• George Washington's book of rules ( i wanted this when we were in Philidalphia)




• Nintendo DS




• 2 DS games

• "Camp Rock" shorts




• Mickey Mouse hat




• Ipod Shuffle case

Those are just some of the many things that I got for Christmas. I wish Christmas was every day, not just Dec. 25.

Mylie and I each got a Nintendo DS this year, (sophie had got hers last year) so after openening all the presents, we all plopped ourselved down on the couch and started playing them. Sophie got the Star Wars DS game she had been begging for, and Mylie got the game, Mario Party, to go along with her DS. I got 2 games. My Sims Kingdom, and Battleship, Sorry, Trouble, and Connect Four, all in one game. It totally rocked!! Merry Christmas everyone!!!

2 More Days!!

Eeek! I am so excited for Christmas! I can't believe that it's only 2 days away!!!! I have some awesome presents for my sisters, parents, and cousins. I am super excited for X-Mas Eve too! Each year, my family goes over to my Aunt and Uncle's house, and we open 1 present before Christmas. It is really cool. And my uncle is a pastor, so of course we go to their Christmas Eve service. It is really fun to do and I'm excited to do it this year. Anyway, over the weekend, my family went up to Frankenmuth with my grandparents and cousins on my Dad's side. We all had a seperate cabin, and we visited each other daily. On the second day that we were there, we all went over to my granparents cabin and opened tons of presents. I really enjoyed it.

As you can see, we all look very happy. Sophie was ecstatic about her brand new 'Tommy Hilfiger' hat. Later that day, we went to the Crossroads Village and walked around there. We saw a magic show, looked in shops, and best of all, we met Mr. Santa Claus himself.

After Crossroads Village, we went to Zehnders, the best Frankenmuth resteraunt EVER!! And a Merry Christmas to Carson, the new Bettis family member.

Anyway, 2 MORE DAYS TILL CHRISTMAS!!!!!!! Hope you have a good one.

5th Grade Camp

5th grade camp was so fun!! I just got back yesterday, and already I miss it!! The counselors were so funny and sweet. There was Ezra, Kelsy, Kate, Josh, Carla, and Justin. Some of the High School counselors were John, Lucky, Drew, Stacy, Morgan, Carra, and a lot others. John looked exactly like Nick Jonas, and a lot of girls were getting his autograph. I was one of them. The autograph is hanging on my bulletin board right now!! Anyway, I really miss camp. These are some of my favorite things that we did there.

1. Rock Wall (i reached the top!!)
