Monday- the first of December
This is going to be the nerdiest thing you have ever, EVER, heard. I, Cheyenne Rainey, am actually excited about the first of December because it happens to be the beginning of the week, too. I know it is nerdy, but you can't blame me! It's like a fresh start almost. Okay, that's even nerdier.
Anyway, today is Sunday, the thirtieth. Today was pretty normal. I woke up, ate breakfast (scrambled eggs), went to meeting, went out in service, picked veggies, and came inside to blog. So really, my day was sort of, well, BORING. Except service and meeting. well, I gotta go. Bye!

This morning I woke up and asked my mom, "Aren't we going out in service?" We had planned on going out in service today. It was 7:30, and I was going to wake up super duper early so I could prepare turkey. No we are NOT celebrating Thanksgiving, but turkeys are cheapest around this time of year so this is when we have a turkey dinner. Mom said, "We were, but instead of doing three short days (9:30-12:00) I want to do two long days (9:30-2:30.) We are going to make turkey this morning." So I hurried up and did my chore. Then I washed my hands 7,000 times (The article in the watchtower made me want to be REALLY clean.) Finally mom said "Do you think you can get the turkey?" I said "Yes." So I went to the freezer and opened it AND IT WASN'T THERE!! So I ran back to the kitchen and said "Mom where is the turkey?" She said, "In the auxiliary fridge." I said. "Oh. I thought it was in the freezer. Whew!" So I washed my hands again and ran my fingers through my
Then I went to the auxiliary fridge. When I picked up the turkey I realized that it was heavier than it looked. So I kinda waddled on the way back to the kitchen. "This is a big guy!" I said. Then Mom said to put it into the sink so I did. Then we did the math that we had to take the turkey out at 3:30 so we had to put it in at 10:30. Then Mom opened the turkey package and took out the gravy packet.I named the turkey Carl. Mom found the giblets and neck in the end opening. She put the giblets in boiling water. Mom said we needed carrots and celery and I said, "Mom, why don't I get carrots out of the garden?" So she said I could. I got the wagon from beside the house and trekked down the 3-acre yard to the garden. Once I was there I realized the ground was too icy to get any veggies so I left the wagon at the garden and went back home. When I got to the kitchen I said "mom it's to icy to pull any carrots out of the ground." "Okay, that's okay Cheyenne." said Mom. First she had me wash and peel 4 carrots. First she said 3 only when I finished 3 she said "one more." Then while I did that mom cut celery. Then I pushed all the vegetables into the food processor. Then mom emptied it all into a pan and I stirred that. Mom took the giblets and the neck out of the pan and they were brownish-gray. Yummy! She let me try one. Then I stirred the veggies in the pan until they were done. Mom put them with the bread stuffing and I stirred that too. Finally mom and I stuffed the turkey, and then she put the turkey in the oven. Now I am blogging! I has been a fun morning so far!
This is the turkey. You can't see it because it's covered in foil.
This is the stuffing. The green is celery, the orange is carrots.
This is the seasoning left over where Carl sat.
These are the mashed potatoes. They are not mashed yet☺

SORRY!
Wow! Sorry readers. I haven't posted in forever. But anyway... I have been having a lot of fun! Sky moved in (he is my older bro.) We had like, three HUGE parties. One was at Tammy Kammeyer's house. The other one was at sky's house again. Then sky had another party. Oh! There was one more at Tammy's place.But that's not all we have been doing FYI. We have also been going out in service almost every day! I have 23 hours in! That's an improvement for me.Meanwhile I also have been doing my homework. So that is pretty much it! Tonight I had Ravioli for dinner. Then I colored with my crayons.Yeps. Daddy rented clone wars. I am planning on not watching it. YAY ME!! Tomorrow, I will write a lot better than I am now. I guess I need to stop. Bye!
FUN WITH CRAYONS!!

Another Friday, Ho Hum...
Hello, Readers. I haven't posted in a week due to a severe I-don't-want-to-blog-itis. But it's Friday again. But this Friday was the first Friday I haven't been on top of the world. I'm not down in the dumps, either, but I am not soaring. Well, as I just mentioned, It is Friday yet again. A week does pass by fast! I went to Friday school this morning and Nothing extravagant really happened. It was fun, but it didn't really highlight my week like it usually does.I did learn a whole lot on Ancient Greeks today. Did you know that the Olympics were meant for a festival of the god Zeus when the games started in Ancient Greece? I didn't and if you did well congratulations.
