My Big Brother, the Ninja-Beater-Upper

Grant is my older brother. He is 13 years old. He wants to be a...well, he said a janitor so....???

Anyway his favorite sports are football, soccer, poker (??) and I guess gambeling? I think he was kidding. His favorite animal is a snake. His favorite vehicle is a dirt-bike, which our parents said he could have if he gets straight A's so I guess he is never getting one.

I think Grant is very funny, like sometimes he sings Katy Perry songs in the shower! He is a great short, big brother who would most likely beat up a black belt ninja to save me from ... well, something.

My saying for the day is: sometimes older brothers can be annoying, but just love them anyway.

Lady Liberty's Nose

I really like the school I go to because the people there are really nice. Like my last year's teacher was really awesome because she let us have tons of free time, but that doesn't mean I'm a dummy for it. She taught me about Lady Liberty and that her nose between her eyes is as long as a fifth grader. I wonder what I would do if I was on Lady Liberty's face?

This year I like school because I have smart and fun friends. Sometimes it's hard at recess, though, because I can't play on the toys like everyone else, but I like to watch the boys play kickball.

I love to learn about history and living things. I do not like to learn about math because 1 + 1 is two and so what???

My saying for the day is: If you don't like school, stay home and eat junk food.

My special friend Chip.

We have a chipmunk that has been living in our yard ever since we first moved here. I became friends with him when I was going down the stairs (when I was walking good), and he ran in front of me into a small hole in the rocks. I named him Chip.

I like Chip because he's very cute and fast. One time we were running up from our secret hideout, and I saw Chip running along the rocks. My sister tried to throw a ball at him, but he went underneath a big rock. He's smart.

I did a little research and found out that chipmunks hibernate in the winter and need tons and tons of food when they wake up. So I decided to build a small house over his hole in the ground with lots of food inside. They next day all the food was gone!!! I'm sure Chip took it. Do you like my house?

My saying for the day is: If you have a hole in your yard, don't stick your hand in it. Trust me. It's not always a chipmunk's home.

Happy Veterans Day, Veterans!

Both my great grandfathers were soldiers in world war two!!! I really like how so many people joined the war knowing that they might die. Because where would we be if they didn't fight? We might have a bomb stuck in our house right now. It's like if we didn't have an army, we wouldn't feel safe. Someone might come and take over America! The army is like a blanket keeping us warm.

I like how soldiers wear camo. I think it looks really cool. My favorite is the air force because I love planes. My whole life I've always wanted to fly!

I bet it's sometimes sad to be in the army. Because if you have a family you are away from them for a very long time. I mean, if something happened to you, then your family would be very heartbroken.

I'm so glad that there are people in our country who will fight to save it!  

My saying for the day is: If you think you are tough, fight an American soldier. You will lose.

I Rode a Horse!

A few days ago I got to ride horses. It was so fun!! There were two horses. One of their names was Ziggy and I got to ride her. We went with my friend ,Rayna. It was my third time riding a horse.  I got to go up a big hill and went trotting up it.  My helmet kept falling off my head! Then my mom got to ride. She wanted me to to take one or two photos and instead I took more than fifty!!!!! Then her phone died because I took too many photos!!!!!!!

My saying for the day is: If you hate horses,  spend 2 years, 30 days, and 21 hours with them, and then decide.

Look how silly this horse is!

Zombies, Statues and George Washington

I was a zombie for the holiday last week. Halloween was fun. I liked it a lot it. They had pizza at the park. Then there were these scary men who looked like statues and when you went by them they would jump out at you. They looked totally like statues with masks. It was cool!

The best part of the day was seeing the horses there they were pulling a wagon full of people. THE HORSES WERE HUGE!!!!!!! The horses were so big that even George Washington would say it was breathtaking!

My saying for the day is: If you see a man standing still on Halloween, stay away.

Big books are better!

I love reading! It is one of my favorite things to do. Right now I am reading a book called Pegasus. It is the best book I have ever read. It is so cool. It has 37 chapters in it and is 6 inches wide and is about the Olympians and Greek gods. It is kind of gory, and I got it at my school library.

My saying for the the day is: If you like to read, read books that are two feet wide.

.

Do you have a hide out?

I have a hide out. Now its kind of a club that only my older sister Belle and her friend Alyssa and my friend Rayna go to. We made in the woods behind our house, very deep in the woods. We call it the secret sister fort.

We like to play a game where you act like you are poor and then you build a house in the woods and then can add to your mini home. Like we added a bathroom and a playground. And one day we will make a zip line. Any way it is a fun game for kids to play!!!!!!

My saying for the day is: If you're poor, go make a home in the woods and live there the rest of your life.

Don't grow a mustache!

Aaron is my dad. He is 38 and is a put-people-to-sleep-nurse. He has passed these REALLY REALLY hard tests. And one time he had a giant test to be done with school. Oh and he was growing a MUSTACHE at the time!!!! He said, "I'm going to keep the mustache on until I pass the test." He did not look good with it.  But he passed the test! I am very very glad.

My dad likes to drive crazy and when I say crazy, I mean CRAZY! It makes us laugh. His favorite football team is the Patriots. He has never missed a game. Dad yells and dances whenever they score! The first thing he ever drew was a football! Dad even tells people that if they like the Patriots, they can move into our house! He was even born on Super Bowl Sunday!

He also likes dirt bikes, crocodiles and cool cars.

My saying for the day is: If you have a dad that is crazy, just do what he says.

Why do birds do this?

So the other day, my mom was sitting in our living room and then she heard two thumps! So we went out side to make sure everything was all right and then she saw two birds laying on the ground below our window. One of them had his eyes shut and was not breathing, and the other bird was laying on the ground and was hardly breathing with his his eyes wide open and was panicking.

Any way the next say we went outside to look, and the bird that was panicking was gone. The other bird was dead. And it is still laying there. I feel so bad to leave it there, but we are going to bury it soon.

This is what the bird looks like.

My saying for the day is; Don't run into windows!!!!!

A big thing that makes me happy

I love to draw! I LOVE to draw because its the only thing I can really do, besides swimming. So, I like drawing animals, people, and the world. My favorite one would have to be animals.

Now, when I was able to walk my favorite thing was to do sports. My favorite sport would be football. My second one would be swimming, and my third would be baseball. Here are some pictures of my drawings.

My saying for the day is:  If you don't know how to draw, practice for four years.

Have you seen a Zorse???

Animals are so cool!!! My favorite animal is a horse. My second animal is a dolphin. And my third one is a lion. I love these animals because I can ride horses, swim with dolphins, and watch lions fight. Did you know that there is an animal called a Yeti Crab?
         
YETTIE CRAB

  

Did you know that there is such thing as a Zorse?

I think the worlds  most ugliest animal is a blob fish.

I think the worlds most prettiest animal is the white lion.

My saying for the day is: Be kind to animals or they will eat you in your sleep!!

I wasn't afraid!!!

I love swimming. I have to do it because it's the only thing i can do to exercise. You know, because I'm in a wheel chair and all. So, my mom got me in swimming lessons, and I got to go on the diving board for the first time!

At first it was kind of scary because when I crawled up there, it looked higher then it looked from below. I can use crutches for a little bit so I used them on the board, and when I got up there, I accidentally dropped one of them in the water! And then I did a belly flop that hurt bad. But I went three more times.

My saying for the day is: If it's your first time on the diving board, go for it!

Here's the video of me:

It's Me, World!

 
My name is Ashlyn. We moved from place to place. Now it's very hard to have a life like this but it's kind of fun to explore the USA. We have a family of six and have each been to Idaho, Utah, Maine, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire. My favorite place would be in New Hampshire. We keep on moving because our dad has a job putting people to sleep for surgery. Right now we are living in New Hampshire. We are not moving any more!

I had four surgery's. My first one was when i was fourteen months. I don't really remember it. On my second one, I was five. That one I was there for five days. On my third one I was seven. I was their for another five days! And on my fourth one, I was eight. That was a few months ago. On that one, I got out after three days! I didn't see that coming!!!

I have a BBBBBBBBBBFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF! Her name is Rayna. We are extremely best friends.We think that we are sisters. I wish we were. So,we came up with Secret Sisters. It's where you spend lots of time together and you make a notebook where you can write notes and things that happened in your day. You can keep it in a hidden place.

My saying for the day is: Be happy or a witch will come after you!
