OK guys, be prepared to be sitting here for a long time reading this....soooo...last Thursday, our school had a half day...then it was Spring Break...Thursday night, I babysat at church....Friday also babysat at church but for the Good Friday Service...Saturday, again at church, for the Easter Outreach from about 10 to 4...then straight to my grandma's house with family...then home for sleep...then Easter Sunday at church...then back to grandma's to celebrate Easter and April/March birthdays in the family. A couple days before Sunday, my dad asked me if I wanted to go to Nebraska...I was thinking about it, then I finally decided I would if someone else came with me. So Amanda ended up coming with us...so after birthday celebrations, around 4 in the afternoon, of course, Amanda and I had to make a pit-stop at CVS, then we drove to Indiana. We spent the night at my grandma's house where Amanda did my hair, lol...In the morning, we left around 7, then drove til about 5 in the afternoon til we reached Iowa...ha ha, WAYYYY too many funny times in Iowa...first, we get there and my dad's friend and his son were going to be late, so Amanda and I hung out in McDonald's while my dad walked around the "town"...ha ha Amanda...the girl "I like your bracelet..." By the way Amanda, I think I lost it....oops...then all these people staring...are these kids even allowed to drive yet? wow!! The best time was in the Pizza Hut parking lot listening to CD's waiting for Ryan and his dad to get there...This car pulls up next to us, and is staring at us...I'm like oooo no, I hope that's not them...ha ha, because this person seriously looked like a girl, it was crazy...well, it turned out it was a girl and they were just looking cuz my dad had the hood of the car up...so yeah, they got us a Phillip's screwdriver I think it was....anyways, so after that, the real people showed up and we're like ok, much better...not a guy that looks like a girl...then we drove to some cabin which they have connections to somehow...and we fished...my dad was the only one to catch a fish then...then we ate over the camp fire...then we played Up & Down the River...ha ha, Amanda & I actually didn't lose for once! YES!! then Mr. Perry & my dad went to sleep in the cabin thing (By the way, Amanda & I really roughed it, lol outhouses) while Amanda, Ryan, & I hung out by the camp fire & talked all night long til 7 in the morning...it was Crizay! I caught a fish at like 3 in the morning ha ha...and I got to let it go too, I told you guys I would let it go without dropping the cloth :). So then we talked the rest of the night....lots of inside jokes now! (hot, gorgeous, sexy, nice, Always & Forever, "Ryan, stop doing that!" my blankets getting holes in them...Amanda's blanket that is all brown and not white anymore...i love you, ha ha that was funny...awkward silence...o wait, there are no awkward silences at 4 in the morning...Ryan, is it 3 o'clock yet? O wait, the moon hasn't gone around the whole world yet...lol, ooops, it only goes around half of it...breaking trees and putting more trees in the fire...guys, I got to carry a couple trees...that was exciting...Wow, there were tons more, but I can't think right now cuz it's 8:42, and I just got back from a sleepover which I slept for three and a half hours...so if you guys have anymore, leave them in my comments...but nothing bad, lol...then Tuesday, we drove about two more hours or so, and went to Nebraska where they live...Wow, they had an awesome family!

In the morning, my dad wakes us up at 6:59...breakfast's at 7...o great, ha ha...so yeah, we were about 5/10 minutes late, lol...oops...so we ate late...then we all talked and stuff...and their dad had a good devotional...then they all had to go to SCHOOL! sry your break wasn't long...Amanda~ha ha...

We stopped twice, but only got out of the car once...we got home at 11:10...it was Crizay fo sho, lol...that was great, he totally needs to live in Detroit so he can talk...idk why Amanda doesn't have an accent...but according to Ryan, I do...O well...so yeah, the trip was AWESOME. It wouldn't have been the same without Amanda & she let me know about that for sure on the way home, lol, in the Wendy's parking lot...We're going again according to Ryan in the summer....umm, so we get home around 11, I talk online to Garrett, Will, and Adam I think...so I went to bed around 2:30 in the morning...and my alarm went off at 11, cuz I thought that would be enough time to sleep...NOPE! I turned off my alarm clock and went back to bed...til my dad woke me up and was like we're having company in 3 hours...i'm like ooo great...it was 2 in the afternoon already...so we had Sara, Aunt Iris, Zach, and Leah over for supper...then Sara, Zach, Leah, Dan, and I went to the movies to see The Ring 2, then we went home for a few minutes, Amie came over, we went to Bella's I think it's called...not for sure, and we went to Blockbuster, where they got The Grudge, and Chronicles of Riddick...lol :) :) then we came home, they made popcorn, I went to sleep after arboud 5 minutes of the Chronicles of Riddick...then...Friday morning, I went to Frankenmuth with....Aunt Iris, mom, Grandma, Mrs. Wilkie, Jo, John, and Jill...then I went to Jill's house, then to my house to pick up a few things, then to the "Princess Sleepover Party" that was fun! we had a lot of fun & the devotional was really good!
