I had a good week.  We went many places.  I got a hundred dollars for Christmas from Grandma Judy and Grandma Barth.  I also got Rainbow Loom, Just Dance 4, Minecraft account, a pillow that you can make, a storage box, balloon twisters, and Hunger Games pins.  I had a great Christmas, but on Christmas day I got sick because I ate too much candy.  I gave my Mom a glass violin statue, I gave my Dad earphones, I gave Kevin a flashlight, I gave Cameron a prank phone, I gave Logan a crystal kit, and I gave Emma a night light.  I gave Clara a painting that she could paint.  At my Aunt Carol's house we had lunch and then root beer floats.  It was really fun.

My two brother's built a domino contraption and video taped it.  And I'm the only one who hasn't done it.  Then I make one and I was almost done until Logan ruins it.

I went to Houston for Thanksgiving.  It was a three day trip.  The first day when we went there was Thanksgiving.  Actually, the first day we got there it was at night so we had to go to bed.  The second day was Thanksgiving.  Most of my cousins and aunts and uncles came and Grandma and Grandpa were there too.  We had a big feast and it was really awesome.  And then I begged my mom if I could have a sleepover with one of my cousins.  She said, "Yes."  There's this thing called Rainbow Loom where you make these really cool bracelets and I've been wanting to do it for a long time.  And, she taught me how to make one.  I was so excited!  She even let me keep one of them.

The second day we went to see "Frozen."  I really liked it.  It had lots of surprises in it.  I don't want to spoil the movie so I won't tell you about it.  All I know is you're going to love it if you see it.  It's worth seeing.  We also played a lot of these games: Ghost in the Graveyard, Hide n' Go Seek.  And the third day, we basically said bye to everyone and we ate lunch and went home.  

Q: Do you like sports? If so, which ones and why?

A: Yes, I like sports.  My sport is volleyball because it's really fun because you get to run around and I just really like it.

I went to my volleyball game.  The first game we won and they were very easy to win.  But then the last two games they won by surprise because we started to slack the last two games.  We sewed skirts at Activity Days and we finished them.  And she asked us to wear them to church, and I wore it to church.  And while we were at church my Daddy was in charge of Music Time.  It was awesome!

I went to one of my friend's birthday parties.  HER name was Logan.  I went to her park and we played a game called Groundies.  It was where there's be someone on the ground; they could open their eyes on the ground but not on the playground.  And then the other people would try and avoid the ground and being tagged.  If they touched the ground and the person who was it said, "1, 2, 3, Groundies," then they would be it.

I had a choir concert at school.  I really liked the song we were singing.  And then we started Messiah at the Children's Choir.  And the songs we are singing are, "Wind Through the Olive Trees, The First Noel, and Silent Night."  We split up into two groups.  I was "Wind Through the Olive Trees" and so was Logan.

At school this boy challenged me to a race.  We were going to do it Friday but he wanted to play with his friends so he said he forfeited.  But then he got me in to race him again soon.

So, Thursday it was Halloween.  I was a sassy zebra.  We went trick or treating at my Grandma's house.  I got lots of candy.  My mom said I could go around the block, but then I found Emma right behind me.  I thought Mom and Dad sent her to me so I kept on going trick or treating with her.  On the way up the street I went in this haunted house and on the way out I saw Mom.  She was so happy that she found Emma.

Saturday, we got in a car crash.  I remember my Mom said that the light before I warned her to put on her seat belt.  I was actually frustrated with the car in front of me so I said, "Beep, beep," just as the seat belt warning went off and was beeping.  My Mom thought I was saying "Get on your seat belt" but I wasn't.  All I remember, we were parked and then I hear this screeching behind us and then a big thump right into our car.  A policeman came and he got all of the man's information.  And actually, when the car crash happened I was on the way to my volleyball game.  I was a little late, but luckily we left earlier than we were supposed to.  Wait a second.  If we'd left later we wouldn't have had the car crash.  So maybe it was a bad thing we left early and it was the one time we left early.  From now on we're going to all of my volleyball games and practices late.  Lol.

I went to a Gladys Knight concert at my church.  It was really fun.  It was really awesome.  It really amazing.  Forgot to put, it was... no you don't write that... I meant it's supposed to be, it WAS really amazing.  My Mom and Dad are going on this serious major eating thing.  It's called, We Got to Lose Some Pounds Now.  So, well me and my brothers and sisters are eating unhealthy stuff and my Mom and Dad are eating all this healthy stuff.  It's so boring watching them eat.  My Mom even made this green, brownish smoothie; it's disgusting.  My Mom made me try it for a piece of candy and I did; that's how I know it's disgusting.  (My Mom says that she makes it better and it tastes like sugar now, but now it's brown and it looks even more disgusting.)  My Mom and Dad have been doing their major eating stuff called "We Got to Lose Some Pounds Now" for six days.  It's actually called, "Eat to Live" but I like to call it that.

Q: Describe a time recently when you felt the Spirit in church.

A: Today.  I felt the Spirit when I listened to Sister Hayes's talk and I felt all of it.

Thursday I got a dentist appointment.  I had to get one of my cavities filled.  I had to get a shot in my cheek.  It really hurt.  My cheek was numb for the rest of the day.  And that day my Mom bought me a pack of gum and I couldn't chew any of it.  Saturday, I had a volleyball game.  I ten players on my team and five were out and only five were coming to the game.  So, we could only play with five players.  It was really hard because we were playing all three games non-stop.  Also, Saturday we had family pictures.

My teacher has been gone for a long time.  She's been gone for a month and a half now and she's coming back on Monday.  I made a little booklet for her and my friends made a big card for her.  I mean like a BIG card.

For Family Home Evening we walked around the temple for my games.  It was really fun, but we did it on a Monday night and the temple is closed on Mondays.  Such sorrow.  And then I went to my friend's birthday party.  It was really fun.  We did these Minute-to-Win-It games.  So, we went to Krispy Kremes and dressed up as pirates and got dozens of donuts.  It was pretty cool.  I don't really want to talk about this, but I'll make it quick.  So, Student Council were making their elections and I was running for President but I didn't get it by 10 votes.

We went to Six Flags because our Dad's work paid out the park for the day.  I went on the giant swings.  It was really fun.  We also got free tickets so we can go again.  It rained a lot while we were there, so we still went on a good amount of rides but not as many as we would have.

I started volleyball.  I was supposed to have another coach, but they changed the practices so I changed to another coach.  On Saturday, we had two games in a row.  We won the first, but lost the second.  And then on the next Saturday we lost another volleyball game.

My Mom and Dad were gone for five days because they went on their romantic cruise.  While they were gone we went to Cici's Pizza for a treat.  After they got back, we went to my Dad's work day and we had all these buffets of food.  We went on all of these bouncy houses and got candy and soda.

AS ALWAYS, IT'S THE END!

BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I am new.  I had Xanga, but they told us you had to pay to have it, so we switched to this little Blogger thingamajigie.  And I'm going to talk about my day and week.

So, school started a couple weeks ago.  I really like my new teacher.  Fifth grade is really strict and parents, guess what?  They got us to do homework.  Mean, in fifth grade we wouldn't have homework unless we didn't finish something, but the parents went to our Principal and said, "Our kids need homework."  Which I really don't understand.  I mean, we're at school for 3/4ths of the day, and we have to have homework?  It would be understandable if we had homework over the weekend so we didn't forget, but instead it's the opposite.

My cousin Clara came over and we made necklaces.  But, she forgot hers.  We had a sleep over.  It was really fun.  Baby Olivia was so cute.  My parents painted a bathroom purple.  And I started this book.  It's called, "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" and I'm on chapter six.  Good bye.
