Hiya!!!!
NEW VIDEO!!!!!!!! Check it out!!!!
Havn't done to much these last weeks put some christmas lights up. Worked. Went on a crazy long bike ride with Rory. Went caroling with Damien and others from the ward. Had two work parties =] and I think that is it really.
I have been on special needs everytime I have worked so that is fun. I really love Bree she is such a gorgeous girl and I will miss her when she goes to school. I think I will miss all of the workers and children if I leave.
Bonus I have been getting stacks of mail! I love mail!!!! So many years of all the mail being for mum and now I get heaps >=] Plus the mail brings good news (thankyou keven rudd)
Everyone just so you know. Damien is a really good church geek =) He is a really good brother too. Thanks Damien for being a really awesome brother (you better read my blogs)
I think that be all for now.

=)
I have been in a pretty happy mood all week. So be prepared for a happy blog!
The week pretty much started with a call from Bryan. It was a call that has really made me think this whole week. As I may have already told you there is an opportunity for me to move up to Karratha to work at a Child Care Centre there. And although I haven't made my mind up, either way its been really fun thinking about it and dreaming a little.
On Tuesday I went to Juliet's Kindergarten Graduation! It was really great seeing her get her certificate and hearing her sing some songs. I went back to Damien and Natasha's place for a while to chat with Damien. I went with Natasha to Spotlight and then we went to pick Rory and Isiah up from school and then Charlie from Child Care. That night the kids had a concert at school that I went to. It was pretty good. Rory, Isiah and Ruthie did a good job.
YIPPEE!!! I worked on Wednesday!!! Tammy picked me up from work and then we had pizza with Dad =)
Friday I had work from 9:30 to 5:00 it was a long day which was made longer by the rain and ratty kids that couldn't go outside. I was also on special needs for the beginning of the day and Briana was having mood swings due to medication she is taking. So I was getting kicked, pinched, bitten and screamed at for most of the day. I finished at 5 but stayed as we were having a Christmas party with all the kids and their families. It was pretty fun just hanging around Rachel (my favourite worker) and the other people. But when I got home I was wasted!
Saturday for some crazy reason we had a Relief Society breackfast at 7am!! It was pretty alright though.. and I got to play with Anabelle so it was worth it =P
Saturday night we had a Nativity thing and then I babysat Jeremiah and Ruth untill late.
Today is SUNDAY!! I had a good time at church and also at the Christmas devotional we just had.
I am still happy too so bonus!!

I am gettting really slow in my bloggings =O
Well nothing much has been happening this last week. I had work on Friday but it was only for 3 hours. It was still just awesome being there! Sarah who is a littl girl at child care (so cute) had a shirt that said "ASK ME ABOUT DINOSAURS" written on it, so I asked her what she knew about dinosaurs. She pointed at her top and said "ASK ME ABOUT DINOSAURS" =) Later I was with her and Abdul and she decided that we were fairies! I was a boy fairy -.- and Abdul was a girl fairy -.-. As I was walking away she called out your not flying Sarah. Silly me!!! So i put my "wings" out and flapped all the way around outside! The joys of Child Care!
Nothing else has really happend..I slept over Tamera's house on Friday night and on Saturday we had a Christmas Party for all the mothers plus Tam and I. I put some christmas lights up but I still have more to do. I will upload photos when its all done.
This is my baby! =)

Blogging again!
It has dawned on me that it will be a month tomorrow since I last wrote a blog. So I will fill you in on what I can remember.
There has been no work for me in two and a half weeks!! I am suprised how really bummed I am about it. I miss the children and all the fun I have when I am with them. Of course my mother as it was "Gods blessing so that she would have someone to help her clean in the lead up to Nanna and Grandad's visit." Well the blessing should be over!!!! I have had a week of cleaning a week of Grandparents and still no work. Not very impressed.
There has been some bonus to not workign such as shopping!!! Other highlights of this last month have been sleeping over Tammy's house and playing computer games on Jakes computer (Thanks Jake) I have been addicted to a game called Assasins Creed. Awesome graphics, awesome skills and awesome buildings that you leap off into hay! Tamera and I have also been playing Rise of Nations which has been fun! There have been a few family get togethers which have been fun, the first being the Pilkington gathering at Jenny's house and then we had Anabelles baby blessing which was nice. And then the last was for Jermiah's birthday.
Last night was prolly the most fun as Tamera and I went to Studio 2000 and had some pictures taken! It was awesome and I had a blast! When I got home I took a billion photos of myself (not vain just camera happy) This is just a few of the billion \/
TWINS!!!
Silly shots are the best
POSER!!
=)
ME AND TAMMY!!!!!

20th - 26th of October! Not much this week!
Monday 20th - I was supposed to start placement at 9 but ended up not going in til 12 as they wanted me to work. It was the first time that I worked in the babies room and it was pretty fun and I worked pretty well. Monday night we had the missionaries come over for dinner and we had Spaghetti (yummo). After dinner Tamera came over and we went for a short walk which is always fun.
Tuesday 21st- I actually got to do Placement today as a bonus. It was pretty uneventful as I was in the baby room and just played with the babies. I had chior practice Tuesday night.
Wednesday 22nd - 9-5:30 I started off as a student and ended up working. I was in the baby room again and there was a 10 babies!!!! Talk about hard work! Tamera picked me up and saw me in my lovely work shirt. Tam and I went back to my house and we watched a movie. It was a pretty funny movie.
Thursday 23rd- Today I worked 11:30 - 4:45. I worked with the older kids this time which is always a blast!! It wasn't overly eventful but the older children are a little more exciting then the babies.
Friday 24th- 7-12:30 I GOT TO GO TO KINDERGYM!!!!! It was awesome fun! I haven't been there since I was in primary school and it was fun throwing children into the pit and also a bit fun bring pushed in myself several times. Mum and I went to the shops after work and then just came home for a bit til we went visiting teaching. Friday night was spent babysitting Charles and Juliet =)
SATURDAY 25th- I was so excited for today as we went to see the 36ers play the Wild Cats. I spent majority of the day at Tams, until Shaan arrived. Then we drove home and waited for Cat. Once Catherine arrived we picked up Rory and Isiah and went to maccas for dinner. Then the moment arrived, BASKETBALL!! The game was really exciting and Tam and I were pretty much the only Wild Cat supporters. People kept looking at us weird, and really I don't get what their problems were. Two people were going for a different team big woop. South Australians are really bad at sportsmanship. But they all ate it big time because Wild Cats dominated the whole game and won by 11 points!!!!! GO WILD CATS!!!!
Funny moment- Isiah- "Is it half time?" Me- "No, its time out" Isiah- "They all have to have time out?!?!" LOL LOL (the man in front of us was having a good laugh at that)
Sunday 26th- Today we are going to Modbury ward Relief Society and then attending Golden Grove ward. So I should go get ready.

Love you all xoxo

10th-19th of October
Well this week has been pretty much all child care. I am almost finished all my work placement its exciting but sad. No more will I get to go to child care and not have too change nappies =P.
Friday 10th- I worked 5 hours and have no clue what I did for the rest of it =S.
Saturday 11th- Saturday morning was relaxed and I didn't do anything exciting but at 12:30ish Damien rang up and asked if I could help watch their children, while they laid lawn. So being the kind sister I am I went down to Damien's and helped all afternoon. I was a pretty good lawn layer and I had skills in watering the lawn (well except when the hose kept flying off the sprayer and getting everyone wet [sorry about your bottom Natasha =S]) I was pretty wet and the boys were as well it was so refreshing in the heat. At around 6 Natasha took me home because Ruth was over for dinner so I had dinner then went back to Damien's house too help some more. Natasha and I stayed up pretty late talking. I got home pretty late but it was a nice chat that we had.
Sunday 12th- Today we had General Conference, which was pretty good. Charlie sat with me for most of it (that kid is sooooo cute) Sunday afternoon was spent relaxing and then Damien, Natasha and Family came over for dinner. We had a nice dinner for Natasha's Birthday and then we had desert out on the deck. The children went inside to watch a church movie and we stayed outside chatting til they went home.
Monday 13th - Friday 17th - From 8am to 2pm I was at child care everyday this week. I haven't got long to go before the work placement is done. The highlights of these days were...."Operating" on Briana (which involved me picking up various toys and while she laid on her back, pretending that I was operating with them)...Making up about 10 stories on the spot for the 6-8 children who wanted them...only having school kids there for a part of the morning...and...Bella calling me cool heaps =P.
on Tuesday 14th- I walked from child care to Natasha's house and then from Natasha's to the boys school and then back. And then I walked again from my house with the smartest person in the world (who locked her keys in the car when she drove over to go for a walk together) to her house and then back to mine. I had a great time and we talked and I was silly (like usual) for most of the time.
on Wednesday 15th- I walked from Child Care to the boys school once again to pick them up and then I walked them back to Natasha's and then I walked home. Tam came over and Dad brought home Pizza (yummo).
on Thursday 16th- We went shopping and to the chiropractors.
Friday 17th- I did part of my visiting teaching =) and had a fun night.
Saturday 18th- I worked super hard today!!!!!! At 8am Dad woke me up because we were going to do a Mormon Helping Hands thingo, we went to Para Wira(?I think that is how it is spelt) We spent a few hours killing some weeds called boneseed. They were in massive clumps and were pretty big, so we had to cut it then put blue killing stuff on the stump. It was pretty tough work and I kept getting dizzy from bending over and standing to quickly. It was combined Playford and Paralowie ward, there was a good group from Playford ward but our ward had a whole of three people plus 6 missionaries. Not very impressed :l. Dad and I got home around 1 and I was sort of dozing until I had to get ready for a Relief Society Dinner/Broadcast. The evening was alright.
Today is Sunday and I am just about to get ready for Church I have prepared my music for today (and I am praying I don't have to conduct the hymns).
Well that about it...

BAM and the dirt is gone!! 2nd October-9th October
Not very detailed for the most part because I can't remember what happened =P
Thursday the 2nd was work placement yay! I got to go with the kids to a play cafe near the centre and was a pretty laid back afternoon watching them run around.
Friday I worked 7-12:30 I love that shift!!! It leaves the rest of the day to have fun! I walked to Natasha's to say hello to her awesome children (all my nieces and nephews are awesome) And she kindly drove me home so that I didn't have to walk in the rain (charlie didn't want to say goodbye to me [love you too charlie]). I was pretty tired so I didn't go to the dance. I just had an early night.
Saturday Tamera, Ruth and I had sisters day and was like always full of stupid silly things that we laughed about for ages.We went to Fasta Pasta and then as Ruth said we were in the shops and and she hit my bottom with her bag and then walked ahead. I called to Tamera so she would walk towards me and Ruth could hit her, but Ruth thought I was going to gang up on her with Tam so she said "Oi no! I'll throw up! I can throw up on demand!!" Tamera and I found it hilarious the lady in the same isle wasn't that into it though =P We went back to Ruth's and played Mario Party (I totally owned!!!) Tam dropped me home and once again I had an early night!
Sunday was pretty boring as far as Sunday's go. I didn't have Anabelle during Relief Society as Damien and Family were camping. I enjoyed Sunday School!! It was a good lesson taught by Brother Sturt, I always enjoy his teaching. We had Tamera and Jake come over for dinner and we ate outside which was nice. After dinner we finished the dad's puzzle, it was quite fun!
Monday was a Public Holiday YAY!!!!!! It was a really nice day, the Riley's came over for a BBQ lunch and we had a good time chatting and laughing at Ineke! The rest of Monday was so relaxing and needed!
Tuesday I started work at 7am and had finished at 12 (I think) I got home and Mum went to pick up Isiah, Juliet and Charles. They came over and we watched a movie until I had to go get a declaration signed by a JP. Lucky that we know a JP! I dropped off my Declaration at work and picked up my first PAY SLIP!!! WOOHOO!! It was pretty exciting, well to me it was.
Wednesday I was supposed to be on Special Needs but Briana wasn't in so I went all the way to work for nothing, it was okay though because I didn't really wanna work all that much. I didn't do much for the remainder of the day. Ruth Kathryn slept over and so we played a bit and had a pretty good time. We had choir practice for Stake Conference, there wasn't many people there which was a bit bogus.
Today I went to child care for work placement but ended up doing 2 hours of work and then came home because my head was about to explode. I rested this afternoon and Tamera was just over and we watched a movie. And now I am going to go to bed beacuse I am sooooooo tired!!

Its all pretty fun =P
28th of September - 1st of October
Saturday was an extremely boring day...well it started out that way. Saturday morning Dad took me to the city to get a MRI which took a while to get there wait and then actually get the scan. Isn't it nice that they stick me in a machine that is louder then a jack hammer (that's with earplugs and two sets of padding either side) to find out why I have headaches. So I have decided that HATE MRI's! Its 15 minutes of hell if you ask me! After that Dad and I drove home. I don't know how we got on the subject of special drives but I told Dad that every drive with him is a special drive (figure out for yourself what kind of special I meant).
Things got better because Tamera and I went shopping at Marion! It was actually my first time in the Marion Shopping Centre (little bit sad I know) But we spent the whole second half of the day there and then saw a movie called "Wild Child"! I thought it was pretty good. Then Tamera and I watched movies back at my house. It was a pretty fun day at the end.
Sunday was just an ordinary day. I woke up and just hung around the house a bit, then got ready for church, went to church, came home from church, had dinner and went to bed. Church was alright I even went to Sunday School. Relief Society was a delight because I had Anabelle to play with. And I didn't have to conduct the music =D!!!!!
Monday I worked 10-5:45 Fun Fun Fun. I really enjoy playing with the kids and even thought the schoolies were there it didn't impact me that much. Brayden who is 9 was in love with me, don't ask me why! He was protecting me from the other children and calling me cute =S.
Tuesday I went to do some work experience and ended up working from 9:30-3:30. I was on special needs all day and I really loved it! I came home with scratches pinch marks (no bites though =D) Briana loves me!!! She is just so awesome even when she drools on me pinches scratches or bites. She really just makes me smile! She even said my name which is a big thing because she doesn't talk much at all. We were outside and she was playing then was laying on my lap really sleepy..after lunch when it was time for her nap she was laughing and almost mocking me instead of sleeping =D. Tina drove me home and I helped mum get dinner ready as we had the missionaries over for dinner. It was an enjoyable night.
Today is Wednesday and I went this morning to the Neurosurgeon and basically he just told me that there was no change in my brain and is probably going to refer me to a headache specialist. On the way home I was called into work. 10:45-2:00. When I got there I walked outside and BAM! there was a child hugging me and I was like "hello..who is this?" It was Bella! She is one of my favourites she is just a really good kid! By the end of the day it was established that all the school kids think I am really cool. I walked to Ruths to say hello to the kids before mum picked me up on her way past. Now I am writting a blog... Obviously
Well that is all so far this week

What I did this week 20-26 of September 2008
Saturday is a day to sleep in and wake up when you are no longer tired...Too bad my mind wanted to wake up because I was excited about the visitors we would be having! Saturday morning I woke up too early if you ask me but it was alright because I had to get up a little earlier then normal to go to Damien's house for a ward breakfast (there was only Dad, Damien's family, two Serles, six missionaries and I). I had some yummy coco pops (and no I am not three I just like coco pops) and then I got to play with "The Best Pilkington Family" minus Damien. Natasha and I walked with all her children to the park, where we played for a good while (Jeremiah came as well) Then we walked all the way back to Natasha's house where Tam picked me up to go get our hair done =D Forever and a bit later after Tams hair was coloured I got my hair cut YAY!! Tamera and I then went to the shops for a bit and then came back to my place to switch over cars. Then Tamera and I looked at ourselves in the mirror for a very long time (because we are cool like that) And now for the moment we had been waiting for...We drove to the airport to pick Bryan, Amy and MICHAEL up!!!!! I knew it was them because they had a really cool looking child with them! We then drove to Charlies for dinner and I think I must have been dazed because I didn't really notice anything about the cleanliness or food quality =SAfter Charlies we Mum, Dad, Bryan, Amy, Michael and I all came home where we talked and played with Michael for a little while. Then all us sleepy heads went to bed!Sunday wasn't as exciting but I still woke up early..hmm why was that? O yea it was because Bryan sent a little boy in to wake me up (I think Bryan was bored)..I spent ages in my room with Michael and Bryan playing with my monkeys and talking. Then Amy, Bryan and Michael left so I was bored.. I got ready and went to church. We took Jeremiah to church and he fell asleep in my arms just before sacrament finished so instead of going to Sunday school I sat in the foyer with him in Anabelle's pram and Anabelle with me =D Anabelle was so cute all day first it was during Sacrament when she was crying so I took her for Natasha and sort of whispered the Womble song in her ear with her face smooshed against mine. She kept slipping as she was falling asleep but would sit up and grizzle til I started the song again. Natasha ended up taking her out. Then in Relief Society she was doing the same thing while i sang the womble song, it was so cute that i kept giggling until finally she gave in and actually fell asleep. I got to cuddle her all through Relief Society (pure gold) She woke up and was happy to just be held while I conducted the last song (PS I am really bad at it)!Monday was an awesome day because I got to sleep in and play with Michael all day!
We had a fun time play with his Giraffe

And just being cool =PTuesday was work placement another exciting day!!! The children were fun and exciting as normal and I helped Ronnie clean out the store room. Tuesday night was pretty average didn't do much at all.
Wednesday morning I got to play with Michael for a while before they wen't to the city. Wednesday night Bryan asked me to make him spaghetti so me being the greatest sister in the world I made it =P Then lucky me got to babysit Michael he ate his spaghetti and then we went upstairs to watch 'Riverdance' Michael loved it and we had a fun time making suprised faces at each other (he is so cute) I put Michael to bed and eventually i hit the sack aswell.
Thursday was work placement which I spent in the baby room. It was pretty boring in there (the children are such a let down after playing with Michael) They were pretty boring 0-2yr olds. They didn't talk much if at all and they didn't even play that much! At 3:00 I changed from student to worker and got to go outside and play with the older children plus schoolies. I was a bit freaked out about what some of the 8-9yr old boys were talking about and what kindof movies they have seen (PS Rory if I catch you talking about what they were talking about you will be in big trouble!!!=P) After Child Care I walked until mum picked me up came home and didn't really do much. I waited til Bryan and Amy got home so I could say goodbye and see Michael. He wasn't very happy though, tired and possibly sick! But all in all he was still gorgeous!
Today has been a pretty relaxing/boring/sad day. I find myself quite sad that Michael (and possibly Bryan and Amy) have gone. The house is once again quiet and the days uneventful.
Well that is all so far this week. It was much more exciting then it sounds!
Signing off then

I got one too!
Yes I am also joining in on the blogging thing!
This week has been pretty fun and exciting! (for me anyway you might not think so)
Sunday was my first day at preparing and leading the music for Relief Society =) First I had to conduct which was interesting, as I am not all that great (basically I just waved my arm around and made it look like I knew what I was doing). And then I ran music appreciation where I told the story of how a rubber duck had been found on the beach, after several months in the water. On the duck was a message written by some girls to their father who had passed away a few months before. They had said that the duck being found so many months later, on Fathers Day was like he was telling them that he was still watching over them. And I thought how when Grandpa had died the Sunday after was general conference and 'O My Father' was played it was his favourite hymn and it was like his message to us. So I played 'O My Father'. A lot of people said how they enjoyed it so i was pretty happy with my first go.
On Monday Ruth brought Jeremiah around to play with me while she went to the dentist and Natasha also came over to do some scrap booking so I had my hands a little full with Charlie and Jeremiah and the cheeky things they get up too. Juliet was good and just played with dolls. Anabelle was cute as always and I got to cuddle her and put her to sleep for a little bit. We had the missionaries over for dinner. It was just mum and I at home as dad was on a trip. So we had a nice little dinner and chat with the missionaries. Then I got to relax a little bit before bed :)
Tuesday was a rough day because of work placement at child care and because of the weather the children were kept inside and were all a little crazy! Days like this is why I think child care workers are hard to find :S But it had its good moments as Tuesdays is when Jake and Benjamin are there. Jake is really cute and I think every ones favourite and Benjamin has been labelled as 'Sarah's Little Shadow'! He follows me around a lot and we talk about Scooby Doo (his favourite thing in the world). He is a little bit hard to understand but I understand enough to know that I am now Velma and he is Shaggy... =) I walked home and just chilled at home till around 6:30 when I babysat Rory, Isiah, Juliet and Charles (aka the children in "The Best Pilkington Family" minus Anabelle) Damien drove me home and I watched mum give herself an injection :S and then went to bed!
**Another thing that happened on Tuesday was I was asked if I could go on the relief list for the Child Care Center! So that was pretty exciting and it will give me even more experience as a child care worker!
Wednesday was a day full of cleaning (so nothing exciting).. Dad also came home and lucky me he brought pizza (sorry Mum)
Thursday was a much better day at child care as we could go outside and the children weren't so crazy. Bree the special needs child was there which I enjoy because she is as happy as can be! Even though she has bitten and pinched me she is a pretty awesome girl! All the kids like to play with me and a few like to tell me I am cool (I love it). We played outside for most of the day and had races and the children all chased me around. It is pretty hard running away from 15 children when they are coming from all directions. I went to the Chiropractors and then mum dropped me off at the shops and I met up with Natasha. I bought everyone an ice block and we went in the very cool bus to pick Juliet and Charlie up from child care. The point of all this was that I took all the children besides Anabelle to the playground near Ruth's house. Where we played for a while. Then Ruth and Jeremiah went home and Rory, Isiah, Juliet, Charles and I walked back to their home. And then I walked home, had dinner and went out again with Natasha Mum and Anabelle to a Relief Society activity on chocolate of all things (I don't like chocolate and mum isn't allowed chocolate). But it was a nice evening and once again I got to play with Anabelle! Anabelle and I had a fun time laughing, talking and a little singing on my part =)
Today is Friday and I have cleaned and cleaned and now I am writing a blog!
I am looking forward to tomorrow when Amy Bryan and Michael are coming for a visit!
I am pretty sure that is all! It is a pretty long blog so you don't have to read it all ( just kidding of course you have to read it all!)
Catch you next time Bloggers!
