Grim Grinning Ghosts Come Out to Socialize!!

Halloween creeps ever nearer, as I realized while we were out walking around Anaheim today looking for a place to eat dinner. Almost every bus that drove by was painted with a Snow White Queen holding a poisoned apple or Mickey with a cape and fangs and said, "Halloween Time: Wicked Fun for Everyone!" We also passed a man wearing the traditional Mickey ear hat, but instead of just a plain hat, it was a pumpkin with Mickey ears! Halloween is my favorite holiday because you get to dress up! I can't wait to go tomorrow and see the stuff they put up for Halloween. Grandma S., Aunt Joy, and Dad went yesterday told us that Space Mountain and the Haunted Mansion were closed for putting up Halloween stuff. The Haunted Mansion would be, obviously, but Space Mountain is going to be Galaxy of Ghosts or something.
OH MY GOSH I AM SO DARN EXCITED!! ...for Disneyland!


P.S. ...also after October comes November... beware the birthday! Stake dances, Mia Maids, youth conference, here I come! :)

Something Fresh!

Well, I don't have anything to say really, so what do you do talk about when you've got nothing to say, and are tired of seeing that really old post every time you log in? How about... books and Charlie!
In English class this year, we are required to read at least 650 pages per quarter (to get an A). Plus, we have to read books off a book list, and they're all classics! Blech. I decided to read Little Women by Louisa May Alcott, and it surprised me! I was sucked in. It's not even that boring. However, it's only 520 pages ('cause that's so little, right?) so I'll have to read another little book to get enough pages.
And, I just have to say how much I love Charlie, though he gave us quite a scare a few weeks ago. I had just gotten home from Utah and was wondering when I'd see him. So I asked, and Dad was all, "We haven't seen him since yesterday." Well, I kind of freaked out, so later we went on a bike ride to see if we could find him. Mom told me they'd gotten a phone call from a lady who lived on Elm Street!!! so you can't really blame me. For those who don't know, Elm is a street that goes off Nevada Highway and is about TWO MILES from our house. So we went down there and were riding aroud the mobile home park when all of a sudden I hear Dad behind me yell, "Charlie! Get over here!" And, nicely as you please, Charlie trots over to us. Arrgh!!!
So, there's you update on my life. Exciting, right? Well, see ya then.
