Yesterday was my little sister Sarah’s birthday, now she is 14. The whole day she kept excusing her self from certain chores and activities by saying, “It’s my birthday!” We were forced to go to the Portsmouth Little Theatre production of “The Little Shop of Horrors”, but it actually turned out to be pretty good.

My birthday party turned out great. Mandy, Scott, James, Rob, Hannah, Kelsey, Danny, Rachel, Shannon, Sarah, and Collin all came to celebrate, swim, and eat Pizza Rolls. It was awesome! We kicked of the night with swimming, hot tubbing, and steaming in the sauna. Almost everyone swam with us, except Mandy and Scott of course. [...]

Sarah and I may possibly have had the best time of our lives at Lowe’s tonight. No more than an hour ago, I was pulling her around in one of those huge plastic garbage cans. She got in and we cruised around the store, flying through aisles and trying to avoid the sales associates lurking [...]

James’ grandmother died this morning. They got the call at 5:30am saying she had had a heart attack. The details are sad, and so is the family. James called me this afternoon, around 12:30pm, and told me the basics. He cried. I have NEVER seen, heard, or even heard of James shedding a tear for [...]

Wow. Thanksgiving seemed like it lasted forever! It was literally three days for me! Thursday I went to eat at my Gramaw’s house, my Mamaw’s house, Vicki’s house, and my aunt Holly’s house. I am still stuffed! Me and my cousing Mandy ate cheeseball shaped like a snowman for two days. I was SO sick, [...]

Friday was a good day for me. It was the first time in a while that I have actually gone to the movies and enjoyed the movie. I went with James, and Mandy and Scott (my cousin and her boyfriend) to see Thirty Days of Night. It was an excellent film! Scary, but not too scary [...]

Yesterday was my Mammaw Applegate’s 71st birthday. We had fun, especially after they gave my 3-year-old cousin Marshall cake! We made him say all kinds of funny things and tell us scary stories and everything. It was pretty funny. He told us one story about his brother eating all of the toys (or something like [...]
