Saturday Syrup

Hello All!
Today is Sunday and we just got back from church and SAMS. Dad got a REALLY comfy computer chair! (Acually, I think I'm on the home computer more than he is so it's MY chair:P) But this title is "Saturday Syrup" so I'll have to tell you about yesterday.
Dad and Ronaldo went to OK City at 5:00am for a soccer tournament. Little sister #1 and I made some August pies together. Well, OK not together. We took turns doing ingredients and reading ELSIE'S CHILDREN out loud. Baby Lily died in the story. It was her turn to read and I could barely hear anything. She cried and cried:P
Anyway the pies got done (we had them this morning for breakfast by the way:9) and then we heard Ronaldo's team made LAST PLACE and had to come home that night instead of the next day! Kinda good and kinda bad. They still outplayed everyone though. I made some French Toast and here's where the syrup part comes in. I sit by J man and he wants some syrup on his toast. I reach over and kinda miss the bottle and J man's hand was there so it fell over - spilling all over little sister #1 and my ELSIE'S CHILDREN book. So of course who cares that syrup's on the table, just grab the book. It was closed so it just got on the OUTISDE of the pages. Rinsed it off and ran a hair dryer through it. No crinkled up pages, no stains except for some in those front pages that don't have anything on them. Now you can't tell what happened besides the fact that it has a lovely scent of 100% pure, Vermont Maple Syrup!!!

OK, I'll Post Again:P

Hope all you Dads had a happy Fathers Day! (Red-head girlfriend and I had talked about whether it was it had a ' thing in FATHER' S. We decided we could spell it either way!) My Grandmas H and S were here and they left this morning. We went to OLIVE GARDEN and everywhere else to shop! We got the PRIDE AND PREJUDICE movie!!! They also bought an 16ft by 4ft swimming pool that we were planning on paying for ourselves BUT... our Grandma, Pawpaw, Grandpa, and Nana said they were paying for it! THANK YOU GRANDPARENTS!!!!!!!!!!!! It's sitting in the backyard waiting to get set up. Fun Stuff!

Tater-tot

Tater-tot is my cousin that is here right now. He'll be here for about 3 weeks. We were doing school still at first but now we're doing extra school for money instead of the Summer Reading Program. I think I'll do some vocabulary 2day for a dollar. I'm reading Pride and Prejudice now for 5 dollars. I started it for fun and now I'm getting money for it! FUN!!! I'm going to read Little Women soon. If anyone has any report of ERAGON by Christopher Paolini (I spelled that wrong, I just know it!) comment me on it. It looks like a fun read but you never know.
But anyway this doesn't have anything to do with Tater-tot except that he's participating. Ronaldo's having fun because TT is so close to his age. They've been playing soccer a lot. We're also currently making an FBI movie with our guest star. (Hi Ace Productions!:P I finished editing two movies and I'll probably be able to bring them next week.)
Have a Blessed Day!

Piano Partying

I want to put this on a separate post just for the sake of putting another post in!:P
Laney and I went to a piano party at Britt's. Laney played her songs good and then I walk up and forget my song! Laney said, "Geez, and everyone knows you're my sister!" lol! I gathered my thoughts and got it right the second time. After that everyone went outside to eat. Yum! Some of the little guys were playing a game like musical chairs except you have to step on wooden circles. I got Hannah to play with me and even though Luke tried desperately to turn off the music and get me out of the game... I won and got some scrapbook paper! We played musical bingo and I didn't win. I get pegged with beans and little tree gumballs and then......Dad comes to pick us up! Fun time!

We were just about to have tea today when the doorbell rings. It was Grandma and Mangnay! What a Surprise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a Blessed Day!

A Week Off!

My Dad is off work this week so we get off school this week!!!!!!! (*Sigh* I love homeschooling!) We haven't been doing much at all which is really nice but I bet it wouldn't be nice forever!:D Last night or the night before we were all just laying around in the living room and Dad turned on all of the rocky, rappy, christian music you can think of! TOBYMAC, KUTLESS, POD, SKILLET, THOUSAND FOOT CRUTCH, etc. Man! Christian dances like a disco robot, it's soooo goofy! His true self comes out anytime this particular song comes on:P Mild-mannered Joshua has a loud voice that sings out rap songs adorably! I can't say that I wasn't going a little crazy too....Gave myself a headache slinging my hair around. I don't know if anyone noticed...Shhhhhhhh.
