Saturday, December 27, 2008 - Blog update!
Hey, everyone! How are you? I'm good, I'm pretty much over my cold (my brother got it, though ), except I have some SERIOUS updating to do so here is my update! Oh Wait! before I start, I should probably mention that this post is about my visit to the Cranes [parent's old youth ministers and 2nd cousins and my 3rd cousins], so to understand it you have to read a few previous posts if you haven't yet -- OK
1. We took the LONG drive down there and ate lunch at Taco Cabana in **City name here**. Then we drove the rest of the way which was no where near as long.
2. We did introductions [since we hadn't seen each other in forever] and got a tour of their house, which was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
3. We just kinda hung around for a while; my mom with Mrs. Crane, my brothers and dad with Mr. Crane down at their shooting range (they're big time shooters, used to do it competitively), and me hanging around with Jesse, the dog they were dog-sitting.
4. I went down to the shooting range and tried my hand at it. 'Shot a 22 rifle ....I missed! ...But I shot one! Then went back to the house and hung out with Jesse some more.
5. Mr. Crane and I went and looked for the neighbors horses to feed them carrots, (all the Cranes horses died of old age..........BIG shocker to me and my family) but they weren't there. So we went back to the house. I stayed there but he went back to check on the ham he was smoking and the boys at the shooting range.
6. Then I went back to the shooting range and watched my brothers and Mr. Crane while sitting with my dad till they were done shooting.
7. We all walked back to the house and my me and Mrs. Crane started out to see if we could find the horses again......we did and we fed them carrots, then my mom and brothers and dad and Mr. Crane all gradually came out too!
8. We all walked back to the house and my mom, me, and Mrs. Crane started working on the sides for the meal while all the boys played Guitar Hero on the Wii. Then we ate the delicious meal!
9. After eating we sat at the table and talked, then me and my brother Ethan played Guitar Hero again, because I didn't get to and I wanted to.
10. Then I played with Jesse some more while the boys went outside and fired the firecracker gun! Then we all played Scatter-gories(sp?)............... BEST GAME I EVER PLAYED!!!!! 
11. After that the boys and I went upstairs and played ping-pong while my mom and Mrs. Crane sat and talked and relaxed. Then we slowly left for the long drive back home, but had an interuption when we were about 3 minutes from our house.
12. Just before we turned into our neighborhood we saw the body of a car and my dad pulled over.......There was a suburban almost completely over-turned!!! Since my dad has experience [he's a fire-fighter] with accidents he went to see if he could help. Remember it was dark and on the side of a main road with a good amount of cars going about 40 mph! At 11:30 at night!!    
13. No one was hurt though, so we continued the drive.....of like 3 minutes! And once we got home we all went to shower and SLEEP!
THE END! 
Ok, sorry that was so long and if you think I added to much detail.....I'M SORRY! 
Thanks for reading!
