War Eagle!

I went to Sarah's on Monday night to pick her up from Auburn. It was sooo fun.



Sarah is so excited I'm here



I am so excited I'm here.



Me and Sarah at Jonathan Peter's apartment's pool



Guess which legs are mine...



We went to Jonathan's apartment and him and his brother Michael were taking down a fan because Jonathan was moving out.



We were so proud



Look at how much we were helping them.



Yup



The next day we went to Con's apartment for hotdogs and a movie. It was really fun. Here are me and Sarah being cute.



Lerah helped me perfect the art of looking away.





Then Anthony walked me and Sarah out to my car and my tire was FLAT! Oh no!



Anthony helped us put on the spare



He was our hero.

Pictures...Part II

Okay, so here's the rest of this weekend's pictures. We had a Back to the Future Party Sunday night and it was pretty much the best.

First off, though, Christian and Brandon and Alicia did a skit in church last Sunday that Mr. Reid named "Apathy in Action." It was so funny. Brandon and Christian played two old country guys named Jed and Ted. You can watch the skit on Todd's blog. Here they are:



Mornin' Ted. Jed...





Kate and Alicia working hard on a skit.



Brandon in the playground slide.



Us eating some wings and french fries.



Shannon and Todd. One of Shannon's hotwing bones touched Todd's plate and he wouldn't use it anymore. That was pretty funny. We're sending Todd to therapy soon.



Rita and Shannon



David and Jenna



Me and David



Katie and Rita have such special faces...



We're a totem pole



Me and Diane



This picture makes me laugh SO hard. We played with the coupling feature on my camera again. I think we laughed for about 10 straight minutes doing this.

A Preview of some awesome pictures

Okay, so this past weekend was one of the best weekends ever. Nursing home escapades, Sappy's party, Mexican restaurants, sarcastic waiters, drama practice and Michael J. Fox. I'm at Sarah's and she's watching the end of "24" so I'm going to post a few of the bazillions of pictures we took.



Me and Hannah. Me, Hannah, Shannon, Amy, Annelise and Abby went and visited nursing homes on Saturday for STRIVE. It was sooo fun. (Except for the mean Nazi lady. Actually, that whole place was just scary, but we'll get there.)



Abby's excited.



"Hannahlise" and Amy.



All of us outside of Centrepoint Rehab center.



Annelise and Mildred. She was so sweet.



Hannah and Emily. Mrs. Emily spoke Swedish and she was really cool.



Me and Grace



Hannahlise were on the west wing of the nursing home so here they are representing.



Hannah painting Francis' nails.



See the "N" and the "W?" That's for NorthWoods. Oh yeah. This was at the rich old people place on John Knox and they were really mean. The mean German lady was like, "VAT do you VANT us to do!?" and all sorts of other things in a German accent. She was sooo mean. I almost cried. But I didn't. Todd laughed at me when I called him on the phone and told him. I'll remember that.



Me playing the piano until the German lady told me to stop because she couldn't concentrate on BINGO. It's bingo for crying out loud. It's all luck! Vhy do you need to concentrate!?

Then it was off to Sappy's birthday party at Old Bainbridge park. fun times!




Sappy downing a capri sun. (Or Capri Son, depending on what country you're in)



Todd and Laurie are pretty much the cutest thing ever.



Drew- the exception to my rule.

After Sappy's birthday party we took him to El Tapatio for Mexican food. While we waited for him we all piled in Diane's Kia. We fit 10 people in that thing! We're good.



That's 6 of them. There's 2 behind Brandon and me and Sappy are in the front. There were 10 of us.




They gave Sappy flan since it was his birthday party.



Christian paid $2 for Sappy's flan. Sappy didn't even like it, that's what's funny. I think he got a good deal. :0)




Sappy got to wear an awesome hat.






Chris and I rocking out in the car. Me, Sappy, Chris and Kate drove back to the Myricks together. They are awesome.

That was Saturday. Sunday is coming....

Quote o' the day

Pictures are coming. I'm just too tired right now. So instead I will leave you with the quote o' the day. Today in drama practice Chris Myrick was standing behind a music stand reading his lines and he kept staring at the stand and trying to say his lines but messing up and I finally said, "Chris, you memorized your lines. Why are you standing there staring at a music stand with no script on it messing up?" And he said, "Well, I'm trying to stay focused but there's music lyrics on this stand and it's like, "Hungry" and "Nothing but the Blood of Jesus" and all I'm seeing is, "We are hungry for blood."

The many adventures of Carli, Jenna and Calyn

Quotes o' the week:

"Hey Brandon, how many risk men did I fit inside my belly button that time?"
-Chris Myrick

"Hey McFly, you Irish bug!"

Me, Carlitchka and Jenna went to St. George Island to stay at her grandparents' house. It was a blast! We watched Cheburashka, Back to the Future (we're not obsessed...), and Notting Hill (well, just the good parts. It was on TV.), talked to Jake and Li'l Tay-Tay, DIDN'T get sunburned (ypa for me!), performed surgery on a disfunctional VCR, rescued Anastasia from the tape deck, and made banana pudding and enchiladas. Good times.



Carli slightly resembling the chick from the Ring.



Ring chick and Jenna



7-Up and Coke Zero do not mix. It's like, impossible. Like oil and water. Strana.



Me going, "Carli, what is up with your hair?"



"they caught how many sharks???



"Yeah, I"m in the mood to kill something too."



Carli and Jenshka



"Why thank you."



Yeeeessssss.



It's not 2 a.m...



2nd grade smiles!



I hate it when Carli has to leave! She made like a tree and...got outta here! Sad day. But it was fun while it lasted. :0)

You never know when a holiday will pop up

Most people don't know that back in 1912 Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York. This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost. The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day. The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as:
Sinko de Mayo.
