The Pup Post

Just because I'm the kind of person who likes to mix things up, I am going to do another post about pups...but not just mine!



I know you guys are all totally awestruck, but how could I not post about this:







This is Missie, Glenna's new dog. Isn't she adorable? She is a Schnit-Zu, which is a cross between a Schnauzer and a Shit-Zu.







She is such a little cuddle bug! I love her! Oh, and the W's love her to.







Jack, well, he's not sure what to think of her.



Speaking of Jack, look at this silly picture I got of him yawning!









He looks like he is singing!


And of course, my "Pooby." I'm sure you all have guessed that my camera is filled with pictures of him. And so, here they are!

Yay! I also took pictures of him when we gave him a bath today! They are hilarious! I also took a video of him going crazy afterwards.

This is the S's new dog, the same Mr. S from the TcGosalf post. Her name is Suzie, and she is a Shit-Zu. She is soooo cute!

Well, that's all for now. Tune in tomorrow for the August Contest!

The Three Wigs of Mr. S. (And Other Crazy TcGosalf Things...)

Well, since we just did our TcGosalf performance, I thought I would post some pictures I took during practices.



First: The Three Wigs of Mr. S.!



Wig number 1: The Curls of Inigo Montoya (or however you spell his name)







Wig number 2: The Mullet of David





And finally, Wig number 3: The Curls of Go-Sistah!

And speaking of Go-Sistah...

That would be me.

Bekah tried the wig on too. But it looks better on me, don't you think? :-)

Here are some more random pictures...

This is Kes. Hi Kes.



This Kara practicing her song, "My Favorite Things." She sounded great! I played the piano and sang too. (This was all in the pre-show.)

This is the angel's, Bekah and Natalie, "cloud."

"The Plaid Gig" was also in the pre-show.

Here is a view of the whole stage.

For those of you who saw the performance or were in it, remember the scene where the Go-Wives come out and sing "Davy Goodbye?" Well, I have a video of them practicing. But one practice, just for fun, we had a bunch of guys do it! And guess what? I got a video of that too! The videos are too big to be in this post, or even in the same post together, but I will post them separately right under this post. Do you see them down there? Good! Go watch them!

The Way It was Supposed To Be...

(Sorry it is not the full thing)

...And the Way the Guys Did It!

Happy Birthday To Me!

Today is my 13th birthday! Huzzah!

I'll post pictures from my surprise party soon!

The Seven Stages of Acacia's Birthday Cake

Acacia's cake was so lovely, I just had to write a post about it.



Stage 1: Perfect!



Stage 2: Candles

Stage 3: Lit Candles! Ooooh!

Stage 4: Blown-out candles :-( (Hey look! One is still lit! Yay! Wait- that means we can't eat it! No!)

Stage 5: De-ribboned and cut

Oh, and of course a cake-cutting pose:

Stage 6: Served

Stage 7: EATEN! My favorite stage!

Well there you go! It was some good cake...I kind of miss it...

Next: The Three Wigs of Mr. S. (And Other Crazy TcGosalf Things...)

The Party Post

Lately, I have been to a few parties. Here are some pictures of them, taken by my new camera!

This is at Kelly W's Sweet Sixteen. This her opening her family's card...


And this is her opening her family's gift! An iPod!

I also went to Acacia's 13th birthday. Everyone seemed to be afraid of the camera!

Anna...
Acacia,
Even Samentha, who secretly stole my camera and took pictures of herself when I wasn't looking!

Meredith was afraid too.

Here we all are...
Eating lunch...

Preparing for the water balloon fight, (muahaha!)

And swimming! That big black thing in the water is their pet shark.

Not really.

HELLO, STRANGE CREATURE WITH A CAMERA!

I MEAN YOU NO HARM!
This is Acacia opening her gifts.



I also went to the baby shower for Micah. Here are a couple of pictures I took there.


Up next: The Seven Stages of Acacia's Birthday Cake and The Three Wigs of Mr. S.

A Couple of Notes and an Important Announcement

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I am waiting to upload pictures from my NEW CAMERA. Only one problem: there are no good batteries in our entire house! Feel free to donate.

Jessie, sorry it has taken me so long to get your bag done! I just haven't had the money because I spent it all on my NEW CAMERA. I promise I will buy the fabrics when I get more money! I have looked, but I can't find plain grey. Would some with music notes be okay? I know you like music...

ONE WEEK UNTIL I TURN 13! For those of you who have been following the countdown on the bottom of this page, you know that. But I bet some of you didn't even know it was there!

The TCGOSALF perfomance is this Sunday! I am so excited! Please come!

And finally, when I upload the pictures from my NEW CAMERA and finally write a post, I will hold the August contest. And it will be in August. I promise.


P.S.
I love my NEW CAMERA.

Surprise!

On Sunday night, the W's came over to watch golf. Glenna and I stayed in my room practically the whole time planning my birthday party. We had all of the activities planned out, and even the invitations were written on the computer. However, I couldn't have it until September.



Well, that problem was fixed.



On Monday, my mom told me that we were going to the E's house for dinner. When we got there, Kara opened up the door for us, and all of my friends jumped up from behind the couches yelling "SURPRISE!" I couldn't believe it!



It turns out that ever since we threw a surprise party for Mrs. E, Kara's mom, Kara had been planning one for my 13th birthday! What was really funny was that we played all of the games that Glenna and I organized the day before! That was very sneaky of her. She tricked me into planning my own surprise party!



I have to say, I was completely surprised! I had absolutely no idea! But a lot of people had given hints, and a couple almost gave it away, but I never caught on. Which is a good thing!



Pictures to come!

Beauty

'Nuff said.

More Hobbes Pictures

Here are some more pictures I found of Hobbes splashing. Sorry I didn't put them in the post!

Leapin' L's

Congratulations, Jessie! I liked your name for this photo best. (note: her entry was actually "Leapin" and then our last name.) Just comment on this post and tell me how you want your bag to be!

Thanks for playing, everyone! Check in a few weeks for the August Contest!
