Our family is very small, so I don't get too many presents anymore. My family only consists of me, my mom, my dad, and one grandma. My relatives live over in England, so I don't get hardly anything from them, but this year they mailed me a Lord of the Rings Return of the King calendar! YAY! THANKS GUYS!

My neighbors dog Tasha gave me a Bath and Body Works teddy bear with cucumber melon lotion, body wash, and scrub! Tasha also gave me a card that said: Thanks for all the walks and time you spend with me." AHH, TOO CUTE! I have to post a picture of Tasha, for she is ADORABLE! She is so special to me. Tasha and I are the best of buddies! I have to dog sit her in April for a week, I am looking forward to that!! Trips to the pet store, trips to the dog park, YAY! SO EXCITED!

Tasha (and I) getting ready to go for a run:


My parents (I should say mom, she gets it all for me, not dad) gave me $100, seat cushions for my car, Pirates of the Caribbean DVD, a plush Yellow Lab door stop, See's chocolates from California, a rat calendar, a Lord of the Rings calendar, an electric blanket (rats ruined other one), and Celine Dion perfume.

I have some other gifts coming my way, serving as EXTREMELY late Christmas gifts and rewards if I do good in school. They told me I could get a new cage for the rats, and a new stereo in my car, since the stereo blew out- its sooo old!
