A Grand Day for Marching

Well, we marched again yesterday and it was BEAUTIFUL. We marched a mile for the DSU parade and I think we did really good. We also got a lot of praise like from Kaylor and Ethan they thought we did fantastic. I think they also liked the parade because they threw candy. Boy, where my arms tired after that parade, and this time we wore our uniforms. We were still hot though. After that we all just wanted to go home and take a nap. But when I got home instead of taking a nap I got awarded with cleaning out the garage. And everyone pitched in.

It's Raining, It's Pouring

You all know that old song the goes It's Raining, It's Pouring the Old Man is Snoring. Yeah well that is how the rain was when we where marching Thursday. We didn't want to ruin our uniforms so we wore a band shirt and jeans because we thought we were going to march in the gym in Arlington, but instead we march outside. First thing, we wanted to march outside because it was only sprinkling when they told us we were marching outside. Second at about the middle of the parade it started pouring. So there was 150 soaking wet kids in their gym trying to warm up. Oh and I was soaked, but the food was good and we placed 3rd in our ranking. We were only 13 points away from first, and one of the Judges placed us first!!!!! I have to do it again tomorrow in Madison. Wish me luck.

Turkey Dinner, Turkey Dinner

The Turkey dinner this year was a fun one. All the cousins where there and Grandpa was nice enough to buy the grand kids all rings for the ring toss. The games included ring toss, fishpond, the cake walk, the cupcake stroll and bingo. And on bingo I won six bucks on my first game, but I stunk at the rest of the games that I played.The food was OK, but it could have been better. It was quite a big turn out and I hope the next ones are too.

Baby Gerin is Welcomed

My new cousin Gerin just got Baptized. She is also soooo cute. She just kept crying the whole time. Which was fine but it was funny. So when they poured holy water on her head she did stop crying for a little bit. The godparents are My Mom and Dad. And My Aunt and Uncle. Then we went to my grandparents house to hang out with my family. I hope you guys had a great time Joan and Mike!!!!!        P.S. and Gerin (sorry I am so used to just Joan and Mike.)

Another Fun Night At the Andersons

Thanks Andersons for letting Ethan and I hang out before the football game. We had a lot of fun. Playing volleyball was a blast. I know Ethan had fun hanging out with Cole. So thanks again and I hope I can come over again sometime soon.

Flyers Cream Freemen 56-8

The football game last night end 56-8 with the Flyers wining our homecoming game. For the longest time the score was 48-0, but we both got another touchdown before the game ended. As my friends and I watched from the stands we could clearly see the the team was on the toes and ready to win our game for us, and the cheerleaders where doing a great job cheering on the team. Good job guys and GO FLYERS!!!!!

Your Looking at the New Banner Carrier

Yup that's right I am one of the new Chester Area School Banner Carriers. Along with Kacey, I will be marching down the streets of Chester carrying the banner at the end of September. I tried out one week ago and made it. Kacey and I just got our outfit just a couple of hours ago, after school. Our outfits consist of boots with tassels, long skirts, a jacket, an ascot, and a hat with a white feather on it. And the best part is we get to practice with the marching band, but we have to do the homework for that class.I am soooooo excited.

Homecoming Week is Here

Homecoming Week is this week at Chester Area School and this is a crazy week. Monday was Pajama Day and that was a comfortable day,but I just woke up and put a new pair of PJ's on. Yesterday was Hick/Nerd Day and it was a good day. Dressing up in cowboy boots and a hat was so fun. I included a picture of what I looked like on that day. Yesterday night the high schoolers White Washed and they were all tired the next day. Today was grub day and it was also sucker day which it when the cheerleaders hand out suckers for 25 cents.Thursday is class theme day and our theme is Twin Day. My twin is my friend Justice. Friday is Red & White Day which we dress up in red and white to the football team for their game that night against Freemen.

Harvest Hurries

Harvest is almost here! My dad and the cousins just started chopping last night and got done with silage. Now we have to wait a little bit to chop earlage. Then we start combining corn and then beans! Then it will be winter by the time that's all done, oops. I am not supposed to talk about winter until we are done combining. Dad won't let Kaylor give Mom a Halloween bracelet until it is almost Halloween.
