My Weekend

This is what has happened in my life this weekend.

Tuesday and Thursday were the final concerts for orchestra. I am sad. All of my classes that performed were on Thursday.

After the Thursday performance, we three older kids went putt-putt golfing with some of our friends from our orchestras and choirs that performed that night. I had a fun time though. Got to hang out with friends for pretty much the last time. We got there around 9. We didn’t leave until about 11:30. I know, three hours. It was almost one by the time we had dropped of two of our friends that came with us that we got to go home. It was a little after one when we went to bed.

You can go on you tube and watch some videos of the choirs and orchestras playing.

Friday was, let us say, different. Without going to orchestra on Fridays is going to take some getting used to. That night the whole family went to our church music practice, and then we went to Pizza Hut for dinner. After that, we went home. That night, around 8:30/9, Kara, Maddie, Emi, and I all decided that we would watch a move. It was “Far and Away.” It is a Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman movie made in 1992. I would defiantly NOT recommend it if you freak out about blood. So it was 11:30 by the time the movie was over.

Saturday, I went to a horse clinic over at one of our friends’ house, the S’s. I had a great time!! I learned a lot. I also helped them by going on some tours to see the baby foals. While I was opening gates I was looking for what I would “like” to get if I could get a horse. I got a nice sun-burn from doing that.

Saturday was also Becca’s 11th birthday.

Yesterday went on like a normal Sunday.

Today, really nothing to tell. Oh, we opened our pool yesterday. So it will be a matter of days before I will attempt to get in. Although the kids were talking about getting in today. My parents are actually thinking about letting them. Crazy people.

Well, I think that is it for now.

Weekends at Home Without Parents

This weekend is and has been a little different than usual.

For starters, as the title states, my parents are gone this weekend. My dad had a business trip/convention this weekend. My mom just tagged along just for the fun of it. I guess. They won’t be back till Tuesday. So hopefully they will come back to a house that has the four younger ones in it! *evil laugh and smirk just for you Mom*

So yesterday and today my grandparents came down to help watch the kids while us older kids were in class at orchestra. It was great to not have to worry about where the kids were. Especially Luke. If you know him, you will know what I mean. My grandparents brought my baby cousin with them. It was fun to have her with us!

This past year, as some of you know, in my orchestra theory class we have been composing our own music. I might be able to record my favorites and put them on here. Hopefully I can figure out how to do that……….. *uneasy face*

I think that is it for now.
