Caitlin tried to tell a story at dinner tonight, and everyone was interrupting her, so Mom tried to defend her which later ended up being her telling Caitlin to stop talking. Here is the reenactment.

Weird, huh?
As you know, Jamie made a plaque with my favorite quote on it. Well, yesterday was Jamie's birthday and this is what showed up when I tore the page off my day-by-day ME desk calendar:
Weird, huh?

Kendra's tooth
Here is a picture of my tooth, it's hard to see but it's there. If you get really close you can see it on the bottom of my mouth.
Here I am doing my new favorite thing. I love to bounce bounce bounce the day away, and I smile and screech the whole time.Sunday, January 13, 2008
Who's This Tiny Little Thing?
In looking at the pictures we took yesterday see what I found? Some pictures that we probably haven't seen since they were taken. Just thought I would share a couple-
Sorry Jamie, I just couldn't help it . . . remember those days?

Walking With Dinosaurs
Yesterday we (Mom, Dad, Hannah and Caitlin) went to a show at the Thomas and Mack called Walking With Dinosaurs. It was another deal where we were able to get a discount on tickets. It turned out to be pretty cool, and I got a LOT of really nice blurry pictures. Here are just a few examples. (We really could have used Amanda and Andee's camera!)
Afterwards I got to spend my afternoon doing what I soooo love to do, GO SHOPPING! Ooph da! We went to the old Aladdin which is now Planet Hollywood. We went to Urban Outfitters, H&M, Department 56, Sur La Table. Actually, even though shopping isn't normally my idea of a good time, it was fun being together for the day. I even got a kick out of some of the "new" fashions that I ran into, although they wouldn't let me buy anything (like a really cool plaid jacket) for myself. Ahhhh, maybe I am a little too old :o)

6 Facts about Me!
I was reading Amanda's blog, and since no one has done the 6 facts thing, I decided I would.
1. I love kids
I love kids and usually they love me. And by kids, I mean from babies to toddlers. When they get older, I usually can't stand them. I love kids, but I hate babysitting, especially for people I don't know. I get really nervous if they start crying, or if they won't go to sleep. I will only babysit for kids I know, and have had some experience with. My friend McKenna and I babysat these two kids for some people in our ward for a few days at certain times, and it went surprisingly well. McKenna said that they were usually bad, and that's why she asked me to help, but they ended up being really good. We took them to the park, and that's one of the pictures. So yep, I generally love kids.
2. I've been completely paranoid about being kidnapped since Elizabeth Smart was kidnapped.
A lot of people are scared of being kidnapped, but as my family knows, I have a serious phobia of it. Just the thought of being without my family for a long period of time (when I'm at this age) really scares me. I used to get seriously homesick at sleepovers, but thankfully I'm over that now. I'm getting less paranoid about being kidnapped, and getting more paranoid about being home alone. Sure I'm fine with it, but some kids at my school seriously scare the crap out of me, and they live down our street and yes, they are stupid enough to try to get into the house. If I'm walking home alone, they tend to either just follow me and be like "Can I get some water?" or something, and if I ignore them or say no, they start cussing at me. Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to let them in. So anyways, my point is that I can't stand the fact of being away from my family for a long time, and maybe not coming back.
3. I've recently realized that I am picked on and teased, as much as I pick on and tease other people.
Being the youngest, I do always feel sorry for myself, thinking that nobody likes me, and that I am extremely picked on. I remember one experience that I don't know where Amanda was, but Hannah tied my to a chair and put a sock in my mouth. I've never realized it until about a few days ago, that Hannah was picked on probably worse than me, since before I was born. Hannah was also shoved into a box by my brother, and she now has Claustrophobia. So I recently realized that I am really lucky to have all the things I have, and that I am not picked on that much more than anyone else, because I have been born into a family who makes fun of EVERYONE. Even if they don't know them.
Are my eyes open!?
4. I say a lot of stupid things.
I don't mean to, but I do. When we were in Utah recently, I was playing Wii tennis, and I lost to the computer. I one a game, and lost two. Trevor was teasing me because I lost to a computer, and I said "I did better than I could've!". I say a lot of stupid things, especially around my family, and my Cross Country team. Usually when I am around people I don't know, I just don't talk so they won't think I'm stupid. A lot of people say that I am a blonde at heart, and things like that. But I guess I am. Either way, what is so wrong with being blonde? Who started the whole "dumb blonde thing?" (I'm not sure if blonde is spelt right...because when I put blond it had the little red line under it.)
5. I like taking pictures.
I'm still not very good at it, and I still have a little digital camera, but I still love taking pictures. I don't usually take very good pictures, but I have taken a few O.K. ones. Here are some...
6. I have a smart and stupid dog.
I have had Winky since about the end of 5th grade, so about 5 years now. I first got her as a Birthday present, and she was so tiny and cute. She still is cute, but she's gotten bigger, smarter, and more stupid. My other dog Stumpy, fell into the pool one day, and Winky jumped in after him, trying to show him how to get to the steps of our pool. It was a failed attempt, but he eventually got out, and it proved some of her intelligence. The same week, she developed an extremely annoying and stupid habit....watching TV. She will jump up onto the TV and try to bite at the dogs or cats that are on it. She still watches intently, and still tries to bite at the TV, even if she hurts herself during the process. Also, you will start to pet her, and when you stop, she puts her nose under her chin and sort of thrusts it up onto her back, until you pet her more. This also proves her stupidity. Although she an be really annoying and stupid sometimes, shes still a great dog, and I love having her as a pet.
So I guess now some other people in our family should do this too.
