Nov. 4, 2009 - On a calander, I am weighed down, chained, slowly dragging myself towards December.

    So, Taylor, Hailey, and I must have gone crazy. We're typing up Lord of the Ring on our computers. We're going to act it out.

    I had a flute competition on Sunday. I WON.  

    Taylor, Hailey, and I played our instruments at a church.

    My birthday's in a few days. about 20-something days.

    Taylor did nursery at church last Sunday. Hailey's doing nursery this week, and me the week after that.

    Taylor also is a little sick.

    We're going to the Annie Moses Band concert this Sunday!

    We have a day off of school today.

    Taylor and Hailey got me seasons 3 & 4 of I Love Lucy for my birthday!

Oct. 23, 2009 - Early one morning just as the sun was rising, I heard I young maid sing in the valley below. Oh, don't decieve me, oh, never leave me. How could you use a poor maiden so?

I got my hair cut today, so I'm going to post pictures. (You may not be able to see much of a difference because of the view of the picture.)

Hi! Well, on... when was it? Thursday night I got a sore throat. It got worse that day, but not too bad. Then, it was the same on Friday, and Saturday. On Sunday it turned into a cold, and it was a worse cold on Monday. On Tuesday we went to this man's house who had built a Western Town in his backyard. He acted in Western movies. Nothing much happened on Wednesday, except Momzy started getting sick. Right now, Hailey's at violin lessons, Taylor's watching The Fellowship of the Ring's behind the scenes, and I'm watching The Return of the King.  Tomorrow we're going to the STATE FAIR!
