Live Life Loud Tour!

There goes my wisdom

Did you ever wonder what would happen if you flushed a live fish down the toilet?
I never really thought about it before today, but I think it would be cool to put a tracking device on a goldfish and flush him on down. I don’t think it would be too cruel, because goldfish live in the water so they wouldn’t be too far from their natural habitat. Plus, it would be cool to see where all they would go.
I can imagine them rushing down through the pipes and then out into wild underground river of “Sewerville”. Maybe they would end up in the river, maybe they would….never mind, that is getting a little gross to think about. But anyways, my point is, wouldn’t it be cool to see what would happen?
Except that none of that would happen if I flushed a fish down our toilet because we have a septic tank, so it would just end up in a big nasty tank underground. That’s sad.

Now, back to reality. I had a orthodontist appointment today (at least we thought so, but that‘s another story) and Dr. Henry adjusted my evil retainer. It never hurt to wear it before, it was just a nuisance to mess with sometimes. But now it hurts really stinkin’ bad.
I need to get off now, so, I guess I’ll add more to this tomorrow.
Bye!!

And he adds more!!
Okay, so, where was I? Oh yeah, the orthodontist. I had to get X-rays and pictures and stuff done. And when they looked at the X-ray, they gave me some horrible news. I have a wisdom tooth forming in the top left (or is it right?) of my mouth. :( I used to have the wonderful theory that since I didn't have wisdom teeth, they would never have to get pulled, so I would never lose my wisdom. But now, not only do I have to have my wisdom taken away, I only get one part of it to start with.
I think I might just never get it pulled though. Some dentist told my mom a long time ago that she was gonna have to get hers cut out, but they came in just fine. Why won't mine?

We got 20 baby chicks the other day!! They've already goten biggger in the few days that we've had them(makes you wonder what kind of hormones they put in that chicken food, don't it?). We got 15 that are hens and another five that we're not sure about. I think we have 2 or 3 roosters. It'll be nice to get a bunch of eggs again(if we ever did get "a bunch" of eggs before). Several weeks before Lana's graduation, we bought our first batch of chicks. I think we got eleven or some weird number like that(why eleven and not twelve?). But when we had only had them for a few weeks, a dog got in there and killed all but four (which was really sad because those ones were like pets. I even had one of them trained to do some tricks). Eventually, we got some more from different peopkle and I think we had maybe 16 at one time, but one by one the dogs up the street would kill them. Now we only have three grown chickens and one of them is a roostar and the other two are bantams (one of which has only layed one egg since we've had her). But, we have 20 chicks that are rapidly growing and nobody has seen Bull(that evil pit bull) in a week. So we should be in pretty good shape chickenwise in a few months.
I think that's all of the BIG stuff, so, bye again!

Happy B-Day Lily!!!!

Today is Lily-Pie's first birthday!!!!!


She is getting so big!!!

She can already have a conversation with you (provided you have good linguistics skills)

She crawls around and pulls herself up on everything (which means that nothing is safe)

She absolutely *loves* music (especially the type that *I* like)

And finally, She has given our family an abundance of joy every day for the past year (even though she gets fussy sometimes).


Happy birthday Lily-Pie!!!

I love you

It's a big blueish-green man with a strange goatee. I'm guessing that's significant.

Oh boy! here it comes! wait a minute... there it goes! What is it? It's PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME! PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME!! Sorry(not really ;P) that was dumb.

Tru D-O-G what you got for me?

Whoa! I feel good(banananananananaa!).

Take me to the river... put me in the water....

Don't step on my blue suede shoes...

What you got, what you want, what you need? Gotta be your savior.

I believe I can fly. I believe I can touch the sky. I think about it every night and day. Spread my wings and fly away...

Come on somebody, why don't you run? Ol Red is itchin', to have a little fun. Get my lantern, get my gun. Red will have you treed 'fore the mornin' comes.

I would walk 500 miles and I would walk 500 more...

ARGH!!! I keep getting all sorts of songs stuck in my head!!! They won't leave!!!!
I wish I could get a rap song stuck in my head. That would be cool.

I need to pick a song to sing at the wedding, but I can't think of one!!! I've only got two months left!!! Any suggestions??

Btw, this post didn't have any point to it. I just wanted to say something.

Well, I guess since I'm already on here, I might as well say more. MORE!!! That was dumb, but it had to be done. ;P

I'll probably write a real post soon. Maybe in a couple of days. I just wondered what type of comments I would get on a post like this.
I need to try to get my cousins to comment on here. That would be cool... My cousins are cool. And all of my cousins have one cousin that is exceptionally awesome. He's pretty tall, has dark curly hair, and he likes to imitate people all of the time. ;P

Got Green?

Usually I don’t have anything to post about, but today I actually have a couple of somethings to post about!!
First (and most recent): Lola (my little dog) was sniffing around some bushes and got her ear caught in some thorns. She just got a little slit in her ear, nothing major, but it bled like CRAZY. She looked like she had just about lost her head or something like that. I guess that’s not really the type of thing that people like to read about, huh? So, I’ll talk about….something different!! Umm, let’s see, I had something else to write about, I just know I did!!! I can’t think of it!! It’s DRIVING ME CRAZY!! ARGH!! Ooooh!! I just remembered!! It’s St. Patrick’s Day today!! So, if anyone in your family isn’t wearing green, run up and pinch ’em before they can change clothes. Unless of course the un-green person is Lana and she is standing by the sink and she’ll spray you with freezing cold water if you pinch her. But if it’s not Lana, then it’s probably semi-safe to go ahead and pinch them. ;P
I wrote a poem about wind the other day and Lana said it was good. I’m not sure if I really like it or not.
I know, I know, you guys are just dying to read it aren’t you? Hmmm, show them or not show them? Gotta know. I guess I’ll show you.
I am the wind
I give the trees a voice
I move the air under a bird’s wings
I bring the clouds that hide the sun
And then I take them away again
I am a gentle breeze
I am a powerful storm
I make the waves in the ocean
I make buildings crumble and fall
I lift children’s kites
I awaken men’s dreams
I am the wind
I’m still not sure if I like it or not. But if Lana says it’s good I guess it must be at least mediocre.
I had something else to post about, but it left me. Oh yeah, I got it again.
Easter is this Sunday!! I think we’re going to my Granny’s house, but I’m not 100% sure about that. And I think that we are going to the Easter program at the Hobbs’s church; we’ve gone every year since we've known them.
The other day, Lana told me about “Enchanted”. I think that it’s some fairy-tale movie gone wrong or something like that, but I don’t know (it looks funny). Anyways, it’s coming out tomorrow, so we’ll probably rent it at some point this week.

Birthdays, dancing, and food

Ahh, (sigh) life is good(for the most part).
Uncle Scott went skiing last Monday, so he and Uncle Charlie(who isn‘t even related to Uncle Scott, so it’s kind of funny that we call him “Uncle Charlie”) met at our house and he left his car here.
He came back today to pick it up. So I got to show him Felicity (who is getting big, btw).
I’ve been playing my guitar everyday for the past week or so(which doesn‘t have anything to do with anything). It would be a lot better if I knew more songs because everything that I play, I can play really well. Problem is, I don’t know just a ton of songs.
We had chicken noodle soup for lunch today. MAN it was goood!! Luke wrote a post on food once, I might have to do that sometime…
Lily-pie’s b-day is in a few weeks. I need to get a present for her, and then I need to get a present for T.J., and then one for dad, and another one for Lana, and one last one for Josiah. It great having five birthdays in in less than 1 ½ months time. ;P

I want to start working soon, but my future boss hasn’t said anything about when I’m going to start. *If* I do end up working for him, I think I’ll be a cross between a cowboy and a farmhand. I guess you could call it a farm boy, but I’m already one of those so it’s probably better to call it a cowhand, or maybe just not give me a title. If I *don‘t* work for him, I might work at Goodson’s or someplace like that.
What I really need to do is figure out what I want to do for a living after college so that I can figure out what I should major in. I just re-realized the other day that, I’m going to graduate in a few years and I’ll be an adult in 2 ½ years. Whoa, when did everybody get so old? (no offense mom and dad ;P)

I talked to Tim about Fan the Flame this morning. He asked me (again) what day it’s going to be. And then he said, “you know what? Maybe you should just e-mail me about it, them I can save it and look at it later”. So, I told him that I would send him a e-mail sometime this week. And then, he got the idea to just put *me* in charge of getting all of the information and telling everyone about it and all that stuff, then he wouldn’t be able to forget about it.
I probably need to talk to him some more and find out exactly what he wants me to do… I think that it will be good for the youth group if they go. I know it’s been good for me the last couple of years. ;P

Just 2 ½ months until the wedding. There’s still a TON of stuff to get done, most of it has to be done closer to the time of the wedding.

T.J. used to work at I.F.C auto shop, and he went bowling with Barry(his old boss) the other day. He said that when it wasn’t Barry’s turn, he was in the back dancing like I would do. And then T.J. started saying that he had some sweet moves, at which point I interrupted saying, “Hey! You said Barry dances like me and that he has sweet moves. Does that mean I have sweet moves too?” Apparently T.J. thinks that I do. ;P
After talking with T.J. for awhile, he said that Barry used to teach dance at some studio in town, and he would be willing to teach us some stuff for free.
I think that would be pretty sweet. To dance alongside a guy that dances like I do. That doesn’t happen everyday. ;P

If only goats could type....

Now, you have to wonder what goes through a little goat's head.
If Felicity could type, she'd probably say something like this...
Awwww, ain't I cute??
Check out my noble pose ;P and my fancy footwork.

Oh my, there's something on the wall
now it's on the ground.


I think I'm gonna go over here for awhile.

What're you lookin' at?



Now now, Felicity, you shouldn't be so vain... ;P

and then there were four...




There's something that I have been waiting a long time for,
and it happened tonight!!
A goat was finally born on our farm!!!


Ever since I bought Speckles, I was never really sure if she was pregnant or not.
But, I found out for sure earlier this evening!!

This is what I found when I went to lock up the goats!!So, I can finally say it.

SPECKLES IS A MAMA!!!!

I will post more pics later, but this was the only good one I had ;P
