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!!

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! Over and out!

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.

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.

He is turning 16 this year, Wow! He is becoming Mama's big boy. LOL! HaHa! The great thing about Dylan is that he knows when I'm joking around and knows when to ignore me when I start acting dumb. LOL! We are going to his party tomorrow though. I am looking forward to seeing him again because I haven't for quite a while.     We met the Sensenig family at a park one summer.   Anyway, Mom and Dad invited them up a couple of times just to visit and have lunch or dinner with us.   Dylan and I became great friends and we hung out every time I saw him.   He is very talented with the guitar and the drums. Err....the kongo bongos. ; )   He and his family have spent the night a couple of times, but one time we stayed up so late listening to his "night night" music. (We love listening to jazz a lot!) Hey Dylan, now that I bought a D.S. Lite, we can play together and I won't have to use yours!     Anyway,  I just wanted to say Happy BirthDay to my awesome friend Dylan!!!!   P.S. I don't know if Paulie told you this but, we bought a Play Station 3!! But, we didn't buy it for gaming purposes. We bought it mainly for watching DVDs. Because we bought an HD TV, we needed a really nice DVD player. It is a very good quality DVD player. Paulie wants to play a little bit with his friends though on his college party. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/592479/ Fri, 19 Sep 2008 17:14:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/592479/ Sorry guys, I know, it has been way too long. No need to post about the CA trip because Paulie has already done that, so I'll talk about what we did tonight and our also about our next trip. The Baughns and the Prices came over and had dinner, brownies, coffee and talked about TOS. They are all gone now though. Ok, Friday morning we are all leaving for Indiana. Because we need to talk with our lay-out guy (TOS related). As far as music goes. Paulie, Luke and I like to play the Piano, guitar and the bass. We practice as much as we can. (except for Paulie. He doesn't practice as much - too much college homework.) Ok, well I will try to comment soon. I have to go now! http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/582827/ Sat, 30 Aug 2008 20:54:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/582827/ Yesterday was Jessica and Daniel's Birthday's!!!! Well, I have "yesterday" but this is an old draft that I never got around to posting. So bear with me. I'm really bummed I didn't bring the camera so now I can't put pictures up. Before dinner, we were all playing Frizzbee and talking. Daniel showed me his Corn snake! His snake laid 13 eggs and I got to hold one. He said that I could have one when they hatch! (Mom said "gross" and "no".) After dinner, everyone went outside and it was pouring hard!!! Most of us stayed out for a long time, but then I and a couple other kids went inside. Paulie, Tim Jaime (Hi-may) and JohnMark stayed outside with their shirts off acting like a bunch of dingbats! Mrs. Estabrooks made a really good cake; It looked very ruby red. Everyone loved the cake; I had two pieces! After everyone was done with there dessert, Daniel played the piano and everyone sang! Now, as the adults were talking, the electricity went out and then came back on. They had candles out there and Dad was acting silly with Mom. Then, about a minute later, it went out again and stayed off. Everyone was having a lot of fun! Mr. Estabrooks and I lit all the candles and found flash lights. It was funny because right when we left, all the electricity came back on! LOL! We had a great time over at their house. Thanks Mom and Dad for taking us (and ClaraBaughn!) over there! I'll post again soon since we are NOW in AZ on a huge summer trip on the road. God bless all of you! http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/554184/ Sun, 20 Jul 2008 17:09:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/554184/ My grandpa came down from AK to TN for a conference. After he was done with the conference, he spent two nights with us and then went back home. My grandpa is the BEST guitar player in the world. He taught us a lot of stuff on the piano, Paulie's new guitar-bass and the guitar. (Paulie bought a bass a couple days ago and Grandpa showed him how to do some stuff on it). Here are some pictures: Here we are taking Grandpa up to the Smoky Mountains! :) Grandpa and the kids! And here are some pictures of Paulie's new Bass! Isn't it so cool looking!?! I love the color of it too!  Here is another picture of it. He is having a lot of fun with it! And to end this entry, I have a couple cute pic's of San! Awwww! She is so cute! Alright, that's it for now, I'm going to bed! http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/552786/ Sat, 28 Jun 2008 23:06:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/552786/ Ok, I'm sorry to keep (the few people that check my blog every now and then) you all waiting for a new update. Let's see, we are going to be so busy through out the months of June and July. We are having TONS of people staying over at our house through the month of June. We are leaving in 'mid July to going to CA! I don't think we will be coming back 'till early Augest! It is going to be SO much fun! We are going to get to see our friends and family again! A couple days ago we had Mrs. B over from England! She brought chocolate and it was SO good. England chocolate is WAY better than American chocolate. She came to the USA  because she was going to speak at a conference. They don't really have any conferences in England. We had a great time with Mrs. B! Tomorrow, we have more people coming to stay with us. I forget their last name though. Guess What?!?!?!?! When we went to the conference I saw a piano software that people were selling. Mom said that we didn't have the money for it. But the lady said that if I wrote a review for it and we put it in the magazine, then she would give me the software! She is suppose to get back with us soon. I can't wait! Ok, well, I just wanted to let all you guys know that I wasn't dead. ;) http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/546452/ Thu, 12 Jun 2008 00:08:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/LeviSuarez/546452/ Today is Jocelyn's Birthday! She is turning 17 today! Jocelyn is one of my best friends! She has helped me a lot. Such as, making me a whole new template and making me a banner! She is really smart with all that kind of stuff. If you want a banner or something like that, just ask JOCELYN! It's too bad we couldn't make it up there for your Birthday. I'm sorry I didn't put a party on for you like everyone else did. We are so busy lately. Well anyway, I hope you have a great birthday and you see a lot of people. Thank you, Jocelyn, for being a great friend! Please go over to Jocelyn's blog and wish her a very happy Birthday.
