School

I have to go get ready for school. It's 7:40-'ish' in Florida so I should be wide awake right now.

First Game

On Tuesday my basketball team had our very first game. I was in Florida so I missed it and I'm really sad about it. But I am really proud of them because they WON!! And it was against a team that they hadn't won to last year. Go Eagles!! This is an old picture from a tournament two years ago. :)

Magic Kingdom

After Universal for two days, we went to Disney. On Monday we visited the Magic Kingdom. There are seriously like NO scary rollercoasters at Disney, it stinks! Our favorite rides there were Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain. We went on them both 3/4 times each. I even video taped Big Thunder Mountain. :)

Good Morning

Good morning!! I'm so happy this morning and I don't know why! Enjoy your day, it's gonna be great!!

Countdown

Only 27 days until Christmas!!

Harry Potter

At Universal they had tons of stuff to do with Harry Potter which I am very into right now. I am only on book 4 but I have seen most of the movies, too. They had a Harry Potter world with tons of real shops that are actually in the books. They even had food and items from the book to buy! I bought a wand there. The rides were ok but not my favorites.

Universal

The first place we went after visiting my cousins' house was Universal Studios. They had lots of rollercoasters and worlds involving things like Dr. Seuss, Harry Potter, Shrek, The Avengers, cartoon characters, and more. My favorite coaster was Rock It and my second was Hulk. Fun!
BTW: pics 2 come soon...

Chores

Tomorrow after school we have to start doing chores again. My first one is going to be unpacking the many treasures from my suitcase.

Pets

My fish, George, was very lazy when we got home today. I gave him a travel food block thing for when we were away and I'm not sure if he ate it. It's supposed to last for about a week. It is mostly gone but I don't know. I tried feeding him his normal food but he didn't eat it...

Thank you Amy for watching the hermit crabs! We'll be over to pick them up soon. I'm sure you took great care of them and they probably had lots of fun in a different home for a change.

Skiing and Snow

I hope it snows soon so I can go skiing! I looove snow, skiing, and winter activities! I still have to buy boots, pants, and maybe gloves though so I'm not really prepared. I AM dreaming of a white Christmas!

Homework

My siblings and I all have lots of homework even though we only missed 3 days of school. We spent most of tonight working on it after dinner. I haven't even finished one day's work yet. :( I have 3 tests to do sometime also. It is horrible!!

Florida

Thanksgiving break just ended for me. We went to Florida last Wednesday and just got back today. I missed three days of school, which I am not happy about. We went to my cousins' house, Universal, and Disney over vacation. It was super fun and I didn't want to leave. I spent the rest of the night doing homework.

Lunchtime

It's almost lunchtime and I just ate breakfast! I hate lazy Saturday mornings sometimes. I wouldn't mind waiting till 3:00 to eat lunch, but I have basketball and I don't want to have another stomach ache. :(

Countdown

35 days till Christmas!!

Christmas Music

They're starting to play Christmas music on the radio! Yay! They have actually been playing it for weeks already. I've been listening to 93.9 Light FM. Or maybe light is spelled differently? Who knows! I think that's the right station... If anyone knows, please correct me!

Throat

I just realized that my throat hurts. :( Uh oh, not a good sign...

Basketball

I have basketball today and I really don't feel like going. Last time I had a really bad stomach ache and I felt horrible. I think it's because I ate a bad lunch or ate at the wrong time or something. :( I hope that doesn't happen again. BTW: When I went shopping I also got new socks for my basketball shoes.

Shopping

I went shopping yesterday with my mom and siblings. I got a skirt and shirt for Christmas and another shirt just bacause I wanted it. :) I also got a new winter coat.

Florida

Tomorrow we are leaving around lunchtime to go to the airport because we're going to Florida!! We are spending Thanksgiving at our cousins' house and then going to Disney. I'm so excited! Other than I have to finish packing today and I HATE packing!! ;(

Countdown

36 days till Christmas!!

Volleyball

Me and Micaela are playing volleyball sitting down using a soccer ball. :)

Bike

My brother got a new bike for his birthday yesterday! It was a surprise; for me too! It's a green and black mountain bike. Now everyone's bikes are bigger than mine. :(

Woke Up

Last night I woke up at 1:28 am and I was about to fall of my bed so I ended up sleeping on the floor. I woke up like 10 minutes ago and then went back to bed. I had had a dream about playing xbox (I may have been playing it too much). :)

Sleep

I better be going to bed now. I'm having I sleepover right now. :)

Shopping

Tomorrow we are going shopping for new snow clothes. I don't even have a winter coat! I also need boots, snow pants, and maybe gloves. I hope we get a chance to go to Kohl's to look at dresses for Christmas.

PJs

I just changed into my sock monkey pj pants. I'm so bored and not very sleepy. I cants wait till Xmas!

Laser Tag

For my brother's birthday party yesterday, we went laser tagging. It was super fun. My code name was Jellyfish. After that we had pizza and played in the arcade. With my tickets-291 to be exact- I bought 97 army men. The guy working there must have thought I was crazy! When I got home, my aunt, uncle, cousins, siblings, and parents helped me name each of them. And they all have a number on the bottom so I can keep them straight. :)

Countdown

Only 37 days till Christmas!!!

Hand Bells

At the school Christmas service this year, my class is playing hand bells. I got the two tiniest bells!! I'm so happy! Although my part is pretty repetitive.

Thanksgiving Feast

every year on the last day of school before Thanksgiving break, we have an early feast. The 7/8 graders have to help serve and set up. I set up chairs and placemats. After that we had a chapel service. When the feast started, I had the job of dishing out food to the younger kids. After that I helped serve at other tables and ate turkey and pie. :)

Goodbye, Elisabeth!

My friend Elisabeth just had her last day of school on Friday because she is moving to Georiga. :( We will all miss her a lot. And if you're reading this Elisabeth, I hope you're adjusting to your new home and school and that you make lots of friends. Don't forget to email!

Harry Potter

I'm almost finished with the third Harry Potter book. I am determined to finish it tonight! I also plan to read a lot of other books of Thanksgiving break when I have time.

Let It Snow

Yipee! There's frost on the rooftops!! In many small sections there's even some frosty snow! I'm so excited!!!!!!!

Good Morning

Good morning! My alarm went off three times before I got up. :) woah, why did my sound just randomly go off?? Well, it's back on now but that was creepy... Argh, what to wear...? Addidas sweat pants, or black stretchy yoga pants? Ahhhh!!! My sound is off again! It's freaking me out! :(

Shower

I have to shower now. :( I hate showers. I also have to pick up my room sometime tomorrow which I hate doing but it is pretty messy and I like it organized. We had no homework today! I was so happy. :)

Done with Dinner

I finished my dinner of macaroni and cheese and an apple! Yum. :) I also had some of my Halloween candy for dessert.

Home Again

I just arrived home from basketball practice. My brother just said my basketball shoes are weird! :( They are not!! Anyways, I'm watching tv right now and I have to go make myself some dinner. :( gtg

Basketball

I'm off to bball! Hooray!

Good Morning

Today we're leaving at 7:20 to go out to eat for breakfast because it's my mom's birthday. She's going to open the rest of her presents there. Can't wait!

Not New

Turns out the Finding Bigfoot we're watching isn't part of a new season, it's just a rerun. :( Whoops

Finding Bigfoot

I'm watching the newest season of Finding Bigfoot! They just found broken sticks, oh my! A Sasquatch must have done it!! I like how they have quotes at the bottom of the screen from the main people now.

Today was not Today

The post titled 'Today' was actually supposed to be posted yesterday. :( Sorry for the confusion.

Waiting...

I can't wait until Christmas! Most stores have been ready since before Halloween. I hope there's lots of snow and many opportunities for ice skating this year.

Happy early Birthday

Happy early birthday, Mommy! My mom's birthday is tomorrow but I wanted to celebrate a day before in case I forget or don't have time to later. :) It is also my uncle's birthday on the same day. Hope you guys have a good time!!

Today

Right now I am playing on Webkinz. My sister got a new pet from a birthday party she went to. We are both on now. In a little bit, we are leaving for my cousins' house to celebrate my mom and uncle's birthdays. (Both on the 5th)
