wowzers...what a week!!  My whole family was here.  My aunt, uncle, and grandparents came on Monday.  Then On tuesday my other aunt and my cousin came.  My great aunt and uncle arrived from Hawaii.  Then on wed, my bro came home, and my other aunt and uincle came.  My house was JAM PACKED!! 

My 16 bday was on Thanksgiving, and I drove on the freeway for the first time, 80 mph.  Cool....

I went on Monday morning to take my written test to get my permit.  I passed.  cool!!  Then I did my math hw.

My aunt and I went up to the barn and rode all day on Tuesday.  It was her first time riding on streets and across a freeway.  It was pretty interestin.  We rode a bunch.  We stopped next to this gorgous field and tied the horses up to the fence os they could graze and we ate our sandwiches between them.  It was so fun.

Then we got back and untacked them, put them away, and fed them.   We went to Happiness Kennels to meet this awesome German Shepard, Dante.  But we couldn't meet him so we just left.

That night Sarah, Gustavo, me, Vanessa, and Josh went bowling.  It was a unlimited bowling they do on Tuesdays.  It was fun.  I got home at around midnight. 

Then on Wed. I just hung around.  I watched Spiderman with my family.  Then Laura came to get me and we went for a Bday frozen yogurt.  It was SO good.  Then I got home and had dinner.  lol. 

Thursday was My bday and thanksgiving. i woke up and had frozen yogurt and jamba juice for breakfast.  Then we had to look at old family photos (joy).  Then my dad and grandma and I went to get an apple and a pumpkin pie.  I drove. we came home and had dinner.  Then we watched Seabiscuit and I opened presents.

Friday was our last day with the family.  My aunt Sherry and my great aunt and my aunt and I went to the barn.  I showed them the horses.  We tacked up both horses.  Then I rode both of them n the arena.  After that we untacked Dancer and put her in a stall.  The I grabbed my iPod and new remote and took Talon to the bottom pasture.  I totally let him loose.  We galloped all over the place.  It was so much fun!  Then I took him back up, untacked him, and let both horses out on the hill.  We fed them, and drove home.

There is this lady across the street from the Pine's place.  She has a huge Arabian horse breeding thing over there.  They have a website, too. 

Ni hao ma!  It has been a while since I've written!

A lot has happened, but I will focus on this past weekend.

This coming Thursday (Thanksgiving, Nov. 25), is my birthday! SWEET 16!!!  So I went to SF for the weekend and stayed with my godparents.

It started on Saturday morning.  I got up and took BART into the city and arrived at 9:21.  That is where Sue picked me up.  She and Bruce took me to the wharf and got me a bread bowl of clam chowder.  yum!!  The day started out AWESOME, TOTALLY clear and WARM!!!!

Then they took me back to their house.  I put my stuff away in the guest room and Sue and I left.  We walked down Bush and turned onto Fillmore.  FIllmore has a BUHCN of shops all up and down it.  We went to Benefit where we made an appoitment to get my eyebrows shaped.

Then we went a few stores down and looked at clothes for about 20 minutes.  After 20 minutes we went back to Benefit where I got my eyebrows arched and thinned. I almost got my eyelashed tinted but I decided against it.  Then the girl gave me make-up tips. 

She didn't listen to me that I wanted PROM ideas so we left.  We went up and down Fillmore, looked at clothes some more, and got hot chocolate and a BIG chocolate chip cookie.  Then we went to Mac, another make-up place, where the lady actually listened and gave me great prom ideas.  She made my eyes look GREAT!!  My eyes stood out SO much.  I have blue eyes so she used a lot of brown on me.  She gave me some great tips.  I hafta admit I looked awesome.

Then we went to a french crepe place and got crepes.  They were AWESOME!  I got a crepe with salted butter fleks and chocolate sauce while Sue got a crepe with ham and cheese.  AT the place we called Chris and Elizabeth, a couple friends with my godparents.  They also live in SF, a block away from Sue and Bruce (my godparents).  They had a baby, about 4 months ago today, and his name is Nicholas.  I have never met him, so Sue and I called Elizabeth and went over to visit.

When I got there, we walked in and was greeted by Elizabeth, and NICHOLAS!! OMG HE IS SO CUTE!!!! He had HUGE blue eyes and brown hair.  So I held him and Sue and Elizabeth took pictures of me and him.  He drooled on me!! So cute!!!  Then Elizabeth asked me "So are you and Irja going to go over the golden gate bridge?"  And I was like "what?" and she was like "oops"  I looked and Sue and she gave me a "I know nothing" look.  I got very suspicious.

Then we went upstairs and saw the "boys", Bruce and Chris (Elizabeth's hubby) working on Nicholas's bedroom.  They were painting and drilling when we got up there.  We talked and went out on the roof and looked at the city.

Then Sue and I left to Irja's place a few doors down.  (She is this awesome woman who my godparents are friends with).  SHe came out the door, smiling.  I was like "whaaaaat is gong to happen."  Then she opened her garage door and drove out of it in her BRAND new Chrysler Crossfire Convertible, light blue and silver. 

(hers is a bit lighter than this)  I was like WOAH!!  She put the top down and the windows down.  Then she got out and I got behind the wheel.  She got in the passenger seat and Sue took pics of us (coming soon).  Then Sue left and Irja handed me a hairtie and was like "you will need this."  I was like "am I driving?" and she was like "lol no."

I got in and we zoomed to the Golden Gate bridge.  She was like "Lets see how much speed we can get, though there may be traffic on the bridge." Sure enough, there was traffic, but moving traffic.  She said "Lets go to Sausalito and we will get speed going up the hill".  So we drove off of the bridge onto the road to Sausalito where there was like NO traffic.  OMG we got HELLA speed!  The great thing is, it was kinda cold, so we pumped up the heat and THE SEATS ARE HEATED!!  So we were not cold with the top and windows down.  We had the music blasting and the bass pumping.  It was so awesome!!

We drove through Sausalito and back onto the Golden Gate Bridge. Remeber how I said it was a clear day?  Well as we drove back over the Golden Gate, the sun was setting into the ocean, casting an orange glow over EVERYTHING.   It was INCREDIBLE and so awesome....

We drove back into the city and to another makeup place.  ( I cant think of the name right now).  We went into it and tried on diff makeups and bought things.  I sprayed perfume into my eyes.

Then we went to a nail place where she got an eyebrow tint, manicure, and pedicure.  I just got a manicure.

Then we pumped up the music and drove back to Sue and Bruce's. Irja stayed a bit and we had a drink.

(Irja, DONT FORGET our bad-ass white chics... ESP the white man dance and the boom boxes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) 

Then she left.  So Bruce is an AMAZING chef.  He made my FAVORITE dinner, rack of lamb.  OMG I was so in heaven.

It was so awesome.  Then Sue and I watched a movie, and went to bed. I stayed up and watched abit more TV.

So on Sunday I woke up.  I had killer oatmeal, fruit, and a $22 jar of hot chocolate.  Yum!

I packed up and Sue and I took a walk down to Chestnut street.  We walked pasdt the houses they used for the show Full House and through the park they went to that was in the beginning.  It was TOTALLY cool.

We walked down to Chestnut and walked through way expensive stores.  In this one store, Two Skirts, a sweater costed $259.  No joke!  All of the prices were like that.

We kept walking and saw this AWESOME 3 month old golden retriver puppy, Casey, with a broken leg.  She was walking just fine with it, apparently she slid down some steps. SO KYOOT!

Then we kept going, walked back up Fillmore up the HUGE hill and went into Mac again.  We met Irja there and I bought some eyeliner and some glitter/prom eye stuff.  Sue went home and I hung with Irja.  She bought me a crepe to go, the ham and cheese (SO good!) one, and we walked around a bit.  We walked into this Swedish/Polish clothes shop, tres chic.

We headed back to Sue's.  We got there, and Sue and I went to get p[edicures.  I got this pinkish color with a flower on each big toes in the shape of snowflakes. 

They had big vibrating chairs and it was AWESOME.

Then Sue and I went back to her house and we drove home.
