Birthday Fun

Hi. My birthday was in October. I had my birthday party on Friday, though. I had 6 girls over. We went swimming at the W.They spent the night, too.We had an activity to do that my mom planned -  it was to build the tallest building out of spaghetti noodles, gum drops, and marshmallows. It was so hard and they always fell when we let go. After that we watched the movie Gracie. It was about soccer. It was a really good movie and everybody liked it. When the movie was done we all started talking. We must have talked for a long time because when we fell asleep it was 1:00 AM.  I had a BLAST !

Eighth Grade is Making Me Sick

I read a book called Eighth Grade Is Making Me Sick by Jennifer Holm. I loved the book. It is about a girl named Ginny Davis and her life in eighth grade. Ginny shares different parts of her life- cell phone messages, notes, emails, photographs and other items that make this book interesting. 

Disney

I went to Disney World with my family for a week.  There were four theme parks and we visited all of them.  Hollywood Studios was my favorite, then I liked Magic Kingdom the second best, then Animal Kingdom and then Epcot. We went to Magic Kingdom on our first day. It was really hot. My favorite ride there was Splash Mountain.  On the second day we went to Animal Kingdom. I loved Expedition Everest there. It was hot that day, too.  Later that day we went to Epcot. I liked the ride in the giant Epcot ball.  On the third day we went to Sea World, where we took an Arctic Adventure.  We went to Give Kids the World Village on Day 4 (we stayed there five years ago. It was our Make a Wish trip) and ate more ice cream - I love their ice cream.  I got to ride their carousel again, too. The pig is still my favorite.  Later we shopped at Downtown Disney and found a lot of great things in the Disney store. Day 5 was spent at Hollywood Studios. This was my favorite theme park.  Toy Story Mania, Tower of Terror, and the Star Wars ride were all great.  At Hollywood Studios there were no lines for the rides. 

I started collecting the Disney pins.  Each day I got one to add to my collection, except for at Sea World. On Sunday we went to Clearwater Beach and saw the Gulf of Mexico. I loved it.  

While we were there we stayed at a house we rented. There was a pool and game room that I loved. We each had our own bedroom.

I read the fiirst Babysitter's Club book .Kristy had a great idea.The idea was to form a babysitters club.Kristy told this to Claudia first, then they told Mary Anne.  They decided they needed one more person to be in the club. Claudia suggested they ask the new girl, Stacey to join them.  I love graphic novels, so I'm glad that they made this first book into a graphic novel. I loved it.

Feather

Saturday I got a feather in my hair. I love my feather.

I just read a book called Two Times the Fun by Beverly Cleary. There are twins that are four years old. Their names are Janet and Jimmy. One likes make-believe things and one likes real things. In one chapter they got new boots. The girl wanted to surprise the mailman with her new boots because she likes surprising people. I loved this book!

Birthday Party

On Friday I had my birthday party. I am turning 8. We went and got henna tattoos and ate pizza. When we got home we had cake from Cold Stone Creamery. We got cookies to decorate. And we watched a movie. We stayed up until 11 o'clock.
