*Gasp* She's ANCHIENT!

Gosh, I was just looking and I've been so preocupied that I never wrote anything on here about my birthday!



It really was the best birthday I've ever had. A little different, yes, but I liked it quite a lot :-)


And I feel like writing this post differently, so I shall launch into story mode or whatever you wish to call it...So without further adue, well...you know what I'm writing about so just go down and read! If you want to, that is. ;-)


"Names & Numbers- your five-star phone book!" sings the radio ad... *yawn* Oh, man, time to get up already? Sarah thinks to herself as she reaches up to turn off her clock radio. 8:00 AM the clock reads. One hour and 15 minutes until the red van would pull up and take her away from her home for 3 hours of leaf raking. *sigh* Well, I guess I had better be getting up here...
She makes her way downstairs and looks around. Mom & dad in bed and Nathaniel watching his cartoons... typical, for a Saturday morning. What wasn't typical was the fact that she'd gotten up at 8:00. Normally for her Saturday = stay in bed until 9:00 or 9:30. Oh well, some times you must make sacrifices.

A little more than an hour later she was riding up in that red van with her friends Luke, Hannah & Kaitelyn, on their way to Calvary Chapel's new church building to help clean the yard up a bit.
Ah, yes, another youth group volunteer activity. Helping out and being with friends at the same time, quite a nice combination, really.
At the end of the morning, they all together had raked 44 bags of leaves. Plus they had free doughnuts as well :-) Yummmm.

That afternoon, after shoveling down her food as fast as she was capeable of, Sarah waited for her friends Taylor & Kitana to arrive. What better way to spend the afternoon of your birthday than with two of your best buds?
She didn't have to wait very long for soon as she had finished the doorbell rang.
The afternoon was great, taking goofy photos of eachother (even when they weren't meant to be goofy!), watching music videos, eating cake & ice cream...and oh! Did I meantion preasents? Ah, yes, quite fun!

That evening after her friends had gone home and dinner had been eaten, one might think that the fun was over, but noooooo... Even to Sarah's suprise, it wasn't!
RIIIING! RIIIING! There goes the phone..... "Hello?" soon as she spoke into the phone, she heard, "Happy birthday to you! Happy bithday to you! Happy bithday dear Sarah! Happy birthday to you!...that's number 4!"
Oh, yes... when her and the youth group were raking leaves they decided that they would sing her happy birthday 15 times over. Well, they only made it to three... well, make that 4, now!
The phone continiued to ring throughout the evening and each time it was people from youth group singing "Happy Birthday!" It was hilarious... So they got their 15 happy birthday songs in, and Sarah got the most memorable birthday ever... :-)
