I wanna tell you about my Thanksgiving! ^^
Okay so I went up to my Aunt Becky's (she runs/owns a hotel with her husband Gary). It was really fun, I wasn't sure if I'd have a good day cuz I don't ever remember spending Thanksgiving or Christmas with my mom's side of the family. I think I'm a lot more layed back with my dad's, but I could be wrong. So, just a little family history, Uncle Gary (I just started calling him "uncle" like a year or two ago) is not my uncle. He is my step-uncle if there is such a thing. My Aunt Becky is not realated to me, my immedate family, grandma and yada, yada, yada by blood. She was married to my mother's brother, Steven, who died in an automobile actsident when I was 1 and a half. She got remarried about ten years ago if I'm not mistaken. Anyway, on to the story.
Becky's kids (my cousins):Jim(30-40somethin'), John(30somethin'), and Janna(30somethin').
Jim is married to Jakie(30somethin'). John is married to Sandy(30somethin). And Janna is married to Wayne(30somethin). I think.... I know that Jim and Jakie are married, but I could be very possibly wrong on the rest.
Jim and Jakie's kids(who I just call my cousins to simplify things): Bryant (14...it think he's a year older than me!), Brytni (13[half a year younger than me]ya know, Britny), Brady(11?), Bragen(1), and they are already exspecting another one. I don't remember how pregnant Jakie looked, if she did, but it's far enough to know it's a girl.
I don't know who else belongs to who, Steven (7),Shelbie (5?), Josh (4-6?), Sean (6), and then there are three babies....I think. Umm I think there names are Kenny and ..........okay...well. Moving on.
Brytni is a good friend of mine, I always couldn't wait to go talk to her since as long as I could remember....until a couple of years ago. She, and her brothers, started to take very much so after their parents. I love Jim and Jakie, buuuut I disagree with their way of thinking. The best way to discribe it would be how my mom put when I asked if the puritan religion was still practiced today what they would be like, "Your cousin Jim, when they beleive every single word in the bible is ture, instead of it being in metaphors" Brytni and her mother wear only dresses. They homeschool the kids, they only read books that are related to the bible, or ~is~ the bible. But the point of thios story is Brytni made me one of those outside headbands as a gift. She made every little thing exsept the yarn and the button! It is this maroon color and it has a red flower on it. ^_^ It's sooo cute! And it fits really well too. Hnnnn (<-happy noise)

Okay now about today. When walking home from Anne's house where I stoped to take a look at some of her newer drawings, I saw a total of 5 people. 3 of those 5 were smoking. The last one I saw was this man, who I'm guessing is in his 40's and he was standing outside a house, just looking at it. Smoking. And the other two were girls. Not women, not young ladies, but girls....7th graders. I recinized one of them as Olivia Lopez. I didn't see her at school today either...At first I saw a puff of white mist rise from around her (I was behind her) and thought "Is that girl smoking! Oh, no, it must just be her breath *I breathed out to watch my own breath puff...nothing happened* O.O She ~is~ smoking....is she is highschool? *I was far enough away not to tell, specialy with these really short highschoolers*
Oliva: *turns around for a brief second*
me: *gulps and looks away quickly and naturaly*

I really freaked! Oh, wait, she was at school during band, and even then I smelled a little smoke, but I just thought her parents smoked....I hope she gets busted really bad, this kinda thing can ruen your life!
