Right now we are having great sunny days! I hope that this will stay for sure because I think everyone has spring fever here! Usually it is all snowy and cold. (Especially because I have to walk up the street on school days at 7:30 in the morning!) I Can't wait until summer so it can be nice everyday!!!!

My Orchestra Concert
I have had to make the decision of whether I should stay in orchestra this year or take an art class for seventh grade. This year, I haven't had as much fun in this class as I thought I would. There is a new orchestra teacher this year at my school and I hadn't had the fun that I thought I would. Now, I know that practicing won't always be fun and games, but I just wasn't sure if I should stay in or not. I finally decided that I would stick with it. I think that it will get better next year.

Nicky's Home!!!!
Nick is home for the Holiday and we are so exited! I am happy that he could be here for Christmas and spend some time with us. All the kids in my family start jumping up and down when we see him coming down the street with my dad. Nick is what makes our family happy when he comes down to see us and our relatives at Christmas. We don't know what we would do without Nick!!! We're Glad your Home!

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.)
