Oh Happy Day!
This winter has been a strange one for Michigan and the Midwest. We've had a few really big blizzards getting as much as 10+ inches of snow. We recently had a big blizzard where it was thundering and lightning during it! We had a lot of fun playing out in the snow and when it all melted and it was suddenly warm and spring - like, we brought out our bikes and were outside for the most of our mid - winter break. And it snowed. Again. A lot. So now. . . with our 8-10 inches of snow on the ground, and the roads are bad. I don't have any school today! Hurray!!! Just me. Well, in my family. Lil, Ella and Vivien still have school! I think this is like the 5th snow day for us. . . I'm definitely going to this middle school next year! Well, I should go! Be sure to comment and check out the rest of our amazing blog! Toodles!

Snow Days and Snowy Days!
Ok, today I decided it was time to write a post since I haven't since like December! And now it's Febuary! There is a lot I need to catch up on. Let's start on our birthdays! Lil's was on January 4th and mine was on the 7th! We had a lot of fun with our birthdays and a big present that we got was Lil's iTouch that she bought with all her birthday money and I got a cell phone!!!! I was really excited about that! And if we haven't yet exchanged numbers we need to! (You know who you are!) Our birthday parties were a success! While Lillian had a "movie" themed party and also went to the theatres to see Secratariet, I had a backwards party where everything was backwards! We had all the pictures upside - down, the table was flippped upside - down and all papers and lights and everything imagineable was upside - down, backwards or inside - out! We had signs saying "Goodbye" when they walked in and "Hello" when they left. Our 'activities' were all done backwards meaning we did presents, then games, then cake, then dinner and THEN we played Just Dance 2 and talked. The game that we played was sort of hard! One person stood up in front of the all the other people. They were assigned an animal that only the 'crowd' knew about and they had to guess. The catch was that no=yes and yes=no. So in your head it was hard to keep track of it all! It was a lot of fun though! All in all it was a great birthday and party for both of us. We're getting a LOT of snow here in Michigan right now! I have already had 4 snow days! Recently we had 2 days off of school this week because of that 'blizzard' that was supossed to be covering over 1/3 of the U.S. It stretched from here to Texas! And one day Texas was colder than Alaska! Crazy! Me and my family had a BUNCH of fun hanging around and making our annual, awesome toboggon hill slide!! It's this big hill that's really steep that you go down on a sled and then go through a cave and once you're through the cave you hit a big bump that slows you down and you finally go on your side. It's awesome! I need to start posting more pictures, ever since I got a camera I've been taking a bunch of pics. It's so much fun to go down on your stomache too! The other snow days I also had 2 days off because of how much snow there was! My new school is awesome! Oh, speaking of school, it's going great! I've made a lot of friends since the beinning of the school year and I'm adjusting to everyone including the teachers. I've started to do ballroom dancing as an after school activity and in a few weeks I'll be joining cross country. Anyway, I got to go! Since it's Saturday I have to clean my room. . . Bye!
P.S. I need your help for helping me decide who to cheer for at the Superbowl tomorrow. I was going for the Steelers but my whole family is cheering for the Packers and I don't know which one to cheer for now! I'm stuck so when you comment give me your advice! And quick the Superbowl is in less than 26 hours!! (I think. . .)
