Jacob - Breakfast

I had for breakfast eggs, bacon, and food salad.

There you go.

Ben - I went to the store.

Yesterday I got up, took a shower, made my bed, got dressed and had breakfast. Then I threw a temper tantrum. Then swept and mopped the kitchen. Then I worked on my school work.

Then I went to the store with Jennifer. Then I went back home and then I watched a movie. Then we did some other stuff. Then I ate dinner and went to bed.

John-Michael - Super Target, Super Target, Super Target, Target, Target

Let's see...I went to Super Target in the middle of my school work. When I got back I did the 2nd period of my school work. Then I had dinner. Bologna Sandwiches.

That was my day.

Matt - Super Target

Yesterday I woke up. I saw Kirsten telling John-Michael...I mean I heard Kirsten tell John-Michael to get in the shower. Next it was Jacob, then me, then Ben. I did my school-work. But in the middle of my school we went to Super Target.

That was my day.

Ben - A week of wilderness fun.

On Sunday I went to the church at eleven-thirty. We got our stuff in the car and went to Peaceful Valley. Then I messed around until I went to bed.

On Monday morning I had breakfast. Then I went to Eagle-Bound I and learned about orienteering. Then I did orienteering again for Eagle-Bound II. Then I went to the lake with my swimming trunks on and learned the rules of the lake so I could get my canoeing merit badge. Then I did a swimming test to see how good a swimmer I was and passed it entirely. Then I messed around and went to bed.

Then on Tuesday I learned, in Eagle-Bound I, first aid and for Eagle-Bound II I won first place for an orienteering test. Then I did a canoeing lesson and there were these boys in a sailboat who were teasing the canoers, so one of the staff members said all the canoers could splash them. Then I messed around. It hailed really hard, then I went to bed.

To be continued....

Matt - Board Games

Yesterday I did my list and then I played. Next we played some board games for about two hours. Maybe half...maybe an hour and a half. Then next I went to bed.

John-Michael - The "toothless wonder" became even more toothless!

I went to J. W.'s house yesterday and I had a play day yesterday. I didn't get to do water balloons but I still had a fun time. My tooth was loose and I accidentally bumped it on something and it popped out.

I played chess with my mom with coordinates over the phone. I had a pirates of the Caribbean chess board. She had a regular board. We had to end in the middle so we will have to finished the game later.

That was my day.

John-Michael - A day with Mrs. H

I had a fun time yesterday. Mrs. H. watched me while my dad went to work. I watched a few TV shows and then I watched a video tape. After I watched a video tape I went to bed.

With Mrs. H. I had a snack and played at the center Then I played baseball then I played on the swings. The H's have an automatic pitcher in their backyard.

Jennifer/Mom - A point from a friend

A friend of mine recently made the point that eveyone posts but me and asked why? I responded that I post almost everyone else's posts so it seems like I post all the time. I agreed though that I probably needed to post some more.

Of course, as I said back when I was posting more often, I get intimidated by Chris' posts and then my self-consciousness kicks in and....well...."that's all she wrote"....quite literally!

Ok, so back to me posting about me. I got some board games and card games the other day and I have been playing them with "the boys" (including Chris). Racko is a fun one and Rummikub is one of my favorites. Soon I will break out the "Skip-Bo" cards and then next will probably be to teach Ben and Kirsten how to play Rook. I think they would like pinochle also. We'll see.

We also need to get back to doing "Chicken Fat" and the other line dancing songs we have each day. We had a good time when we were doing them every day. It was fun! "Go you chicken fat gooooooooooooo!"

I also read a science fiction book recently but I can't tell you anything about it because I'm not supposed to spoil it for Chris who hasn't read it in a LONG time. I liked it though. Maybe I'll pick up a Tom Clancy book next. There are a few of those around.

Ok, so there is a post from me. The next few posts will be catching up and then we will have the "regularly scheduled" posts for today.

Enjoy!

Dad - It's broke

It seems like everything has broken recently.

The wind blew a section of fence down that had rotted because the post's concrete was pored too low. Then the electric car had two batteries go bad. Then my computer's video cards died, followed by the motherboard. I bet the motherboard killed the video cards.

And the fan died on the furnace/air conditioner or rather it burned up. When I was checking it out I wired up one of the lower speeds and FLAMES shot out of the motor which was a pretty good indicator that the motor had gone bad.

We put a new post in and poured new concrete around it. I went through the electric car's batteries and found the bad ones and replaced them. It's back to its speedy little self.

After getting three new video cards (I use 4-6 monitors) and an overnight delivery of a brand spanking new motherboard my computer has been successfully resurrected.

Then Ben and I went to the heating/air conditioning supply store and bought a new motor. Jennifer helped me install it and we have air conditioning again. YEA!

So now it's time to fix the backyard's sprinklers and finish the tile in the bathroom.

There seems to be a pattern here.

John-Michael - Legos and Movies

Yesterday I had a fun time. I wrote a blog about church. I made a few scanners out of paper and I turned the table basically into a play arena of Legos.

I played with my dad a whole lot and we watched a lot of movies too. We also went down to the office to see if there were any packages. I went to sleep after we checked for the packages.

Matt - Mexican Food

Yesterday I woke up and went back to sleep. Then I woke up and started on the family room. I did not do very well because I was tired.

Next Jacob had finished his list then he went on Paper Mario. He was going to the Shadow Queen. Next he had to go off because he needed to do his school work. I still couldn't finish my work because I didn't want to I guess.

Then I decided to do it and I started getting going and then Jacob put another load on the couch. I thought I had a LOT do do then because it looked like more. Part of it was because it was on a different couch than usual. I was getting even closer to done but then it was time to go to dinner. We went to a Mexican restaurant. I ate a chicken and been burrito with mild sauce but didn't taste mild to me. I am so glad I didn't get the hot sauce.

Then we went home. I had only finished a little more than a third of my burrito. Kirsten hadn't had dinner so I gave the rest to her. We went home and I finished my work. Next I watched some of "The Muppet Show"

Kirsten - Sunday the great

Curse you John-Michael title stealer....I was going to choose "Sunday" as my title but you had already taken it.

Yesterday I did not go to church but I went to work and there I worked.

The End

John-Michael - Sunday

Yesterday was fun. I had some strawberry mango juice. I watched a lot of TV. And I played with my toys. I played with my castle. I played with my dragons.

I went to church at the beginning of the day and it very fun. I went to SS I went to primary and I went to Sacrament meeting and that was it.

And that was my day.

John-Michael - Saturday

I watched “Escape to witch mountain” yesterday. I had a fun time yesterday with my dad in San Diego. I played with Battle Storm castle a whole bunch and its dragons too. I watched Battle Star Galactica, the old one. I had some hot chocolate and some orange juice.

Dad got a new TV yesterday, so there can be a new TV in every room. Now there are two TVs in the living room, and a TV in each bedroom.

And that was my day.

John-Michael - Yesterday was a day with Mom (most of the day and then I went on a plane)

I came in at the airport when it wasn't quite dark. I built the first tower of my new Lego castle. It had a bow and arrow and a catapult and three dragons. The dragons names were Rinethor, Groscorn, and Skullrattle. Skullrattle was the big one and Rinethor and Groscorn were the small ones. Groscorn is green and Rinethor is purple. Skullrattle is a red dragon with white teeth and has a plasma chrystal on his gold chest plate, he has orange spikes on his back and his arms are actually his wings. He has a long tail and the bottom of him is grey. Groscorn has a long arch shaped knife on his head and then he has yellow nails and a long green tail. Rinthor is a purple dragon with three green spikes on the top of his head a long piece of bone that is covered in purple skin and then a green piece of skin hangs down from the tip of his bone to the bottom of his foot.

Kirsten - The 4th of July and the day after

Yesterday was the 5th of July. The day before though (the 4th of July) was pretty intense. We went and saw Grandma and Grandpa up at the cabin. We also had a bar-b-que. (We had steaks...hooray!) then we went and saw some fireworks. They were really good this year.

Yesterday I woke up extremely tired and slept-in until 9:30 - 10:00 a.m. then the day was pretty much ordinary.

Matt - My title...let's see...YESTERDAY...or known as the day after the 4th of July or the 5th of July

"I didn't take a shower." I was just reading it. Sorry.

Jacob - I didn't take a shower

I woke up and I didn't take a shower. That's it.

Ben - The day after the 4th of July

I got up and kind of did my list but also screwed around. I forgot what happened yesterday so I'm going to say we did some stuff and went to bed.
