Its raining its poring, the old man is snoring

Hey guys! Yesterday was interesting. WE all got up and got ready for church...just like normal. WE jump in the car to leave and daddy remembers that the cars windshield wipers don't work well and it is raining..and is supposed to rain all day. So we do a quick car swap..into the one with the bad transmission. We get a mile up the road and daddy turns around because he doesn't want to risk getting stranded. We didn't go anywhere to church yesterday morning bc of the lack of transpertation. I found it odd..very odd. Last night we did go some where. But daddy stayed home and the rest of us went. THen we went to mcdonalds as normal afterwords and momma got to talk to one of her friends for a lil bit. It was an intersting day to say the least. I hope it doesn't happen again soon.

Have any interesting Car stories? HAve any jokes that talk about cars? anyone out there have other words for the song mentioned in the title? If you have an answer to any or all these questions, please comment! I love hearing bout them!

Thanksgiving...do we really take it for granted?

Most of us probably had at least one Thanksgiving sermon yesterday. Some of us even had a testimonial service. I have found that I took one peice of convience for granted until the cold snap this year. We had no heat for several weeks. It took a lot of thinking to keep warm...you used several blankets, you took showers during the hottest part of the day and left the door closed so the steam would heat up the room, and you made sure to dress warmly..and change quickly. I Am also thankful that the Lord still works with his children. I had a friend recently who was in some trouble and refused to come out of it. Now it seems things are looking up. I pray that it will conitnue!

What are you doing for Thanksgiving? Any interesting traditions?

Puppies, teeth, and churches

Hey all! This past weekend the lady that grooms our dogs was out of town. Momma is the lady that is paid to take care of her dogs. She has in the area of 15-20 dogs. But it is pretty easy job. You feed the ones in the big pens. Then you feed the ones in the kennels. Clean out the runs that are connected to the kennels. While momma does that if there are any puppies me and my sister get to play and socialize them. The groomer this time, had two sets of puppies and a mother that was due that weekend. So me and Hannah had plenty of lil fuzz balls to play with. would you guys like some pictures? okay..here they are





cute doggies I know...anyways




I have tooth that I am going to have to have taken care of...its a permanent one and it is giving me fits..its already had a temporary filling put in it. But that was years ago! So now I need it permanently filled. That is going to be a chore and cost $$$$.




Wednesday night was our first night at a new church. My parents felt that it is the Lord's will for us to change Churches. We went to a church that is about 30 minutes away. I had a lot of fun. We played broom hockey to begin with. That was fun, I didn't even get hit! Then we had a Bible study. That was very good. All in All I'm glad I went. I will just have to wait and see what happens if this is going to be the church we attend regularly or not.


Happy thanksgiving everybody!

Lock in anyone?

Hi Ho Cherrio!

Well, I sit here groggy because I just stayed up all Night at Adventure Landing! I have slept some since then, but just enough to get by and not enough to keep me from sleeping tonight. Adventure Landing for those of you who don't know is a place that has Go Carts, Putt Putt (mini golf) courses, Batting Cage, Arcade Games, and Lazer tag. I did all three golf courses, waited in line forever at the Go Carts and drove them twice. I was pretty good at it if I do say so myself. I also played the arcaid games. There was one in particular that I liked. It was a Skate boarding one. I can skate board on it and not get hurt when I mess up! what was hillarous was the first time I get on the thing I start doing the MAJOR trick just by "Spassing out on the thing" (so Nick said). He couldn't believe what I was doing.. I didn't do to bad...but why it said that I was SO a dope..I don't know....

This past week I have been busy taking pictures as well. OUr next door neighbors have gotten a new trailor (the kind you live in). So they have been busy moving the old one out and then moving the new one in. Not to menchen all the things that need to be hooked up...New septic tank..siding...trim..water...electricity...the inspectors..and all that fun stuff! It has been neat to see and I have learned a lot. The people working have not had a problem at all explaining how things worked when I asked smart and thought out questions.

What kind of Arcade games do you like to play? Are they thinking ones or just the reaction sort? Have you ever watched a proffesional work on your house? If so, did you learn anything?

Who said adults aren't fun?

Hey everybody! I spent the coolest few days in Richmond VA! It was great! We went up to see some old college buddies of my mothers. These ladies are hilarious! We went because this past weekend there was a craft show in Richmond that one of my mom's friends goes as a vendor. She makes rubber stamps. The buddy thats a vendor has 3 ladies that come with her to help. We then stay with another buddy of my mother's who lives in Richmond. So its like a mini reunion. The lady we stay with likes working with teens and is SO much fun! anyways..The Events went something like this...

Thursday, we arrived in Richmond at 5 something PM. We talked and goofed off till midnight...yes midnight!

Friday, we went to the craft show and spent most of the day wondering around looking at everything and buying a lil bit too... Friday night we went to Ruby Tuesdays with the whole gang. We heard many funny storys. The banter between everybody was just as entertaining. After we ate we went to the hotel the Vendor ladies were staying at. We played a card game for several hours. The banter continued as did the strange and funny stories! I think we laughed more then we played...thankfully we didn't get in trouble. Even though we did have an aduence for at least a little bit.

Saturday, early rising we headed out for a water aerobics class that the lady we were staying with takes. It was fun! Except there were some of the things we used that pushed up with more weight then I weigh out of water...much less in water....so it made things fun and interesting. I am not sore but my carpel tunnel wrists were not all that thrilled with some of the strain. That afternoon after playing Uno Blitzo and Uno Madness (that game really is MADNESS!) we headed home.

WE did have a slight problem there and back. When we got home we discovered that our transmission had lost a gear or two. We took it in today and it needs to be rebuilt. That is going to cost a pretty penny. Please pray that the Lord will show us what to do, either rebuild the transmission or to buy a new car.

What has been your experiences with your parent's old friends from high school and college? Anything interesting?
