-Clean my room, and organize it top to bottom.(Sounds like me!)
-Ride my horse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-Train Geegee (A picture is at the bottom of the page)

The first one is Geegee, and the second one is Gus.

Books

 Have you read a book called 'The School Story'? It's really good!

- The girl writes a book
- her friend wants her to publish it
-the girl's mom works at a publishing company
-the girl doesn't want favoritism so her book would get published, so she uses a pseudonym and has her friend as an agent
-READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Also, a book called 'A Proud Taste for Scarlet and Miniver' by E.L. Konigsburg?
The setting in the beginning is a little wierd, because the main character is in Heaven, and she is waiting for her husband to come Up, and her three friends tell her story, and that is pretty much the story, and at the end she tells her own story. The lady's name is Eleanor. The husband's name is Henry. Eleanor was mother to King Richard the Lionhearted, whom you have problably heard about, and Prince John in Robin Hood. Again, READ THE BOOK!!!!!





There. Tell me your favorite books if you want to! Thanks!

Vacation

          My Dad wanted to have a THREE MONTH vacation to Florida. So, we are currently IN Florida, in our camper. This is our 6th day here. Yesterday, it was raining, and today, well, I don't know the weather. I'm sure you want to know where we are, right? We are in Ocala, Florida. My Grandpa lives in The Villages, about 30 minutes away. When we were visiting my Uncle, I caught my toe on a sea wall, and a shell cut through my toe and my toenail. I had to go to urgent care, and get three stitches! It happened on Wednesday. It is sooooooo hard to NOT bump it, because it is in SUCH a vulnerable place. MY FOOT!! My Uncle lives in Madeira Beach, near St. Petersburg. They have a BEAUTIFUL beach there.

Jumps

Hi everyone! I read in a book how to train your mini to jump. I followed the instructions, and my mini seemed to catch on fast. I introduced Geegee (my mini) to a real jump, about a foot off the ground. She didn't know what it was, and looked at me like "What in the world is this?????" I went over it, and then she went over it too. I showed my grandma, and Geegee jumped like she had been doing that for her whole life! Of course, we were facing the gate, so she RAN!! (The book was The Book of Miniature Horses I think.)

Camping

Hello! I just got back from a camping trip in Highland Forest with HLACNY (Home Learner's Association of New York State). It was real fun. We all went on hikes, and looked for letterboxes. There was one thing I didn't like, though. The bathrooms were down a hill, and a short walk. It doesn't sound like much, but when you did that about three times a day, it was very tiring. Add in the walk up the hill, and that is VERY tiring. Well, there was an out house, but it was disgusting and stinky. (I'm sure some of you can agree.) There was a meteor shower while we were there, and I saw 5 meteors (just barely the 5th one). To get there, we had to ride in the back of someone's car, and we were SQUISHED!!!!!! (It was worth it, though). On the first night, there was a thunderstorm, and I can't sleep during t-storms, so some of us got up and played Apples to Apples, and then by 12:00 we were all in bed.  The second day, me and a few of my friends ( Dan, Sean, and Michael) played Cat-opoly. Next camping trip, I'm bringing Horse-opoly. Anyway, we played that for a while, from 7:50AM until 10:00 AM, then we all wanted to go outside. It was chilly, but there was a fire (in a fire pit). That night, our friend Miss Gabby taught me and my friends Eve and Emily how to play Mahjong ( I don't know if I even spelled that right).  By the way, my legs hurt from all that hiking and bathroom trips. We had campfire cones for dessert on Saturday night (only me, my mom, Miss Gabby, Macy, and Mandy). They are simply ice cream cones with chocolate chips, marshmallows, and other toppings, wrapped in tin foil, and roasted by the fire. For more info on HLACNY,  visit their website- http://www.hlacny.com . They have a lot of cool field trips!

Hobbies

Hi again! I just wanted to know what everyone's favorite hobbies are.  I like to draw, design pretend houses, bake (a lot (:  !), write, be active, train my mini, ride my horse, and cook in the crockpot.
