New look--again

Yeah, I did it again. I just loved the green and brown, so here is a new look. :) If you want something cute too, go to thecutestblogontheblock.com. They have the most adorable choices!


And the weekend is finally here! Except it's going to be a little dissapointing becase I'm going to have to do some homework. :(


p.s. anybody know how to get the pyzam thing off the top?
Cuz it's not a pyzam background anymore.

I can't wait till this weekend....

My weekend was good, but I bet Thanksgiving weekend will be even better. I just can't wait!! It was so easy to start school this week because I know I only have to do it 3 days! And then after Thanksgiving, we get to put all our decorations and our put our tree up! (we have a fake one) I'm soo excited! I love this time of year!!

(sorry for all the exclamation marks!)


So what I did this weekend:

Friday night I babysat.

Saturday morning I read my book and studied for my piano exam. In the afternoon I went babysitting, and then went to cousins night at Luke and Heidi's. We did karaoke...it was fun. Thanks guys! :)

Sunday after church I had my piano exam at ICC, and after I was done with my testing, I helped out with it. I'm pretty sure I failed it.... :\

I made supper Sunday night because my parents were gone. We had hamburgers. YUM. They were delicous.

yeah, so it wasn't too exciting.

Amazing!

Check this out! This girl is only 5 years old and she is playing the piece that I'm working on. And she plays it PERFECTLY! So jealous....

THE PHONE

The Inside
The outside

Here's a few pictures of the phone. It really didn't do too much damage to it. Just melted the screens and intenna. :) And ruined it.

I know, this is crazy how many posts I've done this weekend!!

Wendi Wendi Wendi

Here's a video of Johnny saying Wendi. It's not very good or clear. This one's for you, Jenna!!
(o, and I was trying to get him to say gross. :)

Dusting & Nightmare

So I was dusting a litttle bit today and my mom comes up to me and says,
"What's the occasion?"

"Mom, there does not have to be an occasion to dust!"

Mom, just so ya know, we do not have to be having company in order to dust.

****************************************************
Tonight I babysat. (I actually still am... the kids are in bed!) They settled down after a couple of nightmare hours... and this is why it was such a nightmare:
Have you ever had a kid:

put a cell phone in the microwave? In case you were wondering, it totally ruined it. And it smells terrible. I haven't tried to turn the phone on, but I'm pretty sure it won't work.

Or play with matches?

Or sprinkle glitter all over the place and then make even more of a mess trying to clean it up so there parents don't find out?

Ok, I'm going to stop there.... :) I must say I almost felt like crying at one point.

I love hiking

This fall our family has been into hiking. About a month ago, we went to Starved Rock. It was really pretty, but the trails were kind of a bummer. They had board walks thru the woods and steps going up the hill. It didn't really feel like hiking.

But just this past Sunday we went to Farmdale Park with some families. We ended up getting lost and had quite the adventure! We climbed up a really steep hill thinking it would get us back... but when we got up there we found out that there was no way to go but down. Later, we came to a really wide creek and we knew that if we got across it, we would be back to our vehicles. So we all rolled up our pants and took off our shoes & socks and waded thru the ice cold water. Thankfully it wasn't very deep!

I wish it would stay warmer longer so we could go explore more places! :)

Here's just a couple pictures from Starved Rock:
It would've been really pretty with the leaves colorful, but it was such a late fall this year, that they hadn't started changing yet.
