The Witch of Blackbird Pond January 24, 2008
I read this awesome book called ‘The Witch of Blackbird Pond’ by Elizabeth George Speare. Katherine Tyler (Kit) has to move from her Carribean home of Barbados to the cold, unwelcoming Connecticut Colony to live with people she’s never met, and who don’t even know she’s coming! Once settled in, Kit takes an instant disliking to her new life. Her Uncle Matthew has the stern ways of the Puritan religion, and his family cannot do many things, such as not being allowed to have any decoration on their clothing and they must go to church twice on Sundays. Other then that, they work. The only place Kit feels at home is the meadows. When she befriends the witch that lives there, and is accused of witchcraft herself, what will she do? Who or what will save her? “The Witch of Blackbird Pond” is an interesting book full of secrecy and suspense, with a bit of romance mixed in. I’d recomend this book to people 9-100! Make sure you check it out!!
Christmas video December 25, 2007
I love this music video. It’s “Love Comes Down at Christmas” by Jars of Clay, and is very funny.
SNOW!!!!!!!!!!! March 17, 2007
It snowed, it snowed. If only a tiny little bit.
It still snowed. It still snowed.
It even stuck to the chair. And I made a snowball…
And now it’s all gone. 
I saw a Broadway musical March 4, 2007
Today I saw a great Broadway musical called The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee! It was really really good! I had so much fun!!!!!!!!! My mother and grandmother came with me. It was about some “kids”, played by grown-ups, who are in a spelling bee. The musical was really quite comical. I caught some candy and a dictionary card that the actors were throwing at us! It began at 2:30 and ended at 4:15. After the musical, we went to Trader Joes. While my mom, my grandma, and I were at the musical, my dad and sisters were at the Virginia Living Museum.
Oh, by the way, I’m over the flu!!!! Bye for now!!
