The Longest Christmas Post Ever!

This Christmas was out of this world for me! I'll start with Sunday and go through the week up to today. On Sunday my Grandma and Grandpa on my Dad's side of the family had Christmas at their house, but my Grandpa was really sick with a bad illness, so me, Fire and Star had to stay home (so unfair!!). Well my dad went to chat with his relatives and pick up our presents(kept us waiting for 3 hours!) from their house. From my Grandma and Grandpa (on my Dad's side) I got a Rock Tumbler (totally awesome!), a Propedo snow and water inflatable body board, a cool shirt and a hat, and a ornament of a Penguin with a Santa Hat on and holding a Candy Cane! From my Godmother and her husband I got a huge tuber called a Snow Dasher, and a ornament with a Snowman on a glass ice cube (so cool!).

MONDAY

On Monday my Grandma and Grandpa on my Mom's side of the family came to our house with tons of presents!! For presents I got a Pokemon Diamond and Pearl Royal Frost Theme deck (60 Diamond and Pearl cards in it) with a rare Diamond and Pearl coin in it, along with a playing mat, some Damage and Special Condition markers, and a Diamond and Pearl Official Rule Book too, some Fly Wheels (?), a Diamond and Pearl additional card packet (has 10 cards in it)Electivire Style cards, a EX Holon Phantoms packet with awesome cards in it, a Book on Weather patterns and other cool stuff about Weather and awesome Experiments too, a crosswords puzzle book, and finally a brand new Super-Cool Telescope with excellent vision scopes and a stand! I also had tons of fun with them around-the clock well there were at my house, and my Grandma's awesome to play with! She also brought excellent cookies some frosted, some not! Go Grandma's!

TUESDAY

Santa came today, and I was so exited to open my presents because there was a 90% chance that I was going to get a Nintendo DS!! I opened my first present and walla, the it was, in Crimson Red, just the color I had wanted it to be! I opened up my other Santa delivered presents and I found Pokemon Trozie, Transformers Decipticons, and Star Wars Lethal Alliance, all for Nintendo DS!! My Mom also got me an EAA ornament for Christmas because I became an EAA member this year!

After all the excitement we went to my Uncle Fred and Aunt Mary's house for Christmas. I had tons off fun there, and I also got taught how to play Pool better because they have a Pool table in their basement!! I also got to play with my cousin August (3 in a half years old), my cousin Charlie (same as August in age) and my cousin Sophie (1 in a half years old, so cute!). August and Charlie were wrestling around and August did a head-lock on Charlie, and also a pretty good Pile-Drive! Charlie countered with a flying-side kick and barrage of tackles and punches (some kicks, but got in trouble for them!)! In the end it was a draw! Sophie also knows a cool football move, I'll tell you how it works! You say 2, 42, Ready, Hike and Sophie goes charging into whoever is closest to her! It's really funny! I thought there wouldn't be any presents for us because we're like distant cousins to them, but it turned out we each got 5 dollars from Fred and Mary and a cool fishing game from them! It was a lot of fun there!

WEDNESDAY

My Dad left too early on Sunday and forgot some of our Christmas presents from my Godmother and Grandma and Grandpa, so I'll name them off. My Grandma dropped them off at our house. The penguin ornament, the shirt and hat, the Snow Dasher, and the Snowman ornament! That's about all we did that was Christmassy on Wednesday!

THURSDAY

We didn't do anything Christmassy this day, just did work around the house.

FRIDAY

We didn't do anything Christmassy this day, just did work around the house.

SATURDAY

Today we had to get up and get ready for the big Christmas gathering like Momto3cubs mentioned on her blog in her last post, my Grandma and Grandpa on my Mom's side came to our house again, my Great Grandma came to my house also (everyone mentioned is on my Mom's side of the Family) with my uncle and my cousin J. , and my aunt and other uncle came over with there dog Lambeau and a Lily-Bug (13 months old). I had tons of fun with their dog Lambeau because he would always chase you where ever you went if you weren't sitting down. We had lunch and I had some Ham, a serving of mashed potatoes, some of my Great Grandma's Famous jello and a cookie. Some of my friends came over to play after lunch so I went out to play with them for a while, and when I came back it was time to open presents! I got a Target Gift card for 10 dollars from Lily-bug's parents as did Fire and Star, and my Great Grandma gave us each a twenty dollar bill to buy our own present!! Then everybody settled down and started talking about different things. Then everybody started leaving one by one untill only we were left. Then after some persuading I got my mom to drive me over to Dollar General to buy a 4 foot Christmas tree (fake) with ELD lights on it that was on clearence for 50% off, so instead of 20 dollars it only cost me 10 dollars plus 50 cents tax. Here is a picture of it in my room fully decorated with my own ornaments from over the years I've been alive, and I think it looks Super-Cool!


And now I'm just typing and typing away!

Have a Happy New Year!

The Door Within Trilogy

A couple days ago I finished reading The Door Within trilogy! It was awesome! The main characters: a boy named Aidan who lives in Colorado, a girl named Antoinette who lives in Colorado by Aidan, and one of Aidan's old friends named Roby, who lives by Aidan's old house in Maryland. The beginning of first book is about how Aidan discovers how to get to a world named The Realm. Then he gets to the kingdom of Alleble were he becomes trained as a swordsman, taken on a mission to a city named Mithgard, where they find that the evil lord Paragor has plans to destroy the wonderful city of Mithgard!! Aidan then finds himself in the middle of the battle, he is wounded, saved only by Captain Valithor's quick thinking (Valithor dies in only about 20,30 seconds later!) was he able to live through the battle. But when Aidan's friend Gwenn gets kidnapped, Aidan must travel through the Labyrinth of the monstrous mortiworth Falon, he finds himself in a maze of death...

In book two, Antoinette must face the Wyrm Lord and the Seven Sleepers in combat in the forest town of Yewland!!!

In book three, Aidan, Robby, and Antoinette must defend the kingdom of Alleble from the Wyrm Lord, Paragor, and The Seven Sleepers. All in all, it turns out Aidan, Robby, and Antoinette are the fabled three Witnesses!! Can they save the kingdom of Alleble from Paragor and his minions, or will Paragor finally have his victory over King Elaim...

Here's a link to the author's blog! The books are written by Wayne Thomas Batson. Here's a link to the actual The Door Within website.

The Kingdom Series

I've started a new series that's called the Kingdom Series by Chuck Black! I finished it in three days only because I couldn't stop reading them, they were so good! It starts of telling the tale of a poor boy named Lenaid who ends up fleeing his town, brought into slavery, tied up in the desert, and fights the evil Moshi Beasts, desert animals that feed on human flesh, but they can't go into water or rain!!! In the end he becomes a hero, but I won't say if he dies or not! I think anyone should read this book should they think it's appropriate. It tells how a young boy places all his faith and trust in one single person! I think all readers that like adventure and action should read this fascinating book!


I loved it, hope you do too!

I've finished the Harry Potter Series!

Today I just finished reading the book Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which was in my schools library! I just realized that now that I've finished the Harry Potter series, I don't know which series I'll tackle just yet, but it will probably be STAR WARS related! The Deathly Hallows is just awesome! Harry Potter comes so close to death, he can actually feel it inside him like a burning ember! In the end, life goes on, but I'm not going to tell you exactly what happened in this awe inspiring,action-packed book! It takes a thrilling turn around page two hundred or so! All I'll say is that Harry discovers that he has a duty to fulfill to beat the Dark Lord once and for all! I highly recommend that Harry Potter fans should get and read this book immediately! I hope you enjoy the Harry Potter series as much as I did!

And also,I finished it in three days,and it's seven hundred eighty-six pages long! I think that every Harry Potter fan out there should read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!

Avada Kedavra!

I Chose An Instrument!!!

Today I went to the Middle School band room to pick my instrument! I was choosing between Trumpet and Saxophone and it took me a couple minutes before I decided I loved the Trumpet, and I could play it really good already! I'll be able to help Mom wake up my brothers for school if they're in a sleeping mood and won't get up! I'll be in the Marching Band in the parade for the Middle School Band(my Dad says its called the JV or something!!)!!!! I know I'll love the Trumpet and that it will be really fun being in the Marching Band and everything!!


Wish me luck with Band!!

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Harry goes back to Hogwarts for his fifth year. It turns out that the Ministry of Magic passes this degree that they get to pick a teacher if the headmaster can't find someone to do it! The Ministry of Magic then gives them Professor Umbrige, an evil old hag who's only goal is to cause as much untrust as possible between Dumbledor(the headmaster of Hogwarts)and Fudge(prime minister of Ministry of Magic!). Then in a turn of events Lord Voldemort and his followers attempt to steal an ancient prophecy that would give Lord Voldemort Harry's strongest weakness which he could use to kill him!!! In the end, the prophecy is accidentally kicked and broken! And a very powerful Death Eater kills Harry's godfather, Sirius Black!(the Death Eater was Sirius's cousin, Bellatrix Black!!!) Harry was facing Sirius's killer when suddenly Dumbledor appeared, along with....Lord Voldemort, the most powerful Dark Arts wizard in the world!!!! Dumbledor(the only wizard Lord Voldemort fears!!)battles Lord Voldemort and forces him to flee along with his army of Death Eaters before security arrives to take them away! Harry and all his friends and Dumbledor survived but had injures(besides Harry and Dumbledor) and had to go to a wizard hospital(St. Mungo's For Magical Maladies and Injures)to recover. In the end Dumbledor confesses that he know the prophecy(I can't type it because I already returned Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and I had never memorized it...)which says that in the end Harry must either kill Lord Voldemort or Voldemort murders Harry(!!!!!)because it foretells in the prophecy that one can live well the other survives!


I have started Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and am on page eighty-one and I have only had for a half a day so far! I'll post about that one soon enough too!!

The Harry Potter Series

I post this in regard to one of my viewers. I have read all the Harry Potter books up to Order of the Phoenix and there all great! In Sorcers Stone, Harry must save a mystical stone from an evil professor who wants to use it to take over the world with its magical abilities! In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry discovers he can speak parsal tongue, an evil dark arts ability which only him and Lord Voldemort can do. Parsel tongue is the language of the snakes, and though it you can talk and control snakes and serpents! In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry discovers that his godfather, a animagus(a wizard that can change into a certain animal!) has been locked away in Azkaban, a wizard prison where creatures called Dementors(evil creatures that suck the happiness right out of you!)patrol like police. In a struggle of life and death, Harry manages to set his godfather, Sirius Black, free! In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry is mysteriously entered in the Triwizard contest, finds that he must defeat a dragon, rescue his friends from evil merpeople, and fight his way through a maze! But Voldemort has an inside source which teleported Harry strait to Lord Voldemort, has to fight a duel to the death against the Dark Lord!!


Well there's the Harry Potter series up to Order of the Phoenix! I still haven't finished Order of the Phoenix, so I can't tell you about that one yet, but i will, you can count on it!!

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Harry Potter and the order of the phoenix has so far been an awesome book with such awesome details and certain sentences that make it very very cool! It starts off with Harry Potter living at his aunt and uncles house(because his parents were both murdered by Lord Voldemort)but all his uncle wants to do is kick him out of the house or send him to an orphanage. His aunt and uncle despise of magic and any little word like wand, magic, broomstick, or wizard. There main gaol is to get rid of him so they can just be normal average people instead of always on alert for something crazy that could come out of nowhere! It is an awe-inspiring book that is a must read for people who like the Harry potter series.

The First Day Of School!

Today was the first day of school for me, and it was awesome! My new teacher Ms. Fay, barely handed out any homework all day! All we got was one assignment were I had to write a letter to Ms. Fay and to write ten things about me that Ms. Fay should know about me! Also one of my old friends from Early Learning Center ended up in my class and were an awesome team! Also I think the way they do lunch at my new school is kind of wacko if you ask me!! And get this... there's twenty-two students in my room for fifth grade! The recess are better because they have an awesome playground there with monkey bars, slides, and all kinds of other cool things! This is going to be a great year in my school memory book!!

We Took A Vacation!

My mom and dad decided it was time to take a short vacation to Wisconsin Dells! We decided to go to Mount Olympus Water and Theme Park!!! Mount Olympus has tons of water slides and pools, and the Theme Park had tons of roller coasters! They had a new wave pool this year called POSEIDON'S RAGE. It has wave generators that can make a killer fifteen foot wave!! And then there's the Theme Park... It's awesome! There's the Roller coasters Zeus, Cyclops, and HADES. Cyclops is OK, and it's got a medium sized drop, but it's not that intense.... then there's Zeus, it's got an excellent drop,very intense,and action packed! And then... There's HADES, THE UNDERGROUND ROLLER COASTER! The first drop is about seventy feet... but then there's the big, one hundred fifty foot drop at sixty degrees down into the underground part of it for one hundred fifty feet when your going seventy miles per hour!!!!!! I only went on it twice early in the morning when there wasn't a line three hundred people long! It was voted the world's best new ride and the nations first ninety degrees turn on a roller coaster! Our vacation was awesome! And if your wondering, they redesigned Mount Olympus in a ancient Greece style!

A Car Blew Out Our Transformer!

Just this morning around eleven a clock an accident just next to my street blew out our electrical transformers for our street! Luckily the power came back on in only about thirty minutes! It was still scary because we heard a car squeal its tires and then there was two loud bangs that sounded like gun shots!!! We heard the accident so we walked over to check it out and it turned out a car had been cut off at an intersection and turned and ran into a telephone pole! The impact dented the telephone pole and knocked something down from it! The accident only took about an hour to clear all the wreckage and things out. The person that had hit the pole wasn't hurt that bad, but he had to go to the hospital anyway to make sure he didn't have any broken bones. The transformer box had been busted right off and was laying under the car! The car had to be towed out because the engine had pretty much been ripped right out of the car!!

My Last Day With My Other Grandma

Today I went to my Grandma's house for the last time this summer while Mom worked. We had tons of fun and because of that I didn't want to part with her, but we had to leave... Either way we had a lot of fun this summer, and I'm sad to say I won't be seeing her much this school year. We played outside on her two acre yard, and we went all over the town she lives in. Like to the ice cream parlor, to go swimming in the lake, going to the store, and to her towns Library. We had tons of fun,but summer break is pretty much over with for this year...

My pets

Here are some photos I took by myself of my pets. I have two gerbils named Action and Dynamite. Action is the lighter colored one.








And this is our black lab, he's twelve years old but he still hasn't lost his spirit! He's my dad's dog because my dad hunts, so naturally he needs a hunting dog! The cool thing is, he's a very gentle and patient dog when it comes to people. In fact, he's never bitten anyone, but for ducks and geese, it's the complete opposite! I managed to get him in one picture when he was licking the sides of his mouth!!!




I'm A Lego Builder!

I love to build things out of Lego's! If you ask me, they're the best things for learning how to build for all ages. I just recently got a huge set of over three thousand Lego pieces!!! I'm working on a submarine, but I'm not quite done yet. So far I still have to build the radar, people, and the equipment! So for the most part, I'm done!

A Visit To The Video Store!

Today me and my family went to the video store to by some new games for my PlayStation 2. We ended up getting one game: STAR WARS: JEDI STARFIGHTER. I haven't tried it out yet but it sounds very cool! I'm sure I'll be getting more games soon. (For now that's the only one I own because I just got the PlayStation!)

A Day With My Grandma

Today my Grandma came over to my house to play with me. We had a lot of fun, even though it did rain most of the time! So we just stayed inside and played card games like Kings Corners, thirty-one, and Uno! I didn't know how to play Kings Corners, so my Grandma had to teach me. It turned out I was really good at Kings Corners from playing so much online Solitaire! Finally, after ten games of thirty-one, fifteen games of Kings Corners, and five games of Uno, my Grandma had to leave...what do you know, time does fly when you're having fun!!

One of my favorite movies


Eragon is an action packed, very exciting movie with a lot of sword play. Even thought it's about dragons and things, it's a good movie, not evil, so don't be afraid!
