Birthday

Ack! Finally I can do my blog, but the videos won't upload! It says to "contact support". So... I'll get that worked out sometime, but for now it'll have to be plain and simple writing. My birthday was wonderful, we didn't do much because there was school, and piano, and the boys all three had sports and then Ben had Boy Scouts... We did go out to eat at El Rodeo, they make the best casadeas. (spelling?!) Only they are not El Rodeo anymore. Now it is Los- something or another. The new name change just makes it harder to pronounce! And I got a slice of chocolate silk creme pie from A Slice of Pie... yumm... (that makes up for no cake! we were real busy but we will get an ice cream cake when I have a couple friends over- just as yum)
This week has been and will be pretty hectic. We have a volleyball game in Marshfield tomorrow, and a game in Lebonan on Friday- wish us luck! Lately, lets see, what have I been doing? School, and school, and essays, and more school... not that I'm fussing. I am glad that I don't have two hours worth of homework to do in the evenings! I've been drawing. I might put some of my art on the blog, but heaven knows how embarrassing it gets to have people looking at it all. Even my very best pictures that I am quite proud of! I have been scribbling poetry and I have actually typed my story for the first time in over a month! We got the back computer up and running so now I can practice my German on Rosetta Stone. I have been messing with my video camera. I have already taken a full hour's worth of recordings. Which includes ten minutes of William and Nick singing Veggie Tales on top of their lungs-- but hey, it's fun!
So that is all for now but I will update soon. Maybe with some pictures of the near- finished playhouse and loads of videos! (Though the videos might take even longer. I just thought of the problem. They are massive files, like half a gig for three minutes. I'll have to ask Dad how to compress them.)
