Party Time!

I'm fifteen! wow....now I am able to get my permit. That's a little scary. Not to mention in 2 years I'll be graduating. Goodness...how time flies. And the end of 2005 is drawing near, with 2006 approaching rapidly. I've been thinking lately about how fast time really does go once you look back on it. It makes me really want to use my time wisely. I've also been thinking about what New Years resolutions I'll make this year. I almost never finish everything on the list. Actually, just make that never. But I still make them every year because maybe I'll complete some at least. I still haven't managed to read the Bible all the way through, but I'm getting there. Hopefully, this year I will. I needs to jet now, so cya'll!

Oh, here's a pic of my ring that I got for my b-day. Ain't it perty?

One more day!!

I can hardly contain myself...only one more day! As I have failed to convince Mother to have my birthday tonight, I will just have to be patient. Which is rather hard for me. I was going to have a birthday party and go bowling for the first time with some friends, but it didn't work out. I am going bowling tonight with my family though, and going out for dinner at I think Ruby Tuesday's.

Today was a very beautiful day. Not too cold, and not hot. I spent most of the day practicing basketball, and the last hour of daylight playing with my youngest siblings, Zackary and Emily. We were playing Indians with their tepee that Mom helped them build on the volleyball court. :) That's something I haven't done in ages, but I decided that since this is my last day to be 14 forever, I might as well act like the kid I won't be for too much longer. At least I still have enough imagination for it. Well, I must get ready for our outing. Toodles!

This was from Ryan's birthday......he must have been quite famished after all those exams or something..

Two of my best friends....

Doughy dough doughnuts

Today we sold a bunch of Krispy Kreme doughnuts for GCS's basketball team. It was fun doing it with everyone, but I'm kinda glad to have gotten it over with. This time I wasn't as nervous about going up to people and asking them if they wanted to buy some doughnuts, but I think it was also because Roy was with me this time. Last time it was just me and my sister Mollie, so I did most of the talking. So now I'm at the church, waiting until we go see King Kong with everyone. I hope it'll be good, since it's by Peter Jackson. Hopefully I'll have something interesting to write about next post, sorry this one isn't very. Looking forward to the meeting!

December!!

It's December! And only 21 days till my birthday! I am definitely ready to age another year too. :) Also another good thing that happens in December is our meeting. The time when almost all of my friends come together....it's so fun. But it also makes it extremely sad when it's time for everyone to leave. Ryan's birthday is coming up soon too. In 8 days. I know what I'm going to get him already, but I can't say because one day he might just decide to visit my lowly blog. :)
Must run, adios!
