Merry Christmas Y’all...even though im a day late
Monday school was boring. Krystina came over after school and then slept over. We made cookies for the cookie walk. I tried to make tasty cakes, but they didn’t come out right. I went to bed around 1:00am
Tuesday I stayed after for the Ski meeting. I can’t wait till the trip. We are going to have a blast. Ski trip to Vermont in 21 days. After school I came home and tried to make sugar cookies, but I burnt them. Kenz picked me up at 8:30 and we headed to Sweetwater for the work party. It was fun. We ate dinner, played musical chairs, and exchanged gifts. I got home at 11 and I had to pack a bag to stay at Alexa’s, wrap Pollyanna gifts, and get everything together for the next few days. I went to bed really late.
Wednesday I didn’t do much in school. Alexa’s mom picked up Alexa, Kenz, and I from school at 1:00. I was happy to get picked up early. When we got back to Alexa’s we ate lunch and cleaned up a little. Tera came over after school and helped. Then we got ready for the party. Tera, Kenz, and I fell asleep on Alexa’s bed and then we got up after Alex got there. The Pollyanna party was a blast. There were so many people there. We went caroling for a while and we were just skipping around singing for people that wanted to hear us and we were knocking on doors and singing to families. Alex, Kirstie, Anni, and I were singing some choir songs. It was cute. When we got back to Alexa’s we exchanged gifts with our Pollyanna’s. I did two Pollyanna’s...one with “the family” (the boys bought for the girls and the girls bought for the guys) and one with everyone else. The boys bought very well for the girls. Greg had me, and he bought me this really cute pink jacket, a scarf, and a poodle beanie baby. He even drew me a picture. I love it! Christine had me for the other Pollyanna and I got the pj pants, slippers, and shirt that I wanted from Charlotte Russe. It all matches and it’s so cute. When we went shopping I was talking about how I wanted to buy it and she ended up buying it for me. I had no clue she had me. I am surprised it was kept as a secret. Haha. I had Jasmine for the girl Pollyanna. I bought her pj pants and matching candles. She liked what she got. I bought Dan a green Hurley shirt, secret journal, marshmallows, pixie sticks, bunch n crunch, and a back scratcher. Haha. He liked his gifts alot. I think his favorite was the back scratcher. Cute. Haha. The rest of the night we just all hung out, talked, and laughed. Mostly everyone left around 12. Tera, Christine, Jess, Kenz, Dorothy and I slept over. Josh, Beau, CJ, and Kenny left around 3:00am. Kenz, Dorothy, and I fell asleep before they left in Alexa’s room.
Thursday morning Alexa’s mom made breakfast. There was soo many left over cookies too. Haha. Jess, Christine, and Dorothy went home in the afternoon. The rest of the day, Tera, Alexa, Kenz and I just hung out and cleaned up some stuff. We ordered Chinese for dinner. I had lomaine. Beau picked up Alexa around 7:00 and they went to the movies. They met Christine and Brett there. Billy picked up Kenz and they went somewhere. Tera and I stayed at her house and just talked to her mom the whole time. It was fun. We talked about friends and Christmas and stuff. My mom picked up Tera and I after 8:00. We dropped Tera home and then I came home and wrapped gifts till 2 in the morning.
Friday (Christmas Eve) I wrapped more gifts. I helped clean up the house. Alexa called me and told me she had a surprise visit from Beau and he gave her flowers. So cute. Im so happy that she is happy. We were supposed to go to church at 5:30 but we never got there. We went to the Shutes house around 6:30 and exchanged gifts with John, Kenz, and Johnallen. It was fun. We watched movies in John’s room and then I had to leave because we were having company at our house. The Egan’s didn’t come over and it felt really weird that they weren’t here. Christmas Eve wasn’t the same with out them. We never took Christmas pictures, or played cards by the fire place like we have done like every Christmas Eve. My night consisted of hanging with family/friends, eating, chatting online, and watching moves. Everyone left by 11:30. I talked to Dan on the phone while clean up and watching the family open gifts. Mom told me that she didn’t wrap any of Jon’s gifts or my gifts. She said if we wanted them wrapped that we would have to wrap them. Haha. So at like 12:30 I started wrapping all my brothers gifts and he wrapped all of mine. I went to bed really late.
Saturday (Christmas) Jonathan kept waking me up early. I was too tired to get up. I finally got up around 9:00. We opened gifts. I got an ice cream maker, hair dryer, rotating straightening brush, phone for my room, a bunch of scrap booking stuff, cds, dvds, clock, stuff for skiing, candles, money, and some other stuff. Nana came over after we wrapped gifts. The rest of the day I just hung with the two grandmom’s and the family. We watched “Greece” and “Gypsy” but I fell asleep during “Gypsy”. They left around 6:00. The rest of the night I just talked online and mom and I were looking through pictures on my computer. She was telling me that I have the best friends around. I definitely have to agree with her.
Sunday (Today) I just got out of the shower and I need to get ready. I am going Shopping with Alexa, Tera, Kenz, and Halina around noon. Hopefully we can meet up with Christine and Maddie. After shopping I am staying at Alexa’s for the night.
Christine and Maddie leave tomorrow for Hawaii. I am gonna miss you guys soo much!
