Hey Everybody,

Soooo sorry that I haven't posted in a while. I have been meaning to but it is soo busy around Christmas time so you undertand, right? I usually post for writing in school but there has been so much going on that I have had a lot to write in my journal so I have been doing that for my writing. A lot has been going on lately.
     We set up our Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving! When did everybody else do theirs? Ahhh! I can't wait untill Christmas! Only two more weeks exactly!! Indoor soccer has also started! I haven't had any games yet, but I have two tomorrow at 4pm and 6pm. I had an indoor soccer practice though. I"m really excited about our games. GreenPeppermint had a game Saturday but they lost 8-5 I think. Graham also had his first indoor soccer game ever. He has never played indoor soccer but this year he wanted to play. He was realllly excited about his game! Lol! I kept running up and doing chest bumps with the other players on his team...wierd. Then after they scored their goals Graham ran up and hugged his team mate! Lol! He was funny out there. He played really good though. :) They ended up losing 7-2 though. I think Graham liked indoor though. Right now he is singing around the room about school or something. Fields is reading and GreenPeppermint is playing with Quinn. :) Dad also had an indoor soccer game Wednesday. He plays soccer on the coaches indoor soccer team in the winter. It is really fun to watch him play. He played really good. They ended up in a tie, 5-5.
   Last night we went to a Christmas parade. First we went to a friends house and waited and two other family's came and then we walked to the parade. We waited for a while and then the parade started. I only got about 8 pieces of candy because there were toons of smaller kids right by and I don't really like taking all the candy. Lol! I didn't really care though. MBF, GreenPeppermint, and my toes were sooo cold. We couldn't even feel them they were so cooold. It was the coldest my toes were ever before. They were blue when I took my shoes off. The parade was neat. I think my favorite float was probably the grinch float. :) I like the grinch.  Afterwards we walked home with our freezing cold toes. Then when we got a little bit away from our friend's house we started running because our toes couldn't stand it anymore!! We finally got inside and took our shoes off and put our poor, freezing toes by the fire. Lol! Then we ate dump cake and hot chocolate. It was really good. After a while we let because we had to drive all the way home and we live about 45 minutes away. Next year I think MBF, GreenPeppermint, and I will wear warmer shoes. ;) Well, I have to go now. Bye!

Your Friend, Felicity :)

This year of hunting, I got my first and second deer! And Em got her first deer!

Emily and her first deer. Big muley doe. :D

Me and my first deer. Yearling buck. (Note my cool gun please. :P It has 15 deer under it's muzzle) SO FAR! :P

Me and my second deer! Either a baby from this year, or a yearling. It's a doe.

The last few days, we've been cutting up deer. Other people in my family got deer, too. Plus, some other people gave us some deer. So all in all, (including the ones given to us) we've got 13 deer in the freezers! :D

Well, that's all folks!

Hey Everybody!

Here is the update...

 YAY!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!! Wooo hoo!!! I'm going to get Graham's present over Thanksgiving break (the whole week of Thanksgiving off of school)! After that I still have three presents to get! I have Fields' GreenPeppermint's, and Quinn's Christmas presents. :)  Hmmmm...for lunch I am going to have crackers and cheese! YUM! I looooove crackers and cheese! Haha! Tonight Fields' has an end-of-the-season soccer party at Brusters! Yay! It is on a Thursday and every Thursday at Bruster's they have a deal: "Bring Your Own Banana and get Half Price on Banana Split" so we do that every Thursday and GreenPeppermint and I share a banana split (they are big enought to split). Since Bruster's is RIGHT by Dollar Tree (only like 50 feet away) I hope after we eat our ice cream we can go there and buy stuff for our shoe boxes that we are going to fill up. Does anybody else do that? You know, fill up the shoe box and send it to poor people in other countries? Fields and Graham are doing one for a boy aged 5-9 and GreenPeppermint and I are doing one for a girl aged 10-14. :) It will be fun. They are due Monday (I think).
   Here is the website...http://www.samaritanspurse.org/        What you do is you get a shoe box and fill it up with stuff. (ill it up with stuff depending on what age and gender you pick to give it to) The stuff has to be new stuff; not used stuff. You can either wrap the box (lid and box seperate so you can still get it open) or not. After you fill it up (I suggest the dollar store for stuff) you put 7$ in it (for shipping the box) and drop it off at a the nearest drop-off location (on the web-site you can type in your zip code and it will give you directions to the nearest one). It gives you present suggestions on the website too. Oh yeah, you have to print out a label either a boy or girl label (depending on if you are giving it to a girl or a boy) and check off either the box next to 2-4, 5-9, or 10-14. That is what age you are giving it too! You can get more information on it by going to the website.   
    Today is a busy day because right after school we are leaving for art class and then when we get back from that we are going to leave for Fields' party. I was planning to run today but it was too busy of a day so I guess I'll run tomorrow. Last night we went to the YMCA and swam! It was fun...don't worry...it was indoors! We couldn't have stood if it was outdoors! Haha! Well, Sorry about the boring post but I don't really have anything to post about besides boring stuff. :P Well, toodleoodleoo!

Your Friend, Felicity :)

Question: Do you play an instrument? If so, which one?
Answer:  Yes, piano. :)

P.S. I am going to add one Christmas song to my playlist every day.

EDIT: Since I just posted thisthis yesterday I am going to add my tag and something I want to say as an edit. :)

GreenPeppermint and I actually ended up doing a box for a 2-4 year old boy because PeculiarTreasure said that there aren't enough boxes for the boys so I wanted to do a boy and then GreenPeppermint picked out what age. :) Here is what we put in the box...

A Bible (I doubt somebody that young can read but I'm sure somebody there can. :))
a teddy bear
a squishy ball with those things sticking out of it (the balls with gooey stuff in them)
two fun little kid toothbrushes
little kid tooth paste
crayons
coloring book
glow sticks
and Nerds (the candy)

We are also going to do another one today for a 10-14  year old boy because they get the least boxes.

Hey Everybody,

Ok,  here's the update...

my first soccer practice	14 days
Thanksgiving	17 days
We Put Our Christmas Tree up	19 days
Christmas Eve	45 days
Christmas	46 days
New Years Eve	52 days
New Years	53 days

Yesiree, I keep track of it all. Well, anyways. What is everybody doing for Thanksgiving? Comment and tell me. :) Dad is taking off of work for a week I think and we are going to sleep in every day, maybe go to the zoo, and get some Christmas shopping done, and just go places, and on the actual Thanksgiving Day I'm pretty sure that we are going to the get-together Dad's side of the family has every year for Thanksgiving. Well, they have a get-together for every holiday. Haha!
     Does everybody like my Christmas Playlist? I'm going to add more songs soon. I just haven't had time.
    Today we have no soccer at all! I woke up and was deciding what to wear and I was like, "Gasp! What are you supposed to do on a day that we don't have soccer?" We barely ever have any of those days. :) GreenPeppermint does have soccer practice tomorrow and Thursday and then the rest of her soccer tournament on Saturday and Sunday. Fields has an end-of-the-season soccer party at Brusters on thursday.  That's all the soccer we have left though, untill indoor soccer starts. GreenPeppermint is doing good in her tournament. They won their game 7-0 on Saturday  but she hyper-extended her knee in the second half so she couldn't play in the game on Sunday so they lost 3-1. They made it to the semi-finals though and she will be able to play this weekend. Her knee is doing better though. 
          I already have 45 minutes of my school done so I'm early on my school so I am going to make Chocolate Taffy after school. :) It's basicly Tootsie Rolls.
Well, Sorry this post is sort of short but, at least I'm posting. :)

Bye!
Your Friend, Felicity :)

Question: Do you play a sport? I so, what sport?
Answer: ...Do I need to answer this?

Hey Everybody,

It is now only 50 DAYS UNTILL CHRISTMAS!!!!

So I will be putting my Christmas playlist on the side of my blog. I will be putting more songs on it though! Well, Sorry this is so short, but I have to go do school.  MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

Your Friend, Felicity :D

Hey Everybody,

CHRISTMAS IS IN 53 DAYS!!! WOO HOO! I can't wait...I'm planning on having us set up the Christmas tree November 28 because that is the first Saturday after Thanksgiving AND it's only 2 days after Thanksgiving. :) I want to set it up as soon as possible because I already have presents for my family to put under it!  But it wouldn't be right to put it up before Thanksgiving because...well...you know. :)
    I only have GreenPeppermint, Fields, and Quinn's present. I would tell you GreenPeppermint and Fields' present but they look at my blog so I can't or they would know. :)  Quinn's present is a gravity tube. I don't know if you know what that is but it's one of those sticks that if you turn upside down it makes a funny noise and then you turn it right side up again and it makes another funny noise.  After awhile the noise gets annoying but...he will like it and that's all that matters! Haha! Today I came downstairs with my snowman pin I got last Christmas on and I was singing Christmas songs while I was eating breakfast and Mom said, "Felicity, it's not even past Thanksgiving yet!" It's close enough to sing Christmas songs though. :) Haha! I looooove Christmas! *sighs* *stares into space* OH...Ok, back to the post.  
       Guess what? I promised I would post within three days and...I DID! YAY! I fulfilled my promise! :)
Yesterday afternoon I went to the mall with GreenPeppermint, Marjie (GreenPeppermint's friend), and Mary Beth (Somebody off of my soccer team. I'm not talking about MBF. Haha!). It was really fun. I bought Quinn's present and an Aeropostale shirt. :)  Marjie bought foamy hand soap and foamy hand sanitizer from Bath and Body works. Mary Beth bought french fries and a milk shake..haha! GreenPeppermint bought two Aeropostale shirts, a smoothie, and Quinn's Christmas present. 
    Ok...this is weird...the night before we went to the mall in my dream I dreampt  (and I didn't even know that we were going to the mall Sunday or anything) that there were Aeropostale shirts on a rack on a good sale and I bought one....in the mall the day after I had the dream...we went into the Aeropostale store and there were Aeropostale shirts on a rack on a good sale and I bought one...slightly weird with a touch of coolness, right?!  
   OK..I'm sorry I talk about Christmas so much but I CAN'T WAIT!!!!! I still have 5 Christmas presents to buy and I've already bought three!  I have to wait untill close to Christmas to buy two of them and then I have to wait to buy Graham's present untill Thanksgiving week and I'm going to buy Mom's soon and I can't figure out anything to get Dad yet...but I AM going to get him something!  I'll end the post with a Christmas song...sing with me!!! 

Hmmm...wait...what song? How about...uhm...Ok....

DASHING THROUGH THE ROADS! IN A FOUR WHEELED CHEVROLET!  ORE' THE ROADS WE GO! LAUGHING ALL THE WAY! BELLS AND CELL PHONES RING! MAKING SPIRITS BRIGHT! OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE AND SING A SHOPPING SONG TONIGHT! OOOOOHHHH! SHOPPING, SHOPPING, SHOPPING, SHOPPING, SHOPPING THROUGH THE MALL! CHRISTMAS BARGAINS EVERYWHERE! GOT TO GET THEM ALLLL! SHOPPING, SHOPPING, KEEP ON BUYING SPREAD THE CHRISTMAS CHEER!! HURRY HURRY HURRY HURRY CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE!!! HURRY HURRY HURRY HURRY CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE!!!

Wait...that's not what Christmas really is about!

JESUS, IS THE REASON! HE'S THE WONDERFUL REASON FOR THE SEASON, OOOHHH, JESUS, IS THE REASON, HE'S THE WONDERFUL TERRIFIC REASON FOR THE SEASON!!!

Just to let ya'll know..that song is off of patch the pirate! Haha! I haven't listened to patch the pirate in years but I still remember that song! Haha! 

Well, got to go!
Bye!

Your Friend, Felicity =)
