My week

I know I have a lot to catch up on. OK. So first I'll talk about Friday and slowly move my way to tonight when everyone at my soccer team went to a pizza place, Bellacino's, for dinner and so our coaches could hand out awards and stuff.

FRIDAY: My horse back riding lesson was canceled on Thursday so I had it Friday morning. The horse I ride, Flash, stays up in a pasture that is on a hill. The day before it rained and rained and rained so the hill was way muddy. When I had got Flash and was leading him down the hill, trying to go super slow so he wouldn't slip, he slipped (go figure). I let go of the leadrope and he skied down the hill about 20 feet. When I walked back up to him he wasn't spooked at all. Good horse. In my lessons I'm working on jumping courses--which is a series of jumps in an order. One jump I did was so adorable! It was a few hale bales laid out next to each other. On each side was a hollowed out pumpkin with yellow and orange flowers in it and on top of the jump was a small pumpkin with a drawn on face. It was cool.
That night we went to a 'bonfire and hotdog roast' at a friend's house. My mom came home early from work sick so she couldn't go (I'll be a nice daughter and not mention the part that her boss drove her home and my mom threw up on her car....lol). But me, my dad and Trevor did. It was fun. We had hotdogs (Duh) and dessert and ate it up by the fire. Which wasn't exactly a bonfire....more like a camp fire but whatever.

Nothing happened Sat, Sun or Mon so I'll talk about today.

TUESDAY: We left to go shopping at about 1 in the afternoon. The soccer thing wasn't until 6. First we went to Hamrick's. OK, no offense if any of you like that store but talk about a grandma store. I mean, seriously, everywhere I looked there was that cute little puff of gray or white hair all old ladies have. My mom bought a few things but not me. Me and Trevor sat in the car for like 30 minutes when my mom was in the store. It even smelled old lady-ish and I have a cold and a headache and that smell...ugh...anway. Then we went to our mall. We wandered around a little. Lately I have wanting to have my ear pierced up high on my ear. 'wanting to' as in changing my mind ever other minute. But I did it today! It looks so cool! I don't have any pics at the moment but I'll get one. When the girl did it I didn't even flinch. It didn't hurt...nearly as much as I thought it would anyway. But now it is soooo tender.....
Then we drove to the pizza place.

It was a great soccer season. We came second over all. Oh, in that pic above, notice how all the girls are wearing green. Weird.....

Oh and before I forget:
We actually go snow! Well not us personally but only about maybe a 30 minute drive from our house. That is sooo awesome!!

Things I did today

A. Went to church (usual)

B. Went to go see High School Musical 3 with friends (unusual)

C. Stared at the wall (usual) ;)


Like every Sunday morning we went to church. And I can't tell you how happy I am that we moved the clocks back one hour!! YIPPEE!! One whole more hour of sleep! Which is nice--it made it feel like we left for church at 10 instead of 9. Since we live an hour away from our church we have to get up early to get there on time.

Right after church, all the kids gather in the parking lot or a strip of grass behind the parking lot and kick a soccer ball around. Almost every kid at our church plays soccer in the same league. We just had our last game of the season Friday and it didn't go great--I could go into detail, but I could go on forever how the other team was using elbows in ways they shouldn't and that I thought two of our players almost passed out. :P. Need I say more?? A few of the girls were talking about going to go see the new High School Musical movie that came out one or two weeks ago. Now, I'm not a big fan of High School Musicals, but me and my little brother, Trevor have watched the 2nd one on TV whenever it's on and we had really been wanting to go see the third one. I like to go just to make fun of it! ;).

15 kids from church ended up going to go see the movie. And 5 of them were boys.....who laughed and made fun of everyone in the movie the whole way through but they're boys-what else do we expect? :). I thought the movie was OK. Certainly cheesy in parts and Troy is a bit obsessed with Gabriella!! (Anyone else think that??). I don't think it was a good as the second High School Musical, but better than the first and I have to admit parts were funny. The movie went longer than I expected. We got into the theater after 1:30 and there wasn't too many previews before the movie and we didn't get out of there until 3:48 to be exact.

After we got home it was already dark. It's half nice having it get dark at 5:30 and half annoying. We ate dinner and now I am so bored! I finally sat down and started a blog. Yeah, I've had blogs before but they never seemed to last longer than a few weeks. Probably because I pressured myself to post everyday, which I couldn't do now even if I wanted to...well I guess I could since soccer ended..but I have nothing really to write about!

I'll be back.
