I LOVE THEM!!
Friday is my second favorite day of the week. (Sunday being my favorite) This past friday was a very busy, but very fun day. Like most every other friday in the past month, it was cold and rainy, but that didn't stop us from doing anything.
On Friday morning, we just did normal things like school. I am currently reading the Chronicles of Narnia which I really enjoy, and I had a math test which always takes less time then my lessons. So I got done with school relativly early.
After school was over, we were rushing around. I went to the shops with mom to get some groceries. We did it as fast as we could because we had to get home in less then an hour. We got done with plenty of time to spair, but we ended up getting lost on the way home, so we made it home 15 minutes later then we needed to be. When we got there, Justine and her children were all waiting for us.We hurridly unpacked the food, then jumped in vans and took off.
We were heading for a dairy farm. I know it sounds like such a homeschooler thing to do (but hey, I am one and I am proud to be one) but we were taking a field trip to a dairy farm. My mom started this homeschool group for Frankston people. We are going to take field trips with them. So this was the first one. The ride there was pretty fun. We listened to the beatels with Justine. When we got there, we had the best hot chocoalate that I have ever had. Then we went to watch to cows get milked. It was actually pretty intrestering to see. We didn't have a big enough group to have someone actually tell us all about it, so we just watched. We watched for about 20 minutes. When we were done with that, there was this little place where we got to hold animals like chickens and rabbits and gennie pigs, and a few baby cows. It was so neat. They were so cute. Soon after, we ended up leaving. The ride home was just as fun.
When we got home, we packed up and went to Benjamins footy. When we got there, we found out it was canceled because it was too wet. I was a little confused about that because it has rained almost every friday durring footy, and they haven't canceled it before, but it was ok. It ment more time at the Plukes.
We went to the Plukes to spend the night. Jackie took us home right after we didn't do footy. When we got there, we watched toy story 2 while we ate sausages and chips (aka hot dogs and frenchfries). After dinner, we (Charity, Tamara, and I) talked to Matthew and James (Casey wasn't home from work yet). It was fun. James and I tried to get them to play the chocolate game with us. They wouldn't do it though. Charity, Tamara, and Matthew stayed out around the fire and talked. James and I talked inside till he went to bed. Then I talked to Jackie till Casey got home. When she got home, we watched coach carter, and put on fake nails. It was very fun. We all put them on. We decided to see who could keep theirs on the longest. Charity took hers off the next day. Casey ( who actually only had 3 nails on to start with) and Tamara took theirs off on Sunday. I still have mine on. I am trying to keep them on till at least tomorrow, but I don't know if it will happen. When the movie was done, we all went to bed.
Altogerther it was a GREAT friday! Have a great week everyone!

haha, sounds like you had a grand time! I love fridays too....even if I usually just do school on them, they're still fun! :O)
Does your Chronicles of Narnia have the original Pauline Baynes drawings? All of them? 'Cause I got a 7-in-1 book of the Chronicles of Narnia, which claimed to have the original Pauline Baynes drawings, but it only had some of them. Eg. when Lucy meets Mr. Tumnus, there's supposed to be a picture of the two of them arm-in-arm, but it wasn't in the 7-in-1 set.
I would imagine the wetness at the footy had more to do with how much the grass would be ripped up.
You spelled "Beatles" wrong, which reminded me of the time that Ringo Starr went on British European Airways (BEA), and made a sign that said "TLES", and held it up next to their BEA logo on the outside of the airplane.

I miss being a homeschooler sometimes...but being a college student is a lot like being homeschooled. I'm glad I was so prepared for it, especially the ability to sleep right up til you have to leave for class. :)
