5 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS

the country kids bus ride!

The other day I rode the bus home with my new friend, Ashley. We got onto her bus (the country kids bus). I felt so out of place there were everyone knew each other and there were only about 20 kids on it. They all lived on farms in the middle of nowhere and only wore camouflage to school everyday ! Anyway I had a great time with her.

11 more days until Christmas!!!

Christmas Dream

I can't wait until CHRISTMAS! The countdown has begun (21 days). I actually just had a dream how it was Christmas eve and I woke up in the middle of the night and it was REALLY early, so I went back to bed I had another dream it was Christmas, Victor unwrapped a red shovel from Talia and I, then I woke up. Sometimes I have some crazy dreams like that one.

Running!!!

I am starting to run with my mom. We are planning on running a 5k sometime!

Chicago

We have gone to Chicago, IL this Fall break. For one the city was absolutely awesome, except some of the people there. They have everything we have, except they have like 10 times better. They have a Macy's that is 8 stories high! They also have the Hersey's place there too, it smells wonderful in that place. We got shakes from another big chocolate place, and had great shakes. We also saw the Blue Man group. They are really cool, they are painted blue, and play music with different kinds of things. Before the show, there were these tubes that had a little sign next to them that said "Chat tubes". I said "hello?" into it a man answered "Hey hows it going?" It was strange, but I did have a great conversation with this guy before the show. During the show they had this toilet paper-type stuff down from the top to the bottom, with strobe lights going on. It was really fun passing the stuff forward! The next day we went to a museum and say all the stuff from all the Star Wars movies! They were awesome, and then we went all around the HUGE museum! We had a BLAST! I hope we go to Chicago some other time, it was really fun!

Alton Brown

For those of you who watch the food network you probably know Alton Brown. We went to the Opryland hotel, and saw him! He was doing a cooking demonstration. He did it on different candies. First he made cotton candy. He made this sugary mixture and added red food coloring and he put two chairs back to back with newspaper under them. He picked up a little bit at a time, and strung it back and forth. He rolled it up and it was cotton candy. Next, he made marshmallows. He used a mixer, but not the one with the flames on it, so he drew some flames on it with a sharpie, it was really funny!!!! At the end he gave them out I didn't get any though. Finally, he made ice cream, but he didn't just use an ice cream mixer he used this liquid nitrogen(Talia has pics. of that on her blog!). It froze really fast . He offered it to my little brother, but my brother wouldn't take it. He offered it to my sister she said it was awesome. He did this thing at the begining that he explained all about different sugars and stuff. Thats the picture I have is of him explaining that and if you look close he has it written on is hand he told everyone!!!! Plus we got great seats, right in the front, we could practically see up his nose, We were that close!!!!!!!!!

"Tree Lady"


You are probably thinking what the heck this is! It is this "Tree Lady" Thing at the Opryland Hotel. She only comes out every so often. She has stilts on her arms and legs as you probably can tell. She doesn't talk she just walk around REALLY slow. She does poses and everything. She even got really close to me and Talia she was almost touching she was pretty and scary at the same time...... If thats possible.

Stuck Locker

I just went to Page to see who are my teachers for this year. I got Mrs. LaFontaine and Mr. Harris. I got my locker and the combination. When I went and tried to open it, It wouldn't open. So My mom tried it and she couldn't get it. Then Mr. Pearson tried to open it he only got half of it open. It was stuck so now I will either get a new locker or get help to try me get it open on the first day.

FAIR

For me summer has felt like a week!!!! School is almost here. I just went to the county fair Friday. i rode most of the rides all except the big circle bumper cars and the HUGE drop!! I even went on the Hammer, It was REALLY scary. The cyclopes was actually really fun! The ION was fun. We didn't even hold on we were having a nice conversation on it while we rode on it. Ferris wheel will always be really scary to me! The Himalaya was fun but my mom got a big bruise from it. The pirate ship was great (it gives you that weird felling in your stomach). The octopus was scarier than I thought, It spun pretty fast. Alpine Bobs is and always will be the best ride, Every time I go there I have to ride that with my sister. I think thats all of them, anyway
It was really fun!!!!

BIG fish

Yesterday I caught the biggest fish I've ever caught! It was a big carp. It was too bloody for me so I didn't hold it. I also caught some catfish. The fish look way bigger in real life!!
