My Dream Birthday

My dream birthday would have the school turned into a video game arcade and an all you can eat pizza buffet. I will invite all my friends too. We would leave at 9:00PM. Everybody would spend the night at the world’s biggest Jell-O house. It will be 100 feet tall and will have tons of space inside. There will be 2 separate rooms. One will have cake and ice cream, and the other room will have a huge fridge with soda and pizza inside. We will party all night by watching movies. First we will watch Oz The Great And Powerful. Next we will watch The Croods. Finally, we will watch Escape from Planet Earth.

Dad Coming Home Early!

When my dad came home early I screamed, DAD!!”  We missed each other. 

My dad is in the Navy.  He went to set traps for guys overseas.  He was gone for almost a year.  While my dad was gone my mom, brother, sister, and I played games like “Hiss”. We went to school and work.  We missed my dad but we had to carry on.  We talked to dad sometimes on the computer and the phone, but it wasn’t the same.  We looked at pictures of dad on our Kindles.

 One day we talked to dad and he said he would be home soon.  I didn’t know exactly when that would be.  Then one day, we pulled in the driveway from school.  My mom hit the button and the garage door came up. I  was so excited to see my dad standing in the garage!  I dropped my school things in the house and ran out to give him a huge hug.  I was so happy to have my dad home!

My Trip to Ohio!

        It was a chilly day.  Danielle, my sister, and I were going to Ohio for winter break.  We were going there to visit my dad and his girlfriend, Ashley.  I only get to see my dad a few times a year, so I was very excited.  It was also exciting that we got Christmas presents!  We got snow globes and butterfly things to decorate our room.  We got Ashley a teddy bear and some candy.  I can’t remember what we got Daddy.  We stayed in Ohio for a couple of days.  It was fun but then we had to leave.  We said goodbye to Daddy and Ashley.  I felt upset.  I can’t wait to go back over summer break!  Going to Ohio makes me feel happy inside.

My Baby Brother

When I was seven years old my mom had a baby. I went to stay with a friend from my swim team while mom was in the hospital. My dad came and picked me up. We went to the hospital to visit my mom. When we got to the room there was a cake. My mom was holding the baby. It was a baby boy they named Eli. He was sleeping. He had a soft spot on his head. You could see veins through his skin. I touched his head and he felt so soft.

A couple days later mom and Eli came home from the hospital. I liked having a baby in the house. He couldn’t do much. Now that he is a little older he kicks me, tattles on me, and bites me. Sometimes I wish he was a cute tiny baby again!

Hot Dog and a Hot Dog!

One hot summer day I woke up. I was so excited! I got dressed and wanted to run downstairs but I couldn`t until my parents got up! Finally they woke up. I was telling you about this because… I WAS TURNING 7!!! It was my birthday, July 2^nd..      

Anyway, I was already downstairs opening a present. It was a tennis game! My mom said she was making chocolate pancakes. WOW!  Then I opened a LPS (littlest pet shop) hospital. I wanted that so bad!  I also got a UK head band.  I tried it on and it looked good with my pink shirt and jean skirt.  Later my mom served the pancakes and they were delicious! Yum!  After that I got to go to build a- Bear!!  I got a wiener dog, put him in hot dog costume and named him Hotdog. Then we went to the pool. We were there for about an hour and then we went home. My dad asked me if I wanted hotdogs or hamburgers for lunch. I immediately answered, “HAMBURGERS!!!!!”  My dad looked to see if we had any and he said, “Sorry, we don`t have any.”   My dad went in the backyard and came in with a long hotdog with candles!  I was so confused.  He gave me a piece and I realized it was cake…chocolate cake that looked like a hot dog.   I loved my birthday so much! At night I got in bed and fell asleep.  I felt so happy.

The Scar

I was jumping on my mom’s bed, having the best time. Suddenly, I fell. My face hit the corner of a picture frame. It stung so badly and I could see blood. I started to cry and wail.

Finally, I was at the hospital. I started to cry again. Mom took my hand and held it. The doctor stitched up my lip. My mouth was sore.

We were finally done. On the way out of the hospital mom saw a big case of cookies. She bought a lion-shaped sugar cookie and we split it on the way home. It cheered me up a little, but I still have a scar under my lip.

Wipeout!

 Water was splashing on me. I got soaking wet. We were paddling and paddling. I was with my mom and dad and a few other people on a white water rafting trip in Pennsylvania. We finally reached the last obstacle, Terror Falls. It was like a mini waterfall. Our guide told us to back paddle into terror falls, so we did what he said.

Then we all screamed, “AHHH!!!”

BUMP! SPLASH!

I fell out of the raft.

The water was like ice. I wasn’t really scared, but I really wanted to get back in the boat! I felt a tug on my life jacket, and before I knew it, I was back in. The rest of the way was short and smooth. It was a really fun trip!
