TOO MUCH!
There is WAYYYYYYY too much to type about so I will just sum it up, in. . . hmmm only a few sentences. Ready, go! We started our new schools 2 weeks ago and we all seem to be doing fine. Church is good. We are still unpacking. I started swim at the same time I started school; it's a really good team! My mom and Dad have been working full time at the new office and. . . yeah, that's basically all the juice! So, au revoir!

How did you convince your parents to let you have one?
Since I recently "got one" that is the most popular question people are asking me. That's right, I got a FaceBook!!!! I'm soooooo excited and happy! My FB is under "Madison Thurber" in case you want to look it up!

Bob Jr: Missing Fred!
In this short but hilarious film, you will see drama, anger, frustration and lots more! This is a "movie trailer" but there actually will not be a real movie to go along with it - we just made it for fun! Enjoy!

Kristen Bell's Sloth Metltdown Auto-tuned!

For no reason at all. . .
Usually when I get bored I usually wind up being on the computer (I don't know how, I just magically get there) and so can you guess where I wound up today? Yupp. The computer! (Oh, you're so smart!) Anyways, there are a few minor things that are happening in my life. First of all, I am very embarrassed to say that 2 weeks ago I dropped my phone in the toilet :( blah blah, and I got it to work just fine. However, a few days ago the touch screen started to not work! And now my phone is completely useless. I cannot send messages, end phone calls and a whole bunch more that makes my phone wasteful. I can read all the texts and reply back but I cannot actually send them! Grrrr!! Another thing that is a bit brighter is that I'm getting a FaceBook!!! I am soooooooooo happy! I can't wait till I get one! Also, right now we are deciding between 3 very nice houses; 2 are in Richland and 1 is in Kennewick. My last day of school is Friday, March 9! I am very sad to leave all my friends but also happy that I will not have piles of HW and will be able to sleep in (maybe get around 3 more hours of sleep, hurrah!) I've also started a new "goal" for myself. Every half hour that I watch TV I have to do 50+ crunches. For an hour, 100+ crunches, and so on. Now if I'm on the computer, every minute I'm on there I have to do 1 crunch. Let's say I was on it for 30 minutes (like I probably will be now) I will have to 30+ of them. Pretty dandy way to stay fit, ain't it? Well, see ya'll later. I will write more about our business when it gets closer to our move! Oh!! We are making another Bob Jr this weekend so it should be posted hopefully by Sunday or maybe even Saturday. It's going to be very funny and only like 1:45! Bye bye! Got to go do my crunches! ;)
P.S. I added that random picture because usually people tend to read more things if there are pictures (I know that's what I do!)

Countdown to our. . .
MOVE! That's right, we are officially moving on the 19th of March. My dad told his boss yesterday and everything went smoothly. Wait, we're moving? We're moving!! It's so weird!! And can you guess where? That's right, across the country into Washington! It is a very long drive (and 28 1/2 days for those who would like to walk) to get to our new house. House? House! We found a house just a few days ago! It's a 6 bedroom house that is in a great neighborhood and we are renting it from a nice Mormon couple. Well, got to go and start packing!!! (I have only around 2 weeks left of school, so weird!!)

For those out there. . .
For those out there that read this. . . we are just giving an update about our lives! Lil and I (Ha! I'm using correct grammar! Anyways. . .) School is good for the both of us and we are also doing another Bob Jr. soon!!! Swim for Lil is going great! As for me, whew! I'v had one accident after another! I had pneumonia, then I broke my toe (it's ok Hannah! ;), then I had something of a kidney infection and now: (screen fade to black, sorrowful music playing) I was walking in the middle of my school hallway when I slipped and fell right on my butt and head. It hurts so much more than you think! I can't bend down or put pressure on it. For swim, I guess you could call me a slacker because I've been missing so much! There are a bunch of swim meets going on that all my friends are doing but I can't do! The reason for this is when we had to sign up for these meets, we were not sure if we would still be here! So right now I feel like there is no point on swimming. . . Ugh! I'm going to miss all my friends here! And everything we do! It will be so weird going away ;). No new news about our move. We were supposed to get the "ok" last Thursday but, of course, stuff happened and they didn't. Anyways. . . I have to go! See ya!

New Computer!!!
Guess what?!?!?!?! Today Lil and me were just sitting on the couch reading our books when our parents came down with a big package. They had mischievous look on their faces as they passed us the heavy present. Then my mom said there were going to be rules, and that we needed to share. . . me and Lillian had NO idea what she was talking about! So when we opened it, we had no idea what to say!!!! We got. . . A BRAND NEW MACBOOK LAPTOP!!!!!!!!!!! Me and Lil were jumping up and down with excitement!!!! My Grammy, Grandpa, Papa Moe, Auntie Christi, Uncle Merrill pitched in to get us this AMAZING gift!!! Me and Lil just couldn't believe it! I'm typing on it right now! I am sooo excited to be able to use this for homework, emailing, and most of all: BOB JR!! Get ready people - Bob Jr's are going to get a lot better!

Apologies
I've just realized that I have been only posting on Holidays! So I made up my mind to write today because there is no Holiday! The only thing is is that I have absolutely nothing to write about. Zip. Zilch. Nada. So bear with me if it gets boring. Here it goes! Ok, lets start with us moving! Our family is 99.99% sure that we are
moving to the state of Washington! Right now we are living in a mad
house, trying to decide where and when to move, which city to live in,
financial stuff, trying to get rid of things we don't want, and my
family and I are starting to do basic packing. As of now we have done
most of the books, clothes and toys we won't need for a few months, and
most of our basement. I can't imagine living in another house because I
have lived in this one most of my whole life! (I'm only 12 -almost 13!- so I don't remember much about my other houses.) While we are talking about my age, lets get around to my birthday! It is this Saturday and I'm really excited! Lillian's birthday is this Wednesday. I still haven't even planned my party yet though! Now, the last thing I'm going to talk about it the picture on our blog. Today I spent ONE WHOLE HOUR AND 30 MINUTES trying to get a picture on that would not work. When it finally went on, it was either too small or too big!!!! So instead of you guys having to take a microscope to look at our new picture, I decided just to let it be huge. Me and Lil apologize if you have a heart attack when the page first loads and it scares you so much. Ok, see ya!

Happy New Year!
Another year come and gone! I can't believe it, it's sooo crazy! 2012!! WAHOO!!!!! This New Years was awesome because I made all sorts of goodies. For the 3rd annual time I made New Years bread, I usually start making it around eight or nine so we can have our first bite at midnight when the ball drops! This was Ella's first year of staying up late because she turned eight this year. On previous New Year's we put Ella and Vivien to bed after we've watched our "new" movie (a movie we haven't seen before!), around nine and pretend it's New Years! Ha, they don't suspect a thing. . . Anyways, in addition to my homemade bread I made Peppermint Chocolate Fudge, and a new tradition. . . Macaroni and Cheese Balls! A few days ago I went to Somerset Mall and California Pizza Kitchen! I ordered, as an appetizer, these Macaroni Balls. They are macaroni and cheese rolled into balls, covered with Panko (Japanese style bread crumbs) and fried. They were just so good I looked up the recipe and made them! Ha, and they were delicious! Ok, well I have to go now, Happy New Years! It's pretty late (it is almost 12:30!) and my parents are nagging at me ;). Adieu!
My glorious bread!!!! Oh it was sooo good! |
Me, Lil and Ella right before the ball drops. We all look dazed especially Lil! |
