This Monday was Martin Luther King Jr.s birthday! (For reasons unknown to Jodi I love this holiday!) He was a great and wonderful man. Dave had the day off so we all went to Atlanta. We went to the Lego store. I didn't really like it. But after the Lego store Jodi took me to the Disney store! Oh I love it! The Disney store was having a sale on Camp Rock things! I got a new poster, a game and a notebook all for 11 dollars! It was such a good deal. I am so happy I did it!

When we were at the Lego store I got to stand in this Mummy! The whole thing is made out of Legos. We also went to Costco on Martin Luther King Jr. day. Dave, Abe, Dallin and I all ate pizza. Jodi got a hot dog. It made her happy all day long! As we were leaving Costco we got Chocolate ice cream! I was so good!

My friend Misty taught the lesson in Relief Society today. She did such a wonderful job. The lesson was about giving all our hearts to help the people together with our family. At the end of the lesson she gave us chocolate dipped pretzels. It was so delicious! I got one for Jodi, and she loved it!

I got a Kung Fu Panda blanket in the mail this week! It was very exciting! I earned my Kung Fu Panda blanket by eating the right kind of cereal enough times. My blanket is soft and I love it! Jack Black is the real dragon warrior. He is my hero. When the Savior comes again and my down syndrome is all gone, I'm going to marry Jack Black.

My white belt!

This week I got my first Karate uniform. I also earned my white belt. To earn my white belt I had to remember all the moves my teacher taught me. I did such a good job. It was wonderful to earn my white belt. My teacher tied my white belt on me. He only ties on the white belt and the black belt.

Here I am with Jodi. (she looks pretty fat.) And I get to bow to my teacher David Jones, when class is done. He is very good at Karate. And a very nice man.

Here is my teacher putting on my white belt.

These are pictures of me during my white belt test.

Abe and Dallin go to Karate with me on Fridays. On Wednesday I go by my self. Abe is pretty tired at the end of School and Karate. They got their uniforms on Friday, but they haven't earned their white belts yet. Abe and Dallin are great nephews.

Last Sunday we went to Bart and Misty Brimhall's house for dinner. We had fondue. I had never tried it before. We had cheese and bread fondue. And we put chucks of meat, cheese and mushrooms into a fondue pot full of oil, let them cook and then ate them. It was so good! For desert we did something really different. Jodi made toffee fondue, it tasted like Carmel. We dipped bananas, grapes, pineapple and rice Krispie treats into the toffee. It was so good. My mother and father have never tried it. In 2010 Mother, Father, Shelly and JaNel will all try it with me.

Later in the week Jodi and I went back to Misty's house and played Scene It DVD Game second edition. We had a very good time.

On Friday I started a Mixed Marshal Arts class. It's like Karate. I love it! I want to become a Kung Fu Master. My teacher is so nice.





Every day Jodi and I got to the gym. I love going to the gym. I like to go fast on the elliptical! Jodi used to only go 3, maybe 4 days a week. But now that I'm here.... I don't understand her lame excuses for not going, so every morning I put on my exercise close and stare at her until we go. It's so fun. Going to the gym makes me a tough women! I go 30 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes on the treadmill. Just like Jodi. I get to listen to my I Pod at the gym. I like that very much.

Today at Church I saw Misty! She is such a nice women. I love going to Church. Tomorrow I have the Family Home Evening Lesson for Jodi's family. I'm going to teach every one Jesus Christ and keeping the commandments of God, so we can have blessings. And to be obedient to our parents.

I am leaning to be a patient women. Jodi and Dave are also leaning to be patient.

A Very Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year!

A few days before Christmas David, Jodi, Abraham, Dallin and I went to PF Changs for dinner. I had noodles! I love noodles and would like to work at PF Changs making noodles. I think it would be a good job.

Before Christmas we also went to lights of the South. They had a Cinderella pumpkin coach. I got to sit in the pumpkin coach. It was so fun. There were so many beautiful Christmas lights! We had hot chocolate and went on a hay ride. I would like to take my parents, Shelly and JaNel to try it.

What a wonderful Christmas! For Christmas I got a Kung Fu Panda outfit! I love it! I love Kung Fu Panda because Jack Black is the real Dragon Warrior! And he is my Hero! My mother made me a red sash to go with my white shirt and stretch pants. Now I look just like Kung Fu Panda! I love it! I also got a Kung Fu Panda laundry basket.

For Christmas I got:

High School Musical sheets, Bed Spread, Curtains, Calendar, laundry basket and a Sticker book. I love High School Musical!

An I pod classic that had all my music on it! I love to listen to it all the time. I listen to my i pod at the gym when I'm on the treadmill or elliptical!

Seen it DVD game.

Two new DVD's.

A pink Chair.

A new lamp for my room.

It was a very good Christmas! I believe!

For New Years we did something really special! We went to Orlando Florida and went to Sea World! The morning we went to Sea World we found a McDonald's and went to breakfast. It was the largest McDonald's in the whole world! It was so cool! It was really big! It was so fun!

When we got to Sea World we got to see Free Willy! He was so wonderful! He jumped in the air very high. The women and men rode on him. We also saw the dolphin show. It was very wonderful too! There was another show with Sea Lions and a Walrus! They were on a pirate ship!

At Sea World I rode the Polar Express ride! I got to see Santa Clause and I believe with all my heart!

I rode a roller coaster with David Peterson. Then I rode a roller coaster with David, Abraham and Dallin. That roller coaster was wet! I love to ride roller coasters! They are so fun! Jodi couldn't ride the roller coasters with me because she is having a baby in April of 2009.

We went to dinner at the Oliver Garden. It was so good. I need to take my mother and father there in 2010. After dinner we went back to the hotel and took a nap. At 10pm we went back to Sea World. I bought a shirt with Free Willy on it! We watched fire works at midnight and made lots of noise! Then we rang in the new year with a ice cream cone. I had so much fun!

The next day we went back to Georgia. But we stopped in Daytona Beach Florida. It was cold! I just played on the beach. My nephew Abraham Peterson didn't mind the cold he got all wet in the ocean! I had a wonderful time!

This is what I've been doing this holiday season! I'll write more later! I love you!
