Today my friend, Nicole, and I gathered a big pile of wood and my friend's mom's friend came in a truck and we filled up the back of the truck all the way to the top. While we were doing that my friend's dad chainsawed a huge tree and when it fell it sounded like a explosion. It was the awesomest thing I had ever seen! Nicole took a video of the whole thing and she might post it. Church today was very good and taught me a lot. My dad got back from work right after church. The last week has been pretty uneventful except for the tree falling that was about it. I'll post again when something eventful happens. Oh, and I got a new flame case for my itouch. It's awesome! Okay, I'm done. Cya!

This is Awesome! My mom told me that I can write something down on my iTouch send it to myself by e-mail and then go on the computer and copy and paste it on the blog. So right now I'm on my iTouch. I really like the modern world. Anyway, yesterday my mom had a lot of paperwork to do and even though she wasn't real happy about that, she was was still happy and proud of herself about putting the awning up at 1:00 yesterday morning. I just think that's crazy. We invited our friends (actually, they are friends of Nicole and me, but our whole family knows them) to come over to do game night with us but they couldn't because they had to go out to dinner. Oh well. I had another weird dream that I was in a ping-pong tournament and I beat everybody (I'm pretty good at ping-ping not to brag or anything) and went to the final round against my dad and then my dream ended. I really wanted to see who won because my dad and I have a fierce rivalry in ping-pong. Okay, I'm done. Cya!
From, Nathan Last night I had the weirdest dream ever. Okay, here goes: My dream started with my friend, along with Nicholas, Nicole, my Dad and I in a wheelchair store and all of us had to pick out wheelchairs for ourselves. My friend and I picked out our wheelchairs way before the others, and when we went outside we saw some old ladies and they taught us some cool tricks on our wheelchairs like a 360 spin off the rail of some stairs. Then my dad honked a horn in his eighteen wheeler (I don't know where he got THAT!) telling us to get in with the others. So my friend and I left our wheelchairs, got in, and my dad jumped on the highway. (He didn't really jump but in a dream anything can happen!). Going down the road, we saw a plane that was really low flying with smoke all around him. His missiles got shook off the plane and exploded in the forest and started a forest fire. (The fire didn't get us) Then the plane flew higher and then went back down and landed down in front of us. We tried to talk to the pilot but unluckily two reporters were right behind us and hogged all the talk. Then, suddenly we were in a river with these weird guys heading toward Canada. Then my dream ended. I don't think a dream could get any weirder. Okay, I'm done. Cya!
From, Nathan For the last week we have been in our hometown meeting our friends and relatives and I've been spending time with my friend Josh. We've been playing ping-pong a lot of the time we've been together. We're just coming back from a christmas party which had so much food and a lot of interesting people to talk to. I hope the Bucs are going to win against the Lions. I'm so happy with all the other kids in the U.S. because its Christmas break! I like changing topics so fast! Okay, I'm done. Seeya!
From, Nathan I have good and good and good news and bad news. First, the good news. We didn't have to move from the buddy site. My dad went over to their office and pleaded with them until they finally relented and let us stay here. Second, the good news. Nicholas and I had a great time out there in freezing 25 degree weather, jumping on the pogo stick, throwing rocks, and running around like maniacs shooting our nerf darts at each other with our nerf guns. And third, the good news. We had a good homeschool day, and even got our grammar time in. Please remember to look at my last post that I posted yesterday, or you won't know anything about the buddy site and that would be a tragedy. Oh yeah, the bad news. We forgot to have a memorial service for my rubber band. I had this rubber band for 2 months before Noah broke it last night. My mom asked why it was special to me and I said because it was always there for me on my wrist. I used it to hold my jeans together to not get in the chains of my bike. I really miss that rubber band. But I did get a replacement rubber band today. It doesn't make me feel much better, but I'm dealing with the heartache. OK, I'm done.
From, Nathan I have horrible and good news. First, the horrible. THE BUCS LOST! 28-24. I am SO NOT HAPPY, and I blame it all on the refs. They made horrible calls. I like saying the word horrible. Anyway, the good news is that my dad got the slide on our camper fixed today, and so now it works. We had a safe trip to our campgrounds, but right after we got all settled and leveled out they said that we were in a buddy site and we had to have a buddy camper with us in order to stay here. But since it was already dark when they told us, they said we could stay here in the buddy site tonight, but we have to move in the morning by 4:30am. Just kidding. Actually we have to move sometime between 8am and 9am. Wah! I wanted to sleep in! Oh well. The Bieber's dogs back in Nashville were hilarious. One named Fletch was an easy going dog that never cares about anything. The other dog is named Blade, and she is super-excited spazo dog. She bit my hand, my leg, and almost tore my shoe up, but those were only playful bites. Okay. I'm done.
From, Nathan At the campsite we're staying at in Carbondale, things are going crazy! We missed a deer by three inches, a truck driver almost ran us over (he looked like he was drunk or something), a mechanic charged us a lot of money for fixing three little parts on our camper, we're out of water, somebody tore down mom's old house, and we went through FIVE propane places that were either out of it or they couldn't do it for some reason. Other then THAT we're doing great! Actually we have had fun like playing 4 square for an hour, riding our bikes, and just getting to spend a lot of time together. I know I've been pretty bad at posting but now I'll be posting every few days. Not at all as much as my sister our my Mom but I'll be posting.
I'll be be seeing my friend Josh R. today near Cinncinati. It's going to be awesome! (I put the R at the end of Josh because I know 4 Josh's. Josh B,C,R, and W.) My birthday was a lot of fun! We went to Denny's and ate free there because it was our birthday. Then we went to the movie Megamind which was a lot better than we had expected. Across the street from the movie theater was a family fun center that had a place that was like chucky cheese and it also had pool and unlimited laser tag which we took advantge of and played 7 games of it. And then we went back to the camper and ate some of a boston cream pie. It was sooooooooooo good! Well, I'm done. Bye! Cya! From, Nathan I've been on the edge of being sick for 4 days and now I'm finally officially sick. Right now, I'm laying in my bed after having medicine that makes you sleepy. I'm very woosy right at the moment but I'll keep on bogging. Today we worked (at least I worked I don't know about the others) on moving over to our new camping spot, on getting the bikes on the bike rack and putting the car on the tow dolly. I'm really worn out right now by that. Boston was a lot of fun. We got to see the statue of Paul Revere, see the place where the delclaration of independence was first read and the Boston massacre site. We didn't get to see the USS Constitution but it was fun anyway. Okay. I'm about to fall asleep. Cya!
From, Nathan P.S. Here are the pictures of my new (used) bike - I'm loving it! There has been so much to do on this trip that I've not had much time to bog (as my Uncle Tom says it). Well, maybe I've been playing on my ipod too much but you can't prove it. :) I love my new bike! I'll put some pictures of it on my next post (hopefully, that won't be too long). It's blue, my fave color, and we got it for super cheap! It has room for two bottles, a light (which doesn't work but looks good :) ) and its brakes work really well.
It's been rainy all day today, and I still rode my bike. It's been very cold and wet here. Whopee! We have had a fire for the past 2 days since it got down 45 degrees! Okay, I'm done 'cause we have to eat lunch. Cya! From, Nathan ![]() Today, my Dad, Noah, and I went to a 52.3 high rock climbing wall. I had to pay 13 bucks for it but it was worth the money. Charleston is about 5 miles away from our camp site and the wall is in the middle of the forest but at the top I could still see Charleston though the trees. Looking 50 feet straight down at the top is pretty scary! I made it up to the top in 45 seconds! The people there were very nice. Okay. I'm done. Seeya! From, Nathan |
