American Library Association Meeting

Over the weekend, my family and I went down to Pennsylvania for the American Library Association Meeting. My dad went for work, but my mom and sister and I went for fun.
   The day before that, my family drove up to NYC so my sister could go to a concert. I walked around New York and then went to my aunts house to wait for the concert to be done. Finally, around midnight, we drove to Philadelphia and got to our hotel. It was a nice hotel, and we all went to bed.
The next day my dad left early for a meeting, so I slept in and them and then went to breakfast. Then we finally got to the exhibits, and I got a lot of free books. After that my mom went to a meeting and the rest of my family went to lunch at Terminal Market. After that, we went back to the hotel to hang out, and we did that for the rest of the night. We watched the first part of the Grammys, while eating pizza and sushi and talking to friends. It was fun.
   The next day was a school day, but I had to miss it. In the morning, my mom and I got up early to go to the Literature Awards Ceremony, where they announced the Newbery and other medals.  After that we went to the hotel, and packed and drove home.

I had a really good weekend!

Long Weekend

We had a fun three day weekend! On Thursday, my mom went to Minnesota and my and my dad and sister stayed here. I didn't want to see her go, but I knew she was going to be back on Monday. Then, on Friday, my class went ice skating. That was fun, but my dentist appointment wasn't.
     Anyways, on Saturday me and my dad and sister went to NC to see a band play at a record store. Then, we went to see where I was doing a reading at a bookstore, then a consignment store and a coffee shop. Then we went home, and the next day I stayed at home. I did the same for today, but I;m excited that my mom is coming home. Plus, I've written a lot of my novel and finished a book! I had a pretty good (though not too exciting) weekend!

First Ice Skating Trip and Teeth Drama

Every friday in January in my school, the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade go to the ice skating rink to ice skate. We started yesterday afternoon, and we went for about forty five minutes. I was fairly good, and enjoyed skating with my friends. After that, I went to get four teeth pulled . It hurt, but my dentist said I was one of the bravest clients. Now, I have to get a retainer. It was a long fun, hard day for me, and I'm glad I got through it.

Happy New Years!

                Happy New Years, everyone! I hope you all had a good New Years. Mine was good! Here is what happened:
               On New Years Eve, My family traveled down to a nearby city to a hotel. We brought games and stuff to do, to make our New Years Eve fun. When we got to the hotel, the whole family went swimming. After swimming, we went back to out room to change into clothes, then we went out for Asian food, then for a soda. We got back to the hotel at nine, and then we played a game. We all hung out separately, and watched the Special on TV and counted down till midnight. After that, we all went to sleep. The next day we went home.

Maybe it wasn't the biggest New Years, but I loved it! Happy 2014!
