Yesterday Abigail came over to spend the night with us, so that she could go to Nick's play. It was a lot of fun! Sam also came over after school to hunt. He got a doe! Sarah got a buck, but with her truck.:) On the way to the play we looked for it, but could not find it anywhere.


Here are some picture of our wonderful day!

Abigail and Molly making muffins.


They were really good!

Sam's deer!

Abigail sprained her ankle in our woods!

It was SO great to have her over, and
I can't wait to have Rebekah over tomorrow!:)

Thanksgiving day at Nana's and Papa's!

On Saturday we went to my Mom's parents.
It was SO much fun seeing everyone!
Amy was up again from Georgia, with her family.
I can not believe how big Nathan is getting!

Here are some picture:

Baby Nathan yet again!:)

I tagged some people on the first post for today, make sure you take a look!

Yet again I'm Tagged!:)

Sam and William on the roof with the nail gun!:)

The rules are: Go to your Picture file, go to the 5th folder, open up the 5th picture, post it, and then tag 5 people.

But since the 5th picture in my folder was of a little kid I have babysit and I don't want to post her picture on the blog without her parent's permission, I instead did the 5th folder from the end and the 5th picture in it.

So.... anyway I am going to tag Enil, Lizzie, Natalie , mandolinartist aka amanda and Jessica!

We have finally eaten all the leftovers! Today we get to go over and have Thanksgiving with my Mom's family. Sunday I will be posting a lot. I just don't have time right now. I went to bed at 12:30 and woke up at 7:00, So Anna is still really sleepy!:)
BTW, a lot of us have this cold and can't talk. So the one's that have it are going around whispering. (I have yet to get it, I think it is because I drink a lot of white tea and it helps to prevent colds.) I think the Taylor's gave it to us!;)

Well.....this was really just a lot of rambling, so I better go.

  • Let the person who tagged you know when you've written the post.

1. I can't sew! At all not even a little! In fact I can't even thread a needle.:(

2. I hate the city! I don't think I could EVER live there! When I spent a few weeks at my Grandparents I got SO scared! I am so use to there being a lot of people in the house. It was also so quiet that you could hear every little noise. I hopefully can always live in the country!

3. I hate to be the center of attention! I don't even like people watching me open my birthday gifts!

4. I love riding in the car with the windows down, while listening to country music!:) The only time I don't like riding with the widows down is when it's raining or it's really cold. I just love to feel the wind in my hair and stick my arm out the window.

5. I am very easy to scare! One night I was walking from my parent's room to mine. There is a stair rail right next to the hallway. So, I'm walking down the hallway holding the rail when all the sudden I look down and their IS a hand!! It scared me SO bad! The hand of course belonged to Nick.;)

6. I love helping kids with violin and playing the violin!! It so much fun! I have been doing it for about four years. I enjoy every minuet of it!


I'm tagging : Meridith and Lizzie!

Violin!

So I was looking at one of my favorite websites Cafepress, and notice they had some really cool violin sweatshirts. Like these :

But, both these sweatshirts are around $30, plus shipping!
Even though I really like them I would only spend $15, on a sweatshirt.


A few weeks ago I was think about how I can dress up my violin case. One of my friends has people sign her case and another one has key changes all over it. Well I thought of this really cool idea that I can put mini button all over the strap like this:


The only problem is that these little buttons cost like $2 each and I will need like 100 buttons to cover my violin case. Hum.......I think that's a problem!:)

Oh! I also found these really awesome violin shoes!! I think this pair is my favorite, but I also like this one.

Nick and my Dad are on their way up to Greensboro for the pre-season basketball tournament! They will be spending the night,and since I have DUSS tomorrow I can't go!:( If y'all could please pray for Nick, that he does not get hurt and his side does not hurt.
You see early this week Nick was hit in the side by a member of the team. (He was not waring his protective vest!) It was really painful and swollen! It really hurt to run! He is doing a lot better and hopeful get through the games to day and tomorrow!
