I'm back all ready!

Being a member of the church is so amazing. I don't know what people do when they move if they aren't members of the church. Today some people came from the ward to help out. Our electricity went out last night so today they came and put all our food in some coolers they brought. Then they left and came back at around 4. They (with my help) washed some loads of laundry. Since our dryer is still not working when they left they took it to dry at their house. They also completely cleaned and organized moms room. And they folded clothes and cleaned the kitchen. Right before they left they vacuumed. We still haven't made any friends st the apartments. One of the girls who came to help clean is almost my age. She turns 13 next month. She is nice. She hasn't read the Harry Potters and hasn't seen the 5th one. I told her she would have to come over some time and watch it. She's nice.

We are all good. I still have not gotten my new cord for my camera but my dad said he ordered one. I can't wait till you all see what I did. And you can see how well I take pictures. My camera is great. Christmas we went to see the lights that blink on and of according to one radio station and my camera took a good picture of it. You could really see the lights. Grandma was amazed at how well the picture looked.

Gracie's birthday. Yes. It is coming up soon. I know what I will get her I think, but I don't have it. You know how at Walmart there are these animal sets. With a couple horses or something like that. When we were at mom's friends house they collected horses. They had tons. Horses, saddles, blankets, food, stables. There was even a little thing you could fill up with water and then pump it up into a hose like a marshy place. And ever since she saw those she had wanted some of her own. I won't get her a lot, but I could get her a few. I think they each come with some food or a saddle. Anna made her a necklace and decorated a bobby pin with beads that match. I think Gracie will get some good presents and well wrapped too. I went through the wrapping stuff and we still have a lot of it even though we got rid of have of it when we moved. The move was hard at first. Mom hurt her back and all, but she is better. And box by box slowly we are getting unpacked.

Sorry I haven't posted for a while. I wrote a post a while ago, but it would not post. So I tried to save it and it only saved the first line. Anyway, we are all moved in. Of course it is still a mess, but we will get there. Today mom is going back to the old house to finish cleaning. The landlord was nice enough to let her finish today. All the beds are set up except for the loft bed (a bunk bed without the bottom bunk). Because we don't have it. Mom promised us new stuff for our bedroom, and she hasn't ordered any of it yet. I guess I understand, but that means Anna will have to sleep on the couch.

Yesterday I went to my new ward. Gracie was sick and Anna went with Brandt and Sharlie. Again there is only one other girl my age there. She wasn't there but should be next week. There aren't very many Mia Maids or Beehives so they meet together. They call themselves the Mia Hives. It is kind of weird, but there weren't any Mia Maids there. If I wasn't there the beehive would have been all by herself. Like the other ward they need me.

Yesterday while I was at the apartment mom let me do some work. Even if it was Sunday. I got mine and Gracie's bed's made and unpacked most of my stuff. I also put the shelves in my sisters bookshelves so they can unpack some of their stuff when we get back from dad's. The back room is ours. It has the most stuff other then the main room. It is our bedroom, schoolroom, and toy room. Hopefully we will make it fit. Even though we got rid of a lot if stuff all ready mom wants to get rid of more when we unpack. I made a whole bunch of american girl stuff and plan to take pictures. I won't be able to post them because the cord won't fit into the camera. I will when I can. I love you all.
