I guess I have some filling-in to do...

So I just turned 12! On my birthday I:

Had breakfase in bed. Crepes! With marscepone, raspberries, fresh fresh peaches, and chocolate sauce.

Opened presents, in bed! From parents, 'My Neighbor Totoro,' a new watch; from Abigail, earrings; from grandma Judy, a PHONE!; from grandma Linny, notebooks and money; from aunt Julie, fingernail polish and giftcards; from the other Hodges, a Swiss Army Knife and Swiss Army Flashlight (I almost blinded myself!); from the Mumfords, bananagrams; from aunt Pam, a bag and a book; from Paige a KLUTZ book (I love those!). 

The reason I do that is because people always ask me what I got for my birthday, and I really don't like answering that question.

THEN we went to P. F. Changs for dinner.  I had Crispy Honey Chicken, mom and Abigail shared some kind of shrimp, and my dad ate whatever nobody else did.  It was awesome!

I had a kickbutt birthday and I wanna thank you all.  :)

It's the Most Wonderful Time.....

Today is day 1 of like 6 Christmases.  Oh my goodness, I love Christmas....

We always have Christmas with the M. (I'm not going to name names...) family the Saturday before Christmas.  It's always been like that for as long as I can remember and I hope it always will be.

My grandma Judy makes the best ham ever.  It's really amazing because she smothers the outside with mustard.   It's crazy good.  We also had Jell-O salad (yes, Jell-O, my family is crazy), mashed potatoes, and corn from our farm.  My grandma also makes the best rolls.  Mmmmm...

After we ate we had  rainbow sherbert punch.  It's sooooooooooooooooo good.

Present-wise, I got a sweater, a scarf, a book, i-Tunes giftcard, a flashlight, and a watch.  Ooooooh,  I can't wait untill Santa comes!  That's my favorite part.

Oh Indiana Jones is on, gotta go.
