Swimming in Washington

The other day, me and my family went swimming at the Washington Recreation center with my moms friend and her family. The reason why we went is because we did 100 chores all together. So that was the kids reward. It was a BLAST! There was a kids place for Jace, And slides for the older kids. There was even a big bucket that would dunk water on you every few minutes! There was also a whirlpool that would spin you around in circles! It was awesome! After we swam for hours, we went and ate at Golden Corral in St. George. It was so good! we had such a good day! All we have to do is earn it again!

Missing Out!

I really need to stay updated on my blog! I can't believe how much time goes by. It's been hard to write when my mom wants to use the laptop, and my dad needs it for school. I have to remind myself to write on my blog. I love having a Blog. So this is my chance to catch up on things...

Volcano Day


First I wanted to say sorry because I haven't written anything since August. My dad needs to use the laptop for class. Anyways, On Wednesday, I had to make a volcano and bring it to school. My dad bought black cherry soda, (which your supposed to use coke.) Then he glued it to a big piece of wood. After, we put foam around it piece after piece. after it dried, we spray painted it a brownish, red color. When I was at school, I left from my orchestra class early to put some black spots on it and went to lunch. ( I play the violin.) Then went to lunch with my parents. When I got back, I ended up exploding mine first. (Even though I didn't even know where I was supposed to set it down.) So my mom didn't get out of her class to see it in time. Then my dad opened the lid and dropped in mentos and tried to screw the lid shut. But he didn't do it in time! So some of the soda sprayed at him so he hurried out of the way. The soda went pretty high. It was such a fun day! (thanks for helping dad.)

Alyssa's 5th Birthday

First of all, I'm sorry I haven't been writing posts in a while. I haven't really had time. We just got done celebrating my little sisters birthday. She turned 5. For her birthday she had 9 of her friends come to McDonald's. She was happy with what she got. The kind of cake she got was a Minnie Mouse cake. There was a Minnie Mouse locket on the cake you could open it up and there would be some lip gloss and a mirror.
She had fun...... For a little bit, I've been helping my mom with her new classroom. She's teaching 3rd grade. It's fun. I can't believe that school's already starting! And it's going to be my birthday two weeks from tomorrow!

50th & more!

My grandparents had a WONDERFUL 50th anniversary. I had a great time to. I slept over at my grandma's house for 2 night's. I had ALOT fun with my cousin's. My uncle Matt and my Aunt Jen's family came over for it. I was SO sad when they left. I wished It would of never ended. It's pretty cool because it's there golden wedding. ( if someone didn't know.) On your 25th anniversary, it's the silver wedding. For there anniversary, I gave my grandparent's 6 chocolate Carmel pretzels and a boukay of flowers. The reason why the title of this blog post is 50th & more is because this Friday, is My brother Spencer's birthday! One thing that's so weird is he's going to be 12! Yes, 12. He's way exited because he's going to be in young men. He got to celebrate his family party with all of our family. On his real birthday, he gets to chose 2 people to go somewhere. He chose to go bowling. He's letting me go to! So, Happy birthday Spence!

Hip Hip HOORAY!

ALL of us should be exited for summer! (Hopefully.) Some parent's like summer and others don't. But for kids, It's one of the best thing that could happen. Yesterday, I had a lemonade stand. We earned some money. I also decided that I would change my background, my title, and make my first slide show. I also changed my music box to the color pink. School was filled with good memories though. I loved having my sweet teacher Mrs. Sherratt. She was SO nice. AND SO funny. once she was trying to spell doughnuts. But she really spelled Dognuts. In front of the class! She was such a good teacher. On the last day of school, we had to go meet our new teacher's for next year. My new teachers' name is Mrs. Little. That will be easy to spell. She gave us each a true or false quiz. I got most of them wrong. I think she's about 5' tall. She let's us bring treat's into class. Also, in 5th grade, you have to choose between taking art's rotation OR Orchestra. I can't make up my mind. Well, the point is, SCHOOL'S OUT!!!!!!
