I MET MY TWIN!!!

So yesterday ( Saturday ) me and Kendall went hiking with her youth group from church. I met sophie. By the way she is like an irish version of me. We both have glasses and braces. We like country music, we are clumsy, and both play sports. Oh and we both can't shop to save our lives lol. So pretty much her parents call her a closet American lol. I told her it really isnt as bad as it sounds lol. So Kendall, her friend Gina, Kim, Sophie and I are going to see Twilight on tuesday :D and probably go to lunch or shopping after or something. But im glad I met sophie. O her nickname is Kansas. Umm by the way thats where I was born how weird is that?? there just seems to alot more in common between us the more we talk.

ME and Sophie in the van going wicklow trail

Today we went to church. It was a normal church service. So for the most part me and kendall have yet to fight at all!!! HA HA in your face dad and kim!! lol they had a bet going that we would fight after two days :D
So tomorrow the plan is to wake up pack a lunch and me and Kendall are spending the day downtown shopping :D I will update ya'll at a later date on what we got and how that went lol

Some Christmas Fun

Well we were about to end our christmas evening, and the fire alarm went off in the apartment. We all thought it was something we did (*cough* Kendall*cough*) jk anyway it would stop for a minute then start again. So we looked off the back pourch and people were going outside so we figured we probably should too. So we left the house ( with out chubbs.. IM SORRY!!!! it was all Kim's fault!!) and when we got down stairs we found out it was because a couple drunk kids broke the glass on the fire alarm thingy and yes that is the technical term for it. Dad the proceded to ask were the camera was. So kim after we found out everything was ohkay to go back home ran upstairs to get the camera. Oh I forgot to mention that the fire department came. And when me and kendall were on the back deck we saw dad and kim taking pictures with the firemen. OH and the firefighters were fixing the glass with tape.. Yea thats what they were really using.

IRELAND!!!

Hey ya'll,
I finally made it!! My flights were long and well really really long. Yesterday was really hard to stay awake I really thought that Seven would never come lol. That was what time I was told I was alowed to go to bed to be on the Ireland time. When I got here I was greated by Kim taking pictures of me. Then we caught the bus got breakfast and walked downtown for a while. ITs so beautiful here. Dad told me there was a church here that was build 500 years before Chris Columbus sailed to the US thats friggin nuts!! lol oh and their church was built during the civil war. Everything is brick and pretty I will put pictures on later.

Today we are going shopping downtown on Graphtin street ( that is so not how you spell it but whateva) Im told that its the equivalent to Rodeo Drive. Then we are going to have tacos for dinner me and Kendall are going to open our PJ's and going to church and listen to Greg sing in the choir. Then its home to sleep :D the Happy CHRISTMAS!!!
