Donuts After Swim
Today after my swim practice I went to get donuts with my friend Ruth and her family for National Donut Day. I got a Vanilla Long John and some donut holes. I bought 12 but they gave me 13! I sadly dropped one on the ground though. My friend Ruth got a Vanilla Iced Cinnamon Roll. We bought the donuts from Donut Panic, the new donut shop in Columbia. They built it where the old Pizza Hut was. We then walked over to Dairy Queen and ate our donuts on the patio outside of an ice cream shop! We did not get ice cream though. It was so fun to…

Zoo Field Trip
It is almost the end of my fifth grade school year and my school is taking a trip to the St. Louis Zoo. I was grouped with my friends, Harper, Maddie, Ella, Clara, and Emily. Clara’s mom was our chaperone. We saw every animal possible. Although the new baby elephant was unable to be seen by the public because of a recent storm that damaged its enclosure, we had the best time. We did get to see new poplar bear twins that just moved to the zoo. For lunch, I bought a hotdog from a restaurant at the zoo. However it did not taste the best. After lunch, we went…

First Day Of Middle School
My first day of middle school was on August 15. My homeroom teacher’s name is Mrs. R. This is her first year teaching 5th grade. She taught 7th grade in past years. Middle school is so different than 4th grade. I can’t believe that I switch classes. My first favorite class is art. My second favorite class is social studies. I am still trying to get used to my new locker. Last year it was only a half locker. This year I get a full locker and it has a lock. I am excited for this new school year.

Leprechauns
I think leprechauns are tricky. My leprechaun is probably the trickiest. He turned my toilet green! He also put sticky notes everywhere. They usually come when you think they are not coming. Leprechauns are mischievous.

Penguins for a Pet
A penguin would be a good pet because they’re funny, cute and like to explore. I think penguins are funny because they peck at things and ork. You never know what they are going to do. Penguins are cute because they waddle and look adorable. They look like they are wearing a tuxedo coat. Penguins are curious so they like to explore. To them a house is like an undiscovered two story land. A penguin would be a great pet.

Fall Farm Party
I was invited to a Fall party, so I went. I was the first kid there, so I jumped on hay bales with my Dad. It was a blast. My Dad and I went four wheel riding while my mom talked. I may have taken a few corn stalks down with my four wheeler. When I got back there where kids! Some of the kids, I already knew. Max and Maria are brother and sisters and the farm belongs to their family. I also got to pet horses with my Mom and Dad. I went on a hay ride. It stopped on the trail to get juice and stopped at…

HALLOWEEN 2021
I had a blast this Halloween. I went to my friends house. My friends name is Ella. Ella invited me and my other friend named Ruby. This Halloween, I was a werewolf. Ella and Ruby were both haunted cheerleaders. At my friends house I devoured hot cocoa and lots of candy. I also ate a cupcake. One of the houses was super spooky. Trick or treating with my friends is the best.
