Just this past Saturday our church and some other friends went to the Estabrooks' Apple Gala!
It was really fun! (the Estabrooks hold an Apple Gala every year) We mainly played outside games like, Ultimate Frisbee, Capture the Flag, Freeze tag and Football. (there were probably....at least 50 kids there)
Mr. Estabrooks made apple cider with his 100 year old apple machine thing. It was really good! 10 or 12 of the people brought pies for a contest. (It was the "Best Pie Contest")
After it got dark, and everyone went inside, we all (the kids) played card games! We played Uno and Rummy. (from what I saw)
Sunday, we went to the Marcums' house for our friend, A.J.'s Birthday! He was turning 21!
Mrs. Marcum made a huge rib and pot roast feast. They were the juiciest most tender ribs I had ever had.
After we ate, Paulie, Luke, A.J., Mike, A.J.'s sister Emily and her husband Josh, and I went outside and played Football and Ultimate Frisbee. It was really fun!!
Mrs. Marcum made 2 big German Chocolate cakes! (A.J.'s favorite I guess)
After everyone left (except us and Mike) Mike, Paulie, Luke and I played Rummy for like.....2 hours or something. We had a great time over at their house! Thanks, Marcums!!

Pretty Fall leaves and Baby Chloe!

Ok, I told you that I would post this week, so now I'm posting.
We all took a drive Saturday and Wednesday. (except Paulie and Luke)
We drove near Cades Cove (and went to Gatlinburg) Saturday and we went on just a pretty drive Wednesday. (we went to Newport and saw all the pretty Fall colored leaves!) After all that, we ate at Olive Garden! It was pretty good, except, Sani barfed every where.
Today Mom went to her doctor's appointment for a checkup. We hope the baby comes out healthy.
Usually, we have a bible study with some friends every Thursday, but we aren't doing it tomorrow because Mr. Marcum isn't feeling good and there is a lot of sickness happening now. We don't want to get sick with the baby and all.
Our studies usually are pretty fun! Sometimes people bring snacks and we have a good time.
Ok, Mom just came back from their appointment, and it turns out that she is NOT having a boy!! (I have to admit.....I REALLY wanted a boy. But I also REALLY like the name Chloe Abigail!) Yes, that is the name of the baby!
This morning, all 6 of the TOS staff left. We had lots of fun with them over.
It's going to be nice getting back to my normal schedule.
Julia's party went really well!
She had lots of people over, a huge cake and presents.
We all had a great time.
My brothers and I are a little late, but we are going to get her a GameCube!
We (our whole family) are going to the Gonzalez' house this weekend for a game night! (just board games and poker) It's going to be a lot of fun!
Well, I can't think of anything else to say; I'm not really doing much this week, but I'll post again next week.
Ok, so I had to abide by the new ToU and remove my iFrame....
So now all of my old entries are accessible- I guess that's a good thing.
What's new? Well, I go to Northeast State Tech school here in TN, and I'm hoping to move to ETSU next semester. I'll probably be in school for a long time- I seem to be pretty good at it. I've been in school for over a year and have a solid Honors 4.0 GPA, and I made it to the president's list. I usually do web-development or travel in between semester's but I think i'm going to get a job over the holidays this time.
Anyhow, I need to run to the store- so I better go.
Seeya!

Saturday we are having a birthday party for my sister, Julia! A lot of people are coming such as the Estabrooks, the Gonzalez's, the Petersons, the Marcums, the Marcums' son, Mike, A.J. and his wife Leann.
She is turning 13! Her birthday is on Sunday, and we are going to be having some staff over.
It is going to be a lot of fun. One of the great things about Julia is that she is always giving.
Every time I ask her if I can ride her bike, she always says yes. (my bike is broken)
She is always watching Sani, even if we have company over.
Sometimes I take advantage of what a great sister Julia is.
I am going to try to be a better brother to her, too.
Thank you, Julia!
I just got back from Mexico not too long ago! Dad and I went because we wanted to see our great aunts before they died. We drove to Tasco and I bought myself a silver bracelet. Dad got the boys one too, and Julia a set of earrings, a bracelet and a necklace. We were down there for Mexico's Independence Day. It was a great experience.

Letter's from Wolfie is about a dog named Wolfie and his owner Mark. Wolfie is part malamute and part german shepherd. Mark discovers in the newspaper that the Army is looking for german shepherds to go to Vietnam for Scout Dog training. While Wolfie is in training the man who is handling him writes letters to Mark on Wolfie's behalf.
Mark had decided to send Wolfie to Vietnam for his brother who is in the infantry and for his dad who is very patriotic. Mark thought after the war he would get his dog back, but Capt. Lenz said that all the Scout Dogs where now U.S. equipment and would not be returned. Mark decides to get his and other boys' dogs back from Vietnam. Will anyone help Mark on his quest to save his 4-legged friend?

We don't have a house so we are living in our RV. Here is a picture of what me and my 5 other family members may be living in for awhile.
Our RV is 28 ft long and is a SUNSEEKER.Now that dad has a job I have to do all the RV maintenance. We might be getting a house at the begining of sept.
The reason I haven't been posting recently is because I don't have a computer any more!

We went through Oregon into Idaho then from Idaho into Utah, there we went to golden spike which is where the first transcontanental railway was connected. Than we went to ATK a Nasa station. and right now we are in Wyoming. We are taking our RV and car to Kentucky. Oh cool!
