So this year we got the chance to go to the Dixie Stampede! It was really fun. There are two sides of the arena which are called the North Pole and the South Pole. The different poles were rivals and during the show there were competitions between the sides. We were the south pole and very loudly cheered when we were called to. The south pole won at the end of the competition. So I was happy.
We definitely screamed---a I mean cheered for our side. ;). It was hard to eat and watch at the same time though. I got to see lots of gorgeous horses including a Friesian which is one of my favorite breeds. It was fun. We also went to the Springfield Little Theater to see the Nutcracker. The boys weren't particularly interested in that, but it was really neat. The music was beautiful although not live and the ballet was fun to watch. The costumes were also beautiful. Well I think that is most of it. I am sick of sweets-well kind of ;)-and I am tired from late getting to bed. Well that is Christmas. New Years Eve is coming up!

Lydia, Babysitting antics 3
Well, I haven't written lately. In the past times of babysitting, I listened to Rebekah read "Misty of Chincoteague". That was fun. I like listening and helping children read. She usually gets really tired while she is reading. I can't tell if she likes to read or not. Maybe she just doesn't like to read out loud. Any way last time we made Christmas trees. We got a waffle cone and then they iced it with green frosting. They turned it upside down, put some red and green m&ms for ornaments and voila! There was a beautiful Christmas tree! It was fun. Clara is so funny. She was arguing with Miss Christina and Miss C. said, "Clara, stop arguing with me!" Then Clara said, "I'm not arguing!" Totally disproving her point :). I think that is mainly it. Oh, and that it was FREEZING walking there! :). Any way I will post again when I have collected up enough things.

Celina, TUESDAY
Well I am sitting on my bed all nice and cozy waiting for my online class to start. I have Science this morning which is fun! I LOVE my Science teacher she is a blast, sometimes she will have us stand up and do things while she is describing things :). Not really sure what I am wanting to post about today, but I will figure it out!!
My mom has been buying me a lot of new skirts and things recently because all of mine are getting too short :( but I have got quite a few new skirts and things and that is always fun. We have decided that whenever I need new clothes mom just needs to go out and buy me some when I am not with her. I never find clothes that I want, but when mom goes she just gets me a bunch of clothes. When she gets done of course I love them all (who doesn't love getting a whole lot of new clothes!).
Today is TUESDAY!!!! On Tuesdays I have Science and History class. After class I go to piano and then to Lydia's house to do a Photography class. After we snap a bunch of pictures and pretend like we are doing something productive we usually play Nancy Drew. Around four Lydia has to walk to the Day-Care near bye to help for and hour or less. After she gets back we usually have dinner (always something super duper yummy!) Then we leave for Square dancing. Which starts at 7:00 I think and it ends at 9:00 or 9:30 so I get home late but what ever! It is the best day of the week! I live for Tuesdays!!!!! The B. family is a whole lot of fun, and Lydia and I have gotten a lot closer. THANKS LYDIA for making my Tuesdays ROCK!! :) So Lydia what do you think of me bringing stuff to make Chocolate chip cookies? We could make them after Photo. (we could eat a little bit of the cookie dough :P) Just tell me if you think that would be fun and I will bring some stuff!
Well that is all I can think of for today so over and out!
