Kirsten - Yesterday was exciting

I got Jacob up for school. Then I had John-Michael, Ben and Matt do their lists. Then I went out to lunch with my boyfriend. We also saw "1408". which was an okay movie, but it would have been better if the character development were improved and if the plot organization were better. But still, "1408" was all right.

John-Michael - I had a fun day

It was a fun day. I had a really fin time yesterday. I woke up and started doing my list.

Ben - Sunglasses Day

Andrew sporting Dad's shades.






Yesterday I got up and did my list. Then I messed around in the kitchen until I made lunch after Jacob got home. Then I played around on the Wii with Jacob, played a little Warcraft, watched a movie, ate dinner and went to bed.

The End

Jacob - I went

I went to school and I went to home and that's all I went.

Matt - *stares blankly*

*stares blankly*

John-Michael - Here we go, ready or not here I come!

Okay, yesterday was the funnest day of my life. To be more precise the funnest day of my entire life. To be even more precise it was the funnest day in the world. I was just about to say..."To be even more precice..."

I'm thinking...Okay, not that fun. I don't really remember what I said yesterday. But I remember I did my blog.

Ben - National Choco-late Pudding Day-O (yummy, yummy in my tummy, tummy)

My day started with a balloon. Yesterday I got up and did my my list until around twelve, maybe even uh, three o'clock. then I worked on the kitchen some more, made chocolate pudding, had dinner. Then I had chocolate pudding and went to bed.

The End

Kirsten - The Most Magnificent Blog (with a sidedish of allitertration...hehe)

Oh, man, sorry about the title. I am most definately wierd....

Well, yesterday was Chocolate Pudding Day. Hehe...the reason we had chocolate pudding. We also made root beer...food of the gods. Anyway I don't really know what else to say....it was a day.

Oh! I also watched "Little Shop of Horrors" last night. Fun, fun. No actually, that movie is pretty funny. Yesterday I also talked to my boyfriend (or as Dad would say "Honey-bunny"...geez louise...lol)

But, just FYI, yesterday Terrific Tuesday. Yes indeed. Well, have fun. If you're reading this, you must be bored out of your mind and you must not have any life at all. Just some words of encouragement. :) lol

Love,
Kirsten

P.S. Watch out for poisonous plants, I saw the scars from the attack one had on my boyfriend. lol

Jennifer/Mom - A day behind again

Once again I got the posts but didn't get them posted yesterday. So, today there will be more than one post per person. The first set are the posts written yesterday and the second set are the posts written today.

Enjoy!

Kirsten - National Pink Day

Well yesterday was actually Log Cabin Day, but we did not celebrate this. We just watched "Night at the Museum" in celebration of Visit a Museum Day which was Sunday. Therefore today in my blog I will talk about Saturday (because we forgot to do that blog). Saturday was National Pink Day. Of course I wore pink in celebration. If I had pink pants I would have worn them as well (I'm amazed that I don't have any pink pants. :-P)

Jennifer (who also wore pink), John-Michael and I went to the store to get strawberries to make strawberry smoothies. Jennifer made the strawberry smoothies, they were pretty great. Then we watched cartoons of the Pink Panther. It was intense.

I did some exciting things yesterday. Besides watch most of "Night at the Museum", I called my boyfriend.

Jacob- Movie

I woke up. I went to schoo. After school I had a lunch until we're going to watch a movie, "Night at the Museum". And that's it.

John-Michael - I had a fun day

I had a fun day. It was a fun day. It was a fun day Saturday too and saturday was National Pink Day. National Pink Day! We watched Pink Panther cartoons and we had strawberry smoothies. And that was Saturday and I had a fun day and the end of my poem. Wait....my story.

Matt - I don't have anything to write

I don't know what we did yesterday.

Kirsten - At Church

Yesterday we went to church. Then I went to work. At work I had to fix a little girl's fishing pole. It was one of those stupid toy things. She broke it therefore I got to take the it apart and fix it. Then Dad picked me up and took me to Grandma's house.

Matt - Church

I woke up the next morning. I wanted to get back to sleep. I got back to sleep for a little while then John woke me up. the reason John wants to wake me up is to play. I tell him sleep is better than play.

Next, i took a shower. Me and John-Michael had fun in the morning. Then we went to church. At church people spoke in the speaker, on the microphone. Next when everyone was done we went home.

Jacob - I went to church

I went to church and then we went home. Later we went to Grandma's house and then I went to home.

John-Michael - The Short Blog

I woke up and I went to Grandma's and we had a fun time at Grandma's. I played a bunch of stuff and that was my day.

Jacob – A good day

I got up in the morning I did the list and then I ate breakfast. We went to store; I had little hamburgers for lunch. I came home and played on the Wii.

Ben – Canoe trip

Well Dad woke me up really early in the morning on Friday, we had a quick breakfast and went to the church where I helped pack for the trip.

Then we went to Wyoming and got ready to go canoeing. We started down the river for a while and every now and then I’d take a picture of something. Around 4pm we landed for camp 14.5 miles down the Platte River.

I helped set up my tent then I helped make dinner. We had a dinner of hamburgers and a desert of cookies and then we went to bed.

On Saturday, early in the morning, we broke camp and left for another 20 mile run. We visited a cliff that had a cemetery on it. And I took a few pictures up there. I also took 2 pictures of an American bald eagle that day. Then we setup camp after the 20 miles. I helped setup my tent again and carried all my stuff up the cliff. Then we had dinner and then we went to bed. In the morning we broke camp and then we headed down the Platt for the rest of the way, once we reached the golf course we got out the canoes and packed up all of our stuff to go back home to Colorado. I played a little in the car until we got back to the church then I helped unpack and help everyone go home. Then Jennifer picked me up and took me to grandma’s house.

Jennifer/Mom - National Chocolate Eclair Day

Yesterday was National Chocolate Eclair Day. After they got their morning stuff done I took the boys to go get the eclairs from the store. After that the boys played in the afternoon and had a good time. The eclairs went with dinner. Some were not as impressed with the eclairs as others.

Today is National Pink Day. We'll see what everyone has to say about that tomorrow.

Jacob - plain day

I went to school. I went to back home and I went to bed and that's it.

John-Michael - Bock, Bock

I woke up in the morning and got woken up in the middle of my sleep because I didn't do my blog, it's name was Ice Cream Soda Day!

I had turkey and chicken sandwiches (bock, bock, bock). Bock bock....hahaha.

I had a very fun day cleaning up my room and I watched a new movie...and it was a good movie. I got to run around in the giant yard (wait, that was the night when we had the root beer floats) Oh yeah, wait I want to say....."Ooooooooh yeah!"

Matt - Finally summer Day

Yesterday I woke up. Then I did my list. I don't remember most of it so I guess I'll just skip to dinner. At dinner we had chicken and turkey sandwiches. The turkey ran out first. It wasn't really out but most of it was gone. I mean, the chicken hardly got touched, everyone mostly ate the chicken, I mean turkey.

Then I went to bed.

The End.

Well, I'm getting The End so I guess I'll say "E" End. Well, I guess....Oh, well.

Kirsten - Well

My boyfriend got back from his trip yesterday.

Yesterday was also "Finally Summer Day". Some celebrated by eating chicken and turkey sandwiches. My brothers and John also had problems working on their jobs, so Dad and Jennifer had them get together to resolve the problem.

Ben - It was Ice Cream Soda Day

Yesterday I got up and did my list. Then I worked on my school work. Then I worked on my Biology project Kirsten gave me. Then we had dinner and had some root beer floats and watched a movie.

The End

Kirsten - Whatever

Yesterday we had root beer floats in celebration of Ice Cream soda Day. We also watched "Bridge to Terabitia" which happens to be based off the book I read in 3rd grade. It is a really good book. Pretty sad. The story is also based off a true story. I have to say the though, the trailers made the movie look like crap with a capital "C"!

Matt - Going with Dad to work

Well, my day started as me waking up. I woke up arond 6:48. I wanted to wake up at 6:00 a.m. because I wanted to get all my jobs done so I could come with dad to work. I did all my jobs. Next, I did my school work. When I finished my school that was due that day (that Kirsten had given me yesterday) I started on my next stuff which was math. Then next was going to leave for work.

I hadn't finished all of my math but I could do it while I was at Dad's work. Next I would finish all of my work at Dad's work, I had to read more of "The Trumpet of the Swan". Next we drove to Dad's work. Dad told me to get to work. I started work. When I was half way through Dad gave me some practice problems. Then I did the other half of the problems Kirsten had given to me.

Next, I started reading "The Trumpet of the Swan". It was time to go. We were in the car and I kept reading the rest of it. After about 10 or 5 minutes I had finished the rest of it. Then we went home.

Then we had some root beer floats. But before we had root beer floats we watched a movie, "Bridge to Terabithia" Next we went to bed.

The End

John-Michael - Ice Cream Soda Day.

I woke up in the morning. I had a good day. It was Ice Cream Soda Day. And at the end of the day I got a root beer float. Oh yes, I also had a reading paper that I did about El Nino. That's all I can remember.

Jennifer/Mom - World Sauntering Day

Yesterday was World Sauntering Day. So, in the evening we went out for a Saunter around the neighborhood. The kids got a kick out of it. We had a good time. Kirsten keeps forgetting to have the boys write down their posts. Hmmm....I can't decide whether to have them catch up or just pick up with tomorrow. I will decide tomorrow.

Dad - More film with Andrew

Here's the latest from our project:

Jacob - Sunday

There was no school yesterday, and then I went to sleep for tomorrow. That's all.

Matt - Grounded

Yesterday I woke up. Because I didn't do my school or my jobs I got grounded. And that was my day.

The End

John-Michael - Flying home

I woke up at my dad's house. I didn't know I was at my dad's house, just kidding! I flew on an airplane yesterday. I took a two-hour drive just to get to the airport, can you believe that ?!? I can because I was the one who experienced it. Well, I had a really fun time on the whole week. I had a hard time packing. It was a long plan trip. It was a nice fun time. That was basically it. Oh yes, and I had some trail mix and chocolate bars and i read "Captain Underpants".

Yep.

Jennifer/Mom - A day behind

Somehow we got to the end of the day and I didn't get the blogs written yesterday about what happened the day before entered in. Oh, well...life happens. So the next three are posts that should have been posted yesterday but got missed.

Kirsten - Interesting News

I learned yesterday that my boyfriend was "ambushed" by a poisonous plant out in the foreign country he's hanging out in. Other than that we didn't really do anything. Same-old, same-old.

Jennifer/Mom - Picked up John-Michael

Got back from picking up Chris and John-Michael. Couldn't sleep so I am now going to type in Kirsten's blog which was waiting for me when I got back.

Ben - I forgot again

I forgot again.

John-Michael - The nearly forgotten day

I got up in the morning and then I had oatmeal for breakfast.

I got a sub skate from Target and I have a fish that actually swims. I got them from Target. I went to the bookstore to get a pirate book. I came back to my dad's and looked at the pirate book. Then I watched a movie. And then I went to bed.

Trust me it was longer.

Matt - Not back to sleep

Yesterday I had woken up. I had wanted to go back to sleep but I wasn't able to. Then I did my jobs. Next I did my school work. That was it. I didn't tell much because there wasn't much to tell.

The End

Jacob - Before that

I went to blog and that's all!

John-Michael - A whole enchilada with a side of fun.

Yesterday Anthony came over and then we went down to swim and I taught him. I taught him that little trick my mom taught me about practicing kicking off the side of the pool. Then I had a fun, fun time. Then I went back up to my dad's.

We watched Eragon last night. My dad says he didn't even know he had it. And that was pretty much my day.

Ben - Movie Day

Yesterday I got up and did my list. And I started the dishwasher because I had forgotten to start it the night before. Then we watched movies all day and I cleaned up the kitchen a little bit more after dinner. Then I went to bed.

The End

Matt - The many movie day

First I woke up. I unloaded the dishwasher first because Ben (or maybe Jacob) was in the shower. The dishwasher had dirty dishes in it so I didn't unload it. Kirsten told me to go to my room for a while because I wasn't doing my other jobs. Next Kirsten called me and told me to go in the shower. I had gotten distracted. Kirsten told me to go in the shower again and then I went in the shower.

Next I ate breakfast. Then did the rest of my jobs. Then we watched a bunch of movies. I'm not sure how many. When the movies were over, I was told to get in my pajamas and then Kirsten did my blog with me. My post I mean.

And then I went to bed and spent the next three hours NOT going to sleep. But after about one or two hours I wanted to.

The End

Kirsten - Smile Power Day

Yesterday was Smile Power Day. Yesterday I also woke up. Everyone decided they didn't want to do their work yesterday so they decided to do it on Saturday. So instead of school work everybody watched a lot of movies and that was it.

Jacob - Help me feel better

Yesterday I decided to go have school tomorrow at home. I had breakfast of eggs and rolls. I had a plan to watch a movie and then I watched a movie. When it was lunch time I had a pizza party for lunch. And then I played Wii. And then I helped feel better.

I had dinner. Egg-salad sandwich for dinner. Next time, John-Michael is back.

The End of our story....and don't miss our exciting adventure. "Help me feel better II: John-Michael returns to Colorado"

Matt - "Meet the Robinsons"

What was yesterday about? I'm thinking about what happened yesterday. I just can't remember yesterday. I can't I just can't remember what happened yesterday. I don't know where to begin. I can't remember the morning yesterday so I guess I'll skip.

Next we went to a movie called "Meet the Robinsons" When the movie was over we went home and that was it.

Kirsten - A postcard

Yesterday I received a post card from my boyfriend (because you know he isn't in the country at this time...) He said he would call me but long-distance is $5 a minute. My dad of course teased me about my boyfriend and called him a "honey bunny". Geez Louise.

We also went to see "Meet the Robinsons". Which was actually (surprisingly) a really cute movie. It probably could have done without the dinosaur though. :-P

XOXO

P.S. John-Michael! I have a message for you! "Hello John!" Just wonderin' how's it hangin'? I'm sure you're out on the WEST coast having some summer fun in the sun :)

P.P.S. Happy Pop Goes the Weasel Day!

Ben - The day I went to work with dad

Yesterday I got up and did my list. Then I asked my dad if I could go with him to work and he said sure as long as I worked on my school work there. Then I worked on my homework until I went home.

Then I went home and worked on my computer a little until I went with dad to someplace special. Then I came back. Then dad and I went back home again and we cleaned the house up a little bit more. Then we went to the movies and saw, "Meet the Robinsons". Then we went back home. Then we went to bed.

The End

Jacob - School Two

I went to school two. After middle school. I'm going to high school. When it was the last day of school, I said "Thank you for having fun". After middle school, I went to high school next year and then when their school is over next year I'll go to high school again.

Dad - Some Pictures that were in the camera

I was doing some digital housecleaning today and found a few pictures:

I chose the Restaurant

Waiting for a movie

Talking to boyfriend Honey Bunny in Bolivia while waiting for a movie

It's "Smile Power Day"!

Andrew getting ready for bed

John-Michael - "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"

I got up in the morning. At the very end of the day I watched a movie called "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". The old version the one where they have the orange faces and the green hair and the striped suits and Baruca looses her mind in the Egg place.

I had oatmeal for breakfast. Then I went downstairs to level 1 for Sister Beesley to pick me up. Then I had a really fun rest of the day. We went to Sister Beesley's house. Their cousin was there. He is staying with them. I played the paint game where you just paint and paint and paint on the computer. Then I said good bye and I went to my dad's work and I played and played and played and then I went back to my dad's.

Then I waited. I was waiting for a friend to come over to swim but he never did. So, when it was dark we watched "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" which I mentioned all the way at the top of the blog.

Before I watched the movie though I went to the bookstore. Then I came back to have a rest and play Pirates of the Caribbean chess.

Ben - Pizza for dinner

Yesterday, I got up and did my list. Then I did my summer schoolwork. Then we watched the movie "Robin Hood". Then we had pizza for dinner and I finished cleaning the kitchen. Then I played on Warcraft until I went to bed.

The End

Matt - Lunch was tuna fish sandwiches

Well, I did my jobs, after I woke up and took my shower. Next what I did....was I did my schoolwork. When I had finished my schoolwork, I had to wait for Jacob's bus. This summer school bus that is, that drops him off at our house. When the bus came, I told Kirsten it was here, and then he came inside. Then we had lunch.

Lunch was tuna fish sandwiches and peanut butter sandwiches. Next, Kirsten told me to do some jobs. When I finished those jobs, I asked Kirsten if I could ask "D." if I could play with him, she said "yes". When I came back to the house, I told Kirsten he said, "no", and I walked around the house boredly. Next, I had asked Dad if I could play Wii. I played "Super-Monkey-Ball-Blitz" for a while.

Then, I asked Dad if I could have the keys to the basement door (which was locked) because the Nunchuck was down there. Then I played "The Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess". then it was time for bed, and that was my day.

The End

Jacob - Good night Jacob

Yesterday I got up and went to shower and get dressed. Now I'm ready for school. After school I have a lunch. And then I finished the list and I ate dinner. I had pizza for dinner. Then I went to bed.

Kirsten - I don't want to do my blog I'm a grouch...

Ummmm...Yesterday was sewing machine day wasn't it? Oh, yeah and National Juggling day.

Nothing out of the ordinary happened it was all the same as usual.

Oh yeah, I made little pizzas last night. They were mini pizzas.

That's all.

John-Michael - Helicopter

I called my mom really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really really, early. Then I got picked up by Sister Williams. I went to a play day for the people of the church, for the kids in the church. Then I went and picked up Morgan which was at school and then I went back to have lunch. Then...I came back and then I went outside to play at their house with my chalk and my bug vacuum. I caught a real live ant! My grandma gave me a bug vacuum. My grandmother Christensen gave me the bug vacuum.

Then I came back to my dad's house and it was late. I did a rest and then I went swimming in the afternoon. Then that was my day. I went back to dad's house then I had a fun bath, then I went to bed.

Oh, in the middle of swimming I saw a helicopter. That's why this blog is call "Helicopter".

Kirsten - Machine Day

Yesterday was Machine Day. So...."Happy Machine Day!"

Jennifer likes "Merry Machine Day" better but I like "Happy Machine Day" best. It's like "Happy Christmas". I don't think we did anything out-of-the ordinary...so...yeah...peace.

Ben - I forgot

I forgot what happened yesterday. So, I'm just going to say I did my list and my school work.

The End.

Matt - Yestersay (which was Machine day)

Yesterday was machine day. We didn't really do Machine Day but we surely did use them. Ha-ha-ha-ha.

The End

That's it.

Now it's really the end.

Okay.

The End.

But not the end of our blog.

Jacob - Blah

I went to school. I got on the bus and I got off the bus. I went for a walk and then I talked so I felt better. But have to get wrong class on the first day of school. That's it! Good-bye.

John-Michael - Machine Day

Yesterday I forgot to celebrate Machine Day but I might do it today. I'm still visiting my dad. I also got to see Mrs. Hill yesterday. I had fun with her and Zach Hill. When I picked up Zach from school, I had a turn on the swing and another little girls mother was walking away from her. I heard a little girl saying "Mommy, Mommy!" so I ran up the the mom and told her that her little girl was calling her. And then while we were walking back I saw another little girl right behind that one and asked her if she wanted to go on the swing and she said, "Yes" and so I walked away from the swing.

I got back and it was kind of dark. I asked my dad if we could please go down to the pool and he said "Yes" because I hadn't gone down to the pool yet that day. So, I went to the pool and I got boiled, frozen, boiled, frozen, boiled, frozen, boiled, frozen, because the pool was like a big deep freeze and the hot tub was like a pot of boiling water.

After that I watched some "School House Rock" and then I went to bed.

John-Michael - King Kameahmea Day

I woke up in San Diego. I did stuff all day with my dad. I drew pictures of Hawaii. I had hug time. I think I got a rake. A rainbow chalk rake. It's very cool. It can draw with 5 colors at once. And I got a car. I think it is a black Hummer truck. A remote controlled black Hummer truck. That was fun to play with it.

I went to the pool right when I got back from the store. I had gotten a new swimming suit. I found a new dragon ball inside of my swimming suit. It was for my special nets that were for the pool.

I went swimming in the afternoon and that was my day.

Matt - My not so good day...

Well, first I woke up. Next, I did my jobs. Then I did my school-work. Jacob got to play Wii because he finished all of his work first. I was in trouble. I wasn't allowed to play on the Wii. I was in trouble because I wouldn't do my work.

Kirsten - "Peanut Butter Jelly Time"

Yesterday nothing much happened. Ben and Matt got in trouble for not doing their work...again. There is something I've been thinking about recently. That would be Peanut Butter and Jelly.

I was very odd as a child. I didn't like macaroni and cheese and I absolutely despised peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. For some reason, I absolutely love them!!! Which reminds me of my favorite song "Peanut Butter Jelly Time".

Ben - King Kameahmea Day

Yesterday I got up and did my list. I forgot what happened yesterday. So, I'm done.

Jacob - Yesterday was Monday

Jennifer told me that yesterday was Monday, now here is today! So, I almost went to Grandma's house yesterday because I want my water bottle back. I forgot it at Grandma's on Sunday.

That's all I can tell you.

Dad - Driving

I rented a really cool car today, and the best part was that it was FREE!!!!

Even better yet I got to see Andrew for a few moments!

Jacob - Yo-Yo Day

Yesterday was National Yo-Yo Day. On yesterday I took a shower and I bumped my head. At bedtime I went to go to sleep. We went to Grandma's house.

Ben - Celebrating National Yo-Yo Day

Yesterday I got up and did my list. Then, dad and I ordered some pizza and we went and bought some Yo-Yos for National Yo-Yo Day. Then we came and we had some lunch, which was the pizza of course. Then we went to Grandma's house and played there until we went home. Then I went to bed.

The End

Matt - I forgot

Okay...I forgot.

The End

Kirsten - National Yo-Yo Day

Yesterday was National Yo-Yo Day. It was also Sunday.

I helped John-Micheal pack his clothes. I remember exactly what he packed. I'm going to miss that John-Micheal. If you're reading this I just want to say, "Hiya John-Michael! How's the East coast treatin' ya?"

I also went to work yesterday. That was fun. I actually like going to work.

PS: Oh! John-Michael if you're still reading this (assuming you ever began to) I know you're not on the East coast. Just testing you! Better keep an eye-out I'm sneaky.

John-Michael - The Day of Yo-Yos

I learned how to Yo-Yo yesterday! And I actually....well....I had a fun time yesterday. An extremely fun time, 'cause I was going to my dad's...but that is not the subject now is it? But I was just mentioning it for fun.

So, back to yo-yos. I am pretty good at yo-yoing now. I know how to do a throw and a bounce back. They are pretty easy. But the long way's roll up is much harder. You put it on your middle finger and then you set the yo-yo a little bit away and then you start pulling it and it turns and turns. It's receiving the string and pulling on the string. It's kind like a mountain climber. He reaches up and grabs some and then reaches up and grabs another. And the yo-yo turns in and pulls on the string.

Kirsten - So Mad!

As the audience will most likely be able to tell from the previous posts, we came back from the cabin yesterday. After getting back from the cabin, I went to work. That of course, is not why I was upset.

As my siblings failed to describe, aside from cabin adventures, we went out to dinner. John-Michael chose the restaurant. We went to Country Buffet. No, that's still not why I was upset. My brother's also forgot to mention that we called my mom so we could talk to Andrew.

Let's just say that the conversation I had with my mother was very obnoxious. That's why I was mad. To be blunt, I was mad at my mother. Mom if your reading this, "Hi and now you know".

UGH!

Ben - Leaving the cabin....again

Yesterday I got up and played around with Matt and John-Michael until we asked Dad and Jennifer if we could watch a movie. After watching the movie we packed up to go 4-wheeling and then home.

Once we were home we did some rest time and I cleaned the kitchen and read a little until I went to the Boy Scout garage sale. After I was done working at the garage sale, I went home and then had dinner. After dinner I cleaned the kitchen. I went onto World of Warcraft. After playing on Warcraft I went to bed.

The End

Matt - 4-wheel drive on the mountains

The next day I woke up. Then everyone else woke up. After that, we started getting ready to go. When we were finished we started going up the mountain. While we were up in the mountain there were lots of spots that were pretty scary. Finally we got back down Dad found a sign that said, "No motor vehicles" flattened into the ground. It was alright though because everyone brings up motor vehicles.

Then we were on our way home. Right when we went home, we did some rest time. I don't remember so, the end.

Jacob - Post cabin...

I woke up at the cabin. We got ready to go. We went home. after we got home we have a Sunday ice cream, and then at bedtime I went to sleep.

John-Michael - Leaving the Cabin

I had a really fun day yesterday. We went EXTREME 4-wheeling. I was really scared even afterwards I was scared of going 4-wheeling ever again.

When we got home we got ice cream Sundays! Then I did rest time. Then Kirsten dictated my blog.

Then we went to Country Buffet. Because it was my last day I got to choose where we went. It was my last day before visiting my dad in San Diego, which is WAY far away. It was a very special day and that was it.

Kirsten - "Arthur and the Invisibles"

Yesterday, we packed up the necessary equipment in order to go to the cabin. We brought a lot of food with us.

We stayed the night and watched an incredibly ridiculous movie called "Arthur and the Invisibles". Besides having strange animation the story was over-all highly cliche and had an extremely absurd plot. The movie discussed African tribes and Yin and Yang. It was very strange. Indeed....very strange. Indubitably.

XOXO

John-Michael - Cabin Poetry

I went to the cabin
Then watched a good movie.
Then went right to bed in a very nice bed.
I went right to sleep,
And woke in the morning,
To get my clothes on,
And have a good day.

The End

Matt - A triping up to the cabin

I woke up the next morning, then I took my shower. I did my jobs. After that, I did my work. Next, after school, I was told to get ready to go to the cabin. At the cabin I saw Ben try to get the TV connected to the Atari. The Atari works fine, but not the TV. Then I saw Kirsten was playing the game scrabble. She asked me if I wanted to play, I said, "NO!" Then we watched a movie. After that I went to bed. The End. Of my post to the blog.

Jacob - Cabin

I went to cabin, and I watch a "Arthur and the Invisibles". And then I went to bed.

That's all!

Ben - The first day of the Boy Scout Yard Sale

Yesterday I got up and read a little and then got in trouble for not going my work. Then I went and did my list, then I went off to help my fellow boy-scouts with the garage sale to earn money for the camping trip. After that, it was 6:00, so I went home.

Then we went up to our cabin and spent the night there watching a movie and then going to bed.

The End

Jennifer/Mom - Yesterday's posts posted today.

The three posts below this are actually yesterday's posts. We got a couple done before we left for the cabin but couldn't get a connection to work up there so...they are being posted today.

I will post today's posts as they get finished.

Kirsten - Chocolate Ice Cream Day

Yesterday was Chocolate Ice Cream Day. Therefore, we had chocolate ice cream. I also took Ben and Matt to the library. Matt checked out a really good book by Louis Sacher entitled "There's a Boy in the Girl's Bathroom". We also started watching "Oliver". That was pretty much it though.

John-Michael - I had a fun day.

Yesterday I did a lot of work in the morning. I had a really fun day. Oh yeah, I learned the first part of how to type! I learned "a, s, d, f" and "j, k, l, ;" as well as the space key.

We had National Chocolate Ice Cream Day. I had homemade pizzas and watched "Oliver". And that was the end of my day.

Ben - National Chocolate Ice Cream Day

Yesterday I got up and did my list. I went to the library. After we finished with the library we went back home and read some books undtil I cleaned the kitchen. After cleaning the kitchen I had dinner, then I had some chocolate ice cream while watching a movie. Then I went to bed.

I'm done...the end.

Jacob - We did do a party.

I woke up and I did take a shower so at night I had a party. What I did during...at school I practiced. I practiced typing by having lessons.

I celebrated National Chocolate Ice Cream Day. And tomorrow it will be cabin night....we're on today!

And that's all!

Matt - "O-li-ver"

Well, first I woke up. Then I took my shower. After that I started doing my jobs. When I had finished my jobs, I started doing my school work. After that, we went to the library. At the library, we got some books. Ben has like 20 on his library card, I was quite surprised. Now he has like 30.

When we got back we watched a show called "Oliver". It was like 4 hours long but we only watched half. After that I went to bed and that was my day.

The End...not of "Oliver" though.

Jennifer/Mom - Found it!

We have had a really great time celebrating our holidays!

Here is the cartoon I was remembering when I first thought of the "iiinnnteresting monster".

Ben - Another day in trouble

Yesterday I got up and I kind of did my list. I was in the kitchen cleaning kind of and Matt and I started arguing so I got sent to my room with my school work. Then I worked on my school work...kind of. Then Kirsten brought up lunch and then after eating lunch I got back to work until Kirsten called me out of my room to clean the kitchen. After cleaning the kitchen properly, I went back to my room to work on my work.

Then I got out for dinner. Then I finished cleaning the dishes then I played on Wii because Kirsten and Jennifer left for the store and I didn't get to go. After a while of playing on Wii I had to stop playing because Matt kept sneaking out of bed and watching and also because it was late (almost 10:00).

The End

John-Michael - The played game

I made a game the day before yesterday and I played it yesterday. And it was a fun game. It was called "World Environment Day" to celebrate World Environment Day. World Environment Day was the day before yesterday but we didn't get a chance to play it that day.

That's all I can think of for my day and so.....The End

Kirsten - Yesterday had no overall theme so there is no title

Yesterday not too much happened. We were going to celebrate Applesauce Cake Day but we did not have an applesauce cake made yet, so Ben, Matt, Jacob, John-Michael and I played Wii instead. Once my brothers and John-Michael were in bed Jennifer and I left and bought ice cream.

The End....oh, also, our mom did not call us yesterday but we called her....several times.

The End. That Is All!

Yesterday was iiinnnteresting. The interesting yesterday was our first day of summer school. It also was the day we celebrated our first day of school on our first day of school. I did geography. I was slow because I had done a lot of math so it was hard for me to skip to that subject. When school was finished we started getting ready for our party. At our party the beginning of our party Dad started making some Root Beer by hand. We watched the movie "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets". When we got half-way through it was time for bed and I went to sleep.
