These Busy, Crazy, Fall Days

I have several things that I wanted to post about, so I am just going to cram it all in one post.

Recently our family adopted a kitten from our cousins. Her name was Miss B, but now we call her Iggy Iggs. She is definitely nocturnal. All night she pounces on your face, and all day she naps in your lap. Her sister and two brothers aren't as crazy as her. I could never trade her in for any other cat. She has lots of personality and is totally cool. Sadie LOVES Iggy so much. Sometimes Iggy will get in Sadie's baby doll stroller, and let Sadie push her. That is one brave kitten.

 On Thanksgiving they had some kind of HUGE sale at Goodys and Sara and Ericka wanted to go badly. I decided to tag along just in case I saw something I really loved. There was a really long line and we were late, but we made it. When we walked in, there was a sale on scarves so I got one. I had thought I'd found the perfect boots, but they were barely too small. We waited in line for about 40 minutes when Daddy and Mr. Miles came to pick me up. Daddy was going to let me get an ipad mini. They were on sale for about $40 less than normal. We picked up Ben so he could help me. When we got there there was a long line, and there were only 20 ipad minis in stock. I was the 20th person, but I let the person behind me get that one because it was white and I wanted black.


 A while back our family went to the Agriama for a field trip. The Agriama is a pioneer village that has all of these shops and houses. I really didn't like the fact that we had to wear clothes that were old, dingy, and probably hadn't been washed in forever. Other than that it was really fun. It almost was like a land lost in time. Everyone there was wearing pioneer clothing. I really loved the schoolhouse and the place where you made pancakes.................the pancakes were so good.

 On November first, Tim's soccer team, Thunder, and several other teams had a championship tournament. If they won or lost, their ranking would go up or down. If you lost two games you would be out. First Thunder played Bulls and lost. After that Thunder played a team from a different county and won. The whole day it was COLD. In spite of that Thunder gave it there all. Thunder had to play the Bulls again and it was a tie. They had a shoot off and Tim scored a goal. Thunder won and I felt bad for Lillie, but I was happy for Tim. Thunder had to play the Jaguars, but they had a disadvantage because they had just played a game in the freezing cold. Although they didn't win, they gave it there all, and that is what it is all about.

 Our homeschool group, Harbor Home Educators, decide to make a float to go through the Christmas parade in our county. It turned out AMAZING!!!!!!!! The theme we had to follow was, Christmas stories. We decided to do, "A Pirate's Night Before Christmas". Most of the credit goes to Mr. Miles and Mr. and Mrs. Hicks. Without them we would probably be standing around not knowing what to do.
