Kate’s sister Whitney got married and gave Kate two beautiful nieces, Madison Kate and Lily Grace, to play with. Bonnie also got married, but nor nieces or nephews have resulted from that union yet.
Kate loves hanging out with her family especially her older brother, Fred. Kate and Fred have been the best of friends since she was born. They watched Power Rangers and played Pokémon together. As they got older and Kate started dating, Fred turned into the typical protective older brother threatening to break boys’ kneecaps if they broke her heart. Fred and Kate have an interesting bond. They love each other and they show it in their own ways. When Kate broke her foot, Fred was the one who carried her to the car. He also carried her to the car when she dislocated her knee as well. Kate looks up to Fred in all that she does. A lot of who Kate is is influenced by Fred, including her music choices.
Kate loves a lot of different genres of music, but her favorite is Ska. Some of her favorite music groups include but are not limited to: The Flatliners, Streetlight Manifesto, Ted Leo & The Pharmacists, Vampire Weekend and Regina Spektor. Kate is also and active Thespian and loves musical soundtracks. Her Top Five Favorites are Aida, Sweeney Todd, Miss Saigon, Les Miserablés and Pirates of Penzance.
When Kate was younger, she did some modeling for a small internet based company. She still could do modeling if she wanted because she is so tall but she is more active in Musical Dance Theatre now. Kate’s favorite foods are chocolate and cupcakes, or better yet, chocolate cupcakes. She spends her spare time training her Pokémon. She is a Pokémon Master and has a Level eighty-seven Charizard. Kate’s favorite sports to watch are ones with attractive men on their teams. She is a Sudoku prodigy. She definitely has a resemblance to the anime cartoon character Sailor Moon. You can always find Kate getting her picture taken doing something zany such as jumping off a deck or looking for her prince charming whilst trapped in a tower. Kate’s favorite tv show is Psych because she has a major school girl crush on James Roday and his large nose. Kate loves the name Remington and hopes to marry someone with that name, but in the meantime has named her Velociraptor she bought at Disneyland, Remington. She also has a stuffed animal Zebra Stripe Gum Zebra and his name is Benjamin.
Kate got the most amazing opportunity to visit China. Her dad does a lot of business in China so once when he was over there, he brought his family with him. Kate loves China and if she could live anywhere for a year, China is where she would live. Kate is a strong person and an amazing best friend. She has a great sense of humor and adventure. She deserves everything she hopes for.
Carly Nicole Sisson
By:Kate Anne Bagley
Once upon a time, Carly Nicole Sisson was born. What started out as the perfectly normal, humdrum day of March 19, 1992, was quickly transformed into what might have been the most important day in American history when the small and slimy baby Carly burst from the womb. The child grew and thrived in a home with her loving parents and five siblings and a variety of miscellaneous pets, such as goldfish, none of which seemed to survive for too long. The Sisson household in Bluffdale, Utah was hectic and crazy at times, but all-in-all a good atmosphere for growing up in. At least, Carly seems to have turned out O.K.
Carly sprouted like a bean early in life, quickly becoming taller than most, if not all, the boys in her elementary school classes. The boys teased her and pulled her pigtails. They only saw her as the gangly and slightly clumsy girl. But Carly was much more than that. She was energetic, out going, and just full of life. The stupid little boys had no idea that she would come into her own in high school and be quite the hot commodity. Not even Carly herself could know nor could she prepare for the drastic changes it would cause in her life.
Not that the changes were unwelcome. A little known fact is that Carly has a crush on every boy, except for maybe that one. She is fond of a man with a nice mustache and an even nicer sense of humor. Hint, hint, boys. A man with a scarf is also much appreciated. However, her one true love is, and always will be, the actor Edward Norton, despite his being 23 years older than she is.
Still young, with her entire life ahead of her, Carly is still discovering who she really is. She is still as full of life and excitement as she has ever been. She is a Riverton Silver-wolf to the heart, always willing to participate in school activities, clubs, and committees. Carly enjoys running and jumping off of things, being silly, taking pictures of her silliness, and mimicking people (which she does quite well).
Carly has a strange obsession with socks, owning over fifty pairs at last count. Always the fashionista, she also greatly enjoys dressing up in both costumes and more "normal" clothes. She spends her days creating outfits from the clothes in her closet and the closet of her best friend and siamese twin, Kate. Raiding Kate's closet is a favorite past time of Carly's. Kate doesn't mind because, in return, Carly is more or less Kate's personal hair, make up, and wardrobe stylist.
Always the humanitarian, her life long dream is to build a center for children who can't read good and want to learn to do other stuff good too. Some other of her life goals are to to design her very own clothing line, become a pokemon master and "catch them all", and to go to Disneyland at least once before she dies. She also aspires to be a make up and costume artist/ designer for big budget movies or Broadway theatre. She is currently working towards this dream by being in charge of make up and costumes for Riverton High School's production of Les Miserables, as well as the Shakespeare Competition piece that the drama department is taking to Cedar City in October.
Though Carly will claim otherwise, she is most likely going to be married within a year of graduating from high school. And then will have at least four kids when the ten year reunion rolls around. They will all be adorable children, of course.
You may not know this, but Carly is kind of a big deal. She is a great friend and will never let you down when you need her and will always be there when you need someone to talk to. She is unique and genuine. Anyone should consider themselves lucky enough to know her.
