Bananaquit

Bananaquit I took this picture!!!!! For February vacation I went to the Caribbean on St. John.  We stayed with my grandmother’s friend, Sally.There was a big porch with a swimming pool, a table and 4 beach chairs. On the first morning of February vacation, my Grandmother told me that a bird called the Bananaquit   loves sugar water. So we went outside, got the bowl, then took it inside. We put a lot of sugar and some warm water in the bowl to give to the birds. Then I carefully took it back outside. As soon as we got inside again, two came immediately. They were about 4 to 5 inches and had a  big bright yellow belly. The rest of their bodies were black.   I thought that were very cute. It was funny to watch them bend up and down to get the water. Some times there was as many as 8 all bunched up. I got them water almost every day.

Click, Clack, Moo: Cows that Type

Click, Clack, Moo:  Cows that Type This fall I did something very exciting. I was in a play called “Click Clack Moo.” It was run by three high school students, named Molly, Jenny and Erica. They were called Center Stage. There were twenty or so kids and we rehearsed at the Armory Center for the Arts. Every week we would play awesome games. One was called “the bus ride of dooooooooooooom” where Molly would go around the circle and choose one person to come on the bus. Then she and everyone on the “bus” would have to act like that person who just came on.   Another game was the “belly race” where everyone would get on their bellies and race to the other side of the big room. Whoever won, would get a five second penalty so other people could have a chance to win. Once I won twice in a row, even with the penalty. Other times we did things for the performance.  Sometimes we would practice our parts. I was Patric the pig. I would sit down at a table with the o...

Snow Day Fun

Image
This week, we had a snow day.  We got about a foot of snow. It was the best snow we have had all winter because it was awesome for snowballs, and snowforts too. I had a great day in and outside on my snow day. When I woke up I got out of bed and looked in my brother and moms beds, they were asleep (dad was traveling). So I went downstairs with my book, got a blanket and pillow and sat down on the couch to read.  This was a great way to spend my first few answers because i did not have to stop because it was a snow day. After i had eaten breakfast I decided it was time to go outside. I got on my snow gear and went out to play in the snow with my brother, Max. First we went to the back yard to make a snow man.  Then we realized no one could see our work so we squashed the snow balls all together and took them out to the front so people could see. We saw that we had so much snow so we wanted to make an igloo. A few years ago Mom and Dad bought snowbrick makers. So w...
