Wednesday: I slept in until 11:00, and then watched 5 episodes of Lost. It was pure bliss.

Thursday: Happy Thanksgiving!!! I slept in until 10:00, and then watched some of the parade. I was pretty upset when I missed tap dancing Daniel Radcliffe, but Scotty McCreery messing up his lip-syncing made up for it. After that, we all headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Bingham's for Thanksgiving dinner. Uncle Adam and Aislynn, Bailey, and Cecely were in town from California. Aunt Trina, Devonney, and their three new foster kids weren't able to come. We missed them a lot. Aunt Melanie was also here. Aunt Deni, Uncle Shawn and Makenzie, and Aunt Shawnette, Uncle Stan, and Karina and Marin all came down from up north. Uncle Eric, Michael, Brandon, and Mikaylah were here too. I had a blast helping the girls make pine cone turkeys out of felt, pipe cleaners, and obviously pine cones... Lunch was delicious. We all ate plenty of turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, yams (okay, I didn't eat the yams... I've never liked them), rolls, and pie. Mom also makes this delicious frozen cranberry salad thing. It's divine. Anyways, after dinner Phoebe and I went to Walgreens and rented Pirates of the Caribbean 4 from redbox. We had a lovely time watching the movie and staring at attractive missionaries together. It was great. After that, everyone came over and we all indulged in a little rockband. Then everyone went to bed. Overall it was a really great day, and I was reminded of how truly blessed I am.

Friday: Black Friday didn't happen for me. Phoebe tried to go, but it failed for her too. The sales at the mall weren't what she expected them to be, which is why I'm glad that I slept in until 10:00 instead of trying to go with her (can you see a pattern here?). After I woke up, mom and I decided to try a new exercise video that Aunt Mel gave us. It was KILLER. I'm still sore from it. But, it was good to get my first exercise in a couple months... (you think I'm kidding, don't you?) Around 4:00, Livi (remember her?) picked me up. She, her friend Michele, Michele's friend Kevin, and I all drove up to Salt Lake for the Temple Square lighting ceremony. we ate at Rumbi's (delicious), and then went to see the lights. It was so beautiful! Going up every year is one of my favorite thing to do, and it was so fun to be able to go with Liv. I love her loads! :) Anyway, here's a picture...

Saturday: Slept in until 10:00. Again. Then I cleaned the bathroom. It was great! After that, me and the fam (except for Phoebe, she was with a friend) went to Trafalga in Lehi. We went on rides, rock climbed, ate old pizza, and played lazer tag! It was such a blast. I have the coolest family ever! Afterwards, we went home, and then I had work. Lucky me! Actually, work's not that bad. I work at Coney's Frozen Custard. It's delicious, and the people are great! That is all really.
Sunday: Hannah Herring (love her), Kristen Bodine (love her), and I sang our solo and ensemble song from last year at my grandma's ward. It went really well. Then I got sick. I have been lying on the couch ever since. I watched Enchanted (started it by myself and then my family of course joined in), and we all watched Elf together. I singlehandedly discovered that Ralphie from A Christmas Story plays the head elf Ming Ming! I was very proud of myself.
Now, I am watching Lost again. I didn't go to school today, and I am still sick. If you look on the bright side, you can call it an extended vacation. I do hate missing school though. I fall behind, and I miss seeing my friends. Let's hope that I get better by tomorrow, and let's also hope that something exciting happens sometimes soon so that I have something else to blog about! :) Love you all!
