Martin Thanksgiving

The pies, the turkey, the cranberry sauce stuff, the gravy, and of course the cornpud. It was pretty strange not having Thanksgiving with the big family, and maybe just a little less strange having it 3 days late. Since neither the folks or the childrens had school off, Mom and Dad decided to postpone the holiday until Sunday, so Mom could have more time to cook us food (thanks Mom!). Everything was delicious, of course, but a part of me yearned for the Ms. PacMan machine in Aunt Janice's basement, or maybe it was the neverending escapades of yours truly, trying to put a candle out with my mouth. Nevertheless, the holiday was very pleasant, just the Martins and our friends the Copelands for dinner, Mythbusters, and The Amazing Race:
"If electricity was never invented, we'd be watching TV by candlelight."
I forget who said that, but i felt it fit the situation.
Turns out a human can not catch a bullet with their teeth, just in case you were thinkin' about trying that. :)
Also, aftr another quiet-time sledding outing ended in near-tears and a very frustrated walk home, if anyone knows any good sledding hills in the city of quebec (long not steep) then do tell me becausewe need one thats devoid of little children standing in the track as they situate their gloves. thanks a bunch!

ACC Championship, here we come!

It's time for revenge, Eagles. The Hokies are comin' to town.
After watching the family's favorite college team trump their archrivals, the Virginia Wahoos, the whole family has been put in a good mood, waiting with baited breath for the ACC Championship game against those cursed Boston College Eagles. After a humiliating defeat earlier in the season, all Tech fans are thrilled with a chance to take them down (It's all come down to this, Sam). In other news, Anna's birthday is coming up (December 3rd) and the horse she wanted so much was all out of stock :/. Mom told her today so she wouldnt be upset then and we heard result of that "painful" conversation for a while. Tomorrow is like Martin Thanksgiving so the smell of frozen turkey and scented candles are in the air....ahhhhh. My bros. are at a friends house, but I think I'll get one of them to wite something this week at least, if not later today. who knows.

30 days until Christmas
79 until Super Smash Bros Brawl
121 until the school year ends
1193 until my 18th birthday
woohoo!

give my regards to broadway,

Starting off!

Well, its been a while since ive actually been in Quebec, and I'm much too impatient to actually tell you everything that has happened since then. I also know that I said I would make a blog for a while, but hey! I finally got bored enough to actually do it! So since we came here, we took everything out of the big U-Haul that ate all of our possessions, put them in the house, and went to school. Also my parents got angry at most of the Canadian postal service. then our address changed. that was an ordeal. oh and then I went to massachusetts. woo hoo! that rocked socks. ill update this blog at least once a week, with news about the works around the house, along with some personal thoughts, making this way more interesting than my 'rent's boring ol newsletter. (its war, mom and dad) i promise to have more interesting blogs in the future, along with much better grammar (no promises on that one)

this is tubs, signing off
