Happy Thanksgiving!!

Sorry I haven't updated in awhile.  I've been super busy at work and trying to figure out my new Nintendo 3ds, lol.

I hope everybody had a fun and joyous Thanksgiving.  My cousins came down and we spent the day chatting, playing with the wii, and eating!  What did you do?

I think my next entry will be about the gameboy again.

rain and earthquakes

We're having horrible weather here.  It's so boring!!!  It makes me think about a time my sister, our hamster, and I were home alone when the tornado sirens went off. 

So I was probably about 12 and my sister would've been 9.  We just watched on episode of "Roseanne" where they had a tornado go through and destroy their town.  My sis and I were downstairs doing out make believe talk show, when all of the sudden the a huge thunder/ wind storm started came to town.   Oh ,no!   Have no fear, we know what to do.

So we went upstairs grabbed the essentials, our hamster, helmets, safety pads, a jump rope, a baby gate, soda, and chips.  (our toy rooms were downstairs)  We got the hamster and put her cage under the coffee table.  We put on our helmets and pads and ventured into the play rooms.  Our mission was to try to find anything that we could use to barricade the stair way.  I'm thinking we used the baby gate, our barbie house, and some dining room table chairs.  We snacked and watched TV underneath the coffee table.

Then after maybe an hour or so our dad came home from work.  He was wondering what we were doing.  Apparently we were in the all clear and weren't in any danger.  He just laughed and walked off.  
My sister and I did a TON of crazy stuff that summer.
