Okay... so the other day, while I was explaining something funny one of the kids I babysit said, Farah said I should write a book. Well right now I don't have time to do that... so I will start out with it on blogger. haha. Anyways, Dax is pretty funny... so he has chapters 1-8. The most recent thing Dax did was show me the many different personalities of a 20 dollar bill. I was changing his diaper and the only thing to keep him entertained was a nice, crisp 20 dollar bill. So of course being the nice person I am, I gave him the money.
"This is a ticket!" he told me.
So I explained, "No Dax, its money. That is a 20 dollar bill."
His reply was..."NO MEAGAN MAKI. ITS A TICKET."
We went on with one of those yes/no fights. Except I was saying money and he was saying ticket. I finally gave in and said, "Alright Dax, its a ticket."
Then of course, he decided to act like David and change his story, claiming that really the "ticket" was money. Now he was fighting with me, and using what I had already said against me. We had almost decided that it was in fact money... when it magically turned into a skateboard. Dax flattened the now crumpled up bill and layed it on the floor, then stood on it as if it were a skatboard. He did this for a while until I had to leave and take the money with me.
I never knew money could be so many things!! hehe. That kid is great.
Ahh girls night was awesome.
It started out slow... we got food, tried to do something fun, and watched a terrible movie [[we turned it off it was so bad.]] Then something just clicked and we had so much fun. First we decided to do some prank calls. While claling Greg, we were trying to decide what to say and he answered. I'm pretty sur ethe first thing he said was "Thats a lot of voices." So we kind of blew it. I think he was very tired, because he began singing about a frog in a pond. Extremely entertaining!! Then we sang him twinkle twinkle little star. Amazed by our endless alent, Greg took to the phone to Sydnee's room so we could sing to her too. That was pretty much the best call right there so we had to end the prank calling or it would all be downhill.
Katy had to work this morning so she went to bed early in la's room. We all slept in a circle downstairs and were talking for a longggggggggg time. I think we layed down at 11, and me Meg and Natalie did not sleep until 4. I guess you could say it was a long night. I loved it though. :)
This is going to be very random.
Right now I miss Talicia and Katy, I just talked to them three minutes ago.
Added to the list of people I miss: Lauren [[she comes home today yayy]], my cousin Brianne [[I will see her Friday though :)]], and Brian cuz he completes the club in Lauren's closet. haaha. I also miss all the Isbells in Alabama, especially Emily. She can color for hours and not get bored. I kind of feel like coloring right now.
I went and saw Benchwarmers last night and it was so funny. Talicia was like... whoa that guy looks like Gus [[the person I babysit for]], and in the movie his name was Gus. It was weird. lol. I can't remember all the funny things it said...but it was great.
Right this second my neck hurts very badly. Of course it should since I fell and hit it on the pool table... but still. grrr. I don't like it. But before I fell I was playing on the big red ball with Mackenzie and we flew off it a couple times. I had her on my back, like a piggyback ride, and we would kind of glide onto the ball and then roll off the front. I kind of wish I had one of those balls right now because it sounds really fun. hahaa.
So today I had a great day babysitting Mackenzie and Saige. It was very eventful, they are pretty interesting kids. First we played outside. When I first asked if they wanted to go outside, not only did I get a yes, but Saige jumped up and down like she had just won a billion dollars. So she tried to convince me these rainboots were hers, but really they were 3 sizes too big. Once we were outside, she flicked dirt in her own face, so Talicia had to carefully remove huge mud chunks off of her face. Then Mackenzie, Talicia, and I dug a huge hole and stood in it. That was great and I don't know why. So once we decided to go in and have dinner, Mackenzie played with the silly putty. Lately Dylan has been complaining it keeps getting smaller and now it is non-existent because she got it stuck in her hair. We got it out, and she pretty much loved us for that. Later, after dinner, we watched the Big Comfy Couch. Now personally I do not like that show, but they loved it so I enjoyed watching it. me and Talicia kept laughing becaus ethe girl on the show is sooooo weird, but then she started doing mime and so did the girls!!! SO we joined them of course. COul you imagine walking in a seeing us all four pretending to be trapped in an invisble box?? Yeah we're cool. Then the girl on teh show said somethign about Clown Town, and I have to take Saige there sometime. this could be a problem because i have no clue where this place is but Saige is set on going there.
All in all it was a fun day. Now I can't sleep and I don't know why.
Quote of the day: "omgximsohardcore (10:20:33 PM): hold me back meagan." I am holding her back for all those who wanted to know. :)
I haven't posted anything in so long. Its crazy. But I'm not the only one. I have been checking on everyone's to see if they have written anything lately, and besides Farah... I have been reading the same posts for at least a week. Anyway, I'm not sure what to write about. Its been a couple weeks since I got home from Alabama. Things are different with my family, my friends, our church, and I even have a job. Usually I am all for change. Something about it is exciting, but so much in so little time kinda freaks me out. But having so many changes and differences has really shown me one thing: God is always consistent. In the good, bad, sad, fun, and strange times God is always there. I don't know what I would be doing right now if I didn't have Him to turn to.
I hate when people whine or complain. So I am going to be mad at myself later for being all sad on here.
I really miss Alabama. Washington is pretty and my family is here, but I miss Alabama a lot. Today Katy and I developed our pictures and basically cried looking at all of them. Then whiel driving we heard a million songs that reminded us of our sweet car rides with Matthew. That made us sad too. Then we went to Wal-Mart, which is where we spent a lot of our time in Alabama [[haha it was great.]], and that made us sad too. I wish all my Washington friends and my family would all migrate. That would be so nice. So who's with me?
Today was really random and it was totally sweet. I woke up and took a shower and right when I started helping cleaning up, Matthew called.So we decided to go to the mall in Montgomery and meet up with Shea. We all [[me, Matthew, Shea, Katy, talicia, and Cameron]] had lunch at the mall and went ice skating. Of course, since we were all wearing flip flops we had to buy some socks, but that is the good part of having an ice rink IN the mall. After that we went go-carting and watched Shea hit in the batting cages. I got owned teh first round of go-carting, but my cart was like, rigged. The second rounf I owned everyone, and lapped Katy adn Matthew. After that we had to go to Wal-Mart to get the ingredients for dinner. yummm. We also bought a lot of candy. Other ingredients for dinner were chicken, pasta,a nd alfredo sauce. Yes I made the awesome pasta dinner. It was better than ever, and we also had PINEAPPLE!!! yayyy. lol. Then when the guys left to go to Chris' house, we had an awesome girls night. We, being me, Katy, Talicia, Shea, Trudy, and Farah [[and Cole]], watched a total chick flick, then went searching for scary places around Alabama. First we went to the house of crosses. This house is supposedly very scary and it had 1,000 crosses over their whoel property. We got out, all besides Farah and the baby, to look more closely at the crosses and all the writing. then all the sudden this guy starts walking out, and Trudy and Shea just about left me and Katy to die at this scary house. We leaped over the backseat into the Durango and discovered the guy was actually nice. Except we realized all teh guys in scary movie start out being nice, but then they kill you. Or in Shea's case they ask for your number. Yeah he wanted her. lol. So then we went searchign for this white lady, and this hill. We found neither. Now we are all back at Shea's watching her comedy tape and I am pretty much tired. Like really tired. Anyways tomorrow we have some planned randomness with Matthew and Cameron. I am pumped. More later...
Yesterday we finally had a day that was sort of "unplanned". Since we've been here we've had set things we have had to do... they were all fun and amazing but it was a good change of pace to sleep in. Matthew picked us up after he got out of school around noon, and we went to his friend Mitchell's house. That's where we went fourwheeling. It was AWESOME!!! Okay so... me and Matthew got owned by Katy and MItchell. We were going through this deep mud puddle which was bad to begin with, and then Mitchell and Katy came up behind us and splashed us with a HUGE "tidal wave" of muddy water. We were totally soaked with brownish orangish muddy water, even in my hair. It wasn't even that hot outside, so when Matthew decided to full throttle down this red dirt road, I felt like I was in Alaska, not Alabama. We decided that we could only handle that coldness for a few seconds and then we had to slow down. So besides getting owned, I like fourwheeling in the mud a lot. Later, after we took showers went to Chris and Trudy's house so everyone could play poker. That's when me, Talicia, Katy and Farah decided to play this sweet game counting how many doors were unlocked and led into the house. It sounds dumb but it was really fun. [[There are six total unlocked doors]]. Then we also counted stairs with Dax, watched Cameron Chris and Matthew play Xbox in the movie theater, searched the entire place for Talicia [[Matthew spotted her on the security camera but we thought that she was a tree because there is this tree that looks like a person]], had a great BBQ chicken dinner and on the way home had a talk about air quotes, which you can offically do ten of them before you will go off teh road driving. It was a fun day. We won't be here very much longer. Sad.
