My New Blog Address

I have decided to create a new blog under the name http://www.ashtonmccormickkelly.blogspot.com/, however all of my previous posts (the ones found here) are on the new blog, I transferred them. My other blog still exists, but I will no longer be using it. My profile is the same, so the blog has everything transferred over to it. You can still view this blog, but there will not be any updated posts, as they are my more recent blog. I hope you enjoy my new blog.

Kelly and Derrick's Wedding!

Friday, December 17th was the date of the wedding rehearsal. That was also the last day of school for the holiday break. So after we finished school we drove to Delhi to see the beautiful theatre where Kelly and Derrick would be getting married the very next day. We finished setting up where the reception would be taking place and then we did a run-through of the wedding ceremony. Afterwards, we had pizza, salad, wings and pop and then we drove home to get ready for the next day. I had a hair appointment with gramma at Linda's for 8am, while Kelly had a hair appointment at 6am. Then Kelly and her bridal party got their makeup and hair done and drove to Delhi once again. While this was happening mom and I had dropped off gramma and were picking up last minute things and breakfast (an 8 pack of Reeses Peanut Butter Cups!) We drove back home, ate lunch and got dressed for the wedding. We picked up gramma and drove to Delhi, but with time to spare we checked in at the hotel everybody was staying at, The Best Western, in Simcoe. Once we got to the theatre it was a rush to get everybody ready. The wedding ceremony went very well and was beautiful. Afterwards, pictures of the wedding party were taken, and we were welcomed back to the theatre for 5pm for the dinner and reception to follow. The dinner was delicious and the reception was so much fun. We were dancing to dances from Just Dance for the wii, and we left video messages. The next day we ate breakfast at the hotel and we went back to clean up. I vacummed for about an hour trying to get the sparkles out of the carpet from the tree ornaments.....They are still there! We drove home after that and relaxed...aahh. The weekend was a blast and then there were gifts and guestbook cards to follow! Congratulations on your marriage!

Christmas is Coming!

I know we are already 8 days into December, but I wasn't really feeling the Christmas spirit until later on today. My friend Maddie is a Christmas fanatic, although I am too, and so the first snowfall was a BIG deal! Today however, it was snowing a lot and it was cold. We don't have enough snow to cover the ground, but we are getting there! I went on http://www.northpole.com/ and I sent a letter to santa, whom I will recieve a reply from in about 3 days, and I took a test to see if I am on the naughty or nice list (nice, just in case any of you were wondering). I also talked to Bonnie and Bif the elves on elfchat! There are animated, moving post cards too, that I sent myself a couple of weeks ago. Even though it is only the beginning of December, there are actually only 17 days until Christmas, and only 7 school days left until the holiday break! I guess I should start my Christmas shopping! Bailey and I have each made a gingerbread house and we both have Christmas calendars that we open everyday. I am very excited for Christmas, and I hope we have a white Christmas not a green one like last year!
