OBAMA = CHANGE! (& a Prop 8)

And that is exactly what this country needs, CHANGE!

As Auntie stated in her blog, this is not meant to offend anyone, its just my opinion.

I, being a non-working student, and living with my family, we are all middle class Americans. Obama's issues on economy, were of biggest importance to me. With Obama as President, we will see so much more oppurtunity developing in this country. Great things will come from this election, and I am soo excited to say that I was apart of this historical event.

With Obama as President, we will see more job oppurtunities develop, our childrens school budgets increase, health care will be affordable which will allow many Americans who have never had insurance be able to now, we will have increased homeland security to protect our country and communities, taxes for senior citizens will disappear, middle-class Americans taxes will be decreased GREATLY, health insurance will be AMAZING for veterans, American women will still have the choice of abortion (which is the way it should be), and lastly, HE WILL END THIS WAR!!!

Obama won by a landslide, American's know we need change, and Obama is the only way to do this. Bush has destroyed this country, and McCain would have made it worse.

I'd also like to note that I am THRILLED that they are petitioning Prop 8. I voted No, my mom voted no, my grandmother voted no, all of my friends and their families voted no.... NO was the right way. Obviously, it was a very close call, as it being ALMOST 50/50.

My views on Prop 8 are simple - LOVE is LOVE. In the consitution, we have "freedom of religion" which means religion should not have any control over propositions. However, in this country, that will never happen. I am a Christian, and I love God with everything I am, but I do not agree that marriage must be man and woman. We have equal rights in this country, and Gay people are humans just like you - and they deserve equal rights as well. I find this proposition to be discrimination against a minority. Now, if you want to bring the Bible into this... I can certainly back that one up too. In the Bible, it states, "Don't mix yolks with other yolks." This can be interpretted in many different ways (don't mix sex with other sex, don't mix race with other race, or even don't marry a non-christian.) NOW, listen to this - God wants his children to all have good hearts, judgement is sinning - aren't you judging Gays, by saying that they can't get married because they are Gay? Discrimination is wrong, and Judgment is a Sin.

Halloween Night

Since I'm a little old now to go trick-or-treating, I didn't dress up on Halloween Night. However, I did walk around our neighborhood with Makayla, Haylee, my parents, Bryan and Grandpa Dennis. The girls both were something scary this year. Haylee was Freddy Krueger, and Makayla was just a weird goblin, monster, creature thing, IDK. So anyways, Makayla was this creature thing, well instead of wearing clothes, she just wrapped a brown blanket around her, and she looked creepy as heck! Well since this blanket was wrapped around her, she had to hold it on, which made it very hard to hold a trick-or-treat bag... so Bryan being the kind person that he is, held her bag and walked up to each door with her, and let the people know that he was holding the bag for her because she couldn't! HOW SWEET! HAHA. We walked around for an hour or so, and then the girls finally had enough of the sweat dribbling down their faces (remember, they were wearing masks!). So we called it a night, and headed home to inspect the candy. The girls are the sweetest, they always split all of their candy between all of us in the house!

I had a great birthday, and the girls had a great night trick-or-treating! :] Hope you guys did too!

Day in Riverside ....

Friday, October 31st (my birthday), I woke up to a phone call for Bryan (by this time, he was already long gone at work). Bryan told me to reach over because he had left something on his pillow, this thing happened to be a letter that he wrote for me :] It contained all the mushy stuff, I love you more than anything, etc., At the bottom, it said "After all that, get your butt up and get ready, cause Im not going to let you sleep your birthday away!" ... and at that point in the letter, Bryan walked in the door with a dozen roses! Then he informed me that he had requested the day off, and that we were going to Riverside to go shopping for me, go to lunch and go to the movies! :] It was nice and simple, and I loved it!

So we went to the Riverside Tyler Mall, I bought some MAC Makeup that I have desperately needed, and Bryan bought vans (with his leftover birthday money), we ate lunch at the cheesecake factory, and then went and saw SAW V (not recommended by the way). Sadly, after having this great adventure, we only happened to capture ONE picture, and its not even of us!! :[ We were just too busy having fun!

All in all it was a great way to start my birthday. Thanks Bry<3

Sunday....

On Sunday evening, Grandpa and Nana came over for dinner, cake and to give me my birthday present. They brought yummy Pizza Hut pasta, and Grandpa made me a beautiful, and delicious cake, and I got $50 from them! :] Yay!!! We had a great time talking, and then we played Wii! :]

OMG! Our birthday party was amazing. The decor was great (sorry, I don't have pictures of it, just what you can see in the background of the pictures), we had a great turn out of people dressing up, and of course had soo much fun!! We had about 50-60 people come, including our friends and family, and Brandon's friends and family. It was great. The party started at 7pm and lasted till 4am. WOW!

Birthdeay Dinner @ The Young's

On Bryans birthday, October 24th, we went over to Bryan's parents house for a birthday dinner for him and I. We had yummy taco's and a great brownie cake :] We both opened our gifts from them as well, Bryan got $30.00 and I got $20.00 :] It was great to spend Bryan's birthday over there, we had a great time. Bryan also had opened his gifts from me the night before, I got him a nice, long sleeve, gray button up shirt, a white and blue striped polo(pictured above), a Slipknot tshirt, and a Jamba Juice giftcard.

SoCal Fair

For Ronnie's actual birthday, we went to the SoCal fair. It was so much fun. We went to the petting zoo, saw some piglet races, ate lunch, walked around and saw all the shops. It was a great way to spend our Sunday. After we left the fair, we had dinner at Red Robin, our favorite restaurant.
