Junior Ranger


This week at Nana's house, we took a Junior Ranger hike. What is a Junior Ranger hike? It is a hike on a certain trail where you go and find stuff. It was very fun.

After we were done with our hike, we roasted weenies on the fire. Nana cooked some baked beans to go along with our hot dogs. We also roasted some marshmallows. I did not make a s'more though. Instead, I just stuffed pieces of chocolate into the hot marshmallow. Yummy!

Next we went inside and watched "Spy Next Door" and "How to Train Your Dragon". They were both funny movies. I like them both a lot.

Then we all got ready for bed. I brushed my teeth, flossed and did my mouth wash. Then I went to bed.

On Tuesday, we got picked up by Aunt Heather. We went to a Christmas tree place and decorated a Christmas tree for a contest. After that, we went back to Nana's and started to make some chili for dinner.

Nana taught me how to play Five Crowns. It was fun.

Then Daddy and Miss Cindy came to pick me up. They joined us for dinner and then I went home.

What did you do that was fun today?

Please comment.

El Gordito - The Little Fat One


This weekend, I have my class pet Gordon. He is a fat tailed gecko. That's why I call him the Little Fat One because his name is Gordon and gordo means fat in Spanish. I don't have to feed him because he stores all of his fat in his tail. Gordon can climb walls but he can get smushed easily. He loves to be on your hand. Why? Because he is a cold blooded lizard and your hand is warm. Gordon loves to travel. He is also nocturnal. Nocturnal means that an animal is most active at night. I am having fun with Gordon this weekend.

What did you that was fun this weekend?

Max Jr.

This week in class we have a homework project of taking care of a bean. Now you're probably thinking why is the school making you spend money on fertilizer? If you thought that you were wrong. All Max Jr., my bean, needs is water, darkness, and warmth. Yep, that's it. Max Jr lives in a baggie. It has wet wipes in it to keep it watered and it is sealed. I have been taking Max Jr back and forth to school so I can get a good science grade. Also I am making notes about how Max Jr has changed. This week he has grown roots. I also wrote about the activities he did with me - we made clay faces in art, we watched TV in class at lunch, and took the spelling test. I have taken good care of Max Jr. and it has been fun watching him grow!

Please check out my other blogs and I will see you later.
