Tsk, tsk, at me. I haven't updated in a week! But I'm sure all of y'all were busy with holiday things and weren't on the internet, just like me.

On the 23rd we (BJ, 'Uel, Ethan, Naomi, and I) left the house with Jake Bower, Michael and Brandon Arnett, and Jennifer, Jeannette, and Jillian Jud. It was raining then. Mrs. Bower brought Isaac, Luke, and Simon to see another movie (Wild Thornberries, I believe.) at the Cinemark, too. The theater was pretty crowded, so we didn't get to sit all together. Samuel and I got the best seats: right in the middle of that first row on the upperside of the main aisle where you can put your feet up on the rail. It's where we sat to watch K-19, JC. We had read a spoiler's review so we had already gotten all mad and upset at the bad parts, so I was able to enjoy it much more. Music, Gimli, Gollum, Gandalf, and Shadowfax were perfect. We came out and it was snowing VERY HEAVILY! BJ learned to drive WA though, so it wasn't bad for her. It was just all the other drivers! We were all crawling along inbetween 7 and 18 miles per hour all the way through Tulsa. Because of accidents and Christmas shoppers we ended up using roads BJ wasn't familiar with, but we just followed Mrs. Bower. Altogether it took us 3 hours to get home. Everybody else called and cancelled because of weather. The Judd girls met up with their sister in town, so Jennifer wouldn't have to drive home in her little car. They haven't made it out yet to pick up her car, but the snow is melting today, so I think they'll be out soon.

Our Christmas was wonderful. I did not get my family's presents done in time, so I'll give them in January. I got a beautiful new wallet, a beautiful gold ring with a purple stone set with cubic zirconiums (sp?), a beautiful flower notepad and pen, 4 beautiful multi-colored gel pens, and a yummy candy sled. And Aunt Catherine sent me a beautiful trinket holder.

Interesting quiz...
