The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Oh my gosh! I haven't posted since Thanksgiving and it's already Christmas Eve? Where has the time gone? Well, until school got out on the 17th, I was madly finishing articles for the December edition of the school newspaper, assembling goodie bags for all my friends at school, and studying for all of the day-before-winter-break tests and quizzes. How could teachers be so cruel?

Then, it was time to finish decorating for Christmas, bake cookies, (I didn't put enough flour in the first batch of chocolate chip ones...what a disaster. And I thought I was a good cook!) and help my mom and dad send cards and packages to what seems like everyone on the face of the earth. Plus, I have to finish reading a book for a report due sometime in January.

ANYWAY, what you're probably waiting for is the photos. Here they are, alternating between holiday shots of Samantha and me...

I'll try to post tomorrow, but if I can't, I wish everybody a very merry Christmas!

I Found...

...a very old picture! Well, not that old. Relatively old. It's from July 2007. My friends Emily and Nellie from another town got together with Samantha and me to make a couple of videos. They weren't very good videos, because we didn't really know how to use the camera, much less edit. And they were EXTREMELY* cheesy.

*I rarely use all capitals, so that tells you how cheesy these videos were.

Anyway, here is the pic.



We were all exhausted after spazzing out for about three hours. That explains the slightly messy hair and the weary expressions.

What has been going on this week? In a nutshell, everyone was busy. The main things happening at RSSG are homework, rehearsal, newspaper, and Student Council.

Thanks for reading! Happy Sunday!

First Day of Fifth Grade!

Hello! Today was the long-awaited first day of school at RSSG.

I waited for my best friend in a corner of the hallway next to a hand-lettered banner in the school colors, purple and green. It looked like someone had hurriedly made that sign a few minutes before the students came inside. :D

Finally, I saw Samantha. She looked really nice and was all in pink, as usual.



"Kit! You look so preppy and cute!" she squealed. I laughed.

We talked for a minute or two until the bell rang and we headed to class.



There are two classes (20 or so kids in each) of fifth graders. Samantha and I both have Ms. Bell.

We didn't do much today, but we did have our school portraits taken. Here they are!

Me...



...and Samantha! Doesn't she look like a model? And her hair almost looks red! I wonder what color setting they used.



I'm sure exciting things will start happening at school soon!

More from the Fourth of July Photoshoot!

Oh, my. I have really forgotten to post lately. Here are some more of my favorites from July fourth.











I really like the one of me up in the tree. Climbing trees is so much fun! Thank you to everyone who has been commenting and following my blog. It makes me feel like someone out there likes my photos and views of the world. Okay, not of the world, but you know. My little life in general.

Many smilies,
Kit
