Palm Springs

               During the week off of school my family and I went to Palm Springs. Our hotel was called Rancho Las Palmas. We had two rooms one for my parents, and one for my brothers and me. We were there for three days Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. I went with a lot of friends.

 

               I went to the pool every day. You had to wear a bracelet that said the day, and it had to say Splashtopia (That was the name of the pool). The pool had a lazy river, a lazy river is when you sit in a tube and just sit there and it pushes you.  I also went to see Shrek Forever After (4).

                                                  

                                         Have you ever been to Palm Springs?

                                   

                                  Did you see Shrek 4?

                           

                            

                          Have you ever been in a lazy river?        

My Brothers Bar Mitzvah!

By Sydney


 My brother, Sam, turned thirteen in May. When you are a jewish boy or girl, and you are thirteen years old you have something called a Bar Mitzvah/Bat Mitzvah (if you are a girl, you have a Bat Mitzvah). My brother had to read from a Torah. Sam shared his Bar Mitzvah with a girl he met in Hebrew School.

 At my brothers Bar Mitzvah: there was a big dance floor, a d.j, lots of flashing lights, and a lot of people. Most of our relatives came from Texas and New York. When you have a Bar Mitzvah party, you sometimes have special colors. Sam's colors were blue, silver, and black.


 During my brothers party, I had to say a speech. When I said my speech, I got a little choked up.  Many people said I made them cry.



Did your brother or sister have a Bar or Bat Mitzvah?


   Does your religion have any special ceremonies?

                      Pictures will be coming soon.

Story: My Favorite Sport Soccer (True story)

By Sydney

      I play many sports but  my favorite is definitely soccer.  Some facts about my soccer career, is that I have been playing soccer for six years, and in fall it will be my seventh season. My team has always been named the Firecrackers.  My jersey number is always “6” because that is my lucky number. Last year my color was blue, and this year it was light pink with a lot of black. A bunch of my friends are on my team. There is Samantha, Maggie, Kerry, Lilly, Marisa, Dariel, Camilla, and Selma (Lilly, Maggie and Marisa, and Kerry all go to my school).

       Second of all, I practice every Wednesday and Saturday. I eat healthy so I have more energy to play soccer and make lots of goals. When I grow up, I want to be a professional girls soccer player. I have to practice to get on the girls soccer team when I am older. Right now my soccer division is GU11 WVSL (West Valley Soccer league, girls under 11).    It is a good thing to like a sport or activity.

                               Do you have a favorite sport?

                               

                    Do you have a favorite activity?

                               

                              If you do, what is it?

                                  

Thank You Nick!

I would like to thank  my friend Nick because he helped me get every thing on my side bar and a second page in commenting. He helped me get the voki, the voting, the links, the cluster map, a second page for commenting, and the daily puppy.


Nick is a really good friend because he is always there for me. He is there when I need a friend. He is also there when I get hurt.


Thank you again Nick.
