The Tirteenth Day of Christmas....

I had a wonderful Christmas! Besides the fact I got everything I asked for, there was no family contention or fight at all! Usually, my dad ends up yelling at somebody, or my little brother decides to throw a fit, but nothing this year. Marvelous! But Christmas wasn't the eventful day; in fact, Christmas was over about 6:30 in the morning. The rest of the day was spent sleeping, playing with the new toys, eating, and other boring things. The 26th was most eventful. It actually started off normal. I woke up listening to my new iPod that dear old Santa so graciously left behind, got ready for the day (which has started about 1:00 the past couple of weeks), and went sledding with Chris Johnson, Sarah Curtis, Daniel Barton, and Nick Watkins. Chris and I planned this activity because we have been bored and the best thing to do when bored is hang out with other people who are bored as well. We just went to the MEC hill at the high school with a tube that Chris brought, a rickety death sled that Nick brought, and a slippery jacket that I wore. Because the number of people out-numbered the number of sledding vehicels, we took turns making runs and videotaping. This hill has two sides: the safe side and the not-so-safe side. The not so safe side has the mec on one side, trees on the other, and a pile of snow at the bottom. The snow bank was small, enough to propel you into the air, but us bigger kids went through it rather than over it. But, two kids of the smaller kind came with their nifty little sleds we assumed were also from Santa and they got some air! ha ha It was pretty much amazing. Anyway, the five of us decided to go up to the sawdust pits and try some of the hills up there, so we piled in our cars (Nick and Dan in Nick's truck and Chris, Sarah, and I in Chris's Mustang) and took off. Sarah wanted to get another sledding device from her house, so we stopped by her house. Chris parked on the other side of the road, leaving the passenger door out to the road. Sarah rode shotgun, and I squished in the back. Sarah ran inside her house, and I was trying to get out of the back seat. The door started closing, so I kicked it back open, and Nick took out the door in his truck. Wow... scary time in life. Nick was going to park right next to Chris, and with the door about to shut thought he was in the clear, but I had kicked it back open just in time... My foot was probably two feet away from the moving truck... Near death experience for me :). So with Chris's door now acting as a tire guard, we all gathered around the car to examine the damage. Sarah didn't realize what had happened until after she had went inside and gethered everything she needed, which is kinda funny because she was outside when the door was struck. We pulled the door off the rest of the way and placed it in the back of Nick's truck for the travel back to Elsinore (Christ lives in Elsinore...). The odd thing is that it didn't even phase Chris, even though he had spent the summer restoring the MUSTANG. I still hadn't gotten out of the car, so I was watching it through the now spacious window. Chris, almost happily, got into his one door car and drove home, in the cold, with no door, in the cold. Sarah took me back to my car at the high school, and I was about to go home, when Chris texted me wondering if I had gone home. Apparently, we weren't finished hanging out, so we all met back at Sarah's house and watched "Kong Fu Panda." ha ha not the greatest movie, but it made me laugh (JACK BLACK!) and I would recommend watching it. Afterwards, We went upstairs and played some cards and talked for a while. Nick took Daniel home after the movie, and Chris and Nick left after a while, so Sarah and I got to catch up. I heart Sarah Kay. Anyway, I stayed there til about 10:30 then went home. After a big day like today, I went to bed early, early being before midnight. I turned on my iPod and dozed into sleep.
