Hello everyone! Today I’ll be telling you how life at my house works with 4 dogs. When I wake up, it’s my least favorite time. 
The puppies run and pounce on me! When they finally settle down, I eat breakfast. While I eat I always hear a suspicious sound. I go over to look at what is making that sound, and I see the dogs licking the dishes in the dishwasher! When I’m done eating, the puppies follow me upstairs. I get dressed while the puppies pester me until my head is about to explode! I let them out of my room to go pester my sister. When I’m ready for school, the puppies are usually in their crates because my dad is at work and my mom will take me to school. Witty whines like there’s no tomorrow when he’s in a crate! 
I go to school with the whining sound blasting out of the house.
When I come home from school, it’s another one of my least favorite times because the puppies pounce on me again. An hour or so later, my sister feeds the puppies and I feed Prudy and Bailey. Then I have to take them outside to go to the bathroom every hour or so. Prudy’s extra challenging because she has anxiety. She’s afraid of her own shadow and she used to not even eat! She makes you carry her downstairs to eat or go out. But even though my dogs are really annoying sometimes, they’re super cute and bring such joy to our lives. That’s my life every day during the school week. If you want me to do a part 2 of this blog to write about my weekends, I will!

Today I’ll be telling you how to make these pinecone owls! Let’s start. Here are the things you’ll need:
Today I’ll be telling you about my journey of dancing and diving through the years. When I was very little, I did ballet and tap dancing. I remember getting up, putting on my tights, tutu, and tank-top. I was pretty good at ballet, but not so much with tap. In kindergarten, I was in the KG dance show after a play. In the play I was a squirrel, but back to dancing. In 2nd grade, my dance theme was Sleeping In. My prop was a teddy bear and my costume was PJs! In 3rd grade, my theme was together. I didn’t have a prop. I danced to the song, “You and me Together” by Hanna Montana. 
Now we’ll talk about diving. 
I started when I was 7 in a diving camp at Stanford Diving. I did that for 2 years until I moved into an actual class. My coaches for the camp were Sloan and Keira. My coach for my class was Todd, but he moved to LA so then I had Zach. When my family moved to NC, I started diving at Duke Diving (I’m not a fan I just dive there).
Today I’ll be telling you about my trip to London and Paris (I didn’t plan that) over the summer. BTW there is a quiz at the bottom. On the first day my sister and I stayed home because we were so tired from the jet-lag. My parents went on a double-decker bus. 
Quiz of the blog: How do you say bye in French? is it…
Up until now, at least. The first day it snowed, I was so excited. I looked out my window and saw a winter wonderland. Everything was white! I ran down stairs as fast as I could. Thump! Thump! Thump! I ran outside without a jacket or shoes, and stuck my hand in the snow. Then I ran into the kitchen and made pancakes for a yummy breakfast. After that, I got dressed and went outside with my dogs. Witty was so funny, he just stuck his head right in the snow!
I’ve been having a YouTube channel for about a year and a half. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRrQmX9nVMxAwWiY8zorf8g is the link. I do stop motions with my American Girls. How you do stop motion is you first have your doll or something inanimate and take a picture. Then, move it just a little, and take another picture. This part takes hours, so just put on your favorite movie, and start stop motioning! Then, I import all the pictures onto a computer or laptop, and then import those photos onto iMovie. 
Then I start editing! This process is very complicated, so I won’t go into much detail. Then I upload that video onto YouTube! Occasionally, I don’t post stop motion videos, like my “Baking With the AGs!” video, my “The Sleepover” video, and my “HUGE American Girl Christmas haul! (Tree, stockings, rain deer, and more!” video. I hope you enjoyed! Bye!
The whole neighborhood is lighting them, too!The Ronald McDonald house lets people who have sick children who are in the hospital stay for free! It is a fundraiser to support them. You can make your own luminaries with stuff from your house and I’ll show you how. The things you need:
We already decorated, and my room looks like Christmas exploded in there! In my room, there is my bulletin bored next to my door, and I put star Christmas lights across it. 
Next to that, there is my bookshelf where I put stuffing to look like snow, some fake glittery reindeer, and some small fake Christmas trees. 
next to that, is my window, where I put 2 garlands, one on my window, and one on my windowsill. Under my window, There is a small real Christmas tree.
Then I have my nightstand, where I have a beautiful Christmas scene. I have “snow” all over it, 2 Christmas trees, one is sparkly and turquoise, the other is even smaller, and silver. There are also the same sparkly reindeer as on my bookshelf. Hanging over my bed, I have a light-up love sign that I keep up all-year round, so I put an elf hat on the “O” and put a stocking hanging from the end of the “E”. Next to my bed, there is my dresser where I put “snow”, yet another fake Christmas tree, another sparkly reindeer, a snow globe, and a stuffed snowman and reindeer. Then there is my door to my bathroom. In my bathroom, I have a soap bottle that has the snow and a girl riding her bike. I have an ornament that says joy that I put on my door to look like it was meant to go in it, and it does! I also have a sign that says “tis the season on my bathroom mirror. And that’s it!
Then one bright sunny day, my mom and sister, Sarah, came home with 2 puppies! They didn’t even tell me they were at the pet shelter! My sister adopted them under her name, since she wanted to practice being responsible enough to adopt a dog when she grows up and moves out, although she is already 18 years old! Turns out, they were brothers. Witty is white all over. 
Rougy is black with all his feet white except one. We call it his missing sock. They sleep in crates in the laundry room. We call it the Rougy room, since we call them the Rougies! They were 3 months old when we got them, but now they are 6 months old.
