A Brick For Breakfast?

This morning, while eating breakfast,( a bowl of raisin bran) I was startled. Why? Let's start from the beginning
I was pouring cereal into my bowl. I hear a "Thunk" so I stop pouring. I look in my bowl and there is a "Brick" is in my bowl. The brick consists mostly of raisins and has a few flakes of the bran sticking to it. I show it to my mom who after staring at it for seven seconds, snickered in a friendly way before saying, "You must have hit the jackpot."
I showed my dad and since I had already eaten the rest of my cereal, I said he could eat it. He then replied "I will take a picture of it if I end up awake enough to." I just laughed.
The next time you find a brick in a box of cereal, just let me know. :)

Webkinz

I'm so happy. I love webkinz and because a new movie is coming out on April 1st, Webkinz gave me a challenge. I won and so I won a virtual Hopping Bunny and it is so cute! I love it so much! I named it Martine. I hope they have more contests like that!

My Turn!

Hello there. For the most part, my parents have been writing everything. Now its my turn! Its my blog so now I'm taking over. (For the most part.) I can tell this will be fun! Now, almost everything will be in my own words! Yes!

I guess I'll begin by introducing myself. (As if you didn't know me already.) I am almost 11 years old and I love reading. If you hadn't read any good books for a while, why not try The Last Dragon series. It's really good. We have (we meaning my family) have been going to the library. It is really fun.

Like one of the last posts my dad did says: I HATE homework. I think its really boring. Once I almost fell asleep while doing my math! (Of course, it was late and past my bedtime.) If you want to see why homework bores to death, then you can give me your e-mail adress and I can send you my essay on D-Day.

Writing is really fun and on a good day I can write poems. If you want, give me your e-mail adress and I will send you an excerpt from one of the books I'm currently writing.

If you want to learn more about me, keep reading my blog!

Homework - blah!

< start 9 year old daughter's voice >
I HATE HOMEWORK! Why does it even matter if I do my homework. My life is so horrible because I have to do my homework. Woe is me! How can it possibly make any difference in anything if I do it or not. *sob*
< end drama >

So there you have it. The above was a short summary of the events yesterday evening. She's only 9. I thought I had another 3 years or so until this silliness starts. I guess I'll have to bump up my schedule, eh? :)

The Nutcracker

Sara performed in The Nutcracker during the month of December. It was a lot of fun and a lot of hard work! She had the opportunity to perform for one of our local television stations, and I finally found a link to the video online. You'll first catch a glimpse of her at about the 1:40 mark (she's on the right), glimpses of her for the next minute, and then when you reach the 2:40 mark there will be a couple of close-ups!

The actual production was MUCH better than this video clip. But hey, you have to perform where they tell you to perform! There simply just wasn't enough room, the floor was slippery, and it was tile - so the grout made for a very uneven dance surface! Oh... and she was up at 5:00 AM to get ready for this performance. Yikes!

Enjoy!
