The Super Fast Water Slide

I went swimming with Victoria and Marisa. I went down the slide, don don don... before I knew it, wooosh. I went speeding down the slide. I went again and again. I went 19 times. I had an awesome time going down the slide! Then there was a safety break, then we went to get a snack. After the safety break I went back on the water slide again and again and again. Then I wanted to go so I said to my mom, “Can I go one more time please mom?”

“Thank you,” I said after we went home. I had a fun time going swimming.

My Grandma’s

I got to go to my Grandma’s house! I felt great. I really wanted to go. Now we finally went. I was bouncing in my seat. We got some lunch and got McDonald’s. We got there . I jumped out the open door and said hi. I said hi and bounced outside and I saw the garden. I saw all the vegetables. They looked good. I went back then suddenly someone opened up the door. It was my auntie and uncle Austin and these girls came in. I said, What is your name? The two girls said there names. One girl’s name was Alley and the other girl’s name was Katie. I said my name was Barb. I said what is your age? And they said 5 and 6. My age is 7 too and that was very cool.

The Bike Ride to the Coon Rapids Dam

My family is going to the Coon Rapids Dam. We all take off on our bikes. We ride past houses. We come to a stop. We keep on going. We saw a TV on the side of the road. We go on a trial. The leaves fall upon us. We stop to get a drink and I take a sip. I found a dead bee on me. The wind was blowing in my face. My hair was swinging through the air. I keep pedaling my feet were getting tired. I saw a park. My bike was getting out of balance. We came to a stop. “We’re almost there,” said my mom. My pedals on my bike were going faster and faster across the trail. The wheels were going round and round. My hands were holding on tight.

Sweat was dripping down my face. We finally got there. We rode our bikes on the cement. The water falls were streaming down the water falls. There were fishermen at the side.

Our bicycle wheels turned around as we rode slowly across the sidewalk. As we rode across we turned onto a different sidewalk as awe stop to make a decision which way to go. My dad fixed my seat because it was crooked. His had touched my seat as it turned. Cars were going passed us. My little brother started talking in baby language. Our bikes started moving again and we went a different way than we went before. We pass tree. I looked ahead of me and we were getting closer. I was getting happier and happier. We rode to the rocks in our driveway. I get off my bike. I took a step on the grass and went in the shed to park my bike.

Daisy

I went to Daisy Camp and someone got sick and it was my friend Alana! She and my friend Emma were in a room with two beds but Emma wasn’t sick. She was just helping her. So no one was going to get sick. They finally got out and they had lunch and dinner with us and then they went back in. When it was time to leave they came out and I went back home. I was tired and I went to sleep. The next day I went to school. I brought my Daisy bag and talked about my bag and the next day I went to my Daisies and we did a skit because we were doing it for our moms. We were going to do it by the next Thursday. I was so excited I was jumping for joy. I couldn’t wait for Thursday and then I got a gumball. I got green and then Amber’s mom drove me home and I got on the TV. I watched a cool show. I did not know what I was watching. It was a girl show.

Oh my goodness I was tired. I needed a nap. I went to brush my teeth and I went to bed. I heard something. I thought it was a ghost. I wasn’t afraid. I knew it was my cat Emily. She jumped on my bed and she tickled my feet with her claws. She crawled around my neck. It tickled. She meowed. Cats are funny ha, ha. Then she dropped on the floor.

Facing Ben

On Saturday I faced Ben’s flag football team. They were really good but at the second Noah got a touchdown. Then it was 6 to 12. I got a flag. It was fourth down and they went for a big bomb. He passed it and they caught it but I got the quarterbacks flag just before he threw it. Once they did a reverse somebody was blocking me but I got his flag so we won.
