Victor Sayings

Victor is my little brother. He is adorable, cute, and stubborn. He does some very cute things. (and annoying things, but we'll keep them out of the blog for today) He says some very cute things too. Here are just a few of his most famous ones.

Saying: "Johny Cash is coming to my birfday porty"
Translation: Johny Cash is coming to my birthday party
Back Round: Dad showed Victor a Johnny Cash CD that he got for Christmas. Ever since then Victor has loved Johny Cash, so dad got the idea to have a Johny Cash themed birthday party. Dad is getting an old friend to pretend he's Johny Cash. Victor says this one all the time.

Saying: "I want my new pwasify!!!!"
Translation: "I want my new philosophy!!!!"
Back Round: There is a song from the Charlie Brown musical called My New Philosophy. He loves it  so much and asked for the song ALL DAY LONG.

Saying: "Mommy! I AM A CHILD OF GOD!!!!!!!!!!!" (Yes he yells this one)
Translation: just what it says above
Back Round: He heard the song No Longer Slaves, and he says this part over and over.

Saying: "Mommy! Pray for me!"
Translation: Same as above.
Back Round: We have no idea why he says this, but it isn't the worst thing for him to say.

So now you know. If you hear victor say any of these things you now know what they mean.

If You Ask Me...

Some say you become officially "old" when you are around 40-60,

I say you are officially "old" 5 years from however old you are now. (sorry if you in the age range of 40-60, but that is the false truth)

Some say you stop being cute at the age of five,

I say you never stop being cute until you don't want to be "cute" anymore. (that is around the time your father is embarrassing you in front of boys saying, "isn't she cute!?)

Some say there is never enough time in the day,

I say there are 24 hours in the day and you saying there isn't enough time in the day just goes to show you that you are waisting your entire day doing something that is waisting your time. (seriously people! If we had more hours in the day, we would be complaining that there was to many hours in the day.)

Some say that you should do crazy things,

I say you should do crazy things if you aren't jumping of a cliff, dyeing your hair neon green, stepping on a cactus, or paying $1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 for a pair of sneakers. (ok yes that would be a lot of money, but there are shoes that cost millions of dollars. Just saying there are starving children in Africa shoo don't have shoes!)

Some say don't take advice from a kid,

I say listen to me, and maybe a math genius for math help. (even though if you are an adult you should know your math facts)

Some say you should go clean your room,

I say you should go clean your room right now, because if you don't, you will have a very messy room.(ok, I should maybe go do that right now:)

A Sleepover

Last night I went to my friend's house. We had some soup for dinner and then drove off to her house. When I got there I was greeted by a very happy and excited friend. I got my suitcase out of the trunk and got ready to have a great time.

We pulled my luggage up to the house and then my dad talked to my friend's mom and dad. We then went up stairs to talk. We talked for forever about what we were going to do, and then we ant back downstairs.

We made some hot cocoa for everyone, and then we served it. Of course we put whipped cream on top of our steaming hot drinks. We then went back upstairs, again. Right when we got up stairs we set up our beds. We picked our a movie and watched it.

There wasn't really anything else we did other than saying up really late, and falling asleep. In the morning we finished our movie while we cleaned up our blankets. We got dressed and brushed our teeth. Then we left to go back to my house, and that's about all there is to it. Even though it might seam weird, but I had a great time.

A Concert In New Jersey

Last night, we had a concert for a church in New Jersey. We had a 2 hour trip there, and then we set up the sound system. Dad, Ana, Shoun, Isaac, Hope, and I practiced some of our songs, and then we had our concert.

The concert went very well, and I had a lot of fun. I played one of my favorite songs, Miracles. It is such a pretty song and I think I did pretty well.

After the concert the lady who planed the concert told us that we HAVE to get some candy before we leave. Well, of course I got some. I wouldn't have let some good candy go to waste, and because she insisted we take some. Anyway, Hope got a Butterfingers bar and I got a crunch bar. After dad talked for forever, we packed up the van.

Dad told us to use the restroom before we leave so he wouldn't have to stop. Ana, Hope, and I went into the restroom. I had just started to wash my hands when Hope flushed the toilet and said, "NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, ok I am fine now." Apparently Hope had her Butterfingers bar in her pocket, and when she sat up, her Butterfingers bar fell out.

For all those out there who either care about the candy, or the plumbing system, both were saved. The candy bar was rescued before the toilet flushed, and the plumbing was fine because the candy bar didn't go down.

My favorite part of Hope dropping the candy bar in the toilet was that she dropped a Butterfingers bar down the toilet. Ha ha! (Hope)fully you know what is so funny. Ok that was 2 puns in one paragraph.

Overall the whole experience was awesome and I had a great time!

Memories

I am going to tell you a few things I remember from when I was little. It was recently my brothers birthday so of course my mom wrote about him, Andrew, my oldest brother. Andrew used to make these James Blonde videos and when I recently watched them, I thought that I could write a post about some memories. I guess I thought of the idea because one of the memories is about the James Blonde videos.

Before I get to the stories, I will just say that some of the details might have been changed for your amusement and because I don't remember every detail.

Once when Andrew was making a new video for his James Blonde collection. The "big kids" as Hope, my little sister, and I called them would always get on our nerves. We had a little pink princess scooter that we would ride around the neighborhood. We loved that thing even though it wouldn't go very fast at all. If I were to guess it would probably go about 1 mile an hour. Anyway, when Andrew was making another movie, he needed several things to use for transportation for one of the scenes. Such as scooters and bikes. Andrew needed to use the scooter and Hope and I weren't so pleased, but we handed it over reluctantly.

Hope and I then returned to our room to have a good gossip about how weird and annoying they were. We then spied on them until they returned the pink princess bike. Speaking of spying on Andrew this was one of Hope and I's favorite activity. We would put on our little pink coats. (it was the next best option after black especially because in all the barbie spy movies she wore pink) We would put on our pink shades and find some pens of hair clips to pretend that they were video cameras or phones that looked like pens. We would then hide all over the house and spy on on any annoying brothers we could find. It was a very interesting activity and we could practically anything for spy gadgets.

I am sorry but I have to go now. I might right about this subject again if I don't know what to write about. Bye for now!

Answer to Yesterday's Riddle

Ah yes those cute little purple flowers. If you guessed the riddle from yesterday, you know that my post today is about crocuses.

I always loved the way that they came up before any other flowers even showed signs of blooming. They seem like they are the bravest of all flowers because you can see them even before all the snow has melted away. Imagine this, you are at a big show and a little man came out and said, "Hello everyone! I am here to preform for you before the other flowers arrive, so sit back relax and enjoy the beginning of spring!" Crocuses are just like that because they are like an entrée. They give you  a little sample of the "real deal".

I have to say that they are my favorite spring flowers. I love them and I hope to see crocuses again soon.
