Kirsten - The completion of the "Lord of the Rings" Trilogy

Yesterday I completed my list and then I went and worked on my homework.

When Jacob got home he took a long time trying to get his list done. Once his list was finally done, he helped me with dinner. We made spagetti and meatballs. The meatballs were a little weird. Oh well.

Then I watched "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King." we finally finished the trilogy. Hurray! After that Dad and Jennifer went for a drive while I watched the dogs and fed them dinner.

Jennifer/Mom - The Lord of the Exhausting Rings

Tonight we just finished the Lord of the Rings trillogy. I agree with Chris. By the end of the last movie I just wanted him to get on the Blankety-blank boat.

Jacob - Take me to the camp

Dad, can you take me to the camp on Friday? Can you? (Yes.)

Oh well.

Kirsten - Homework and Boy Scouts

Yesterday, I completed my list and then worked on my homework. I had a lot of time to work on my math homework because I had to take Jacob, Ben and Matt to boy scouts and stay there with them during the meeting.

When we got home, I watched "Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" with Dad and Jennifer. I got tired really quickly though.

Kirsten - 7-8-08 - Cici's Pizza and "Lord of the Rings"

Yesterday, after I completed my list I waited around for everyone else to be done and then we went to Cici's Pizza. I ate a whole bunch of the macaroni and cheese pizza. I really like that stuff.

Later I watched "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" (the extended version) with Dad and Jennifer. I had ice cream while watching.

Other than that I really didn't do much because I slept in. I did find out that I passed my IB Exams though. That was a huge relief.

Ben - 7-8-08

I woke up. I didn't want to work so I played with Matt. Soon, I decided to eat so I hurried through my list. We changed jobs so I had to clean the kitchen.

I wrote my blog while I ate breakfast. Matt wasn't doing anything so I read. Soon Matt decided to finish. Afterwards we went to Cici's.

After Cici's we went home. Dad soon came back. We watched the end of the Bee Movie. then we went to bed.

The End.

Kirsten - 7-4-08 - At the fountain with Andrew

Yesterday we spent the day with andrew. It's really still surprising that he and my mom actually came out. I was extremely shocked.

Yesterday Andrew spent a lot of time playing with his toy train, puppets and with the roller coaster thing. He seemed to have a good time. After everyone played for a little while we went to the fountain. There all the boys played in the water for a little while and then we went back home. When we got home Dad and Andrew left for their meeting.

For dinner we had really long sub sandwiches that Jacob and I put together. It was pretty great!

Ben - 7-4-08 - Andrew is here!

I woke up with excitement! Andrew was here! Soon Dad and Jennifer woke up. We had a family meeting. After the meeting, we finished our modified lists.

After our lists we ate breakfast. We cleaned the kitchen and started playing with the toys. Soon we went over and played at the fountain.

Back home we played some more. I went to the store with Dad and Andrew. We got dinner foods and went home. We made dinner then we showered. I showed Andrew how to play chess, then we went to bed.

The End

Kirsten - 7-2-08 - Cookies and Boy Scouts

Yesterday I woke up and I did my work. Ben was the next one done with his list. Matt and Jacob had a hard time doing their lists. After I talked with Matt he put himself in gear. Jacob didn't get back on track no matter what I did.

Eventually Jacob just went to bed. Meanwhile I took Matt and Ben to the store and we got frosting so we could make sugar cookies.

When we got home we made lots of sugar cookies. then we had Chicken Sloppy Joe's for dinner.

After dinner, I took Jacob, Ben and Matt to boy scouts. I stayed the whole time to help. After scouts I used the money Dad and Jennifer gave me to take my brothers to Dairy Queen.

Ben - 7-2-08 - July 2

Kirsten - 6-29-08 - A Mess Around Day

Yesterday was a pretty slow day. Everyone took a while to get dressed and get their lists done. Because of that we couldn't go to Country Buffet. But maybe some other time.

Donald also decided to eat some chicken bones left over from some fried chicken. At first we thought it was Daisy (she can be a little piggy). It was evident that Donald was the one at fault. he threw up chicken bones last night. Thankfully, he is okay.

Last night my brothers were also turkies after Dad and Jennifer went out. Actually, it was just Ben. He certainly was a stinker.

John-Michael's - 6-28-08 - Party Tiiime

I woke up. Then I did my list. Next I ate breakfast. After that, Matt, Ben, and I went to the park. When we got back Chris made an offer that we could have $1.00 if we weeded for 15 min. and we took the offer. Then D. came over and it was party time. So we went to the store and bought party food. Wen we got back we.......

Kirsten - 6-28-08 - We had Visitors!

...and I don't mean space aliens!

Yesterday, I woke up early so I could take care of my neighbors two boys. I arrived at their house at 7:40, way before the boys woke up. As soon as they were awake, we went to my house to have a party.

A situation with the cabin came up that wore my Dad out and prevented my Dad from participating in the party. I was upset because the situation didn't have to happen if there would have been some consideration and planning by other people. I really wanted to spend the day with my Dad.

That was really it. We had a nice visit from our neighbors though and a fun party.

Ben - 6-27-08 - Double Park Day

Yesterday I got up and finished my list. Afterwards we played at the park. We made this cool spaceship game.

We came back and ate pizza for lunch. We watched TV for a while. Soon Dad and Jennifer came home. Then we read on our beds.

After resting we played with the legos. Soon we were fighting. So we were sent to the park to calm down. Back home we ate dinner, watched TV and went to bed.
