I'm grateful for...

I know this post is kind of late, but I think that you all need to know that there are many things that I'm grateful for. And, since I've sort of become slightly obsessed with poems this month, I will express these wonderful things in a poem, even if I have no idea what kind of poem it is. :) Turkey (in this case, the bird turkey, although the country Turkey is also fabulous, I'm sure) Hats Ankles Nerds (both the people and candy) Kit kat bars Sweet potatoes Gum Invitations to a second Thanksgiving feast :) Vikings Ipods Napolean Dynamite Goosen Though these things are seemingly totally random, I assure you... they're not. They're not the only thing I'm grateful for, either. For example, if the word "Thanksgiving" had a "j" in it, I would tell you that I am extremely grateful for Justin Bieber. The reason? Because his Christmas songs are just brilliant. As well as the fact that he has a killer smile. Just saying. And if the word "Thanksgiving" had a "c" in it, I would say that I'm grateful for chocolate covered raisins. They are fabulous. :) Alright. Now that you all know I'm grateful to be alive on this earth, I will go and brain wash myself with Chris Brown's "Next to You", featuring Justin Bieber. Awww yeah. :)

Service Project

So today our ward performed service in the form of "The Great Rake-over." As I hope you can tell, we got into a bunch of groups and went to a bunch of different houses and raked. It was fabulous. I also discovered these neat yellow hand cover-thingys that you use to pick up the leaves. It was pretty fabulous, seeing how they were very effective. I wish I had pictures to show you, but my friends Abby and Mim attacked my brother by hug. It was pretty fantastic. There were a lot of people, and there were supposedly supposed to be treats, but no such sugary confections were to be had. At least, not that we know of. Although (as cheesy as this sounds), doing service is just as rewarding. Plus, we're having Parmesan Chicken for dinner, and canned raspberries on ice cream for dessert. :D

Levi

There is a lot to say about this dear little boy. I think, that I will compose a poem about him, using his name. Unfortunately, I have no idea what that type of poem is called. Loud Eccentric Voracious Idiosyncratic So, there you have it. My little brother is loud, eccentric, voracious, and idiosyncratic. Three of those words, if you'll notice, mean, in some form or other, odd, weird, and strange. By definition: my little brother. :) P.s. This post was inspired by the very subject the lovely poem above is about. Just thought you should know that. Perhaps tomorrow I will post about another family member. Or pianos. Or zombies. Or zombies playing the piano with a family member. Really anything will work. :)

What's the Favorite for the Day?

You want to know what the favorite thing of the day is? Costco. Costco is among the best stores in the entire world. Also the local thrift store is also pretty amazing. Anyway, at Costco, there was this magnificent book all about the film making journey of Harry Potter! What's not to love about that? Besides that they had(have) delicious food to try (let's face it: who doesn't go to Costco just to mooch off their free samples of scrumptious food?) and many people that thought it a bit odd that two kids who should be in school were not. Plus... well, no, that's it. But it was a good time.

Hair cut?

I really want to cut my hair... but I don't know how I should cut it. Here are a few that I was thinking are super cute. Let me know what you think! And yes, even if you don't think I should cut it, I would still really appreciate your opinions! :)
