Friday, we thought we would do a brunch! We had pancakes, sausage, and coffee. I was super hungry by the time we ate, so I devoured my food. Our reason for the brunch was to celebrate autumn.<br />

<br />
We were also celebrating by carving pumpkins. We got the pumpkins from our friendly neighbors who have a pumpkin patch. We bought a pumpkin carving set, so we were able to carve some pretty creative designs.<br />

My brothers did a traditional Jack-O-Lantern face. Abigail did Sponge Bob (which is super epic!). Mum and I did a Tardis, because we're crazy Doctor Who fans (actually, my whole family is).<br />

My mum was busy in the kitchen baking pumpkin pies, roasting pumpkin seeds, and she even made pumpkin bread pudding (which is my dad's favorite dessert).

What girls? My mom, my sister (Abigail) and me! This will be our third Girl's Night Out!<br /><br />We'll probably eat out (it will be a weird time to eat, but we plan to snack all night!), and then go check in the hotel at about 3:30.<br /><br />For snacks, we'll probably get some chips and candy, cheesy pretzels (Mom's favorite), and bottles of water.<br /><br />Our favorite thing to do while at the hotel is watch TV! We don't have many channels at home, so we love to watch cooking, decorating, and fashion (Say Yes To the Dress).<br /><br />At some point in the evening, we'll leave on a Starbucks run, and then go back for more TV!<br /><br />It's a very relaxing time!<br /><br />I'll post pictures when we're back!Cecily Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13463309081492023569noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642587598226404056.post-1441733575194603112010-05-13T15:02:00.000-07:002010-05-14T12:54:16.029-07:00Thunder StormsWe have had a lot of thunder storms. The lights went off when we were watching American Idol. It was not fun because every time the lights went off my brothers started to scream their faces off. They were going nuts running around the room being spastic!<br /><br />The storms went through quickly and didn't do any damage. I wish I didn't have any fear of thunder storms. but I do. My mom and my sister love thunder storms. My mom goes outside when thunder storms start to strike. Isn't that nuts?<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg57/impickles/Storm.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></center>Cecily Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13463309081492023569noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642587598226404056.post-48288540555579856902010-02-02T12:41:00.000-08:002010-02-11T13:50:03.509-08:00Farm Life is So Much Fun<div>I love life with my parents and my brothers and sister. They are so cool to hang out with. We have a dog named Truman. He is such a good dog. He is so cute too! We live in an old farm house on 5 acres. We have an old barn that my mom uses a lot as a background for pictures. It's a little bit scary though because it's old and has some rotted wood. We aren't allowed to go in there unless we're looking for something in particular.</div><div><br /></div><div>My mom is the best mom in the whole wide world. She is fun to hang out with too. Sometimes we go out alone and have a blast. She is such a good cook. I love her food! I think my favorite thing she makes is homemade cinnamon rolls. I also love when she makes freshly squeezed lemonade. It makes me wish warm weather would get here.</div><div><br /></div><div>We have big 15 passenger van. It is huge! It's always messy. My little brothers trash it. </div><div><br /></div><div>One place we drive our van to is to our little church. We have church at the Salvation Army campground. I love church. It's such fun hanging out with friends there. We have about 8 families at our church. </div><div><br /></div><div>We are so very blessed to have a God that saved us and cares about us. I've been a christian for about 5 years. I'm very happy that Christ saved me. I wouldn't be anything without him. I'm so thankful that he gave me my family. They are so precious to me. </div><div><br /></div><div>Life isn't always so great. I have such a hard time with school, but I love my teacher (my mom) and she helps me so much. School's always been hard for me, but with God's help, I'll get through it.</div><div><br /></div><div>Well, there's a little about me and my life. </div><div><br /></div><div>God bless!</div>Cecily Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13463309081492023569noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642587598226404056.post-84520482294126837682010-01-20T12:59:00.000-08:002010-02-02T12:39:28.661-08:00Cecily Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13463309081492023569noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642587598226404056.post-75344732637367079422010-01-12T13:51:00.000-08:002010-02-01T06:43:53.063-08:00California Vacation in Alphabet FormatA- Ate fish<div>B- Became a beach bum</div><div>C- California!!!</div><div>D- Disneyland</div><div>E- Eating - Lots and lots of fun food!</div><div>F- Fifteen passenger van was packed</div><div>G-Grandma and Grandpa came with us</div><div>H-Hollywood</div><div>I- Indiana Jones ride my favorite!</div><div>J- Jack Sparrow - the new POtC character</div><div>K- Kodak theater - we saw it in Hollywood </div><div>L- Los Angeles was crazy</div><div>N- Night time fireworks at Disneyland</div><div>O- Oranges in the backyard </div><div>P- Pirates of the Caribbean </div><div>Q- Queasy in the car</div><div>R- Rides - lots of rides </div><div>S- Starbucks</div><div>T- Time to eat - again.</div><div>U- Uh I can't thank of anything </div><div>V- Vacation</div><div>W-Watched a lot of movies at the house</div><div>X- Xylitol - That has nothing to do with vacation - but there are only so many x words.</div><div>Y- Yawning after a long day</div><div>Z- Zilch comes to mind</div>Cecily Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13463309081492023569noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642587598226404056.post-42606428510232529972009-10-21T11:50:00.000-07:002009-10-22T16:20:47.179-07:00I cant wait for Christmas.I can't wait for Christmas.
