Eggs, Eggs, And More Eggs


I love Easter! Especially the bright colored eggs. But this year I'm thinking different about eggs. This year at church, they're going to drop eggs out a helicopter. How are they going to fill all those eggs? Well, they had to be hand filled by people, including me. So back bent, I fill these eggs day after day. But not only fill them, tape them as well! Okay you might think that's easy but not all the eggs are matched, so it also adds to the long hours. I guess its not that bad, after awhile you get used to doing it. I still continue to fill the eggs, but more happily. It will be fun to see eggs falling out of the sky.

Book Review- The Whipping Boy


I just finished reading The Whipping Boy by Sid Fleischman. This book is set in medieval times and is about a prince and his whipping boy. The heir to the throne could not be whipped when he misbehaved. So they picked a boy from the street and he would be whipped whenever the prince was naughty. The prince is called prince brat in the book so you can imagine his whipping boy got lots of whippings!! One day the prince decides to run away to cause turmoil. He asks the whipping boy to come with him. They go off on an adventure but I am not going to tell you any more you will just have to read it yourself!! It was a great book and I highly recommend it!!

Great Friends


We had such a great time in North Carolina! They have a creek not far from their house and we went down there and caught five salamanders.The next morning we went to go check on them and only one was left!

I have three Wee Three Friends dolls and we spent a lot of time playing with them on rainy days. We also had fun playing a card game called Loot.

We went to see Bridge To Terebithia. It was really cool. It was a lot like the book. We would stay up almost all night talking and telling stories. I am so grateful to have friends such as these.

Where Are My Glasses?


I am so excited that we are in North Carolina! But we had a little trouble on the way. I had given my mom my glasses before we got in the car. It had been about two hours since we left the house and I wanted my glasses. My mom had thought she had put them in the glove compartment. We looked all around and still couldn't find my glasses. I started to get upset when my dad asked my mom if she was sitting on them. She got up and there were my glasses! Luckily, they were not harmed.

Blogging


First my dad, and then my mom started blogging. I asked myself, why not start your own blog? So one night, my dad got me started. The most fun part is picking out a name for your blog, it can be funny and silly, or just about anything you want! The other fun part is picking a background. After all that, all you have to do is fill it with posts. You can post about your life, or stories that you write. You can do book reviews about your favorite books too. Blogging is real fun, I think everyone should do it.

Lego Symphany



This is something really funny that I saw the other day. We were looking for videos of symphonies for school when we ran across this. My brother's and sister play Star Wars Lego all the time. I bet they never see this playing their game.

Enjoy!!!

Smiley-Kylee

Doing the laundry takes a long time. So we always set a time and see if we can make the time. Last Wednesday, when we were doing the laundry, my little brother Josh decided that he did not want to help. When my sister Kylee gets angry, I call her Hopey-Mopey because her middle name is hope. When she is happy, I call her Smiley-Kylee. Kylee was mad that Josh was not helping, so I made up a game. The game was that we had to scare away Hopey-Mopey and free Smiley-Kylee before the time ran out. Soon we were done and had all the clothes put away. Then we started making up names for our self. Here are the ones we came up with:
Good:Faithy-Waithy Bad:Angry-Adele

Good:Smiley-Kylee Bad:Hopey-Mopey

Good:Merry-Michael Bad:Sinister-Seth

Good:Jolly-Josh Bad:Weeping-Wil

Mighty Gaurd Dog

It is so exciting that me and my family are going to North Carolina to visit some friends. Especially since we are going to be traveling in our new car! But when Jasmine, my dog, first saw the new car, sitting in our garage, she freaked out! I was in my room when Jasmine started barking like crazy. My sister, Kylee, was getting dog food for Jasmine in the garage. So, of course, the garage door was wide open. Jasmine was jumping back in forth in and out of the garage, still barking like crazy. We still can't get her to go anywhere near our car. She'll warm up to it, eventually.

Tooth Money Mishap

It is always exciting when you loose a tooth, especially when you find money under your pillow the next morning. The morning after I lost my tenth tooth, I looked under my pillow to collect the money, and all I found was the envelope I had put my tooth in. What could have happened? I thought to myself. That night my mom asked if she could see my tooth again. I riped open the envelope and sure enough, there was the missing money! The envelope was sealed and looked just like it had when I first put my tooth in it. OOPS!
