More About Sewing....

Today I got done early with school so I patched up Madeline's old sock and 2 of Lainey's stuffed animals. I really like sewing! I am going to try to teach myself more things. Mom has taught me some of the basics. I want to learn things like making patterns!
I had some old pink shorts that were cut out of soft jogging pants. I thought I might reuse them (Again!) for a doll skirt! It was a perfect fit for my American Girl, Kirsten!!!
I am going to try to sew more this weekend.

Have a great weekend!!

Today after lunch I had no school to do. So mom asked me if I wanted to sew up Cooper's chew toy. I was very excited and said yes. I had never really sewed except for the 'Make your own stuffed dog' kits. So mom told me how to do the knots and I quickly got at it. I also sewed up dad's sock.
My mom said before if I want to be a designer, I need to know how to sew. I really want to be a designer!!

Also my friend Hailey started coming to my blog!! I invited Raeley too.

Next weekend (not this weekend.) we are going to visit with my grandmother in Nashville! She said we might be able to go to Build-A-Bear!! I have been to Build-A-Bear one before. I built an adorable stuffed monkey!!

We are going to start looking for a new computer! This one has not been working properly since it crashed. The speakers not working is one of the reasons.

Last night my mom was going to a Bible Study. Right before she left she asked me if I wanted to go to the 7th and 8th grade youth group. I said yes and hurried to get ready. It was really fun!!
I am going to go to it every Wednesday.

Hope you all have a good school day tomorrow!!

My Weekend and the Naming of my Webkinz....

This weekend was so much fun! We shopped, played on the computer, and ate all the delicious things Grandmother brought us!!
Friday Madeline and I got our turn to shop. We had so much fun! We got several new outfits. I didn't have any new shoes though because my feet are hard to buy for. My feet are narrow and I wear a 7-8. So Friday I didn't get any shoes. But then before Grandmother left on Saturday, we went shoe shopping again. Finally I got 2 pairs.
Anyway now to the Webkinz. It took me until about Friday to decide. I loved Alaina's suggestion about Milly. I also loved Abigail's suggestion of Molly. So I have decided on the name. It's....... Milly-Molly! Isn't it cute??! But I loved the name Ellia, so on Webkinz.com, my elephant's name is Ellia. Milly-Molly. I love it! Thanks for the help everyone!

I hope everyone had a good weekend! Good luck this week with school!!

I Got A Webkinz!!!

We were gonna go shopping tomorrow but this morning we went to Cracker Barrel for breakfast so we decided to go while we are out there. We shopped for Lainey and Luke today. Tomorrow is Madeline and I get our turn to shop!
Well anyway we went to Limited Too to see if they had Webkinz. They did but not an elephant. It had an adorable monkey(which I almost got) and a hippo that I loved. Madeline LOVED the cheetah. Since they didn't have an elephant we went to Hallmark. The elephant was the first thing I saw! Madeline got the cheetah and I got the elephant.

So we went on Webkinz.com and played for a little while. But when I got off I thought of something. THE NAME!! I can't thing of a name. I already have an elephant named Ellie.

Please leave a comment saying which name you like. I really can't thing of any. I really am open to any suggestions. I have thought of Ellia, but I don't know.

Now here's a picture of my elephant.

I love elephants! They are my favorite animals!

Deserted island questions.....

If I were on a deserted island what food would I take? I have thought about this and I think that I've decided. Jello would be really good! When I'm sick or have had surgery I eat Jello for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!



Besides water what drink would I take? That question is easy- Sprite! I love Sprite! When I'm sick or have had surgery I drink Sprite! Jello and Sprite!



Which pet would I take? Ella would kill the mice, snakes, and lizards. Cooper would defend me from any other danger. But I would take Ella. She sleeps with me at night and I pet her until I fall asleep. I love her alot!



Which family member would I take? I don't think I can answer that question. I would hate to be away from any of them!



Which three things would I take? My TV(for the weather), my computer(to Email somebody and blog!), and my bed(Kind of silly but it would keep my warm, and I could hide under the covers!).

If I could only bring one outfit which one would I take? Probably sweat pants or jeans and a T-shirt.

Feel free to answer these questions on your blog!

My weekend

We have several things we are going to do this week. First of all this week we are off from school! Tomorrow we have to go to Piano lessons. Our Grandmother is coming sometime this week too. She lives in Nashville. I can't wait for her to be here!
It rained all weekend, so we didn't swim. We stayed inside most of the weekend.
This weekend I also went to a sleepover. That was fun!
Hope you all had a good weekend!

4 more months until Christmas!

Can you believe it? It seemed like only last month was Christmas!! It's going to be Christmas before you know it!!
This summer has gone by fast!! I don't think I'm ready for the cold weather! I want to be able to swim! It starts getting cold here in October. The weather here in the winter gets to 20 degrees but in the summer it gets over 100! It never snows though here. We might get a little but not enough to play in!

*UPDATE* Sorry it's only 4 months until Christmas. It's going to be 3 months at the end of this month!

My room...

I got new sheets, comforters, a canopy, and pillows for my room last Christmas. Then my parents gave my room a makeover on New year's. It looks great
The girls' beds.

My bed.

Movies I have seen this summer

Here are some movies I saw this summer.

Ratatouille: A good movie! I liked it alot.

Shrek 3: I don't think it was as good as the 2nd one, but it was okay.

Spiderman 3: Great! I loved it! My whole family watched it. Even my almost 3 year old brother.

High School Musical 2: I loved it!! I think it was better than the first one! And they are making a 3rd and 4th!

Those were some great movies!

Ella and Cooper

I have a cat, Ella and a dog,Cooper. They are the cutest things!


Ella we have had for about 3 1/2 years. She is the BEST cat we have ever had! We have had 4 cats. She likes to sleep on our beds and on the rocking chair. She loves to hunt rats, snakes, birds, and squirrels! It's disgusting!

Cooper is a Boxer dog. We have had him for 2 months. It took us FOREVER to decide on his name! We thought we had the perfect name and called him that for a day. Then some one would decide they didn't like it. He knows several tricks including sit,stay, rollover, guess which hand( we would put a treat in our hand and close it and he would paw the right hand),beg, speak, shake, come, and more! He is really smart!

A strange thing that happened to me....

I have a beautiful necklace with a heart charm on it. I got it a couple of months ago, and I never wore it. Well last Sunday I got ready to wear it, and I couldn't find it! So I searched all day with no luck and went to bed. When I woke up I had the necklace IN MY HAND!! I thought that was really weird, and my sisters were freaked out, but I'm glad to have it back. Now I never take it off! It's really pretty!

My Elephant, Ellie

This is my adorable stuffed animal Ellie! I sleep with her every night! I got her at a museum about 2 years ago. She was a puppet but I cut the strings off! I wanted to play with her.
Isn't she adorable? She is one of my favorite stuffed animals!

My First Post

This is my first blog! I have always wanted one! I have been reading blogs forever, begging my mom for one. Then finally she said yes! I am going to write in this blog about: school, my life, my family, etc. I'm probably going to post a couple of times a week, when I'm done with school. I usually finish school around 1:30-2:00 and I get started at about 8:30. Now I'm going to figure out some of the other things that I need to do on my blog!
