Lies are like snowflakes; they're all unique.

Back in Chapel Hill and currently talking about what it would be like to be athletic rock climbers while watching Project Runway. Roomate Danielle is being outdoorsy recently and I think she is the perfect blend of lovely and brave. We ate tacos and invited Kate over to be with us. The tacos are strictly tv food.
I visited Kenzie's classroom today to help with her class and lie about the gingerbread man's arrival and subsequent abandonment of her first grade class. I have observed that kids fake being sick all the time. Six year old Shelby pretends she can't breath and kind of light headedly weaves her way to the office to go see the nurse. After lunch she decides she actually can breath but now she has to "frow up" and goes home. A few towns over in Durham in Ms. Linville's Kindergarten room five year old Litzy pretends she's choking and as it turns out she's just holding her breath. When that doesn't work she resorts to also having to "frow up". All in all, they're sweet and probably have alot more going on in their little baby lives that I realize. Either that or they are missing something awesome on Nickelodian and absolutely need to go home. Forget learning to read. I mean I lied about the Gingerbread man's existence and answered other questions about how elves found Santa. "Did they evolve those pointy ears?" "Did Santa create the elves?" I answered them all quickly and with a straight face: "The pointy ears keep them warm." "They heard about Santa and invited him to the North Pole by building him a castle and workshop." (I'm kidding) I might as well have pretended to be suffering from a concussion or dying from a fatal flare gun blow. Lying about fictional characters being real is just as bad as "frowing up".

Katie, my beautiful blonde cousin with all the sass and that uncanny bling, I want to hear all about the prom party 2007. I hope you read this tonight. It's what I've been doing for the past two hours.

A word from Jenna's "most loyal counterpart and reader"...Katie Deese

I am really bored with Jenna's blog and am always on her case about updating it. Why this is so important to me I will never know. What you have to understand is that Jenna and I talk on the phone on a weekly basis and I know everything that's going on in her life (or at least I think I do). I found out quiet a bit this weekend and in a very outlandish way which is also a special trait of Jenna's! I guess I feel the need to not only hear about her adventures from her mouth but I also wish to read about it on her blog. So, for those of you that are out of touch with Jenna...here is the update of her last few weeks!

Before Thanksgiving she took an amazing trip to a foreign place which I'm not even sure I can mention the name of. Once again, she was on a mission to reach the world through Campus Crusade for Christ!! On this adventure she had one incident with a flight attendant and it taught her a great lesson and made for great table conversation. Next time your out to dinner have little Miss Feisty give you the run down! Trips like this would have been an unimaginable thing for the Jenna of the past. Years ago folks were concerned she might not make it home from school in the afternoons because her sense of directions was not the greatest in the world. I think it's because she is always writing a chapter for a book in her head and her imagination begins to run WILD! I'm sure all of us will one day line up to get the newest release from the series of "can't put them down" novels by Jenna!

Thanksgiving, for Jenna, is always one of the greatest times of the year! She gets to see all her family (which includes me) and have the best food ever! The most special thing about this holiday is not the actual lunch with family but, the incredible evening that follows. The "Ya-Ya" girls of our family have a sleep-over Thanksgiving night! We eat, laugh, talk, pray and dance like fools!!! Yes, I understand, for many of you, the aforementioned sentence seems like an oxymoron and you will never fully understand it unless you see it with your own eyes. The bond we share is so strong and we all look forward to the night all year! Jenna really lets her golden locks down this night!

This weekend Jenna came to HotLanta to see our family. As usual, the weekend was filled with food, laughter, naps and long theological debates with my husband, Cody. We made a trip to a specialty boutique and made a few Christmas purchases. Jenna, as usual, was thinking of others over her own desires when she found a shirt she really liked but was not going to purchase. I stepped up to buy it for her for Christmas and really went overboard with the $5 gift! I expect gratitude for months to come!

The weekend was really special because our cousin, Shane, was baptized! It was a weekend of "redemption" as Jenna continuously remarked! On the way home from church Jenna made an observation that greatly disturbed her thoughts. She noticed that Chick-fil-a (a Christian owned and operated establishment) has a restaurant called "The Dwarf House". She was highly offended especially when she noticed the dwarf entrance! As always Cody, the great debater, was ready to jump on the train and confirmed Jenna's argument by saying "would people be offended if they had a restaurant called the fat house with extra wide doors?" I, on the other hand, made the comment that Jenna is taking life too serious! This conversation continued to present itself throughout the day with the same comments being made over and over again!

I think all of Jenna's devout readers are now totally informed! You all know this was so much better than reading "Starz" or "People". I know these were short stories so if you would like more details you will have to schedule a lunch or "coffee" with the CC staff member/future famous author! Her life depends on networking!! She's great at it!

Kenzie, our other sister (the real one), we missed you! Jenna, when you read this, try not to criticize the grammar and punctuation! If you could live with bad grammar and punctuation we might have more blogs to read! :)

Keep posted for future blogs (small pieces of literary masterpieces) by Jenna!
