I Have No Creative Title For this Post


So today we  watched Inkheart. I can't make it any clearer than that. Overall I think it was a pretty good movie and very enjoyable. Though Mom and Peter, who have read the book noticed the mistakes made (which was quite a twist because I am always the one pointing out mistakes). 

We are all having a great summer so far! My aunt, uncle, and cousin are coming soon. YES!

Swimming, Biking, and a Sunburn! Life's Good!


Yesterday, while Laura was home sick, the Actons took us to a swimming party! It was a ton of fun and the water was WARM. We all had a great time. I think one of the best parts was the drive home. We had a great time talking with each other. At one point we were trying to convince Sister Acton to let us stay at a hotel. Later we wanted to take a tour of the US and Canada. We drove over a bridge with holes in it, and after we got off it yelled at passing cars that we had lived. 

Today we went bike riding for TWO WHOLE HOURS in the rain and sun. It was a lot of fun. 

As most of you know I am prone to sunburns. Today I added to my sunburn. Now my skin is RED. Because I can't use a lot of lotions or sunscreens I can't put most things on my skin. So I am enjoying being red. You don't have to pity me, though.

Logging off.


Happy, Happy, Happy, HAPPY!

 Ignore my grammar. I can't believe it. 

If you have been listening you know that I love a certain book called Skeleton Creek. I am also eagerly awaiting the next book. And guess what! The cover is out!



How is that for an awesome cover?

I still don't know the release date. I think it is either October 1st or September 10th.  Let me tell you now before you go banning this book (sorry if you weren't planning to ban the book) just because this is part of a series with the word "skeleton" in its name does not mean it is a ghost story. It is a great book and I suggest that you read it. Though I do suggest you look at my other post or google the book, because it is not you average book...

I LOVE GIRL'S CAMP!!!! And I'm Not Even 12


My Mom went to girl's camp to lead/help/who knows what- the first years. For those of you who do not know what Girl's Camp is, I'll tell. It is a four day camping trip for girls 12 to 18 (I think). Notice I am not twelve until November. So then why do I love this experience? I get to make lost and lots of desserts and we get to eat them. 

I must tell you of a large mistake I made. I was planning to make some cupcakes and a cake. I can't explain it all, but I'll try. The oven was accidentally turned off and only half the cake was baked. The other half was batter. I had pieces of cake and battery crumble. While I was working with the cake the cupcakes sort of burnt. We all liked the treats though. Now you know how desperate we are for desserts.

I have a challenge for you. Read 462 pages in less than one day. I did it. Much to my sleep's dismay, mind you. If you beat that let me know. You'll have bragging rights for forever.

Someone Tell the World: The Sky Is Falling!!!!!!


I practiced piano WITHOUT COMPLAINING for TWO WHOLE WEEKS. This is bad, horrible, chaotic, and just about every horrible thing in the world. I don't like practicing piano. Though I do enjoy learning songs that I enjoy.





Guess what! Guess what! Guess what! Guess what! The fifth season of The Next Food Network Star is on. Just about everyone is very excited. Last year we watched it because one of the contestants, Kelsey Nixon, was LDS. We had a great time, but it is a very suspenseful though. I would suggest watching it. 

Well I must log off. Watch the show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
