Snow Day!! :)

Yes, I guess I'm a bit over-obsessive with all this snow biz, but it's exciting when you haven't seen it in 2 years! Seriously, I was like a little kid this winter ;-P

Anyways, here's the snow day we had...what...2, 3 weeks ago? I did say I'd post about it...O:)

So anyways, after staying up till 1 in the morning that previous night, I found out that we had a snow day today so I could have just gone to sleep!!! grrr...oh well at least I got to relax the whole day :) and this time it wasn't just a little snow, it was 4 inches!!!! So much fun :)
Our street, or at least what was left of it...=D

Snowy!!!!

Our house :)

Icicles!!!

Playing in the snow, with gloves and boots that are my mom's and so don't fit me, and only my jeans because my snowpants from 2 years ago are just too small!!! :(

Next year, I really need some legit snow stuff =.=

Run while you can!!!!

*note my completely snow-covered pants...and yes, I was completely soaking*

Chill....

Lily!!!!

Our attempt at sledding, which miserably failed as we barely have a slope in our yard :(

"I'll push you down!!"

...

The ultimate way to know when it's time to go inside is if you're sweating but you can't feel your butt at all. Then you know you've played hard and there's some hot cocoa waiting inside :)

(which there wasn't =.=)

So that was my snow day :)

Just For Fun...

Playing With Picasa

Boredom leads to experimentation

Can you tell it's been edited?
Creepy...

O, yea, Badi! I finally found your effect!!!
Don't worry; the secret's safe with me ;-P

Just a little retouching...

Hehe more color!

As usual, somebody intruduced me to a program (Picasa, in this case), and I was reluctant to use it, then immediately began loving it.
Thanks, Badi! :)

Homecoming =D

Only one word to say about the dance: FUN!!!!!

Unfortunately, everyone kept running away from me, and then I had too much fun dancing, so I didn't get any good photos. :( =D

Tips for a successful social:

• Play at least one song that involves formation dancing/has specific dance moves


• Play songs that you can actually dance to


• Play songs that most people know


• Don't allow too many bands to play, if any at all!

• ssssssssllllllllllllluuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrr the music so it never stops!


• Flashing Lights


• Kick off your shoes


• Most Importantly - Don't feel self concious: just move to the music and enjoy yourself!

And that's pretty much what made the dance so great.

In fact, I was really sad to have to leave early! The evening would have been perfect, minus the minor incident that happened afterwards, but we'll not mention that now....

Spirit Week!

It's Homecoming Week, People! Show some Woodson Spirit, y'all!

Monday: Wacky Tacky

Lovin' them leggings ;-P

Tuesday: Salad Dressing

As the Freshmen (us) were "House" salad dressing, we got to wear our Woodson gear. Fun...

Wednesday: 80s Day (oops! I forgot to take a picture before I changed!)

Thursday: Circus!

Somebody had some fun with my camera...

Friday: Woodson Spirit!
This is a picture of the back of the school, and some of the students walking to the field for the Pep Rally, which is supposed to be a show of school groups (eg. cheerleaders, marching band) to help boost our morale and feel good about our school. As I said, SUPPOSED to.

Friday night was our Homecoming Game. Homecoming is where the school's football team (American football, naturally) plays a game in their home stadium after a long string of games away. I had fun stuffing myself at the Pre-Game Pigout, and then screaming my head off at our boys. ;-P We barely beat Madison 20-17 in the end 0.0

Crawl Like a Cougar

My brother and sister's school is Canterbury Woods Elementary School.

Their mascot is Cody the Cougar.

Every year, the school holds a "Cougar Crawl" which is a mile (about 1.6 km) walk families can participate in. Afterwards there is food and games.

Ready to walk, everybody?

The crowd takes off!

A police cruiser helps control people and car traffic.

Follow the blue arrows!

Woodson (my school) cheerleaders encouraging the walkers!

Eating

Playing frisbee

It was fun enough, especially with all the silly old dance music that was playing (eg the chicken dance), but I wish more people I knew from school had been there (as in, more than 1) ;-P

It's a Family Reunion!

Every year a family reunion is held at the lake house. Fortunately, we were in Maine when it was planned this year, so we got to see a bunch of relatives again!

Come on, Lily! Get on that bouncer!

Shelby is probably the absolute cutest kid i've ever met!
(Btw she says I'm her best friend ;-P)

Yay! Lily got on! Partay! =D

Everybody happily playing together

Areal view!

Going for a relaxing boat ride

Kids!

Water fight!!!

Where's Nick going?

Aww the poor guy's bored ;-P

Adults Chat

The Ice Cream Gutter!

Some people are certainly enjoying it ;-P

Jet Ski Attack!

The Dreaded Wall of Water =D

Wipeout!

Wakeboarding!

I just like this pic =D

Surprise!

Aren't they cute?

Boy, that was some exhausting party!
