A Short Update

 I am just sitting here in computers and thought that I would blog. There are only eight people in class today since the high school get a few days off. I guess everyone else thought that they could skip because their siblings were. Not fair. :( I still had to come but oh well having less kids is more fun. 

 So my life is as busy as ever. We are still doing finishing in our house and hopefully soon we will be all done. Except for all the landscaping in the spring that is coming up soon. 

 Also we have thirteen horses! We are boarding nine and have four of our own. Going out there and feeding at times is a little scary, especially when they all surround you and start kicking at each other! 

 Just a short update to keep you posted.

Gym

 Miss. Stinton told us that we are going to be dancing in gym for the whole month of February! To me this is good and bad news. I love to dance but I also love other sports which we will be missing out on. :(  I am not sure what kinds of dance we are going to do but I hope they are fun. 

 Another thing that will make dance fun is teaching. Me and Miranda have already approached Miss. Stinton and she said that we could teach a highland dance. :) I know most people won't take it serious but it will be fun anyways. 

Obama's Inauguration

 Today is the day! Barack Obama is the 44Th president of the United States of America and he has just made history. He is the very first black president. I believe this is an important mark in history. For many years African Americans have been looked down upon in the U.S. They were never allowed to be in the government and now that has changed. Obama's family were immigrants and that is also significant. His father worked as a janitor for the longest time and they were definitely not a wealthy family. 

 I just thought that this day is quite significant to the history of the United States and the rest of the world.

Driving

 I haven't even posted about having my learners! Well I do have them and have since August. I haven't been driving since the weather got so bad but I think I will try winter driving soon. My mom says that I am a very cautious driver and I agree. My Dad made me drive on the highway and I got up to the speed limit which was a surprise, since everyone thinks I drive like a grandma. 

 I have a year and a half left to drive with my learners and then I can get my drivers. In the mean time I have to save up for a truck or maybe a car but I really want a truck so then I can hall stuff around. 

 This truck in the picture is kind of what I want except if it was white with some dice in the window and pink interior that would be even better! 

Number One Hockey Fan

 I love to watch hockey. Whether it is my brothers peewee game or the NHL I love to watch it. 

 Last year my brothers peewee team won the B banner in the league and I cheered so loud. I had a blue storms horn and my competition was this little girl on the other team. She also had a blue horn and we were going back and forth. Our team won so I guess I won the little fan war too. 

 Around here most people are Oilers fans but I actually like the Flames better. 

 If I have the time I will put some of Jared's hockey pics up.

Christmas- far gone

:(
Its all over and we are back at school.
I had a great holiday in my new house! There isn't much furniture in it yet but it is a house. We got our tree Christmas eve and haven't taken it down.
How was your holiday?
