Dinner friends

Today our family friends are eating diner over here. My dad and Mr. Pierra went for a run earlier and we figured that they should stay for dinner as well.

This is my sister, Alicia, and her friend Elise. They are currently listening to Audra's music and messing with Alicia's hair.

Got a Clue?

I'm just starting to get sick of this game as we have played 3 games today. I guess I have some sort of talent cause I have won all the games so far today. (Yesterday this was not the case.) It seems as if Mrs. Peacock has done the murder half the time.

Today is so far the first day that no friend has called and asked to hangout. It sort of nice because I had to turn down two yesterday. Before yesterday I had been to friend's houses three days in a row. I really like going places I was just ready for a break and I admit it was nice.

Mom just finished her puzzle after working on it for a couple days but did help her by putting two pieces in. I guess that means I did 1/500th of the puzzle.

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays since Christmas has past.

Sorry I haven't Posted for like a month. Life is busy and it seems whenever I do get the chance I procrastinate and go on something else like facebook or I check my email since those are quite a bit easier and quicker than blogging. However blogging has a certain feel that you never get on facebook so I try to Post when I can (or feel like it).

I suppose what has really motivated me the most right now is that I got a digital camera for Christmas and well now I don't have to steal my mother's camera every time I need a good picture for my blog.

Last night we had company as Mike and Lydia came over for dinner while we ate some Chicken that my Mom had freshly cook. However, we all gathered at the table a bit too early only to hear that had to cook more which ended be around a half an hour.

Today Aunt Martha, and Cousins Ben and Hannah stopped by to drop off Hannah who was staying the night with my sisters. Ben, Hannah, My sisters, and I played a game of Clue and well the cops had to Arrest Mrs. White for killing Mr. Boddy in the Dinning room with a led pipe. Somehow I find that hard to picture. Anyway Audra won. My sisters and Hannah just finished another game where Mr. Green killed Mr. Boddy the Ballroom with a wrench in which Audra won again. It doesn't help that everyone cheats and steals or looks at other people's cards.

I really hope that now with my swim season done I will be able to post more. Happy Holidays.

A Trip to Grandmother's House

Yesterday we took a trip Grandma's (and Grandpa's) house. As soon as we finished eating lunch we all jumped in the car and scooted off to their house. I took a quick pic of the Erie canal as we drove over it.

We found grandma on her back porch watching the birds when we came. I never got a chance to take a picture of grandpa because he was taking a nap.

Alicia set up this playmobil house with grandma's extensive playmobil set. I turned of quit nice. Unfortunately she had to pick it up when it was time for dinner. We had a scrumptious meal there too and after we finished Aunt Martha, Ben, Hannah, and Uncle James stopped by to drop off the sleeping bag we left a cousin camp. Oh, and you can't leave grandma's house without some skittles and a life saver. It's just the way it works.

A Pet Peave

One of my pet peaves is when my sister runs around with a broom and my other sister testing all of the fire alarms and screeming once they go off. I'm not sure why they find so much Joy in this but it certinatly drives me crazy.

Cousin Camp!

The past few days I've been away at cousin camp and at Aunt Martha's house. It was a lot of fun here are some pictures.

Here's cousin Joe swinging around his giant Zucchini

Here's Aunt Rachel taking Kotty for a walk on here Rollerblades. Personally I thought she was crazy but maybe that's just because my dog pulls a lot.

Here's Ben going down the zip line which is a lot of fun.

Here are my two sisters, Audra and Alicia and cousins Ben and Micheal

Aunt Rachel made pancakes for breakfast. Yum!

After breakfast, Ben, Micheal and I had a scooter race which was a ton of fun.

Here's All of us.

Chillin'

Today was sort of a lazy day since it was the one day that my Mom doesn't have to clean a house (which she does once a week to bring in a little more revenue) or watch other kids.

Here is a picture of my sisters (the ones on the swings) and our next door neighbors, who often play with my sisters, on the swing set which hardly ever gets used anymore. They are also the kids my Mom watches on Wednesday and Friday.

Fashion Modeling

Today Alicia and Caeden, my neighbor decided that they wanted to do a fashion show and made Audra and I be judges. It was interesting. To the left is Alicia's outfit for the wilderness round. She got 28 out of 30 from the judges. Caeden's outfit was a little strange so I decided not to show it.

To the right is Caeden's outfit for the casual round. He got a 30 out of 30 from the judges.

This is Caeden's outfit for the foreign round. He got a 23 out of 30 especially because he didn't even know what country he was modeling for.

This is Alicia's outfit for the foreign country round. She was modeling for Japan. She got a 30 out of 30.

Crippled Bowling

Today, my family went bowling with some friends. All of us kids bowled while the Adults sat around and talked. Lately I have only been able to wear one shoe because my cast won't fit in a shoe. It was quite awkward when I got up to the place where they rent out shoes and only asked for one shoe. It's not that easy to bowl when your crippled. We went bowling with Sam, Jacob, Melissa (melimouse), Sarah (Sam's sister), my two sisters (Audra and Alicia), Jackie (Sam's little cousin), and Margret (Sam's other sister). Sam, Jacob, Melissa, and I were in one lane and Sarah, Audra, Alicia, Jackie, and Margret were in another lane.

The first game our lane played we played serious. The second we did wacky techniques like you had to bowl with your eyes closed or something like that. Most of us participated in that.

After that, we ate junk food at McDonald's to top it all off.

The second picture is a picture of the moms. The bottom left one is my mom, The bottom right is Melissa's mom, the top left is Jacob's mom, and the top right is Sam's mom. Melissa and Alicia are also in the background.

The Elfy Story

This is my sister Alicia. She's really fun to annoy and sometimes Audra and I team up on her. You may be thinking, oh that poor little girl. If you ever have gotten attacked by her you won't think of her like that any more.

One time Audra and I came up with a really silly story about her and it still drives her crazy. We were looking at pictures and there was a picture of her as a baby and we told her that wasn't really her. We said it was someone named Elfy that was the real baby mom had and that we had bought Alicia from the next store neighbors for two hundred dollars (that's all she was worth.) Then we said that Elfy now lives in Grandma's basement. Key thought: Grandma doesn't have a basement. We also showed Alicia a picture of a snowman we made and said that was what she looked like before she was born to the next store neighbors.
