Tulsa and Fort Worth

We arrived in Tulsa yesterday night, and I just woke up. Mom's trying to find us something to do today, and we are watching TV. I just found out we're going to the zoo today! I've never been to this zoo before! I wonder what animals they have ... maybe they have an aquarium there! No, I don't think so, at a zoo they have animals and at an aquarium they have fish. Anyway, that is not for a few more hours. I'M BORED!I mean, I'm confused.Whenever Dad goes to Tulsa, he comes back and says it was fun, but so far I've only sat and watched TV. I hope it gets better...

Before we went to Tulsa, we went to Fort Worth to visit my friend Brighton. When we slept, we made a fort out of bedsheets and blankets. It was really comfortable, to tell you the truth. But when I woke up, Brighton was always asleep, so I went back to sleep until she woke up. When we woke up, we got on pretty dresses and lots of makeup.  We went to a cool park and had lots of fun with some of my old friends like Jackson, Maddie, Camryn and of course, Brighton.  We had to leave but I didn't really want to.  Brighton has lots of good ideas and most of them we excute into action.  I can't wait to go back and be with my friend Brighton, again!!!

But for now...we are off to the Zoo!!

Family Fights

Yes! School is out for the week, and I'm sitting and relaxing. I was thinking about playing in the playroom with my brother and sister, but I decided it was too chaotic WITHOUT me in there. ( Trust me, this is very serious, me+ Susannah + Parker= trouble.) I don't know why, but  sometimes Susannah and Parker don't like each other.So when I try to sort out their fights, it only gets worse. Today's fight was about a hairband. Parker broke Susannah's  black hairband, and Susannah gets mad and tells Mom. ( I think in the end, it will drive me crazy!!!)
When they fight, it can be really annoying.

Art Class

Today in art class, we did watercolor flowers. We started with the background, and I had the choice of the colors blue, yellow, or pink. I chose the color pink because pink is not dark or light. It is a mix of dark and light!
It does not clash with many colors, like blue or yellow. After we finished painting the background, art class was
over. I had lots of fun!!! By the way, if you know anything about Tennessee, please tell me because I am doing
The Big Six project on Tennessee.  The Big Six project is where we will learn and answer 6 questions about research on the state that we chose.  I picked Tennessee!

1st Softball Game


  
My first softball game HAD to be my finest hour out of all 6 seasons of my softball career. I hit every ball pitched to me. I practically hit my coach, who was pitching, but he jumped sky high just in time! I also made7 outs! ( I am not not exagerating, my mother counted) I play first base most of the time, but we have to switch out
every other inning. When we switch out, I play short stop.( I slid to second and got an out there) I had the time of my life at that softball game!  We lost our first game 9 to 11, but our team played great!!!  In our second game, we came back and tied the other team 10 to 10 in the last inning.  Our team had lots of fun together today.  My good friends on the team are Kylie, Brooke and Bailey.  We all played together in the fall and now we are back together with Coach Randy this spring.  I LOVE SOFTBALL!!!

Mock Rock

This week in school we learned about mock rocks. They are not real rocks, so we call them mock rocks. Mock Rocks are clay with tiny dyed rocks inside them. We crushed them into powder, and then we put the dry clay in
a vile. We then poured water in the vile and waited until morning. In the morning, the water was green! We poured the water into a peetree dish. The next morning, there were crystals were the water used to be!!!  We did this because we are studying rocks and minerals.  It was very fun and I got to bring my crystals home.

Thank You!

Thanks for all the awesome comments! I was so excited about the comments when my mom told me that I had 5 comments on one post.  I was very happy!  After I finish the Hobbit, I think I will read the Invention of H.C.  Right now I am watching my sister run around the room with my mom right behind her, trying to brush her hair. We went to the library just yesterday, and I got 11 books, but I couldn't carry the book bag. I am writing this all
before school,so I am in kind of a rush. Don't want to be late for school!!!  Hope you have a great day!

The Hobbit

My game went great! I hit a lot of balls. Awww! It just started raining, so let me just go and put my jump rope
away before it gets soaked! Anyway, my team did really good. I think we won, but I don't know for sure
because Coach never told us.
Right now I Am  reading The Hobbit. I am only on page 69, but so far it is a great book. It is about Bilbo Baggins (He is a Hobbit, a little person half as tall as you.) and his adventures with a couple of dwarves and a wizard. If you have read it, don't tell me the ending!!!
