RUN AWAY!!!! EEK, Ive been tagged.

So Olivia decides to just go on and tag me, TAG me! Okay so I believe that I must now state the rules~

*Link to the person who tagged you
* State the rules
* Write six random things about yourself
* Tag (about) six people by leaving comments on their blogs
* And let the person who tagged you know when you have completed your mission.



Well this is going to be fun.. I could go on for hours about myself.... And it just so happens that I actually have a document on my computer titled "Things that urk me" but there are other facts about myself there as well.

#1. I have NEVER been able to choose a favorite food. I just like them all too much, so I never now how to respond when someone asks me what my favorite food is.

#2. Ive broken my right thumb, and my right wrist, and I almost broke my left thumb.

#3. My greatest fear is sharks, Im absolutley terrified of them.

#4. My hair cant decide weather to be straight, wavy, or curly.

#5. My odd sense of humor has often gotten me into trouble.

#6. My spanish tutor likes my accent!

and there are 6 random things about me...

now I dont really have anyone to tag, because everyone I know has already been tagged! Sorry for breaking the rules, but there really is no one I can tag! How sad is that?

The Latest Addition to the Connor Family

This isnt exactly the way it sounds, the most exciting next addition is comming in April (yep Connor kid #8). This addition happens to be in the form of my mothers birthday present, and the form of a feline. So little Mae-Belle (our new kitten) joined our household last night and is adusting very well. Were all so happy to have her, and we got her free thanks to our good friends the Clarkes!

The Summing up of the End of August

Weeell as we all know Im kind of bad about posting. But let me just tell you how I ended my august this summer.

The next to the last weekend of August, one of my good friends from way back in childhood, Emma Carter (I went to visit her earlier this summer), came and stayed from Friday through Tuesday. It was a blast to have her here.

The day that we disposed of Emma, we got 3 new arrivials. My aunt, and two younger cousins. It was lots of fun to get to see them for a few days, especially because they live in New York and we only get to see them a few times every year.

That saturday we went to Clarksburg (where my grandmother lives) watched a labor day parade wich two of my somehow relitives marched in. Then we went out to Crystal Lake, a small really fishy lake that I refused to swim in. But my little brothers and my cousins (from above^) had a wonderfull time jumping off the divingboards and sliding down the slide. I have a few neat pics of that.... maybey they can come later.....

My labor day was spent out in my backyard in the really hot weather with my brother Trent. All day we put up, took down, looked through, blew up, deflated, patched, and chose like a 8 tents, and about at least 10 air mattresses. I tell you that was a TON of work, but I enjoyed it. The reason (for those of you who dont know) we were looking through all that stuff is because on Sunday (yeeeeesss! this comming sunday) (which is only in like 2 days) we, and about a billion other (okay 25 other) people are loading up to take a nine hour drive to Lewes, Delaware. We will be camping there for a whole WEEK on the beach, in tents, in the sun, with a bunch of great people, including the Howards (Olivia, Emma, Willa, and Mr. Howard), the Hopkins (a ton of people including Ruby), the Bearss (sp???) whom I have yet to meet, Im looking forward to that, the Clarkes (Rachel and fam.) and Me and my Dad, Trent, Joel, and Cal. I actuall have to go now and do some more stuff to be prepared to leave this Sunday at the amazing hour of 6am.

My New Bathing Suit and A Night With the Howards

Sorry, but I dont have pictures of my new bathingsuit yet, mainly because it was only completed less than 12 hours ago. Anywho, my wonderful friend Olivia made this bathingsuit for me, and it will make more sense when I get pictures.

On another note, I stayed last night with the Howards, and we accomplished wearing our new bathingsuits in the shower to test the wet-abiblities, watched Michael Phelps (Go! Go! GO! Phelps!) win yet another gold metal, me and Emma manged to stay up till 2:08, and last but not least, we tied Olivia up without her having a clue. :D

A Weekend With the Clarkes

Bear with me here, I just thought to put these pictures in after I finished the rest of the post, so these should techicly come right after the picture of me in the pokey things, read on to have this make any sense.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Where to start.... Well, lets start with the Breast Feeding Walk. Me and the majority of my family went to the Ohio Valley Mall this past Saturday to support breastfeeding (a particular passion of my mothers) and the Clarkes went too. So I just went home with them Saturday afternoon. Sunday, my family came out to the Clarkes too, and we spent the rest of the afternoon eating and swimming in the pond (we didnt eat in the pond). And of course while I was there, the wonderful Rachel, insisted on a photoshoot at sundown. The following photos are what you get when you hand your camera over to the Clarkes.


^One of Rach's Faves^
^My Favorite far-away one^

Getting Caught Up With My Goings Ons

Since I last posted, I have found my ring, Ruby and Rachel came and spent saturday and some of sunday with me. It was loads of fun. And I really cant remember anthing else news worthy besides that. OH! Emma Howards birthday-tea party-creek romp. Lets just say we had tea, and we were all dressed up for that, THEN, we put on our rattiest clothes, and got covered in smelly water and mud. But oh, was it fun.
