Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving all my blog readers. How long did you guys spend in the kitchen cooking,cleaning, and having panic attacks about what ingredients you forgot at the grocery story? I spent about nine hours total the day before Thanksgiving in the kitchen, and there was mom, me, Sarah, and Landon in the kitchen at the same time. Now can you imagine families leaving ALL the cooking and cleaning to mom? Thats not fair.

What did you have at Thanksgiving dinner? I had turkey, mashed potatoes with gravy, some sort of corn dish, stuffing, green bean casserole, pumpkin pie, pecan pic, apple pie, banana pudding dessert, and punch.

 

Be thankful for what you have, count you blessings and write them down on a piece of paper and put the list next to your bed.

Hi guys so sorry I have not been blogging, I have been very busy and I kind of forgot about it.  But, to start up blogging again I will give you some suspense, tomorrow I will put up a post of something nobody will suspect and will probably astound most of you. And I won’t put it up until I have some guesses in the comment box. 

 

 

 

VERY SORRY BUT DUE TO AN UNFORTUNATE MISHAP THE UNLEASHING WILL BE CANCELED UNTILL FURTHER NOTECE.  

 

The Bead Battle

Sarah and I where given a jewelry beading kit for Christmas.  We made most of the designs in our kit so we went out to hobby lobby and spent $20 on more beads and supplies.  A  few days later we decided to sort all the different colors of beads into their own little bag, which was a hectic “Bead Battle.” So many beads, millions of beads.  Then Dominic came over to see me, and of corse he wanted in on the acton.  Him being there went better than I expected,  I  thought he was going to throw my beads on the floor and eat them, but he just sat there on my lap while I sorted the beads in to their color piles.  He put them into the bag one bead and a time and it actually went faster than before. 

More “Bead Battle” 

When I was making one of the bracelets in my kit the beads kept  falling off.  When I had finally finished putting on all the beads I tied the ends together and pulled them very tight.  With a sigh of relief I put the bracelet on my wrist and then bracelet shattered!  The beads went flying and some beads even broke.  I fell to the floor with my hands in the air.

 

 

P.S. I did eventual finish the bracelet after a hectic”Bead Battle”

God Supplied Me With All My Needs And Wants

This last Saturday Sarah and I went shopping for jewelry at the mall.  We left around 4:00.p.m.  First we went to Yonkers because I had a gift card and I picked out a ring and a pair of earrings.  It is kind of hard to find  stuff in yonkers for earrings.  Most of the earrings they  have are for ages 18 and up. Then we went to the Icing store (another jewelry shop) and I did not find anything there.  Then we went to Maurices and I found two pairs of earrings there. Last, we went to Clair’s and macys, I found nothing there.  We left around 5:30 and started home.   I thought “I’m very thirsty” from shopping and I looked down and there was a water bottle with cold ice water in it.  Then I was hungry and I opened the cubby, there was a mostly eaten chocolate bar.  God surely supplied me with all my needs and wants.

       

 

 

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.

 

 

 

 

  

My Impersonation Of An Orc

I stretched one of those things you put on your feet at the shoe store over my head and every body who saw me said I looked like an “Orc from lord of the rings”  Even thou I did’t think so.

What do you think?

I don’t even see where they got orc from, I just can’t see it in me.

 Sarah said ” you shouldn’t leave that on to long or your nose might stay like that”  

 Dominic was kind of disturbed but Daniel just laughed.  

This was my bast smile.

   My nose looks so funny in this one.

 Landon said I look like a wicked witch only I just needed a few big warts. 

Now that one might look kind of scary.

Trip To Chicago

We went to Chicago last weekend.  First we went to the Aquarium then to the Field Museum which I carelessly left my camera in the car for the museum so NO pictures.  It took us ten hrs to get there.  

  This was on the way there the mountains were beautiful.

   

The next day after the aquarium we walked to the sears tower from the aquarium which is like 3hrs of walking.

 This is the aquarium selling.    

 Fish in the aquarium eating another fish.

 Thats what I call a smart fish.

 This is the best picture of a beluga whale I could get, you are not aloud to use flash in the aquarium so excuse the bad pictures.

 

 A giant jelly fish can you see the tentacles go so far back.

 Look at all the little fish.

Sarah Landon John and I got a separate room from the a joining room.  

On the way home we stopped at the science and industries museum.  This is Landon’s hand and you can see his veins.

Then we went home, and are living happily ever after.
