Thanksgiving

I love Thanksgiving! For one, it gives you a good excuse to stuff yourself and eat a lot. And second, it definitely makes you realize what you are thankful for. So here's some things that I'm thankful for:

1. I'm thankful for my family who love and support me.
2. I'm thankful for all of my good friends. They help me get through tough times and are always here to catch me when I fall.
3. I'm thankful for my church and God. Without them, I don't know where I'd be right now. It's a great feeling to be a part of such a wonderful religion and be part of God's great plan.
4. I'm thankful for the beautiful house that I live in. It protects me and gives me a place of comfort and peace when I need it.
5. I'm thankful for my education. I love learning new things, and I'm grateful that I have the ability to get a good education and learn new things.
6. I'm grateful for this country. I love this country and it means a lot to me that people fought for my freedom and happiness.
7. I'm grateful for my health. I'm so thankful that I am healthy and able to do the things that I need to.
8. I'm grateful that as a family, we have enough money for things that we need. Money is not the key to happiness, and that is why this is at the bottom of my list.

These are just some of the many things that I'm thankful for. Thanksgiving is a great holiday. Although we won't get to celebrate with our WHOLE family like we usually do, change is good. We're still going to have a good time with each other.

Today

Today my mom checked me out early from school to babysit some kids. I babysat:

Morgan - age 6
Mason - age 4
Torie - age 2
David - age 1
Hailey - age 7
Grant - age 7

I'll show you the relations:

Morgan and Mason are my sister and brother (Morgan is my sister, Mason is my brother)
Torie and Hailey are sisters (they are both girls)
Grant and David are brothers (they are both boys)

Torie and David are soooo cute! So, while Grant and Hailey were eating their popcorn they started arguing over who was cutest: Torie or David. Of course, each voted for their own siblings so they tell me to decide who is cuter. I said both because I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings! Decide for yourself who is cuter!

Torie: she is ALWAYS smiling! Her laugh is sooo cute! She has the prettiest blue eyes and really white skin! When she laughs she sticks her tongue out. She loves to cuddle and she loves to be held and cuddled with.

David: he has red hair and blue eyes. They are the same color as Torie's but he has really small pupils, so they look lighter. He's just learned how to walk, so he waddles. When we were jumping on the trampoline, he liked to walk really close to the edge. When I yelled at him because he almost fell off, he would have the biggest smile on his face. He was doing it just for my reaction. It was cute, but I got frustrated because he nearly fell off onto the rocks! lol

Here are some pictures of them (Katie and Me got them to kiss but I can't find that picture!)
This is Torie and David. It was on different days but David is wearing the same shirt! I like your look Katie! :D


This is a picture of all of them. Hailey is holding Torie. Morgan is in the middle. Grant is holding David.

here's a closer look. Mason tripped so they were watching him when I took the picture.

Here's a better close up. Everyone is looking except for Torie. (Morgan is the tallest! :) )

That's basically what I did today.

Pictures of me

this is me right now!

Christmas

Today is Sunday. I have finally decided what I'm going to get my friends and family for Christmas, but I won't say because they might see it (KATIE!) lol. I think it's an awesome idea. I have about $85 saved up, so hopefully that will be enough to get everything I need to. I'm not quite sure what I want for Christmas, but I NEED a new backpack. I really like those Jansport backpacks but my mom laughs every time I ask her to get me one. They're pretty expensive, for a backpack.
I made a list and I think it looks something like this:
- Cell phone [my mom laughed and said, 'yeah right' but I still want one!]
- Those packet things for my FLY pen
- Gameboy ADVANCE games
- computer games
- Books (Mary Higgins Clark, Stephenie Myer [She won't have a book out by Christmas, but I can still wish, right?], Jack Weyland, Anita Stansfield, or Lisi Harrison.
- Camera (one of those cheap mini digital ones that you can buy at like Wal-Mart)
-Hairspray [movie, the newer version on DVD], High School Musical 2
-Ipod [once again, she laughed, but a girl can dream!]

Well, that's about it. . . .

Halloween!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

soooo..... today was purty boring. Halloween was yesterday. I dressed up as a pirate! Arrgh!! My mom's friend painted my face and I bought accessories and stuff. It was way cool. I went trick-or-treating with Katie. I didn't get that much candy, Morgan got the most! It's because I only went around to all the cars once at the trunk-or-treat and we only went to, like, 5 houses. So.... my candy will probably only last me a couple of weeks. Unless my mom throws it away, of course. Oh and my first BYC meeting was last Sunday. It was pretty cool. I got to interact with all of the people and I got an idea of what I'm supposed to prepare for for next time. It was... interesting to be with my dad there. But he was a big help and he walked me through step by step what I should be doing. So yeah. It was cool. Yep, yep, yep. . . I still haven't asked Ben and Jacob to be in my photo shoot yet . . . grrrrrrrrr
