Hey people! What’s up? Right now, I’m at tech club with all my friends and loving it! Here we do things like podcasting, internet-site-making, and Scratch (custom animation). My teacher is the coolest, the awsomest and all around best! And for all you book lovers out there, I’m reading a book called Indian Captive: The Story of Mary Jemison. That book is seriously ROCKS!!! Read it, now! Look for a review once I’m done!

I’m so sorry I haven’t blogged in a while! Let me catch you up. I’ve ended summer holidays and gone back to school. My teacher rocks! We, as in my classmates and I, have had a lot of fun. My soccer season has started, and I’m doing great! Four goals in three games!

Oh, did I mention that I went to New Hampshire for two weeks in August? Yeah, it was fun. I even flew up alone and stayed with my grandparents (alone) for a week. Then, my parents came up with my sisters by car. Since my grandparents live on a lake, we had lots of fun. Kayaking, canoeing and swimming galore!

I also went biking. My dad took me mountain biking for the first time! So fun!

Then, of course, there was Tamarack the black lab, my grandparents’ dog. So loving, and cute. Tamarack loved me. I loved her. But now, she’s up in heaven playing catch with Seamus, my dog… I miss them so much. I liked the fishing, too. Tamarack would fish in a little cove, beside the house where I stayed.

Well, I went home, and sports started up again. I already mentioned soccer, so I’ll talk about swimming. So far, so good. I think I’m getting better. And I made a couple friends.

My 10th birthday happened soon after I got home. I invited a lot of friends to my party and got some really cool presents, including five Webkinz! We had lots of fun decorating cupcakes, playing kickball and doing lots of other things. Well, gotta go! See ya!

 

Busy Day! March 24, 2007

Whew! What a busy day. I had the championship swim meet, 2 soccer games, the City-Wide Science Fair, and now my parents are going out to an awards ceremony for my Dad’s section of the newspaper. Alanna’s coming to babysit. Guess what? I got first place in the City-Wide Science Fair for my grade level and section. We won our second game in soccer (I scored two of the 7 goals), and I got second in Freestyle at the meet. Today was BUSY!!! (and Millie scored a goal in her game too)

 

Flu! February 22, 2007

Filed under: school — elliesnoise @ 10:50 pm

Mom here- I am writing this since Ellie is down with the flu. Two days ago Ellie came home from school feeling a little punky (though she did still go to swim practice). She started spiking a fever that night and was home all day yesterday with a fever and headache. Went to the doctor today- diagnosis- flu. She is right in the middle of Science Fair week at school and Ellie wanted very much to present her project to the judges so we ran by school after the doctor. She went in and presented it but was interupted with a bout of nausea- poor thing! Her sisters and I went to the Science Fair tonight and her project was FIRST PLACE in the fourth grade. GREAT JOB ELLIE!
