You know who you are.
I know you do!
You want to know how?
Because... "I MADE THIS FOR YOU!"
Now that I have that out of the way...
Hello Reader!
This word, along with several others, was part of a game my family played with the Ferguson family Friday last. The actual definition is somewhere around the house, but I haven't the time nor enthusiasm to search for it. SO, if you are curious enough to discover the actual definition of the word above, I suggest you Google it. Good luck!
Friday morning Grandma took us out to Tim Horton's for breakfast (Hehe...). I had an iced coffee and cream filled doughnut. Let me just say, if Police Officers get Tim Horton's EVERYDAY before going into work, I want to be a Police Officer. Just say'n.
On Saturday, we attended Rose Klein's open house! It was lots of fun. She had the best Oreo cake ever... No joke, I must have eaten half a pound of the stuff myself. We had to leave early because we were picking up some friends for another party later that night, which was a HUGE disappointment because right when we were headed out, Kristina, Reuben, and the Andrew's family showed up. BUMMER. :P
Later on, we picked up the Witzke boys (Two VERY good friends of the family) and gave them a ride over to the Lamain's house. The party was for the students of our History Class this year.
For the longest time, we were waiting for the rain to subside so we could play volleyball. Eventually, the rain DID subside, but only for a short while, AFTER we all got out there and started playing. *Sighs* I love summer days like these! Getting wet and grassy without a care.
Regretfully, Grandma had to leave on Sunday... :( Cries of woe and despair from the Hartges children. Thankfully we had things to keep our minds off of her leaving, such as... THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA ON BROADWAY. Well, first we went and hung with Jackie at her open house for a little while. :) THEN we went to Phantom.
Justin and I dressed up. Like, in suits. The show itself was spectacular... I cannot go on enough about it, I was dazzled. But, the past part of the experience took place afterwards.
After the show, we all went out to the Applebee's near our house for a late dinner (About 10:30 P.M.) and you'll never guess who we ran into... Andre and Firmin from the cast of Phantom! They were both really nice guys. They both encouraged us to continue on in performing if it was something we genuinely enjoyed. OF COURSE, Mom had to let them know that our youngest brother had a phenomenal voice. :} He didn't like being put on the spot, be we thought it was great. What a way to wrap up the night, right?! Oh yes, and it turns out that the hotel the cast was staying at was less than a mile from our house. *_*
Monday was really a nothing day to be honest. Essentially spent in perfect laziness and idle activity. Another reason to adore summer.
Tuesday (Yesterday) my cat ate my headphones. Way to go Chloe... They were safe on the table and everything, until she hopped up and chewed them to bits. So I had to go out and buy a new pair. The pair I got wasn't as good quality wise, but they do look cooler in my opinion. My Aunt Sheila also came into town yesterday! She hasn't been to our house for the longest time, so it was really cool. For dinner we all went to Grand Traverse City Pie Co. and you'll never guess who we bumped into there, Mrs. Annis (The Headmistress of TeenWorks). Nuf said. Then we went and saw Robin Hood. AwEsOmE mOvIe!
Whew... Which brings me to today. Today I've come down with some sort of sore throat/sniffle nose cold deal. Apparently I caught it from Justin. *Growls*
Anyway, we went to the mall with my Aunt and bought some World Cup stuff (For those of you who didn't know, USA is playing the UK this Saturday. It's going to be epic, but U.S. WILL loose to the UK. It's inevitable). My Uncle is actually from Britain, so it works out nicely for him... Haha... While at the mall, we had lunch (Chinese) and I bought a new belt.
Tomorrow, Christine L. is holding a Monopoly party, and I REAAAALLY want to go, because on Monday, she leaves for Indiana. SO, I am going to make every effort to go to that party tomorrow, even though I stink at Monopoly.
Friday through Sunday... Is the Ordeal. Technically I'm not supposed to know what we're doing, but I do. Thanks to Mr. Ferguson and Luke. BUT, I'd rather have a head's up then find out when I get there...
Let me just say, what they're going to have us do is crazy, insane, and... Unheard of for me. I don't know how I'll get through the day. I know I will... No doubt about it, as long as I'm determined everything will go fine.
Ferg! I know you're reading this, am I allowed to say what we have to do... ?
Anyway, what we have to do is designed to teach us diligence. It'll be a bit humbling, but it's not impossible. What should happen to us if we fail, I do not know. All I know is that I've waited a very long time to become a part of this mysterious order, and now that the time to prove myself has come... I'm a little intimidated. Haha... However, I know it will all be worth it in the end to know that I have attempted, and succeeded.
This weekend is going to be intense, but I'm ready.
Thank you for reading,
~Jacob

Hmmm, make sure you tell us what the "ordeal" was!!! :)
That is so cool about Andre and Firmen!!! Gosh, I wish I had been there! Haha, you should have made Nathan sing! Aww, he is so modest.
I'll be sure to tell pieces of it. But what actually happened cannot be posted... Luke assured me of that. :P
We should have! But in Applebee's?? He was like, "Mom, stop... We're in public... PLEASE." It was a comical moment.
Also, what ever happened to buzz? You just, disappeared. Not cool.
okay, sad.
haha!
Well, I was banned from using it. I know. Lame.
