Hey

Hey Everyone!  We had pizza for dinner tonight!  It was soooo good!  My mom made Marguerite Pizza,  it is pizza with tomatoes soaked in Olive oil, garlic, salt, and their own juice.  That is put on a crust with basil and cheese. It tastes awesome. 

Since we don't celebrate Halloween we are all sitting up in the family room watching Globe Treker. We get a few tricker treaters not many though. All our lights so nobody will stop by.  Have a great evening!

Connel Lake Hike

Hello Everyone!  I had an awesome day!  We went hiking with E and L up Connel Lake!  It was so much fun.  I am still waiting for L to send me pics as my camera is gone.  In the process of moving it got lost.  We didn't go all the way to the top though.  Then we drove back by Ward Lake and the trail was flooded like the camping spots were flooded to. Have a great day! :) I will post some pics soon!

Rain Rain Go AWAY

          It's raining again.  I thought our October weather was over!  Well it's not.  It is raining and blowing a storm out there.  I want winter to hurry up and get here so we can Ice Skate.

         We have also been getting ready for Sabbath.  Mom made chili for dinner.  Yummmmmm!  It sounds so good right now!  I have a sore back.  I did something to it a week or two ago.  If I bend over it hurts.  I am thinking a sore muscle or a pinched nerve.  I play the cello and it is on the side of my bowing arm.  That might have something to do with it.  I can't play my cello for very long or it starts to hurt.  I hope it heals up quick, Mom has been rubbing my back.  Thanks Mom!!! 

         Earlier today I had this idea to start something I now like to call "The Quote Book".  I found some really fabulous quotes, and I wanted to remember them.  I picked out a notepad that's purple and copied them in.  I really like the way it looks! 

Have a great evening!

Roller Skating!

          Today we went Roller Skating!  It was actually for my P.E. class, but my mom and sister came to.  There was a lot of moms and older siblings though.  I haven't skated in over one or two years.  At first it was a struggle to stay up, but then I got it.  It is kinda like bike riding you never forget how!

Busy Day Today and Tomorrow

          Wow!  Today was really busy!  Early this morning we picked up a friend from the airport and we wen out for hot chocolate.  Yummy!  I had peppermint in mine.  It reminded me of Christmas and Winter.  It is funny how some foods remind you of certain holidays.  Pumpkin bars are so Fall.  Peppermint Hot Chocolate is Winter.  Watermelon is Summer for sure.  Fresh strawberries for Spring. 

          I can't wait for a cold snap so we can go ice skating.  I love ice skating on a frozen pond with the snow on the green pine trees and the crisp fresh air.  It always reminds me of the wonderful creations our creator has made for us. 

         Sorry I kind of got of subject.  Anyways Thursdays are always busy we start out with voice in the morning and then Kendall teaches 4 violin lessons.  I also have P.E. in the afternoon.  Tomorrow we are roller skating.  Better go.  I need plenty of sleep!

          My mom, Kat, and I just finished a Pilate's video.  It was quite the workout.  I don't have much energy and it doesn't help that it is raining.  Plus the sky is overcast and gray...  Typical K*t**ik*n weather.

         We also made fresh bread! I love the smell of baking bread.  It seems so homey.  Anyways enough typing for now.  I have to go fold laundry.

Swimming

          Today we went swimming.  We have a homeschool group that goes every Monday.  We swim and we play games like tag, sharks and minnows, and Marco Polo.  Today we were seeing who could do the most somersaults,  my maximum is one.  Kendall, on the other hand, can do nine, one of my friends Noah can do ten. I like to swim but somersaults make me nervous.  Maybe one day I'll be able to do ten. (Maybe.)

What do you do on a nice day in october?

Go to the beach! Today we went to Settlers Cove beach.  With our pastors daughters.  It was so much fun! We walked on the beach for a ways and then we walked the loop back. I hope everyone Had a Great Day!!!

Hello

Hi Everyone!

Today was good weather!  Our power has been out about ten times.  The wind damaged a telephone pole and split it in half.  Two trees fell across the road and knocked some more power lines out.  Lucky for us my Grandpa B had a generator and fired it up and we had power!  It was cool since no one else had power.  We watched a movie and went to bed.

Have a Great Day

Hi Everyone,

How are you all?  I am sore!!!! We played indoor hockey at y P.E. Class.  I stepped on my ankle wrong and then I already have a bum knee so...  Anyway I am still on a diet.  My whole family is downstairs eating,  I am hungry, but I'm just trying to keep any extra weight off.  I hope everyone has a lovely day!

Erin, Kat, Me, and my Mom on a recent hike.

Tired Tired Tired

I am so tired today.  I don't know what it is.  We have been on the go.  Yesterday was really busy.  I got up at six to have time to shower and dress before my Science class at seven. Then I rushed downstairs and got all my school and music together for the day.  Next we all jumped in the car and headed to voice for an hour that was lots of fun.  After that we went to the church for Kat's violin lesson.  She has started teaching.  We ate lunch and did some school.  I have a P.E. at 1:30 so we went to the REC center and while I had class Kat and mom worked out in the weight room.  Today I am just dragging.  I am sorry there aren't any pics.  the camera doesn't have a cord so we have to take it to walmart to get the pictures on CDs.  Have a Great Day.

Writing Foundations :(

           At the start of school year, my sister and I started a writing program.  It is a online course...  I don't really care for online courses.  We have to highlight tons of different sentence starters, and it's very confusing sometimes.  Actually that is what I am supposed to be doing so I will get back to my outlining.
