My Week and Weekend!

Hello my friends! =) Life been treating you well?

I think one thing I forgot to mension on my last post was that, I GOT ANOTHER GIG! I was asked on Wednesday to perform another song, a Christmas song this time, on the 19th of Dec., and I got my piano/vocal teacher to agree to accompany me! =D She's an AMAZING musician... I'm am jealous of her voice =P... But anyways, yeah! I'll be sure to let you know how it goes, when the time comes! =)

This weekend, my sisters and I stayed at our grandparents' house, it was nice! Very relaxing as well! We kind of just relaxed on Friday night because we got there a little late, and went to bed rather late, but had LOTS of snow! I was freezing! The bedroom I usually sleep in when I stay over has a bit of a draft, so it gets quite cold in there, thank goodness for super com but on Saturday, we helped our grandparents' set up their Christmas decorations.... It brings back a lot of memories =), it is kind of a tradition we have, sleeping over there for a few days to help set up their Christmas decorations =). We made a silly mistake this year though =P, we tried setting up the tree upside down =P, HAHA, silly silly! We had hte middle piece upside down, and we thought we were missing a piece, so my grandpa (we call him Papa) got creative with wood and tried to fit the tree together and eventually he said "Katie, can I see the other piece?", so I show him it, and he was like "we are all stupid!", HAHA, figured out we had it upside down =P. It was fun though! My little cousin Dallan even came to help us out, for a 6 year old, he is VERY smart and has a great vocabulary. We had fun with him, its makes it even more fun now that he can actually have a conversation with us, and we don't exactly have to talk in a baby voice =P, HAHA. Later, after dinner, we just sat around, some of us worked on homework, and at 9:00 my grandma, my sisters, and I watched a murder mystery on BBC, I can't remember what it was called though. HAHA, creeped some of us out a bit =P, but it was fun! Nanny and Papa have the most comfortable beds and bedding ever! =P (Nanny even gave me one of their pillows because I love them so much =P! YAY, NEW PILLOW! =D).
Today, we slept in till 10 or so =P. Nanny made us french toast and made us eat so much I thought I would explode! =P Afterwards, we got dressed, did make up and such.. Nanny gave me her pleather jacket, I thought I looked a little goofy in it, because it was a little too big for me. But hey, whatever! It sure kept me warm! We walked down to the market and got some stuff for lunch and dinner. HAHA, gave my little sister, Mady some snow to her face =P, and then she got my in the back of the head.... But it was all fun! =P She even managed to get a big clump of snow in the bag I was carrying too =P. Then we eventually got back, we did a little bit of homework, and my grandma had lunch ready. We enjoyed that, and then she got us to sit downstairs while she cleaned up and vaccuumed the house a bit. We worked on more homework, then my mom showed up, they talked for a bit, while I worked on my homework in the basement. Once dinner was ready, I stopped but man IT WAS A FEAST! =D We had a roast and homemade dumplings, think she stuffed us too full again =P. It was great though! Then we sat in the living room and drank tea and talked =).

One of my most favourite families in the whole wide world had a new baby! Little (this isn't part of her name, but I thought I'd add it in =P), Norma Darby =). I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HER! My new little sister in Christ =P!

Anyways, I better go.. I think my siblings are waiting for me to go downstairs and watch Heartland with them =P. I hope you all had a great week/weekend as well!

God Bless! <3
