The Wingfeather Saga

I suppose you've heard Firefly and Creator's Son talking about the Wingfeather Saga. Now it's my turn! The saga is about three kids, Janner, Tink, and Leeli, their mother, Nia, and Podo, their grandpa. Andrew Peterson, the author, is amazing at what he does. He put an amazing amount of characters, and places, and names, and hilarious footnotes, not to mention awesome critters that he made up! All in all, it's a awesome saga! It's composed of four books; (in order) On The Edge Of The Dark Sea Of Darkness,  North! Or Be Eaten..., Monster In The Hollows, and The Warden And The Wolf King.  I warn you, do not read the backs of the books after the one you're reading, it will ruin EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!  We just finished the third book and there is a BIG problem: The fourth book doesn't come out until...        ** 2013 **        That's a year from now!   I just finished the third book and now you tell me I gotta wait a year before I find what out  happens?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!  Peterson! Hurry it up!!!!!!!!  Flabbuck!!!!!!!!!  * Ahem * This means I'll have to wait a whole 'nother year before I find out what happens to the Igibys! Flabbuck.   :(

What is in your room?

I do not know what is in your room. But I do know what's in my room- A bed (obviously), a window, 2 dressers, an aquarium with a snake in it, a bed side desk, a bookshelf (with many books, as I love to read!), a closet, some shelves, and a little table. On my walls- A picture that I've colored, some paintings that I painted, some paintings that I didn't paint, 3 shelves displaying Breyer model  horses, a bulletin board, and a LOT of horse posters.
  

So what is in your room?

Horsey wall.

SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It snowed!!! On the 12th! On me! And I played in it! And why is this so awesome, you ask? Because I live in Texas! And in case you don't know, it never snows in Texas (unless you live in the Panhandle, which I don't).  So my mom woke me up by saying "look out your window."  I sit up sleepily, hobble over to my window and shriek with joy. Little white snowflakes were drifting down.   * Ahem *   Did you hear me??!!     IT WAS SNOWING!!!!    I quickly throw on my coat and jeans and grab my camera. (That's right, I am going to enlighten you with more pictures. heh heh heh!) After I run outside I dash over to Trixie's paddock (taking pics all the while.) and exuberantly tell her how much I was enjoying the snow (imagine her delight!). After I repeat the process with Gypsy, I run to the hill that I had tried to get Sasha to pull me down and grab my sled.  I sled down once then went and got mom, my camera man. By now the snow had started sticking to the ground pretty good so I got a couple good sled rides. We had to babysit our 7 year old neighbor, Doodle, so she was here when I went in to eat and warm up. She came with me when I came back out, so she got some good rides down the hill too. After that, when the hill had melted, we jumped on the trampoline which was covered with snow. It was really fun and slippery. I thank God for the snow and that awesome day.

One thought after another...

         News flash = I love horses!

      

A lot! Speaking of horses...

• We got our 2nd horse on Oct 29, 2011! She is 10 yrs old, 15 hands, and a palomino. Her name is Gypsy. 
• Also Trixie turned 7,
•  and I found a new fort,
• and my snake finally shed,
• and Sasha turned 7,
• and we get to go skiing sometime in March,
• which reminds me that my  birthday is coming up, 
• and... WAIT A MINUTE! It's already February! Wow, time flies!  * Sigh * 
•  I am also reading the  awesomest book saga in the universe! It's called the Wingfeather Saga.
•   My mom  and I get to go on a field trip with Firefly's family soon, to some sort of museum.
• Who invented math and why did they make it so complicated?

• Yay! My basket ball team has gone undefeated! (So far, that is) I play basketball for the YMCA, and it is my favorite sport. (It's also the only one I've ever played.)

 I think that is about it for the random thoughts flying about in my head today.  Mustang

Me and Firefly

I met Firefly at our home school co-op, but the really weird thing is we had been going to the same co-op for 3 years and even been in quite a few of the same classes and hardly acknowledged each other's presence! Then my mom (Dee Ann) became the director of co-op and Firefly's mom (Boonie mom) became her assistant. The moms meet up at Firefly's house for a meeting and that was the first time we had ever played together. It was kind of awkward at first, but we got along good pretty quick! Soon after that we went to a co-op registration along with another friend, Squirt. The next day was her brother, Creator's Son's, birthday and we came over and played a long time. We've been great friends since! Through her I've gotten an account on Club penguin, meet many new friends, and had a lot of fun! We've had many fun adventures and she's like a sister now!                   


 Here are some pictures of our adventures!
