It's actually happening!

I decided today that I'm going to buy and iPod! I'm so excited! My mom and I are going to get it on Wednesday! I can't wait. And also on Wednesday, I'm helping out with the day camp at my church and we're going to Tinkertown! And then after that we might go to Staples for last minute school supplies! I'm so excited to go back to school! Right now I'm soooo excited!

What I did in the Last 3 days:

On Wednesday, there was a day camp at my church that meets every Wednesday and we went to the fire hall. It was a really interesting trip. Then we made some pretzels with the kids. We had nothing to do while the pretzels were being baked so we went to 7-11 to get slurpees. We walked back to the church and we finished up the pretzles. Then I had to go home with Corrie and Pam, but first we went to pretty much every place on St. Marys! We had to drop off some pretzels at the fire hall, we had to wash Corries car because the carwashing garage was right there, and then we had to go to 7-11 again because Pam didn't get a slurpee with all the kids. It took forever! (I'm just kidding corrie + pam) It didn't actually take that long. And ontop of that... Joey, Micah, and I were all sitting in the back seat in a non airconditioned car!

On Thursday, I didn't do anything so I felt super sick at supper time. I hadn't done anything that day, and I had eaten a whole bunch of candy! :P

Today I designed my desk that my dad is going to build for me. It's really nice. It took a really long time though. I think that it'll be super cool/awesome when it's done!

Shopping...

Yesterday I went shopping with two of my friends from school. We had a blast. We went a ton of places and my mom took us out for lunch! Yum...Moxies.

We went to Polo Park mall. We started shopping at about 12:45 and we were supposed to meet my mom back at the elevator at 1:00 and we got a little side tracked in Mairposia. We spent at least 45 minutes in that store trying on dresses. We had so much fun. So, after that we rushed to the elevator to meet my mom and she was there waiting for us. We said that we were not near done. So, we were on our way again! We didn't go back to Mariposia...thank goodness! We went to some of the stores that we shop in more often and bought a few nice things. I got a new pair of jeans and a hoddie. Then we were finally done at about 3:00 and we went to Winners by Kildonan Place. We spent lots of time there trying on shoes and such. It was soo much fun! After our trip to Winners we just headed over to the Bulk Barn (It's in the same plaza.). We bought $7.46 worth of candy and ate it in the car on the way back to Jessica and Jamie's houses.

Overall it was a pretty successful shopping trip! Tons of fun!
That's all I have tonight!

The past 5 days...

Wow! It's only been five days since i've written on my blog but it seems like it's been so much longer! Many things have happened in five days!

1. My aunt and uncle left on Monday morning.
2. I went shopping for Birthday presents for Nicholas.
3. The Vissers came home and we had a really nice dinner.
4. I made an awesome card! (it's a tractor)
5. Nicholas had his Birthday.

Overall these five days have been very good ones! I am enjoying every minute of my summer! I love summer. No school, don't have to get up early(sleep in), go fun places, visit with family and friends.

As some of you may know we planted grass seed a week and a half ago I think. It's finally begining to really grow! It's soo cool to see it grow. Almost the whole lawn has a green haze over it! It's very exciting.

Anyways...that's all I have to share today.

Random stuff...

Well...where do I begin? It's been a while since I wrote. Ahhh...yes, back to Wednesday. On Wednesday I did huge groceries with my mom. We also went to Home Outfitters to get some pillows and new towels. Anyways...after that I went to Kristy's house and we boated to Lockport and we had supper there. We went back to her house and went swimming. That night Kristy came over to sleep at my house. Then we both went to Jamie's house and we went swimming there too! And then...I came home really late last night and went to bed! It was wonderful!

Anyways...that's all I have for today!

Long weekend!

It's the Monday of the long weekend! Ahhh...a day to relax. Only two more days untill my aunt and uncle come from Ontario! I'm so excited!

Last night we had a "camp" fire in our little piece of the bush beside our house. It was beautiful outside! It was a comfortable temperature and there were hardly any mosquitoes! There were lots of gnats though. We had smores!! Yummm! The chocolatey goodness mixed with the cruncy graham crackers and the gooshy marshmallow!

Anyways..that's all I have to write today!

I'm back...

I have once again entered the world of blogging. I originally had a blog, but then I didn't write on it for a really long time, and therefore I cannot find it back. I'm hoping that this one will last much longer than the other.

I am a little frustrated right now. My aunt and uncle's dog is staying at my family's house when they are gone to PEI, and he wasn't cooperating very well with my dog, Buddy. They keep on fighting and they won't stop biting each other! Jed is a very cute dog though!

My summer has been great! The first thing I did this summer was go to the Winnipeg Folk Festival. It's a weekend of relaxing and listning to mostly good music. It was super fun!
The second thing was my trip to Ontario that came up last minute! It was really fun. I stayed with my best friend, Valerie, and we did all sorts of fun things together! We went to Wild Water Works and we went shopping with our cousins! Fun times Val! PJ pants that were only $4.77!! Yaaa!
The third thing was my Volleyball camp! That was really fun too! I went with two other friends and we played volleyball for at least 5 hours a day! It was super fun!
I also went to my friends cabin this past week from Tuesday to today. We had three storms in those four days! It was really fun too!
And now...all most time for school. Just kidding! Still another month. I'm surprisingly excited to go back to school. I'll get to see all my friends again; back to school shopping...the best thing ever!

Anyways, it's late and I should probably take the dogs out again!
