Thanksgiving

Hello folks. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Though, I imagine the people in other countries that don't celebrate it didn't have one;) I hope they're thankful anyway:)
Ours was lovely! We spent the day at Memaw and Grandpa's and I spent the whole time playing with my little 8 year old cousin Randi Michelle, which was a blast! She's such a cutie:)
Of course, no one in my family likes to have their pictures taken so I can't put up any pictures except of her and me. Mommy took a few pictures of Chris, but he wouldn't want me to put them up here, so I shan't. (This is why there are only pictures of myself and not my Mommy or brothers. My Daddy doesn't really mind too much;)).

We also put up and decorated their Christmas tree, so here are a couple of pictures of it:



Randi Michelle and me:)

And again.



Just Randi:)

Probably my favorite picture we took :) Grandpa, me, and Randi Michelle.

One more of Randi Michelle and me (with Grandpa in the background).


My Punkin Cheesecake!

Mommy's Sweet Tater Casserole without pecans.

Mommy's Sweet Tater Casserole with pecans. (She always has to make two because Daddy doesn't like pecans).

Now onto something else:
One of my favorite bands is Family Force 5. Well, today one of the members 'Fatty' was rushed to the hospital with kidney problems. His brother, 'Soul Glow Activatur' has been updating his Twitter all day and Fatty is doing a little better, but I would like you all to keep Fatty (who's real name is Joshua Olds; and Soul Glow's real name is Solomon Olds) in your prayers please. Thanks.

Good night or good morning or good evening or good whatever, depending upon where you live!

Grace be with you all!

Happy Birthday, Becca Barlow!!

Yes, my friends, it's true, this is yet another Birthday post.
Miss Rebecca Barlow (Barlow Girl) turns 30 today!!!! Sheesh! LOL!
Unfortunately, I don't really know what to say about her because she seems kind of quiet and such so I don't know much about her.
However, she's the oldest sister in the Christian all girl band, Barlow Girl, she seems like a nice person, lol;) Nah, she is sweet, I'm sure. I don't think she sings much on their songs but she does have a sweet voice. She plays the guitar and that's all I can think of about the girl. Oh, wait, her favorite book of the Bible is Ecclesiastes. How do I know that? Because I asked her once, LOL! A few years ago they were on this Christian radio show called Total Axxess and Mommy called in for me to talk to them. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life (if you could hear it, you'd understand;) yes, it's true we recorded it on cassette tape;)), anyway, I asked the girls what their favorite book of the Bible was, just barely, 'cause I couldn't breathe very well, haha!
Anyway, let us now get to the picture part:










Happy Birthday, Miss Becca!
I know that wasn't much of a Birthday post, but there's only so much one can say about a person they don't know, lol!

Grace be with you all!

Yesterday was one of my bff's 17th Birthday! Happy Birthday, Katie!!!!!!!!!! Let's see, what can I find for her:

I can't believe I'm putting a picture of these people on here, but one of her favorite bands is the Jonas Brothers, so here's a *gulp*...a....*gulp*...picture.....of....'em:

(Sorry, Katie, I can't hardly stand to have that on my blog, LOL, but this is for you m'dear!).

Okie doke, her favorite color is pink and she and I have this little 'heart' thing going at the end of our messages to each other, so I thought this would be perfect:



Here's a pretty pink cake for you, hun! Happy belated Birthday, Katie!!! Love you!

Now for the other Birthday person :)
Mr. Luis Carlos Almeida da Cunha....or, Nani:)

Woohoo, Nani is 23 today!! Happy Birthday, Nani! Yeah, so I don't know him and in no way think he will visit my blog, but I wanted to wish him a Happy Birthday anyway. Nani plays for Manchester United....for now:'( (There's talk of him leaving soon, that makes me sad). He plays on the wing. He's Portuguese. Yeah, so I don't know much at all about the fella, but he's one of my VERY favorite Football players. He was believed to be the next Cristiano Ronaldo (for those of you that don't what or who I'm talking about...well, I don't know....just read on), but alas, he didn't have a very good season last year, and isn't really having a good one this season:( I just know he'll do better! But, ya know, who am I? No one's gonna listen to me when I say he should stay at United. I want him to stay, but it's not lookin' likely:( K, so yeah, I really like him and know he'll do better...no matter where he plays. Here are some pictures of him:)




I don't remember who that Arsenal player is behind him.

Doing his 'famous' celebration after he scored a goal:)

Here he is in the Portugal National Football team kit.



Here he is doing is celebration. Yeah, umm, don't pay attention to what the bottom of the video says. I mean don't click on it. I doubt it's trashy, but just don't click anyway, just incase. This is just to see him:)



A Manchester United Birthday cake! Happy Birthday, Nani!!!!!!!

Goodnight folks....or good morning...or good whatever...depending upon where you live!

Buh-bye....fare-thee-well...Au-Revior....Adeus...and all those other 'goodbyes' in different languages!!!!!!

The Best Brothers Ever!

Howdy there, y'all!
I thought I would share a little bit of information about my brothers, as Tommy's Birthday was October 16th and Chris' was yesterday.
First of all, let me start off by saying, they are the BEST brothers in the whole world and I love 'em sooooo much!
Now, I can't really do them one at a time, seeing as there's a lot about them that is the same, so we'll just see how all this comes out.
They're very protective of me and have never, ever been mean to me. Growing up, we always enjoyed being together and playing little games together. To this day, we enjoy being together, even though Tommy is 25, Chris is 23, and I'm 19. They're two of my very best friends.
Tommy moved out last year and so I like to text him sometimes and enjoy talking to him on the phone. He doesn't mind when I text him either, indeed I think he likes it:)
Both of them can comfort quite well. They're strong, but gentle when they need to be.
One thing about Chris is that he's always liked holding my hand (for some reason, my hands have always been soft and warm, even though I don't do anything to them). If he and I are sitting next to each other watching something or whatever, he has to hold my hand.
Several years ago, I fell and broke my ankle. When we were at the hospital waiting to get my X-Rays, I had to sit in a wheelchair, of course, and then Chris was sitting next to me in a different chair, of course, and he held my hand. What other brother would hold his sister's hand?? Especially, out in public???!!!!
When Mommy and I are hurting or whatever, it hurts Chris so much, that sometimes he cries with us and he holds us. Tommy isn't really like that, he just holds us. It's not that Chris is weak or anything because he is very strong (as is Tommy), he's just different when it comes to things like that.
When Chris had his seizures, Tommy was the strong one. The rest of us were a mess and Tommy was the one saying, "It's ok" and all that. I obviously didn't know what was going on when I had mine, but I know that Chris cried with me and both he and Tommy were helping Mommy and Daddy.
Both of my boys (that's what I call them. Daddy is 'my boy' too:)) are gentlemen.
One time, a few years ago, Mommy, Daddy, Chris, and I were going into a little convenient store to get some snacks and there were these two guys outside arguing and cursing. Chris stood out there for a moment, telling the guys to watch their language because there were ladies around, he didn't say it calmly either. I heard one of the guys apologize and I thought, "Yep, that's my Chris".
They're always opening the door for Mommy and me, and keeping it open for any other lady that might come along. Anytime Mommy or I might drop something, if Chris is around he'll pick it up for us real quick, without giving us a chance.
Tommy and I are alike in many ways, but Mommy calls Chris and me her 'twins' sometimes because we're so much alike. There have been times when he and I say the same thing at the exact same time, sometimes all we have to do is look at each other and we know what the other is thinking about something. Someone can say something and he and I will look at each other because something we've thought or said before we're both thinking about it. We both like almost the same of everything. If one of us are down or having a bad day, we need only spend a little while together and we can make the other happy. If one of us have a headache or aren't feeling well, once again, we need only a little while together and even though we still might not feel well, we make the other one feel better. We love spending time together and dream about going to England, Italy, and Spain together to see Football games. It's not enough that we're both alike in so many ways, we both have Epilepsy!
Chris always says that Tommy and I have 'the cool factor', LOL! Chris is cool too though;)
When Tommy lived here, sometimes he would have to take me to the grocery store and we had fun just doing that. He would push the cart and pop it up on it's back wheels and push it around like that, LOL! Now, when Mommy, Chris, and I go out to go to the store or whatever, Chris will sometimes come in with me and we have fun too:)
So, you see, no matter what the three of us are doing together, even the littlest thing, we have fun together. We also know each other quite well, having been homeschooled for most of our schooling and spending so much time together.
The three of us also love all the old-fashioned ways (we get that from Mommy), though we do appreciate computers and iPods. Chris isn't a phone talker at all, but phones are a good thing;)
I would post a picture of my brothers, but they don't want me to, so I'm not gonna.
Yes, so I have the best brothers in the whole entire universe and I am so thankful for them! My life wouldn't be the same without 'em:)

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAYS TOMMY & CHRIS!!!!!!!
Love you both soooooo much!!!!!!

Grace be with you all!
