Lap Loom
For Christmas one of the things I got was a Harrisville Designs Lap Loom. I started working on it a week ago when I first read the directions. This is what it looks like so far. I hope it turns out!  |

Today
Today is the last day of May. We have gardened alot today and have eaten a popsickle. I dug up Potatoes because it is my favorite thing to do. After we left me and my mom went to the woods to get Stinging Nettle that I found yesterday in a shady part of the woods. We really got poked. There are delicious Blackberries and Honeysuckels back there. After that my dad, brother, and I went swimming for the 4 th time this month. Now we have come home from the pool and got out of the shower. My brother found a 2 nd tick on him. I,ve had 2, but mine haven't burrowed into my skin like Jett's has. Except for Ticks it has been an great summer. Though it is extremly hot and very bright. |

The Youth Mueseum
On Monday I went to the Youth Mueseum. At the Youth Mueseum you ( if your a kid ) get to act a part in a play about the American Revoloution. I got to be George Washington. After the show is over you get to go to the gift shop. The gift shop has rock animals, rabbit-fur keychains, quill pens, paper airplanes, whips... you name it. And there is no tax!! What's really exciting to me is that my cousin works at the shop that carves the wood. Outside there are lots of neat things. Tent Catipillars, airplanes, and an old train caboose.I can't wait to go back. |

The Possum Experience!
Today I went to the Wesner's house with my mom. The Wesners are my neighborhood friends from the homeschool group. Mom, brother, and I went and 1 other friend, the Bowers , went to. After the moms exersized and the kids played we went on a field-trip. We went to a spot near the river close to our house. { The Etowah River } . We found that the Bowers had made a trap and a possum was in it! We poked it with a stick and it finally came out. |

The Disaster of Georgia!
It was a normal Saturday morning when mom told me to turn on the news. I turned it on and a forcast said there was a Tornado!!! I grabbed some boardgames and me, mom, dad, and Jett went in the basement. After a while we decided to come out, but we suddenly saw our lights flicker on and off. The power was out! Later me, dad, and Jett went to the store. Luckily the power wasn't out there. When we came home the power was still out. By 7:00 pm it was on. That made it 7 hours or more of power outage. On March 25 I saw what made the power outage so long. The power line poles had fallen over, causing power lines to fall to the ground. I'm so glad the power came on so soon. It was pretty bad, and it was only about 4-10 miles away! Also all the rain is helping clear the drought. I'm thankful God made me safe.  |

Fishes!
My fish had babies yesterday! The baby guppies are very cute. I now have around 8 baby fish, that are very pretty. Most of them are yellow, some are orange, some are red, some are orange and yellow. My fish are also very fast growers, give them 1-2 month and their full grown.
Mom's fish are Angel fish, Quatara and Gill are 2 of them that are laying eggs. The eggs though, are on the filter and the eggs are falling off and getting eaten. But it is not to bad because we should feed them baby shimp that we should raise ourselves. Once before the batch of eggs were laid, one of the Angelfish ate a guppy whole because we were going to move my fish into mom's tank! So we had to move them back.

Exciting!!!
Today it is snowing and it is very beautiful. It is snowing, then sleeting, snowing, then both, then snow, now sleet, now very beautiful ( The most beautiful in my life the little it snowed in my life ) it's very light fluffy, and lots of it, so that when I went outside I got very wet. The sunset was going to as always be the most pretty part of the day, but the snow is. I have never seen prettier snow! Now it is the next day, and the snow is melted because it is not 46 degrees f., it is now 54 degrees f..
In Cade Lee Karate, owned by Master Sean Dyer, I broke my toenail so it looked very bad and cracked. It was bleeding in Karate alot so I sat down for 2 minutes, but got I back up and did more Karate and I got a stripe for getting back up. |

My vacation to be...
I'm going to Disney World in February. It's on the east side of the state,and it's 6-8 hours from my house. I'm very excited!!! I'm going for 7 days and drive most of 2 days.
I went to Disney World as a 2-3 year old once. I don't really remember it, but I know now that there are fireworks every night, has 4 parks (Epcot, MGM studio, Animal Kingdom, and Magic Kingdom.) and their are 2 water parks. (Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach) The park began in 1901 Chicago, Illinois December 5. (Did you know Mickey was going to be named Mortimer?) Good guidebooks are Walt Disney World for kids by kids!, Walt Disney World 2007, Walt Disney World with kids 2007, and Birnbaum's Walt Disney World 2005. |

Hurrah!!!
Mom is turning 39 on February 4 2008. (Or the first day of our vacation.) I'm excited because after mom's birthday and the rest of the vacation it will be my birthday 2 days after we come home. I'm going to be 10 on February 13 2008. I think my party is just going to be at the American Girl place in Atlanta,because I like American Girl,and I have two dolls. (Julie Albright, and one I named Holly because I got her at Christmas.) I also know what a American Girl place is like because I went to one in New York last winter.
The American Girl place is great!!!! They have all dolls on display in the lobby on the main floor.The main floor also has their merchandice. Another floor has the restraunt and American Girl shows. Another has the doll hospital. |

My Great Vacation!
A few days ago I went to Chattanooga,Tennessee.It was such a great vacation I wanted to stay for days.The first thing that we did (me,mom,brother,and dad) was go to the Creative Discovery Museum.At the museum we played in the water section.Then we played in the building section.Then we played in the Rooftop fun Factory which was the most fun part of the museum.Then before we left we went to the dinosaur digging spot where you can hunt for real dinosaur bones.
After we had lunch we went to Ruby Falls.The cave had beatiful stallagmites and stallagtites.The waterfall was also very very beatiful.The pool below the waterfall helps the ground drain the water into the Tennessee River.Springs above the waterfall go down into the earth to make the waterfall.
The waterfall has an amazing history about a man crawling for 17 hours to find Ruby Falls, which he named after he wife Ruby.
Chattanooga is a really fun place to vist I hope you visit to! |
