so, how did everyone's April Fools go? I was going to play a joke on Ashley (01charger) when i talked to her that day, but i wasn't able to think of something good to tell her! (lol. you're probably glad, Ash, that i wasn't able to!)
well, the only April Fools joke i did was on my dad. i seem to do basically the same one on him every year (just a little bit different) and he always falls for. :D
this year i told him (keep in mind that my dad really loves to hunt deer!):
"Dad, today i took a walk down the lane, and looked into one of our fields and there was this HUGE buck!!!!"
The look on his face was "WOAH No way!" lol. then i told him that it was an April Fools joke (of course.)
yh. I know. that was kinda a lame joke to do, but i'm not very creative, okay?
here's a April Fools Day cartoon that I found! it's not all that great, but it's something to post, you know?
here's a better one!
So, what pranks/jokes did you do this April Fools? Email them to me at samm76650 @gmail.com (but don't include the space) and what ever prank/joke i think is the best i'll send you $500!!!!
APRIL FOOLS! But no, really! Send them to me! I won't give you $500, but i'll post some of them on my blog! :D You can obviously see that im bored and want something to do, so PLZ send me your pranks/jokes! lol.You know the Nike saying? "JUST DO IT!"
okay, im in a weird mood, maybe it'd be best if i just shut up and.... go. lol.
HAPPY APRIL FOOLS DAY!

ps. just to let you all know, i don't really care about April Fools Day as much as I'm making it out to be.... I just never have anything to post about! :D

hello to all!
i just wanted to wish everyone a very merry Christmas and thought I'd tell you how my Christmas weekend is going to be!
Wednesday, December 24, Christmas Eve:
Starting at 7:00 pm I'm going to my church's Christmas Eve Candlelight Service! Mainly we just go into the sanctuary (and there are obviously only candles lit) and "many" people from our church perform Christmas specials! Either by singing or playing instruments, or reading scripture! I might be singing a different arrangement (like it has a different tune) of "Silent Night" with
Natalie and her sister Jennifer, accompanied by their sister, Rachael on the piano! I also might be singing something with MY sister,
Mandy! We are possibly going to "Welcome to Our World" by Chris Rice. After the service is over we are going to go home and
TRY to get to sleep!
Thurday, December 25, Christmas Day:
Whenever everybody in our family is up, we read the Christmas story from Luke chapter 2, pray, then we open presents! After that we have a big breakfast (i think!) Then sometime in the afternoon (none my family knows when yet! lol.) we are going up to my Grandma and Grandpa's house for Christmas! (The reason for me saying "up to my grandparent's house" is because we share a home with them. They live on the upper level, and we live on the lower level! But it's not like one big house really, it's like two little houses just stacked on top of each other! lol! But anyways, that's beside the point!) Once all 17 of us grandchildren open our gifts, we all will eat our Christmas "feast"! lol. (I already know what I'm getting from my Grandparents! :) I'm getting a really fuzzy house coat! I forget what color it is, though!) Well, after my grandparents house, Christmas is basically done.... we just come downstairs and go TO BED after a long day (hopefully! lol.)
Friday, December 26:
Sometime on Friday afternoon we are going to my Aunt Robin's house for Christmas! We normally go there on Christmas Eve, but it didn't work out this year! It would be more convienent for her and for my dad (cuz he would be working on Christmas Eve, but not this Friday!) Basically, that's all we are doing that day, and we are normally at Aunt Robin's house for the rest of the day! It is SOOOOO much fun! :):):):):)
Saturday. December 27:
We are going to my mom's cousin and cousin-in-law's house, Stacey and Todd! They are having like their 3rd Annual Christmas Party or something! It should be fun! We are supposed to be there sometime around 1 o'clock pm! Most likey no more presents there, though (which is probably good! lol!)
Sunday, December 28:
This Sunday is the Christmas Party that my Sunday School class (grades 7-9) is holding! It's going to be alot of fun! I'm making some (hopefully) RLY good chocolate chip cookies! Our assitant teacher is bringing some punch, and some other people are bring dounuts and other cookies, and things like that! We also have to bring presents for our Secret Sister, which is a person who we drew from our class this fall, and they aren't supposed to know that we drew them! We give them presents and cards though out the year, and we pray for them! I guess that's all I'm doing on Sunday! :(
Monday, December 29:
Man! My weekend just KEEPS GOING! I'm going to be SOOOO tired! That might be a good thing to pray for! lol! My mom actually just reminded me of this event! Well, every year (for I don't know how long) at our chruch, we have this thing called a Progressive Dinner! It's probably obvious what we do, just by the name, but I'll explain anyways! lol! Well, we just drive from house to house and eat the different courses of a meal! It's SOOO much fun! You get SO stuffed! lol! Then once the meal and dessert are over, we go back to the chruch and we exchange White Elephant gifts! We all have an amazing time! I think that this event starts sometime around 5:30 or 6:00 pm!
Tuesday, December 30:
THANKFULLY THIS DAY....... I GET TO REST AND CHILL!!!!!! LOL.
Wednesday, December 31 - Thursday, January 1:
This day is the Watchnight Service, which is ALSO held at my chruch! We paly games and snack on finger foods all night! Then at like 11:00 pm, we go into the sancuary and have a little serivce and the college students share some stuff about what has happened to them through-out this first semester of college for this year! Then right before mid-night, we ALL gather around in a circle around the sancuary, holding hands and some people (only if they WANT to) pray! Then when it turns mid-night, some one is a the organ and the setting is set to a bell, and they press the key 12 times! It's AWESOME! (I got to do it a few years ago! lol! I was excited! lol.) Right before the service most people are saying, "See you next year!" Then once the service is done, it really is the next year! LOL! It's funny!
well, I guess my Christmas weekend, more turned into a Christmas week! WOW! This is going to be one tiring and LONG week! Hopefully it's RLY RLY RLY fun! (Which it should be! lol!)
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!
