Chapter 18

    The next day, after they (Hanson) get up, they decided to do "The 
Hanson Weekend Tradition". 
    "Hey, guys, let's do the tradition now!" said an excited Zac. 
    "What tradition?" asked a confused Kate. 
    "Oh, whenever we're home for the weekend we make bread for the 
next Sunday morning.Do you want to help?" asked Zac. 
    "Sure! But first I'm going to go write it down in my notebook so 
I don't forget! Then later I can alert the press on this little 
secret!" said Beth jokeingly. 


    "No, no, no Beth! The flour goes in next! Not the eggs!" cried 
Taylor, as they were making the bread. 
    "Oh well! What's the difference?" said Beth. 
    "We ALWAYS put the flour in BEFORE the eggs!" said Taylor. 
    "You want your flour? Well, here you go!" exclaimed Beth as she 
threw a cup of flour at him. 
    Of course he had to throw some back, and pretty soon the whole 
kitchen was white. Including the six people standing in the middle of 
it all. 
    *Ding-Dong*  
    They all ran to the door as Taylor's friend walked in. 
    "Hi Ashleigh." said Taylor, excited to see his friend. 
    "Did I miss something?" asked Ashleigh. 
    "What does it look like!?!" exclaimed Beth. 
    "Who are you?" asked Ashleigh, now noticing the existance of the 
three girls. 
    "Oh, this is Northern Lights. They're touring with us. This is 
Beth, Kate, & Kristin." Taylor said casually. 
    "Oh! I heard about you!" said Ashleigh pointing to Beth. 
    "All good, I hope! And who did you hear this from?" 
    "Taylor calls me sometimes and when he has time he writes. The 
pranks you guys pulled on them were pretty funny, and all about you
was good! Like how Taylor thinks-" Ashleigh started to say, but 
stopped when he saw the look Taylor was giving him. 
    "OK, I think I'll shut up now!" Ashleigh stated. 
    "Mmmmm Hmmmmm." said Beth. 
    She saw Taylor blush as he sat down at the kitchen table, dumped 
his head in his hands, elbows on his knees. 

    After everybody was cleaned up, Hanson wanted to see all their 
friends so they had a huge party. It was the bomb! At about midnight, 
they all fell asleep. All except Ike, Tay, Zac that is. They desided 
to get back at the girls. 
    "Tay, what time does the plane leave tommarrow?" asked Zac. 
    "6:00 am." said Taylor. 
    "Whose backpack does everyone want?" asked Isaac. 
    "I'll take Beth's!" said an eagar Taylor. 
    "I'll take Kristin's!" said a willing Zac. 
    "That leaves me with Kate's!" exclaimed Isaac. 
    As they eptied each bag and put the contents in their bags. Then 
they filled the girls' bags with the left over dough. The next day on 
the plane Tay, Ike, and Zac were unusually quite. The girls opened 
their bags to get out something to do, but instead pulled out a
handful of dough. They guys started laughing. Beth looked over next to
her and saw Taylor laughing. She pulled out a handful of dough and 
threw it at him. 
    "Hey!" yelled Taylor still laughing. 
    "Where's my stuff?" asked an angry Beth. 
    "It's in my bag. Why, do you want it?" asked Taylor. 
    "What do you think?!" exclaimed a sarcastic Beth.
