Merry Christmas

Sadie here again... obviously as this is my blog, this year, I celebrated Christmas at my dad's place. It was Mom, Bianca, Thomasina, and I who went over there. Mom thought it would be nice for us to spend the time together and open our presents. Mom got Pokemon Art Academy, a big teddy bear, and a hat from Dad. Dad got mom a shirt and a mug with hot cocoa in it, and made him a necklace. Then it was our turn. I got to open everything. First was a stocking from Mom and Dad.

 No Bianca, I'm holding the stocking.

Ooo bracelets.

Mom made zodiac bracelets for us. There was a Libra bracelet for Bianca and myself and a Scorpio bracelet for Thomasina. 

Both for me. Bianca's gift is at home.

Mom and Dad bought me two lalaloopsy dolls. Mom just picked them out - Dad actually bought them. Bianca's gift from them was left at Mom's. She accidentally forgot it.

Then we had gotten a gift from my friend Sophie and her 'guardian' Laura. Though Mom thought she had taken all the pictures, she had forgotten some. Other than a lovely card that said I could share with my sisters if I wanted to, there was a stocking with cute little things inside - Thomasina took the little penguin and Bianca claimed the sunglasses... which is fine I guess... not that I wanted them... but all's well.

What was also in the box was a black boa scarf thingy. Bianca and Thomasina said it would be great for Leah, I was thinking for Zipporah... both do like black... Then there was a cute doll. As much as Bianca would like it, we thought of Riley. Then at the bottom, there was an ugly doll. We have heard of them but no place around here sells them. All of us were thinking of Zipporah... but then again, it's like all my friends have one so I'll have one too... then again, my friends lead interesting lives and I don't... not really... 

Trip to Georgia ^_^

I am 2 months late, so sorry. On October 16th, Mom, Grandma, and Aunt Nicole drove from our home in Milwaukee all the way down to Georgia. Of course we didn't one shot it, so we spent a night in Kentucky. We didn't take much pictures... I wish we took more. A surprise I had, though, which I had to take back is my twin sister, Bianca, went along. She didn't feel like being photographed. 2nd official day in Georgia, we spent a lot of in Marietta, a gorgeous town in Atlanta. Mom liked it a lot, she said she wouldn't mind going back there someday but with more money. 

At a park in Marietta. I love the fountain.

On the third day of the trip (last day officially), we were driving to Atlanta (the city) and we happen to find our way to the Altoona Battlefield. It was interesting to be at.

Memorial plaques of the states who lost people in the battle.

My home state. Wow.

We didn't take pictures of all the plaques. Okay, we did, but Mom didn't like how she could see her reflection in it and deleted most that had it -_-. But gosh.

After going through the field, which was so interesting. We went to Atlanta. After more photo moments that could have been taken, and weren't, we searched for an Atlanta mall for a specific store...

Uhm, can't imagine what store we'd want to go to at a mall... uhm... Oh right, I gave it away. It was a nice little store in a mall. Filled all of Mom's needs. Mom got a free pink lemonade - she was a happy Cwissy - what ever that means.

So... how much for the horse?

The morning after, we left for home. Again, it took a day and a few hours to drive back... especially since gas and stuff had to be bought. I wouldn't mind going back again someday too - and maybe Bianca will allow us to take her picture.
