Well, it's the beginning of a new year . . . 2011. I figured I would start the year with a new post. Since my birthday, I have gotten my iTouch, fixed my laptop for wireless, and celebrated Christmas and New Year's Eve.
For Christmas, Mom and Dad got us a new game called Carcassone. It is a game of strategy where you lay tiles and little wooden followers (Meoples to us) as different jobs to get the most points. Since then, we have gotten another expansion (they gave us two with the original game). We all enjoy it and love playing. We also got a Wii game called Petz sports. On it, I have adopted a Beagle named Hunter and I am training him to be the fasted dog in the game.
Last night, Ethan, Dad, and I all spent at our friends' house until 1:20 or so. The other two and Mom stayed home as Evyn and Amber are sick. They are on the upswing though, so that a good thing.
The next big thing we are doing is our trip to Grandma's over in Idaho. They are having snow, so we will be able to enjoy some this winter. We will be getting up at 2:00 a.m. to get ready to leave since we need to get Dad to the SeaTac airport for his flight to Texas, and then from there we go to Grandma's for a week. Dad will be meeting us there about midweek.
Another big thing I did, before I forget to write it down is that I got my signaling merit badge yesterday. I managed to get it the day before it went away, as it was a centennial merit badge. That means I got all of the centennial badges and ribbons by the seat of my pants, as Mom put it.
When people do stuff like that where they just barely get what they need, my mom says they fly by the seat of their pants... I think she got the quote a little bit wrong but I don't know...
