January went very fast with the beautiful weather we were having and play practices to keep us busy. All the play practices went well. My costume weighed 30lbs and was very hot and I had a 20 inch tall wig. On the day of the performance  five plays were performed. Our play won first place. Landon got an actors award along with a few others. Our cast did so well at working together the judges made up there own award  to give the entire cast on the spot. The ensemble award.

Driving permit

Yay, I got my drivers permit. I am so exited to get started driving.  I did not think I would pass this test, you are only allowed to get four out of twenty-five answers wrong, and I was at three and I had ten questions left, but thankfully everything went well and I passed the test. And then I walked up to the window and the man told me to sign my name on the thingy with a pen, and that was the first time I had ever used this type of thing and my hand writing was bad. Then he went and put that signature on my permit, dang, I wish he would have told me what he was going to do with it.

For Alex’s birthday I attempted an ice cream cake.  I thought it turned out well.  Tt was a strawberry cake with rocky road ice cream(chocolate with marshmallows and nuts, Alex picked it out.) After the cake was done, Landon helped me create two lightsabers across the top.  The ice cream was not home made, but the cake was.  I got the ice cream cake recipe from a cook book I got for my birthday. The cake i made was a little too sweet so next time I will cut down on the sugar.

I was the first to attempt an ice cream cake in this house.

It is going to be a fabulous show.

Thanksgiving Dinner

This year for Thanksgiving we went to my grandparents farm on my dads side. We had a wonderful time, my grandma made her delectable deviled eggs,  brownies, stuffing, and more.  My granddad made the best turkey I have ever had, Sarah made yummy pumpkin pie, mom apple crisp, I made some kind of drink with ginger ale, fruit punch, and raspberry sherbet.  Some time after lunch my granddad took two children at a time out to his field to drive the tractor.   First he brought Daniel and Joseph, then Alex and John, and last but not least he brought me.  Driving the tractor was very fun.  It took me a while to get used to driving such a big peace of machinery.  After that my granddad went outside with Landon and dad to shoot a big gun (we are way out of town)  at an old can, the gun was very loud, and they did have ear protection.  I stayed inside.   I do not like to shoot  guns it hurts my shoulder.   After that we all stayed inside.  It was very cold and windy so I did not get    any pictures.  But my granddad just sent me a picture of the tractor and deep till I drove.

 

 

 

 

 On Tuesdays I take a class for strengthening and conditioning  for pointe.  On the Tuesday before Thanksgiving my teacher said ( we must be thankful for our food and I will make you be thankful, and make you remember me over thanksgiving.)  Everybody remembered her, including me. I was so sore, and even to this day my abs and shoulders are sore.      

 

 

Happy Thanksgiving to everybody.  I hope you were thankful because some people have only a piece of bread to be thankful for, NOT  turkey, pumpkin pie  some kind of drink with ginger ale, fruit punch, and raspberry sherbet, apple crisp, deviled eggs,  brownies, stuffing, and more.

 

 

 

 

  

Joseph’s Pop Vocabulary

We have a co 2 machine that we hook up to a bottle filled with COLD water and shake until it’s as fizzy as you want it then you’r done “fizzing” as all the boys call it.  Next we put soda stream flavoring in it and there you go. There is about 8g of sugar in it and about 35 calories.  Now Joseph loves this stuff and he has it about three or four times a week and one day he walks up to me and says “Maria will you fizz?” and looking at his adorable face with his pretty please face on and can’t say no, so I start to fizz and I notice a ssssssssssss sound coming out of the machine and I think it must be leaking to I take the bottle off and taste it and it is not very fizzy.  So I tell Joseph the machine is leaking and his water isn’t very fizzy but he tastes it and says “Oooooooooh Maria it tastes very romantic.”
