Snow Day, Girl Doll Talk...

Hi Girls:)

I just wanted to say (real quick) that I had a snow day today because of the snow we are getting in Ohio. I probably will have school tomorrow but if the roads don't get plowed until the snow stops (that is what the road people do sometimes) then I might not. I don't want school but I do kind of want to...

Also: American Girl Doll Talk is asking if you have questions for Mary Casanova (the author of the Chissa Books). She will be interviewed on Thursday so.... I definitely put my question down onto the table!

Well I have to go shovel. I will work on my S&TW tonight and then I will set up the post to go up tomorrow.

Snow...Ice...Sleet!!

So my school had an "emergency closing". My mom heard yesterday though that the school was going to try to get us in through lunch (around noon) and then they could count the day as a half day.

It is nasty here. There is snow, ice, sleet (right now just snow and I think sleet). My mom is at home because she didn't want to get stuck an 1 hour away (where she works). So she waited an hour and then got a headache... I took the bus to my dad's office and was walking back from the bus stop... I got "hit" with either heavy snow or sleet many times. UGH:-)

I will post some more on the weather tomorrow or tonight.

Show and Tell Wednesday Week 12

Hi Girls=) Well First thing is first: I am sorry that I am late posting this:-) This unforunately may not be the last time:( This year my Wed. are very busy- but I found that I can set it up to post; so I may do it on Tues. and have it post auto. on Wed:)

So... earlier this week I was using my mom's old portable type-writer. I made Kit write some letters to Ruthie and her friend Samantha. I would like to share those photos with you now.

The red ink works the best but theblack also works.

I am honestly hoping to get some (2 or 3) videos up this weekend!! I will upload them, edit them and upload them onto YouTube, my homepage and on Blogger.

Have a Great Day:)

Show and Tell Wed.

Show and Tell Wed. is coming but it will be late (tonight). I had dance, and then homework (at 7 PM). So I didn't get it on. I will make sure to do it tonight.

I have to go to school (well eat etc.)

The Movies, A New Episode...

Hi! So my friend Caitlin and I went to the movie "Tooth Fairy". After that we went ice skating. Well while I was gone with Caitlin- American Girl Doll Talk updated their site with a new episode. This episode is available on their site and it is also available on iTunes.

I will update again on Show and Tell Wednesday :) I still NEED!- your ideas for future photos and Show and Tell Wednesdays. I try to plan S&TW at least 1 week ahead (preferably 2) :-) Please email ideas to agpixplace@gmail.com.

I am also doing a photo share until Feb. 15. Please email PHOTOS only (captions are optional) to lpictures100@gmail.com. I try to keep my suggestions/ comments etc. and photos separate:)

I have nothing else to say but... I am sorry I didn't get the videos up today but maybe I will get them up tonight or this week. I will TRY to upload them tonight and then work on them maybe a little today and over the week:-)

Show and Tell Wed. Week 11

Hi Guys,

So here is the actual photo for S&TW Week 11:-) Remember I said earlier today I wasn't sure when it would get posted... I was at my dad's office using his new computer- he hasn't transferred it to his desk so right now I get to because nothing "valuable" is on it!! Pretty soon though I will get his old computer:)

Ok- so this week I didn't actually plan anything because last weeks was planned for today but then I didn't have anything for last week so.... (LONG STORY!!) :-)

So this week I am going to show you a photo of "Kit Builds a snow man!" This photo is actually tricked because my mom decided to take this photo but unlike most of the photos of my dolls in the snow. She put Kit on my old step stool that my cat now sleeps on and then turned off the flash and took the photo.

The photo looks like it was taken out in the snow but if you notice you don't see the bottom of Kit because of the step stool!!- Pretty tricky huh??

Ok- enough talking time for the photo. Enjoy,

-Lily

PS: Please send me ideas for S&TW. Whether it be more "out takes" (accidents) or new ideas. Please email them to agpixplace@gmail.com. Also please send me ideas for photos (photo story ideas etc.) THANK:-)

S&TW- Delayed?

Hi:) I still am planning on doing Show and Tell Wednesday. I am at a computer (at the moment) that doesn't contain my photos. I will be at the regular computer by tonight though and should have photos up:-) Hopefully I will have the photos up tonight but if for some reason they may not get up until very late (8-8:30 tonight!).

Planning: If you would like to see photos of "out takes" or something among that nature please let me know by emailing me at agpixplace@gmail.com. Also you may send ideas to that email as well whether it be for photos or for S&TW. In the Subject please put "Ideas!" . I try to plan S&TW about 2 weeks in advance.

There probably will be a time when I don't put up a S&TW. I probably just forgot because I am pretty busy but I will try to get one up every week!!

But in order to do this I need inspiration. :-)

Got to go,
-Lily

Hi

Hi=) I thought it would be really cool to make a post on my dad's brand new computer. (He told me I could use it before he tranfers it to his desk. Right now it is on the desk where I do my Homework etc. So tomorrow is Show and Tell Wed. (reminder!!) I will try to get the videos up this weekend (serioiusly!).

After school I had my piano lesson. We are still playing Christmas music because next year I maybe outgrown the book soo,.......

Well I should probably get started on my Homework now. All I have is Math and World Lang. Explorations. OH!!- and to read. Currently I am reading the Rebbecca books and they are really good! I suggest reading them if you haven't already:)

Bye,

Haiti Earthquke

Today in school we were talking about the Earthquake in Haiti. I think it is very sad that so many people died and are injured because of the Earthquake. Haiti is a very poor country with very little and now has no money to build new homes etc.

In Life Skills our teacher told us that 17 % of the U.S is below poverty level. Unfortunately 50% of the WORLD is BELOW poverty level. Our teacher also told us about a few websites that help not just the Haiti victms but also poor countires like Haiti is.

If you go to www.freerice.com every question you get right you donate 10 grains of rice to Haiti. You can change subjects by hitting "change subjects".

Another site www.freepoverty.com you can donate cups of water depending on how close you are. You can donate 10 cups if you "nailed it". Or less. If you miss a lot it is Ok because you are still helping others around us who aren't as fortunate.

If you would like to help Haiti I am sure you can donate to the Haiti funds or the American Red Cross.

I know this doesn't have to do with AG but I think it is all important that we realize that we are lucky for living in a country that hasn't just had an earthquake as big as Haiti. I hear it had an aftershock (another earthquake) that was a 6.1. That is a pretty big earthquake especially for an afterschok.

I thought we should all be awared about these easty game sites that donate that I learned about from school.

Have a good day,
-Lily

PS: Please look for a new video coming soon!! AND: All photos for the photo slide show entry must be in by February 15th, 2010!!

Show and Tell Week 10!!

I can't believe it is Show and Tell Week 10=) I have to say though- I almost forgot about it. One of these days I probably will. (sorry in advance:-) The weeks I have dance on Wed. I don't get home until 7 so..... it is late and I am not thinking about S&TW. So these week I will show you Marisol's fall. I was taking the snow pictures and she fell outside but I took a QUICK photos (like as fast as "ZZ"). My mom took her in afterwards to make sure she was completely dry etc. So here is the photo.
