(NOTE: This is a story that I wanted to do and it's been in my dream so
here it is. It's a story about a family that has 7 children, (kind of like
7th Heaven) and that I'm in it. The names are Eric and Annie Camden, Matt,
the oldest, me of course, I'm next, John is next, Linda, Lucy, Sam and
David, the twins. Then we have a German Shepard dog name, Spidey. My
boyfriends name is Mike Dolen. Well, that's all the news I'm going to give
you. You just have to read and find out for yourselves. Enjoy!)
FAMILY GATHERINGS
It was the year 2000 and it was a cold Christmas ever. The Camden's house was a beautiful house in the neighborhood. It has 7 rooms in that house cause after all; it's a large family. The outside of the house was a white color and it has a balcony.
On the inside, it has a big family room, a study where Eric Camden goes for his studies, a kitchen, a small foyer, and small hallway, which are downstairs.
Upstairs, they have a long hallway that leads to each room. Ones for Eric and Annie, another one for Matt, Lucy, Linda, Sam and David, (twins) shared one room, John, and Allison. Allison was the lucky one of them all. She wanted her privacy and with her own bathroom. She got her room in the attic and she was happy about that.
Her mom helped her build her room and bathroom. She was all excited when she got it. The whole family was jealous over the fact that they wanted it too.
They finished with the building about a month to get done. Then all it's left to do is move everything that she owns to move it there. She got some help of course. She could use it.
When all has been moved, she was rearranging some of her stuff. Matt was helping her. They always have a special bond between them. They can always talk if something was bothering them. They know it. Allison was wondering about Matt why he doesn't have a girlfriend. She wanted to help him out but I guess time will tell. But she's going to help him the best she knows how too.
They won't tell the others cause they wouldn't understand. They're too young at their age. Matt is 24 and Allison is 22 years old. That's why they can talk to each other.
Allison's been going out with this guy from school and they've been dating for like 2 yrs. She loves every minute with him but since Christmas is around the corner, he's going to his family's house for 2 weeks. Allison really misses him a lot and so does he. His name is Mike Dolen. He's very handsome looking. He's 24 years old like Matt. The Camden's really like him a lot. They were wondering about when is he going to pop the big question on her. It's really serious between the two of them.
When Christmas came, everybody took a lot of effort to everything around the house. They were decorating the Christmas tree, putting lights out on the house, getting the food ready, making sure that the bathrooms are clean and spotless, doing laundry, making beds up, etc. There were a lot to be done to that house.
Eric and Annie were talking about having some people over for the holidays. They agreed so Eric said to Annie, "Who do you want to invite?"
Annie said, "Let's see what we have on our lists." She was going through each page and calling their names out to her husband.
Just then, Lucy, who was 10 years old, came down from the stairs and said, "What are we doing?"
Annie said to her, "Your father and I are calling some people to come over to our house to get together. Is there something you want or need?"
"No, I'm just wondering what you guys are up too, that's all," Lucy said.
"What are the other kids doing?" Eric asked.
"Oh, Sam and David, well they're to young to talk," she pointed out. "Linda wants to be alone, John and Matt are doing stuff together, and Allison, well she's talking to Mike on the phone. I think she's going to be awhile on there."
"Well, will just see about that," Eric said. "I need to use the phone to call some folks to come over our house. Thanks Lucy for telling me that Allison's on the phone."
"No problem dad. Glad to be of service." She said.
Eric and Annie looked at each other and giggled while she left the kitchen.
"She's something else, isn't she?" Eric said to his wife.
"She sure is. I wonder if she's going to be funny for the rest of her life," Annie pointed it out.
"I don't know." He said. "Well, let's call some people, shall we?"
She said, "Yes, we shall. Now all we have to do is get Allison off the phone for 30 minutes."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of her." He said.
Eric got Allison off the phone and he made some phone calls to invite people over. They called like 20 people and they all can make it. They were glad.
Now they have to make preparation on what they are going to have to eat. Annie made huge lists of groceries to go to the store. She asked if anybody wants to help her and they all want to go. Matt has his own car so Allison decided she wants to go with Matt. She needs to talk to him about something anyways so they left and the others were not far from them.
Inside Matt's car, Allison was wondering about something. "So, you're not dating" she asked.
Matt said, "No. I haven't found the right one yet. I know she's out there, somewhere. I'll I have to do is patiently wait. I know it might be a long time from now but I can wait."
"Seriously? The you can wait that long for the right person to come into your life?" She asked.
That question she asked was annoying him. "Yes I can." He said harshly but he didn't mean to sound like that.
"I was just asking, sheesh. Don't have a cow, ok?" She said.
"I'm sorry I snapped at you, it won't happen again," he apologized.
"You better, or else," she said.
"Or else what?" he asked.
"Or else I'll get you back," she grinned at him. She's being playful. She always loved her big brother.
When they got to the store, they parked the car and got out and they waited for the others to show up. Soon they arrived. They also parked their van and got out. They all went inside and everybody got to get something to make it faster. It's easier for Annie so she doesn't have all day to get everything. So, she splits up the lists and everyone went to do their own thing and bring it back to mom. Except the twins of course. They were to young to do that kind of thing.
When they got what they had on their list, they went back to mom was and put everything in her basket. They had a lot of groceries to take home. I mean a lot.
After they checked out, they went back outside in the cold air and put everything in the van. Then they got everybody in their cars and went home to unload everything.
Once they got home, they unpacked and put everything away.
