Gymnastics

Last night at gymnastics, I almost got my back hip circle. My coach told me that she was right there to catch me if I thought I was going to fall. Then, like she said, I did a big cast and kept my hips to the bar. It went so fast! I didn't know if I did it right so I looked at her. She looked at me and said, "See I knew you could do it! Now all you need to do it work on those arm muscles and you'll have it down by next Wednesday." My face lit up. I was so happy! She said that about 100-150 push-ups a day should help me. I'm so grateful that she is able to help me!

Bye Bye Harley

When I was little, we got a pug and we named him Harley. We loved him so much. The lady at the pet place said he wasn't supposed to bark. But after a while, we noticed that putting two dogs' cages next to each other wasn't a good idea. Harley started barking. Dogs are smart, yet I didn't know they could learn how to bark just by hearing another dog. We later had to get rid of him because he shed too much. It was fun while we had him.

Soccer




I would like to go to South America one day. Also, it would be nice to get to see famous soccer players. Two of the counselors at a camp I went to were from South America. They were really good at soccer. All of the counselors had really goofy names. One was Sun Tea, and the other one was Pretzel. We got to play soccer with them and they were amazing. Sun Tea wanted to be a professional, but he was 24. He said he was too old. I hope I learn to play soccer like them!

Dolphin Tale 2

This weekend I went to see Dolphin Tale 2. It was so sad! The thing that scared me was how old all of the actors were. In the last movie they were little kids. The saddest thing of all was that one of the dolphins died because they got too old. During the show they had the people evacuate because the dolphin died right in front of them. The almost had to send Winter to a different marine animal place because it illegal to keep dolphins in an area by themselves. Luckily they found another female to pair Winter with. At first it didn't go so well and the new female thought winter was a threat because of the way she had no tail. When they put the prosthetic on, it frightened her even more.When they tried it on last time, they said lets hope it works. Then that was her name, Hope. When she saw Winter with the prosthetic on she saw that she could move her tail and she wasn't scared.

My super sized creation is a huge cookie. Its just like your average chocolate chip cookie, but its huge. This cookie can feed a family of four for about five days. Although it has many calories, its really tasty. It comes in many different flavors such as sugar, almond, white chocolate, peanut butter, raisin, and many more. It only costs $9.99! There are also many other super sized creations being made.

9/11



    9/11 was a tragic event that took place in New York. People died and fought to save others that were wounded. Twin Towers was a big part of this devastating story. Jets came and hit both of the towers. The president was shocked to hear this. He was talking to some people one day and one of his men told him in his ear what happened. He tried not to scare the other people by telling them what happened. It was terrible. To this day they are still trying to rebuild it to this day.

Horse Back Riding


On Saturday I get to go horse back riding with my aunt. All of the horses are wild, so you have to run after them and get the reigns on them so you can walk them back to the stables. Only one of the horses are trained, we can't ride them until we train one more. I've saddled a horse up before and the saddle is about 50-100 pounds! First you have to get the blanket/cover for the saddle. Then you have to get the saddle on correctly. Next you tie the ladle, and get the reigns. Now your ready to ride!
