Thanksgiving Week


Thanksgiving Week

Hi guys so I am going to tell you about my trip to Vermont for Thanksgiving.

So on Tuesday we got in the car and drove to Vermont. Our plan was to leave on Wednesday. The snow would have been too much to travel through so we had to go early. It was about midnight when we got there. It is a twelve hour car trip. When we got there we went strait to bed. The next day we had a nice big breakfast. We hung out for a while and my parents took my little brother shopping with them. I took a nap while they did that. Then when they got back we had dinner and went to bed.



Thanksgiving day my Aunt, Uncle, and two adorable cousins came. That's when it got loud. My little brother and the oldest cousin are the same age. They are really good friends and also really loud. So pretty much the entire day was cooking for the girls and socializing for the boys. We had a huge thanksgiving feast. My grandmother and Aunt Robyn did a ton of cooking. We had turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry salsa, corn relish, green bean casserole, rolls, and more. We had a great Thanksgiving weekend. Thanks to Grandmama for making the food!





So the next day we decorated for Christmas pretty much all day again. In my opinion Saturday was the best day. We had a girly day where we went to a craft fair. It was really fun! So we looked at a lot of home made things you could buy. There was one of those mouse stand that my Grandmother and I love! She got a few things and I got a mug. It had a mouse in crutches with a broken foot and another mouse with a huge red crayon writing hearts all over it. Then we went to two different body care things (my mother and I) while my aunt and grandmama wondered off. So at the first stand my mom got some bath salts and I got three soaps and a bath bomb. At the second stand my mom didn't get anything but I got a two pack of two cupcake soaps and a three pack of peppermint bark soaps. Then when we got home we had dinner and of to bed.


So in the free time my brothers and cousins and I went out into the snow. They had two plastic sleds. We created a great sliding hill until both of the sleds completely shattered and cracked. They were years old though. We still had fun in the snow. There were huge icicles that we played with. The three smaller boys made a tunnel in the snow for them to go through. Then I sat on it.


So today (Sunday) we are heading back home with another 12 hour trip.

Dumb and Dumber

Dumb and Dumber

Hi guys! so today I am going to be talking about a movie I just saw called Dumb and Dumber. SPOILER ALERT!!!!!

So in the beginning of the movie one of the two best friends (Lloyd) is a limo driver. So he is taking a girl named Mary to the airport to go to Aspen. He instantly falls in love with her. Mary's husband was kidnapped so she leaves a suite case full of money at the airport for the ransom. She gets on the plane to Aspen and Lloyd see's that she left her suitcase. He talks his best friend Harry into going with him to Aspen to return it to her. Harry also got fired from his pet grooming job early that day. Harry's car is covered in carpet made to look like a dog.

So the two people who were suppose to get the money at the airport got mad at them and drove after them to Aspen. They stop for lunch at an old country cafe and threw a salt shaker. The salt shaker accidentally hit a big tough guy in the head. He spits in Harry's food. So when Lloyd is finished eating he offers to buy them beer. Then he goes to the cashier and tells her that the big tough guy was paying for his meal, then they leave really fast. So next they stopped at a gas station where Harry is talking to a girl also headed to Aspen and he accidentally caught himself on fire. So he shaded to the bathroom where Lloyd was to stick his foot in the toilet. He opened the stall door and he hit the big tough guy in the head with it. Lloyd was cowering in the corner afraid of him. So then they pick up the kidnapper pretending to be a hitch hiker. They take him to a bar and put peppers on his burger when he isn't looking. So then when he took a bite out of it he fell to the floor and couldn't breath. He told Harry to get his pills but Harry grabbed the wrong bottle and it was the poison he was going to give to them. He gave it to the guy and he died.

So now just the girl bad guy was after them. So they made it to Aspen and found Marry after opening the suitcase and spending all the money on junk and making I owe you cards. So Harry starts seeing Marry and Lloyd gets mad at him for stealing his woman. Lloyd takes Marry to his apartment and gives her the suitcase filled with I owe you cards. Then the kidnapper comes and gets mad because of the money missing. Harry is in the lobby and see's the girl he met at the gas station. She gives him a bullet proof vest and tells him she is an FBI agent. So the guy shoots Harry but he only pretends to die. The police come in and arrest the man. Marry gets her husband back. Harry and Lloyd go back home.

So this movie was really funny. I liked it a lot.

Friends Thanksgiving

Friends Thanksgiving

Hi guys! So today I am going to be talking about my friends thanksgiving. Friends thanksgiving is something we do every year. We gather a bunch of friends at one of their houses and we have a thanksgiving party.

So this year it was at our friends Larry and Alex's house. When we got there it was pretty quite but that changed fast. I spent the first ten minutes texting my friend in New Jersey. Then Madeline came. If you have read some of my past blogs you know about her but she is the daughter of a family friend. She is only two or three but she is so adorable and sweet. So we ate dinner first. There was so much food. There was tons of deserts too.

The food was really good! So thank you to everyone who made all of it. So after dinner Madeline asked me to play hide and seek with her. Madeline's version of hide and seek is telling you where to hide then going and counting and coming back to you. It's a little boring but she is to cute to not play with her. So while we were playing hide and seek a lot of the boy children were playing sword fighting. That was scary but since I'm significantly taller than all of them I just carried her through. During our game a kid named Austin joined in on the fun. He is 14 years old.

Their family left pretty early due to Madeline's bed time. So then I was left with Austin and Helena. We played nerf pretty much the rest of the night. Helena is a friend that I only see around twice a year. She is really nice and fun. She is 12 and in 6th grade.

So thanks to everyone who made this friends thanksgiving happen and it was fun!

Halloween

Halloween

Hi guys! So today I am going to be talking about my Halloween.

Where I live Halloween got moved back a day because my town is big on football. So we went to a family friends house for Halloween. They live in the part of town that most people go to trick or treat. So we walked around only for a little while because we had a toddler. Then we headed back to her house.



So when we got back we just sat around and talked and handed out candy. So a funny story about that is her husband ordered a subscription to get some whatchamacallit bars. He forgot to cancel it and so he got two subscriptions. He wasn't going g to eat that many so he decided to hand them out for Halloween. So these bars are huge king size candy bars. So all the kids walk away amazed.

So next he is going to get a mod of kids disappointed that he doesn't have huge candy bars. So we ate candy and cupcakes for the rest of the night. We just hung out and talked. We had to go home around 9:00. Some people went trick or treating on the right day because they hadn't heard it had been moved.

So that was my Halloween. I hope you all had a scary Halloween!

Dad's Halloween Makeup

Dad's Halloween Makeup

Hi guys so today I'm going to tell you about my dad's Halloween makeup.

So this Halloween my dad was the devil. My mother and I worked on his makeup. So first we painted his entire face red. Next we took black and darkened it up around his eyes a bit. Then we took black mascara and ran that through his eyebrows. Next we filled his eyebrows, goatee, and mustache in with black paint. Last we put powder to make his face matte.

I think that we should have made his face look more darkened and dirty like it was around the eyes. I also that we should have just stuck with mascara and not the black paint for the eyebrows, goatee, and mustache. I think it turned out ok but if we had more time it would have been better.

We also put on one of my moms darker lipsticks on him. That part looked really good because you're lips are naturally darker than you're skin. I think that we also should have countered a little bit with the black using a light hand.



Overall I had fun doing it and it was great for the one night.
