Yes... I'm Here!

Of course. You can guess it. The top 3 reasons why I haven't been blogging for a while:
1. Our Internet has been down for a LONG time
2. We have had sooo many projects to do for school
3. Besides school, projects, and homework, I'm just a busy person babysitting all the time

So, anyway I guess I will give you an update of whats been going on. Most of this stuff my mom has already put on her blog, but I will tell you my thoughts abut it.

First of all, Dad was put into the Bishop Brick 2 weeks ago, and I think that's amazing! He is gone a lot, but I think it is sort of worth it. He is now up on the stand every Sunday while the ward members are watching us under a microscope. LOL.

Next, you probably have heard about Caitlin and I being WOWed. We volunteered to be a Lunch Buddy with a Handicap girl named Carmen. It is my week to be her buddy so today I helped her get her lunch and ate with her, and took her out to recess.

Anyway, I have to go work on my Book Report due soon.

Have a smiley week!

Love,

Courtney

Snow!! A Dream Come True!

Today it started snowing at about 2:45, while we were at our lockers at school. WE looked outside and little ice balls (sleet) started falling from the sky. We were all so exited! When our bus was called, they announced it started snowing! On the bus it looked at the snow surrounding the bus and everyone was super exited. When we got off the bus, all our neighbors were outside and playing in it. The snow lasted for about an hour (a new record) and it at some points snowed pretty hard. It was a dream come true!

How Smart is Your Right Foot? Try This- It Really Works!

HOW SMART IS YOUR RIGHT FOOT?

You have to try this please, it takes 2 seconds. I could not believe this!!! It is from an orthopedic surgeon............ This will boggle your mind and you will keep you trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't. It's pre-programmed in your brain!


1. Without anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY......) and while sitting at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number 6 in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction. I told you so!!! And there's nothing you can do about it! You and I both know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to try it again, if you've not already done so.


Send it to your friends to frustrate them too :)

Bri's Ears!

Brianne got her ears pierced on Saturday for her 8th birthday. I brought my camera so I could post on my Blog.









I interviewed Brianne before she got her ears pierced, when we were in the car.







I also videotaped her getting them pierced. It was really sad seeing her get teary-eyed.

What do you think?

Caitlin and I are getting cell phone for Christmas. We are going to use AT&T. Caitlin and I cannot decide which phone to get. We like the AT&T Quickfire Phone, and we also like the Pantech Matrix. Please help us! Post a comment telling us which one to get, or recommend us a phone for AT&T.

We want a phone that we can text easily, mainly with a QWERTY keyboard. We also want a phone that needs no specific plan like the Blackberry's.

First Up: The Pantech Matrix!





This awesome phone slides up and to the side.

Cool convertible design! The Pantech Matrix is perfect for messaging. With dual slide out keypads, MP3 music player, and XM radio it will keep you entertained on the go. Snap photos on the 1.3 MP camera and go wireless with Bluetooth® capabilities.

Here is the link for it:



Now, The AT&T Quickfire!

This touch screen phone is awesome for texting!


Lay your hands on the new Quickfire and its interactive touch screen and you'll discover you can check email, listen to music and watch videos all with a few simple taps of your finger. With 3G connection speeds, accessing the Internet anywhere, anytime will never be a problem. Can't get enough texting? The Quickfire's easy-to-use slide out QWERTY keyboard makes quick work of messaging.

Here is the link for it:

Now it's YOUR job to help us decide! Post a comment and tell us which one you think we should get.
