SWIMMING!!!!!!!

Yesterday I had a two-day swim meet. I was in the 50 free,100 free, 200 medley relay, 200 free relay, 25 back, 50 back, 25 fly, and 25 free. My favorite event was the 100 free. In the 50 free, my time of 37:83 qualified me for Divisionals. I won a rubber bracelet with bells on it, a ribbon, and a boomerang. I also won three 3rd place medals and three 2nd place medals. I am really looking forward to the swim meet in January - I will be moving up to the next age-group, though, so it will be challenge.

My Native American Party

Tomorrow is my Native American party. Over the course of three months, my classmates and I have each been studying a different tribe. The tribe I am studying the Chippewa tribe.I'm a member of the Chippewa tribe. They lived in what is now known as Michigan,Wisconsin,Wyoming, and Canada. They made pictographs by biting birch bark. Hope you have a merry Christmas.

Caroling

This weekend I went caroling.It was at a guy named Bob Woolford's house. It was really fun. Before that I went sledding at the same house. They have a really old sled but it went really fast. I really liked that part of the party. They had this really good ham, so I had three pices. I also saw a girl I knew from preschool. My brother lost his gloves. That was sad. All and all, spreading christmas cheer feels good.

The Festival of Lights.

The day after Thanksgiving I went to Cincinnati. We went to the zoo. They were holding the Festival of Lights. My favorite animal was the Sand Cat. It looks like a normal cat only it has a bigger face. We got two green double sided "light sabers". One for me and one for Aidan.

I also liked the " bug house".
It had a long tunnel with ants going through it. That was my favorite part of the "bug house".
