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.
For Easter I got a bag of truffles and I brought three truffles upstairs one for me, mom, and dad.
I gave one to dad them I put the other two on the counter and felt to go find mom, and when I came back there was only one there. So I looked around to se if anybody was there and Daniel stood next to me so I said
“Daniel did you eat one of these truffles?” and he said “It was really very very good.”
Daniel has been getting into a very bad habit of licking his lips, so Landon told him that his lips would fall off if he did’t stop licking them. And since then I haven’t seen Daniel licking his lips as much. This morning, Daniel came up to mom and mom told him that John got a red ring around his mouth when he licked his lips. Daniel said, “Did John have to get new lips when his fell off?” Then mom said, “No, but they just hurt really bad.”
Mom, one day, was asking the little boys what they wanted for Christmas. Daniel was having the hardest time figuring out what he wanted.
Daniel: I want uuuummmm a wight saber ashiley, I want ummmmmm a Vio game, ashily I want a lego batman set, wait no, I eat legos.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The butterfly house got a touch pool with sting rays and little sharks. The first time we went to the butterfly house I did not touch anything, but the second time I went with two friends and I touched every thing.
A sharks tail and a crab of some sort.
There is a more clear picture.
The lion fish the most poisonous fish that I know of.
This plant is unheard of to be sean in SD, it grows in Hawaii.
The second time we went is bellow.
The one on the left is Hannah and the one on the right is Gretchen.
