Happy New Year! I hope you had a good new years, just like us. Though Daddy was playing ESO just the day before new years and I didn't have anyone to play Minecraft with. On new years night, we ate some crackers, cookies, Reuben dip and fudge while we played a game of Uno. We also went out to do some shopping. We only got towels and stuff like that.
After that we ate at Applebee's. I was stuffed when we got home! About 2 or 3 hours later, I ate the mac and cheese I could not eat at Applebee's. Then I watched YouTube. I also watched dad play ESO for a little. Then went back to YouTube. We went shopping on new years' day. It was followed by a big Applebee's dinner. I got mac and cheese. Daddy ate two plates of riblets and two plates of chicken tenders with a lot of fries. Maddie and Seth ate mac and cheese too. The thing I want to learn most this year is to type faster. Like Dad and Maddie. I type very slow, and most people can type faster than me. With practice, I hope to get better, though! Ashleigh

I got a lot for Christmas. I got a skate board, and helmet, knee pads and elbow pads. I also got a number of stuffed animals, including a couple of little ones, and a pair of matching stuffed rainbow zebras. I also got a tea set, movies, a Monster High doll, a Barbie doll, and a stuffed dog, and fox. I also got a Troll coloring book, which I love.
Daddy got a shirt with a hamburger on the back of it, and a sweatshirt. He also got chocolate. I gave Maddie ear buds. We also got an Xbox1 and lots of games for it. I played with my skate board today. I also played Dragon City. I got a new dragon but I forgot what kind it was. It was some kind of ice dragon. It is cool. Ashleigh I know that I added this quote to my last post, but I wanted to take this post to say that I disagree with it entirely. Not only do I not see Christmas as a necessity- but I do think that we're here for ourselves! I mean, think about it- the human race has developed into the most advanced (known) race and it's all for the sake of self-preservation and making things easier for ourselves. If it weren't for trying to make our own benefits, we wouldn't have progressed this far at all!
Secondly, if we really want to go with the theory that we need a day to remind us that we're here for "something other than ourselves", then it shouldn't be Christmas! If our moral code is THAT important, then we should be applying it all the time... not just on certain days. On top of this, we shouldn't need to be reminded of something if it's that important. Christmas is not and has never been a necessity for me. I've said it in previous posts, but it's just a source of stress and sadness at this rate. I'd rather just spend the day relaxing with those I love... which hopefully will be a reality this year. Previously, it has only really brought ,me stress. Throughout the rest of the year, I try to live a life of peace and happiness. Christmas is advertised as such- but I feel that people throw themselves too much into things and forget to uphold these "morals" for the rest of the year. I don't know. Maybe I've just over-thought this quote, as well. I'll leave that for you to decide. - Maddie I love getting ready for Christmas. Daddy has already put the tree in the living room. I bet I'll get a lot of toys. Tonight I am setting up the stable. I am going to leave a plate of cookies for Santa.
We already put the snow men into place. Soon, we will put the Santa rug right in front of my computer! A couple of weeks ago, I made a Christmas ball ornament. I also got an ornament when I went to CCD. It is really pretty. Ashleigh On Thanksgiving I helped my Grandma clean. I helped her clean the cabinets, and the empty aquarium. I also helped her clean the chairs in the dining room.
On Thanksgiving we had turkey for dinner. We ate baked clams for an appetizer, and pizza for a little snack. For dessert, we had apple pie and ice cream! We finished the day with a movie after dinner. Ashleigh July 4th is in 7 days. I'm having a party on July 4th. To come to the party, guests must only wear red, white, and blue. Daddy can wear his blue Jeans and a blue, or red, or white shirt. I'm going to wear my blue dress to the party. All of my dolls are dressed already for my party.
