More Thanksgiving

Key: Red is me writing, Will is blue.

To tell you more about these fantastical creatures, here is guest writer, Will.

At scouts we made apple turkeys. The one on left belongs to Sarah. The one on the right is mine. We made them out of apples, gumdrops, and toothpicks. And marshmallows.

And now, here's an essay that Will wrote in school:

I'm thankful for animals. I think they are the best. I'm also thankful for my body. If I didn't have it I would be a pancake (?). I am grateful for my bike. If I didn't have it, I would have to walk everywhere. I am thankful for my school. If it weren't there, I would not know how to read. And I am so thankful for books. They take you on adventures.

Aaaaaaannnnnndddddd, we have the survey results!

My favorites are:

Turkey (white meat)

Mashed potatoes and gravy (yummy)

Chocolate cream pie

Homemade rolls

That's all I need to make my Thanksgiving great.

Oh, and thanks for the reminder that once again, I won't be having a yummy turkey dinner on Thanksgiving...;)

Oh, don't worry. We'll think about you.

Definately the yam/sweet potato thing with sugar and marshmallows on top. Gag!

I totally agree with the yams thing.

I love it all!! If their was one thing I HAD to choose it would be pumpkin pie.

Bring it on!

Uh-huh. I'm with you on that one, Lane.

Jen, one of my other aunts, said...

Favorite = Stuffing
Least Favorite = cranberry or Yams (just plain nasty)

To close, Will and Sarah both like turkey and both hate the peas and carrots. My friend Alexis likes pie and hates stuffing.

We're signing off for Thanksgiving. See you in December!

Yeeaahh. Sorry, guys, it's totally mom's fault. ;)

Anyway, we had ourselves a fun Halloween. Here are the pix:




Us, the night of.














As said, Jaceson went as Jason.











I was another fairy, Beck. To see what she looks like, click here.













But, as to seeing how I might be mocked like I was last year, for the school party, I was a Jedi Knight , Bultar Swan. (I'm the second one to the right). To see what she looks like, click here.

(Admit it; if my hair were black, I'd look just like her.)








Will was a frightening Skull ninja.













And Sarah was a Pretty Kitty.











See you in December when we have the Thanksgiving pictures.

" 'Cause it's a Thriiill-errr!"

Hello, family! Remember how I was talking about that Sixth Grade Halloween Program? And how I had some parts in it? Well, here's the rest of the story.



Here's me before the show. By the way, those other two people in the last post are my friends Kayelyn and Braedon.








Here's the opening number, Micheal Jackson's Thriller. All of us zombies were spread around the auditorium dancing.










The Pumpkin Skit: Starring Me as Pumpkin #11










I was also in the song Witches Brew.







HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Pumpkin Sacrifice

Last weekend, five pumpkins met an untimely death at our house.












Abby chose a white pumpkin, which was surprisingly normal on the inside.












Will did a werewolf, Abby did ghosts, Sarah did a cat. We're looking pretty spooky!
