The Melissa 2nd ward Variety show

    Hey! Maisy here. On Friday, our church ward had a Variety show. It all started at 5:45 when we got in the car and headed for the Melissa High School. At 6:00, food was served. only half of the people were here, so we were first in line. The Tacos were extremely good. Not only was there TACOS, but there was COTTON CANDY and POPCORN.


        

Now to the entertainment: First of all, there was the art teacher of the High School who was drawing portraits of everyone. He was quite
    popular.                                               

Ace and I were both in an act. Ace did a dance from the wii game "Just Dance". I'm sure you ALL know it. It was called YMCA. He did it with some of his friends. I, on the other hand, read the 1st placing oral reading poem, The pig, by Ronald Daul. Everyone thought they were both awesome.

Eventually, the fun ended and we all went home. The Variety Show has now become a new tradition!

All About Ace

( Maisy will be typing the words straight from Ace's mouth. )

Hi. my name is Ace. I am 8 and I have been baptized. 

 

This is me at a blue bonnet field.

What's been happening is I have got a hair cut.

In baseball we've won 4 times and we've lost 2 times and we've tied once. Baseball is fun.

At school, i'm learning division and how to tell time. it is fun. 

Today is Sunday, the spiritual day and we do things like writing in our journals, visiting and serving friends, going to church, and spending time with family. Sometimes our family is crazy and we don't have time to mess around and stuff and sometimes we just can't make it but when everyone read, we say a prayer and go to church.

And now for pictures of ME!!

THE END

Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Everything Else in Between!

Hi, Wilson is taking over today. We all apologize for the absence of posts lately, *cough, cough* DAD, *cough*. Anyway, to day i am talking about HOLIDAYS at the G house. Let's start at Thanksgiving. For Thanksgiving we all gathered at The Ming's house in New Orleans, Louisiana. Here are some of the highlights.

 We started off our Thanksgiving Break with Pumpkin Stew, before traveling to Louisiana.

 Dad having fun at Raising Canes

 We saw an AMAZING Sword-Sallower on the streets, in downtown New Orleans. This performance also sparked a bit of controversy between the cousins. Some said the swallowing was fake. Luke, the actual person who pulled the sword out of the man's throat, said it was 100% real. It was fascinating whether it was real or not.

 Here we are, lighting candles in one the oldest churches in Louisiana. 

Sadly we lost some of the Thanksgiving photos, are just did not have any, but we had tons of fun any way.

In fact, we had so much fun, that the whole gang got back together for CHRISTMAS

Again we lacked in photos, but the kids got one present from grandma and grandpa that was really cool. 

Drumroll please.

Yes we got a Wii U. It was very well received and is very loved. 

Overall we had and awesome last couple months and hope to have more stories to tell, in our next post. Love- The G's

( Maisy's writing )
At the beginning of the school year, Wilson and I both won an award for student of the month! It was a very wonderful night! I did not know I won an award until I was called up to the stage! After the ceremony,we all went out for a very special dinner at Raising Canes! Boy, it was delicious!
