Merry Christmas

Yeah, I know Christmas was a few days ago, but I had to post something about it.

Christmas Eve was spent at my Uncle Ish's house with my dad's side of the family. The 24th is my grandpa's birthday so we had a cake for him after our dinner. It was really good.

Christmas Day was spent at two different houses. In the morning Logan, Dalton, my parents and I were all at our house. My brother's and I all woke up REALLY early, and then had to wait for our mom and dad to wake up so we could open our presents. After opening everything my brothers set to work trying to build and play with EVERYTHING they got! They had enough Legos to open a store, and Logan received a lot of new video games! That afternoon we went to my Uncle Jay and Aunt Lauren's house for Christmas dinner with my mother's side of the family. It was all Italian. The dinner was salad, spaghetti and garlic bread. Our dessert was different kinds of chesecake and tiramisu. I made chocolate cake. It was yummy.

  • A cell phone!
  • A digital photo key chain
  • Clothes {3 Aero shirts, jeans}
  • Books {-The Tales of Beedle the Bard; -Skinned; -I'd tell you that I love you, but then I'd have to kill you; - Cross my heart and hope to Spy; -Burning Up On tour with the Jonas Brothers; -Sleeping Freshman Never Lie}

Happy 15th Birthday!

Okay, so I know its been forever since I posted anything and I have no excuse... Well since I last posted we have had Thanksgiving, Mckinzie's 15th Birthday, some Exams with more to come this week, and my 15th birthday, which was today. My birthday was really cool because I was only in school until 9:50 am. I had one exam today and it was in HOPE {P.E.}. That was annoying because we had to sit on the bleachers in the gym to take the exam and not sit in a desk. It was very uncomfortable! After that, my mom picked me up and took me to the mall to get my ears pierced again, right above my 1st hole. I really like how it looks. :) My family all went to Olive Garden to eat my birthday dinner and came to my house after to eat my cake {Dark chocolate fudge cake with chocolate icing and vanilla ice cream}. It was delicious! Some of my presents included a Jonas Brother's CD and a book in a series I am reading {from Grandma}, 3 pairs of jeans and 3 shirts {from my other Grandma}, a Starbucks gift card {from Uncle Jay, Aunt Lauren and Sierra}, getting my ears pierced {from mom and dad}, money {Aunt Jo}, a clear container of individually wrapped orange flavored tic tacs and money {from Aunt Barb and Uncle Germ}. It was a really fun day.
