Halloween Costume!

I have finally decided what I am dressing up as for Halloween!...........................CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS!!!! I will wear a t-shirt that says captain underpants on it, with jeans with underwear over top, and a cape! I really like this costume idea, I don't think many people are being captain underpants. However, my mom is being an egg with devil horns...a devilled egg, and my brother is thinking of being a zombie and then I was going to do his horror makeup (bulletholes, bruises, cuts etc.) I am pretty excited for Halloween!

VMT'S Hairspray!

This past Monday at my Village Musical Theatre (VMT) rehearsal we were all given our scripts for our upcoming show this year.....Hairspray! We were also given our audition packages which means that the auditions are being held on Saturday, October 30th. I will be auditioning for 2 people: Tracy....and whoever else I decide before the end of this weekend. The show dates for our final production will be a month early this year meaning they are at the end of March (don't know the exact dates yet), and we will be putting on 7 shows! I am excited for the auditions and I will keep you posted on what happens. Wish me good luck.....uh I mean break a leg!

Halloween!

I am starting to get excited...there are only 17 days left until Halloween!! I wonder what I will be?????

Thanksgiving!

Finally, Thanksgiving weekend came around and we got to enjoy a Thanksgiving meal on the Sunday. We had turkey with cranberries and gravy, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, stuffing, peas, corn, bread and of course pie! However, we didn't have a typical Thanksgiving weekend. We somehow managed to fit a whole weeks worth of activities into 2 days! My cousins and their fiancees, and my mom's cousin and her husband came down and the house was packed with one big happy family! Tara and Kelly came home on Thursday and Kelly's wedding shower was on Friday night. Then Derrick got home Saturday morning, and Stacy at noon. We went to the hall to set up for the Stag and Doe that was later that night and then we came home to relax for a bit. I slept over at Marissa and Leigha's that night because we were too young to go the Stag and Doe. We played wii and we had a lot of fun! Then I got picked up Sunday morning and a few hours later Tara and Stacy left to go to Stacy's mom and dad's for Thanksgiving. Not long after they left, Marissa and Leigha came over to have Thanksgiving with us. Then Bailey and I left to visit at our gramma and grampas. We came back and Derrick and Kelly had to leave on their long drive back home to New Brunswick. This weekend was very busy but it was also a lot of fun! There was always something to do and always somebody to follow around. I'm happy everyone came home, especially because some of them I hadn't seen in over 4 months! Happy Thanksgiving everybody!

October!

Yay! It's finally October! This month it's Thanksgiving and Halloween and it's Fall! The leaves are already starting to change color and fall off of the trees, and there's that nice fall breeze that I love! We started carving pumpkins and roasting pumpkin seeds last weekend, and I can wear hoodies every day! I look forward to this season every year, it isn't too cold or hot, the scenery when you're driving is beautiful and I know i'll be going on lots of hikes this year!

The Ancaster Fair!

This Thursday-Sunday is the 160th Ancatser Fair! I am performing in "Ancaster Fair's Got Talent" on Thursday, the 23rd. I am singing Taking Chances by Celine Dion, and on Sunday, the 26th, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners of each competition perform at 4pm. My friend Jaclyn Kenyon is also performing, but as a guest not a contestant, so she will be found performing on the Saturday!

Ancaster High's Grade 9 Weekend!

This past Friday September 17th, was Ancaster High's grade 9 weekend! All grade 9's on this day showed up at school ready to start class at 8:25 and ran through a regular school day, but as the bell rang at 2:45pm instead of heading home, most grade 9's (including me) made their way down to the gym to kick-off 2010's grade 9 weekend! We got our water bottles and our t-shirts and then we were placed into our groups. This years theme was Facebook, so every group was a different game. My group was "the crazy taxis!" We created signs, painted our leaders and our classroom, performed our cheers, and then we went onto the back field to play the outdoor games. Thebouncy castle and the bouncy obstacle course were my two favourite games. Then we had dinner and listened to a few live bands play. After dinner we went up to our rooms and we had a scavenger hunt in the east wing of the school. We had a 3 hour dance following that, and then we were sent to the gym's to hang out for 7 hours...and possibly sleep. My goal was to stay up all night...but as my eyes slowly closed I only stayed up until about 3:40am. Then I woke up around 7am, completely unaware of what was happening, and we packed up and had breakfast. I headed home and fell asleep! Not a surprise. The grade 9 weekend was a lot of fun, and I hope to be a leader in grade 12, for 2013's grade 9 weekend.
