Our Memorial Weekend

For our Memorial weekend we started off by going to Open House on Thursday. I helped my mom spread out all the Lost and Found clothes in the auditorium and after that we had root beer floats. Our school gave them to all the families and called them "Friendship Floats". After that I helped mom hand out PTA papers and then the assembly started. My Principal Mr. J. gave out rewards to the teachers and some of the PTA members. When it was over we went to my classroom. In my room mom and I looked at our Steal head trout frylings, then we looked at some of the art we've done in our classroom and my mom looked at my state report.

After we checked out my room we went to one of the 6th grade rooms and we watched a video that the sixth grade class had made and we looked around and saw their country reports. We were going to go check out the classroom where I want to go next year, but it was really, really crowded so we went back to the auditorium to clean up the Lost and Found and took it home. The reason why we take the Lost and Found home is because we wash it and take it down to Mexico to give to different Orphanages.

On Friday after school we went to the video store and rented three videos. We took them home and we watched one together.

Saturday we went to the store and got some groceries and went home and watched TV for a while. Our neighbor invited me to go bike riding with him and his son who I babysit and some of their friends. We rode around our school. After dinner Mateo came over and I watched him for a while cause his dad had some friends coming over to watch a boxing match.

Sunday we hung out in the daytime, around noon I got on my bike and rode to school and then bought myself a slushy. I saw a couple of my friends at school. Around mid afternoon we went and bought our tickets for Pirates 3 and came home and had dinner. After dinner we went back to the movie. I don't really think this was a good movie cause there was a lot of killing and violence and it was really hard to follow.

Today, Monday, I went horseback riding. It was really fun. I got to go for 2 hours. After my mom picked me up we had lunch on the picnic table and then wrote this blog. This afternoon we have to go into town, so we are going to stop at Jamba Juice.

I hope everybody had a really nice Memorial weekend. I hope everyone also remembered to put their flags out. We did.
