On Feb. 28th Micah, Adam and I went to the church for a party Harrison was throwing. while there we watched Prince Caspian, had Lunch, then talked and debated about the movie (I didn’t do much talking :P ).  I also got to see Rebecca and Tucker from MSP!

After lunch I went outside where Naomi, Rebecca, Tucker, Win and Baleigh were playing Soccer with Naomi’s Ball, Ben and Scott also came out.  We played pass for a while then I started throwing snowball’s at Ben, Scott and Tucker, I guess I should be more careful about picking a fight with 3 guys, I got hit alot!

After the Party we met my dad at the gas station, and went up to Portland to go to the Concert and Hockey night!! It was SO fun!! We got there just in time for the Concert. My favorite song they sing is One Life. We were at the Concert with the Mangums, Brianna and Justin Caruthers, Scott Knowles, and Peter G. The Otis’ and Miranda were supposed to come but they had to clean up after the party and got there late :( . The Concert was so loud after I could barely hear myself talk!

After the Concert they needed 1 1/2 hours to clear off the ice and get ready for the Game, so everyone had to get out of the arena.  We met the Otis’s outside and after about 10 minutes they decided to walk to Pizzahut and eat dinner. So all of us walked to Pizzahut (we later found out we took the long way around) it was really fun!

When we got back we sat down and we had really good seats! we were 1 row from the floor on a corner! at half time I went with Scott, Justin, Mrs. Mangum’s Sister and Jake and Megan to get the bands autograph! we had to wait for about 30 min!! but we got there and I got my ticket signed! the game lasted till  10:30ish and Portland Pirates lost :( , the game went into over time, then it went into extra over time! there was one goaly on each side, and one at a time the team came out and tried to score on them.  We left right after it ended, but then we got lost in Portland! after that we had to drop off the Caruthers and Scott, so we ended up getting home at 11:30ish.

To some people Christmas is finding a place to park in Walmart, and racing from store to store trying to find the best deal on a candle. To other people it’s making sure your house is sparkling clean before guests arrive, and checking in Betty Crocker to see if you have the right baking time for stuffing.

With TV, Internet, and all the major retail stores everywhere we turn, seeing the true meaning of Christmas and not the advertised version is getting harder every year, and now people are saying “Happy Holiday’s” instead of “Merry Christmas” because Christmas is to religious.

I hope that we will all take a minute out of the chaos of last minute shopping and cleaning and look at Christmas for what it really is, Jesus’ Birthday, the time where we should be so excited that Jesus is our savior it shows on our face and the way we treat others in Kindness and Respect.

Luke 2:8-18

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.  An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.”  When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”

So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.

On Sunday afternoon after church I went over to the Otis’ house, when we got there we had to hurry and get changed so we could go to Naomi’s Soccer game.  While Naomi was playing, I was in the bleachers watching her play and waiting for Mrs. Otis to get there.  When she got there I played with Heidi who is 1, and Josiah who is 7.  After the game (they lost 1 to 0) we went home, but on the trip back Naomi had to prop her leg on the seat because she had a really bad scrape.

When we got back Naomi took a quick shower, and then we had Popcorn and watched some of Little Women.  Then we had to go back to church.

My Dad (who is in Kuwait) is moving to a different camp. It’s called Camp Virginia, it’s farther South so that means its safer than the other camp he was at, so that is very good! he sent us a lot of stuff from his camp because he does not need a lot of it. He will be back around July 30 but were not sure.
