Thanksgiving (GO UTES!!!)

On Wednesday, my small family of five went out to eat at a nice restaurant with a weird name. Sorry, I can't remember what it was called... haha But then we went to see A Christmas Carol in 3D. It was a weird movie.. good, funny, and a bit creepy! We shopped for a bit also, yay Bath and Bodyworks!!!
Thanksgiving was a bunch of fun! Turkey, Pie, Homemade Candy, Stuffing, Green Bean Casserole, Cranberry Sauce... etc. My Mom did a great job with the Bingo games for the kids, along with prizes and everything! (Yay 2 dollar bills!!) A big thanks to Jeremy and Leisa for hosting us all at the Feast! We know it's a LOT of work!!! Maura made delicious home made bread, and the annual cheese ball, yum!
Thank goodness for the good weather, it made playing outside a lot more fun!



Eww, Mommy and Daddy Kissing!!! :P

My 15th Birthday Party!!!

We bought tickets to go see New Moon on the big screen after school. I think everyone liked it, especially Annika, who thought seeing Taylor Lautner take his shirt off was the best part of the entire movie! (I gotta admit though, that WAS INSANELY AWESOME!!! :) New Moon was much better than Twilight was, I loved every minute of it! There was only ONE cheesy part in this one!

After the movie, we all came back to my house. We picked up Pizza on our way back, had Pumpkin Pie (because I don't like cake) and ice cream. I got some awesome gifts, thank you everyone! Then we played Air Hockey, DDR, Pool, Board Games, the Lemon Juice game, night games etc. Everyone seemed pretty tired towards the end! Or at least, I was!!!

King Chickens

Can I just say, I miss my old house! My new house is wonderful of course, but there is something about a big red barn, swingset, treehouse, over 40 trees, wide open grassy lawns, and PET CHICKENS!!! Chickens are my absolute FAVORITE animals! They are quite entertaining, and make th emost interesting sounds! Not to mention they laid eggs for us too!
At our King Family Sunday Dinner, we celebrated my birthday and my Grandma made me a cake and a yummilicious dinner! I love Orange chicken and rice! Wow I'm using lots of exclamation points... haha Now I just can't wait to see NEW MOON!!!!
I love how all my Reichert Cousins hug me, offer me candy (candy they bought with their OWN money, from Cummings Chocolate Studio, I might add!) and scream they miss me ever since I moved! :)
Me and one of my old chickens!!

Hair Hayday

So on Sunday we had our Smith Family Sunday Dinner. We celebrated Maura's, Garrett's and I's birthdays. (Thank you everyone!!! :) My yearbook was left downstairs on the couch, and all the adults had fun looking at the RIDICULOUS hairstyles teenagers have nowadays. From that, I decided to take pictures of the backs of everyone's heads. Only the following complied:
Rowan

Papa

Kayla (I did her hair in that AWESOME twist!!!! :)

And last but not least, uncle Josh. Yes, our GoldiLocks here has hair long enough to french braid!!! Now we see where Kayls gets it from! ;)

Auntie Nichole made delicious homemade Enchiladas. Auntie Leisa bought a yummy taco salad (wasn't really a taco salad, so much as normal lettuce with a ranch dressing/taco sauce mixture on top).

Hot Dogs and S'mores

We all had nice Halloweens. I went over to Kayla's for a sleepover. We managed to Convince Darren's mom to let him Trick-Or-Treat with us. When we were done with that we went back to Kayla's house and had some Caramel Apples. I don't really know what the rest of my family did, all they said was they went trick or treating. So, haha I guess my night was more fun then theirs! Oh! And Kays and I watch The Village, it wasn't very scary. I love Scary movies, but I'm getting so used to them that now I don't get scared anymore.

Tonight we all went up to Nana's and Papa's to enjoy some S'mores and Hot Dogs over the new fire pit Papa made. I even ate a hot dog, and I don't usually like meat so I was proud of myself! :)
