Christmas is almost here! I am so excited; especially because Ashley is
coming out to visit. :) It's my oldest sister’s birthday next week. They turn
nineteen! It makes them want to sing that song from the prince frog, "I'm
nineteen, I'm nineteen my birthday is today...." etc. (I don't know if I
got that right, oh well). I seriously can't believe that they are turning
nineteen! My older sisters! Gah... It is crazy. I will never get over this.
Every year, and next year they turn twenty! Dang it, I'm doing it again aren’t
I? Well their birthday just happens to be one week before Christmas, exactly.
Their birthday is on the eighteenth.
A little random thought in here, and a little late too. That wind storm like last week was crazy! I'm lucky that my house didn't have any damage and that my family is all OK, but others weren't so lucky. That morning school wasn't canceled. So at 7:45 I got on the bus and headed to school. The whole trip there I saw all kinds of disaster, shingles flying off of roofs, fences falling over, and trash flying through the air. It was crazy, and then as soon as we got to school (there was no power of course) we were told to go to our lockers, and drop everything off except for a book, and then go to the gym. A little while later we went to our first period classes. We ended up staying there for a few hours without power until they officially told us that we could go home. The wind was so strong that doors were breaking; they had to lock them so they wouldn't break anymore. There was this one dude who was trying so hard to get inside, got the door open, and then it shut on him. Ouch huh. The principal had to come get him unstuck. I have no idea who this dude was. When we were sitting in first period in the dark everyone had their cell phones out. I got bored playing with mine, and didn't want to kill the batteries, so I went over to the window. Right outside the window you can see the seminary building. In front of our seminary building is this big tree. When I looked out that window the tree was completely snapped at the trunk. No roots torn up or anything just snapped. Also, when I looked out that window I could see the houses across the street, they weren't just loosing shingles. They were losing huge chunks of their roofs! It's so sad all the damage that was caused that day. All of the pine trees that fell down, among other trees. The property damage, everything. I hope that we never have anything like that happen again! Well back to the happier subject...
The thing I love the most about Christmas, well, mostly Christmas eve, is that me and my sisters all get together and sleep in the rooms in the basement, like a sleep over. I am so glad that I have my family, and I am so glad that my sisters and I are so close. :)
