RVR

Last week the 6th and 7th grades went on a 3 day long field trip to River Valley Ranch, home of about 60 horses, 3 half mile long zip lines, 1 quarter mile long zip line, high and low ropes courses and much more! There was beautiful weather (until Friday when it rained) and the talks were amazing. Here are some of the many pics I took.

Of course we had to have games, this is Syd's mom trying to maneuver an Oreo into her mouth without using hands.

Victoria and Kathryn- notice the shirts? Our small group custom made them
I'm guessing Catie isn't a morning person!

SURPRISE!!!!!!

As most of you probably know, we have been waiting to get a puppy since last Sunday. After having to take our old dog, Spencer, to the Humane Society we (more like me and Hannah) have been wanting to get another dog. Last Sunday we visited a breeder who had Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies- perfect dogs for family life. As soon as we saw them we all feel in love. We knew we had to get one. Mom and Dad said we would get one on Saturday (secretly planning to surprise us after school on Friday with the puppy). Well, Thurday afternoon I was walking to the car after a long day of school. I tossed my backpack in the car and my mom told me to look down. I looked down and all I saw was a box. I thought it was just a regular box, until it moved. I slowly opened the lid to reveal TWO adorable puppies!!! You have no idea how excited I was! I immediately went to show my friends the puppy I had waited for and then had the whole school surrounding me and my little dog. After school we went to PetSmart to get all the supplies. Once again, almost everyone wanted to know about the two brothers. We decided on the names Bailey and Brody, and they are already learning their new names.

Sorry there aren't more pictures. I'm doing this before school and I don't have enough time. I'll make sure there are more by tomorrow.

Relaxing in FL

I am very sorry I haven't been updating my blog, but I've been very busy! For spring break we decided to drive to Florida to visit family. Here are some pictures my mom took with her camera ( as usual!). Yum... boiled peanuts...
Me and my cutie cousin Tanek

Yes, Florida does have alligators. What a surprise.

Hey! Sign my guestbook, but make sure you don't put you're real address (just put your state) or your last name.

BRACES!!!

Well, today I got my braces. It took FOREVER to get them on! Then they had to suck the spit out of my mouth it was not a relaxing or enjoyable experience but I had Maddy by my side umm just... well being annoying jk!! Then they put this wierd thing around my lips and personally I think I looked like a duck. The cement tasted horrible and it hurt when they put the rubber band color things on. Then we went to Boston Market and I got mashed potatoes(yummy yummy in my tummy!lol) and macaroni and cheese. We went to the mall and bought mom some jeans. Maddy kicked a soccer ball the whole time in Old Navy and ran into people who looked at her like she was wierd or something (now where would they get that idea??). We went to the bookstore and got frappacinos(once again, yummy in my tummy!)

Off School for SNOW?

Yes, we are off school for snow. So if we don't have school, why isn't there snow? We haven't gotten a decent snow all winter! I really want to go outside and go sledding and fun stuff like that. Maybe this time the snow will stick for more then a day and a half!

Superbowl

Okay, I know all you guys are probally either stressing out or cheering you heads off when I'm writing this right now about the Superbowl. But guess what, I think the Patriots AND the Giants did a really good job (and I also think Patriots should've won.Yeahh!!! Go Patriots!!). And Maddy, I DON'T CARE!!! The only reason why the Giants won was because of that last touchdown. So please don't rub it in my face that I wanted the Patriots to win.
