Tropical Rainforest.
2. What is your favorite music CD right now?
Probably Give Me Jesus by Galkin Evangelistic Team

Depends on my mood, and the wildflowers...=P Probably roses, though...I don't know...that's a tough one.

Pictures of Thanksgiving

Yesterday, I promised y'all that I would post pictures, so I'll post the few that I got.

First, I took pics of what everybody was doing. I got one of Dad, but I don't think he would want me to put it on here...
Here's my little Indian brother:

Everybody else in the kitchen.



And I tried to put one of me on, but it wouldn't work. =( Oh, well. It was a dorky picture anyway...

Here's all the wonderful food we were blessed with. (including Buckley)

Is it just me, or does that pitcher of ice tea look like hot chocolate? =P Anywho, the timer's going off, and I don't want to burn our pizza. And those are all the good pictures, so goodbye!!! ~Lizzie

Trying. Again. PLEASE WORK, PLEASE, OH PLEASE!

I don't know why I'm doing this. My blog stopped working, and hasn't been putting posts on, but I thought I'd try again, just because all my friends have been begging me to blog. Ok, so two of my friends have been begging me to blog. I bet everybody stopped paying attention to my blog anyway, cuz it's pretty much dead. BUT, if this post WORKS, please comment, AT LEAST say you read it, and tell me something you would like to see me do on here, as long as it keeps working.

On a totally different note, I can now say I've had a 2 - 4 year old robin's nest dropped on my head {thank you, Daddy}. I can also say I have cut my lip with fancy edged scrap booking scissors {thank you, blonde moment. I think I've seen enough of you now, can you go away?}. I can ALSO say that curling your hair when you are bored, is much better than playing with sharp things when you are bored {thank you, experience. I hope I have learned my lesson. I doubt it, though}. ALSO: DON'T BE EVIL TO YOUR FRIENDS, THEY MIGHT BE EVIL BACK {Thank you, Hannah O. and Kendra. It's a very useful lesson.}

I have had a very...busy summer. VERY, VERY busy. Why, I moved out of our house, into a condo, out of the condo, into our friends house, into a condo, and back to our house. In one week. =D Yeah, that week was pretty busy. BUT, unfortunately...we didn't move. Half of me wishes we had, half of me is EVER SO glad that we didn't. So I'll listen to the happy side. {Sorry, Andrea.}

I also went to camp, which I must say was pretty {{coughlamecoughcough}}. Usually camp is great, but I went to a different camp this year, and it was probably the worst week I've had this year. 1. I actually learned nothing new that week. I'm used to camp being a very moving time, but it wasn't at this camp. 2. There was NOTHING fun to do. I'm so glad that Stephanie was there, or I probably would've died of boredom... we spent WAY too much time at the gym, which was the worst part of the whole camp. 3. The people there were very...how do I say this nicely? They were not conducting themselves as Christians. At all. I'm still very thankful for the time that was put into my week, but I must say, it wasn't worth paying to go there.

I had a great thanksgiving, what about you all? I slept in. ON A THURSDAY. I'm SO THANKFUL FOR BEING ABLE TO SLEEP IN!!!! :p After that, I ate mom's A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. cranberry coffee cake. {{dreamy sigh}} After that, I hung around, tried to help in the kitchen, succeeded for a while, and then took a few pics, which I shall try to share later. I also named the turkey Buckly, which fit him to a tee. [[RANDOM: "to a tee" WHAT. IN. THE. WORLD. IS. THAT. SUPPOSED. TO. MEAN??? Fitting a turkey in a golf ball tee doesn't really work...where did that phrase even come from? There's probably an alternative definition to "tee" that I'm unaware of. Let's see {{grabs dictionary}} "TEE 3 n. a mark aimed at in certain games, such as curling or quoits." Ummm.....I still don't see how that has anything to do with it...maybe since it's "aimed at" that kinda implies that it has to be perfect...IDK. Weird. END RANDOM]] ...turkey Buckley, which fit him to a tee. We made the pies and stuff the day before, so we didn't have as much to do. Then of course, we ate a lot, and then we cleaned up the kitchen, and sat around and did nothing. So basically, we had a pretty lame thanksgiving, compared to others in the past. But I'm still thankful. :p

And today, we set up the Christmas tree lights outside. Mom needs to sell a couple pieces of furniture, to make room for the tree, that's why we only did it outside. While I was holding the lights for Dad, he dropped a birds nest on my head. My nice curled hair. Oh, well. =P I ALSO conviced him to set up our outdoor manger scene!! He hardly ever sets it up, but then I told him it was a waste of money to buy it, and never use it, so he put it in our yard. =D

Besides that, there isn't any very exciting news. THAT wasn't even exciting. :P And you probably won't even get to see this anyway, but oh, well. I just wasted a bunch of time I could've used up by being utterly bored. :P So, I guess I'll bring this to a close. {PLEASE, PLEASE POST, BLOGGER! PLEASE?!{ BYE!! ~Lizzie
