Mean flies and Nice praying mantice






Hey everyone, i just want to tell you what happened to my brother's and my dad who went out to pic blackberry's. They were walking along a railroad track picking blackberry's when all of a sudden someone starts crying and everyone started crying and by that time they realized it was bee's( or mean flies) and they all started running or hurrying along when they realized they left one of the poor evil twins!(Logan)But it was only for a moment when they realized they left him! So they ran as fast as they could while the bee's(or mean flies) were chasing them down the railroad track! But finally they think while the sting of torture was on them and they hid beneath a bush. And fortunately they lived! When it was safe they got up and called mom (Praise the lord for technology!) and mom picked them up and they got home safely. It got very crazy when they got home. There was brother's crying,talking, and asking for food! And that is some thing I'd like to call crazy!(Especially at a time like that!) They all had pretty bad stings like Logan for instance;PRETTY BAD. Dad seemed fine. He was making humor out of it!(like he always does!)And the other's were just crying because it stung.(it didn't look to bad at all)



Now, about the praying mantis. It is a nice bug according to Levi(one of the evil twins). And of course he's the one who named bee's-mean flies. Why is the praying mantis a nice bug you may ask? Because it does not bite or sting! My dad discovered one at a church in Greeley Hill's. He let Levi and Logan hold it and of course i did not even touch the thing or get near it. Some of you may have known me as someone who catches bug's with my bare hand's. But that Mackenzie is long gone! I got's to go!

Back to school!


I just thought that this picture is cute!


Me and my sibling's just started school yesterday.........which was Wednesday. We are on a complete schedule for each and everyday during school day's! I'm glad we started school now because i don't feel like I'm lazy! But I'm not completely happy about the schedule! I wake up at 6:45 a.m and to 8:30 i have to do my routine plus my chore and getting my brothers something to eat. At 8:30 we have devotion's, prayer, and we practice song's. And 9:00- 12:00 a.m we do school. 12:00-1:00 is lunch. P.E. is 1:oo-1:30 and my computer time and Nolan and Justina's instrument practice is 1:30-2:30. And to 3:00 it is reading time and quite time. And no movies til' after dinner,chores,and bath's! So we basically have the whole in tire day planned! It's just like actual school!




Oh........i have to tell you what my optimistic mother said! I was looking through my b-day card's asking if i should keep the ones from her and dad, so i can enjoy looking at them in the future. And she said: No, they will only get you depressed! And i asked: Why on earth would i be depressed? And she said: Because when you read it in the future you'll be wishing and saying ''I wish my mother was still alive.'' Can you believe she said that! But of course some of you can believe that. It didn't upset me, i actually thought it was funny. I love to tell it to people. I was not majorly surprised because she's like my optimistic grandpa. But there not really depressed they just like to irritate us in that way.(lol)


Justina plays the piano a little! She is still learning and Nolan is learning how to play the trumpet. I'm not doing any instrument right now. Ummmmm i think that is it for now.

On the road again


Hey everyone, me and my family are on the road again! It was pretty hard saying good-bye, but you got to hand it to me i did not cry! But of course i was excited about seeing all my other friend's and family. We are now in Washington, but our trip up here was slow because we went to Disneyland. And then we went to see the Yosemite which was sooooooo beautiful! But it's one of those park's where you got to have at least a whole day to see everything. Me,Mom,and Dad enjoyed seeing the Yosemite,but we were only there two hour's because it was Wed.. So we didn't get to see a lot of it. The evil twins of course was interested in nothing except for jumping and running around the theatre room that the Yosemite park had. And it was of course dark and full of people trying to watch the film about the Yosemite,but they can't watch a film with the evil twins running around the front platform laughing. I have learned not to get embarrassed as much because i know they will not stop! We just went to godfathers today with the Sunquist's. They have seven kid's going on eight so when we get together it's a crowded restaurant! I love to see people's faces and comment's when were together. Me and my sister Justina are good friend's with the two oldest. We love talking with them because we can relate with and understand each other. One of the thing's this year I'm hoping and praying to go to is the Yakima missions conference they have great preaching and i want to see all my ministry friend's that i can only basically see at mission conferences or preacher's meeting's. So far my parent's say we are going! So i am very excited! Me and my sibling's are starting school the day after tomorrow. And i think I'm the only one who's KIND-OF excited about school this year! Me and my sister are so funny we will say we love school one day and then the very next day we will say we hate school! But i think most kid's are like that.(i think) We are doing the ACE program this year so i hope it's a little easier. But i don't know? That's all for now!
