The Campout-part I

Here's a story I wrote for school. I will finish it later.

Last year my father, mother, brother, and I went camping at a beautiful campsite we had never been to before. The first day we got there it was late at night, so we set up our tents and went to sleep. We woke up the next morning to the sound of thunder roaring, only a small distance away. I got out of the tent I was sharing with my mom and looked around. The sun was shining through the dark green leaves of the trees, but I could see the clouds coming up from the opposite direction. I could feel the cool wind blowing through my hair as I sniffed the beautiful pine scent from the forest. I heard the animals rushing to their homes, trying to get safe before the rain started. I turned on our portable grill, so that we could make pancakes for breakfast. I could feel the mist from the storm already on its way.
After breakfast we turned on the radio that the park ranger set out at every campsite. We turned the campsites station. The park ranger said that everyone in groups A and B would get wet from the storm, but everyone in the campsites C and D would get to stay dry. We were camping in group C so we knew we could stay out all day, unless the storm started moving closer to us. So after a little bit of thought my family and I decided to go on a hike. We packed up a snack for later, swim suits-for the stream where we could go swimming, sunglasses, water bottles, and rain jackets-just in case.

Scaredy-cat

Do you get scared easily? I used to. I would stay up over half the night in my bed trying to figure out which monster was going to come up from under my bed or which snake is going to crawl through my window-even though it was closed and locked! And let me tell you something. My imagination can go pretty wild, especially when I'm thinking about snakes! I was never allowed to watch scary movies, or even the news to close to my bedtime. I would be up all night, scared. Now I've grown out of it. I watch a lot of things before bedtime now. It might just be a little kid thing. I know my little cousins are still scared at night. Maybe they'll grow out of it soon, too.

My Six Word Life!

Here's a six word memoir that sums up my life.....

I like to sing and act!

I've always loved acting and singing. I got a Kerioke machine for Christmas one year and I still use it and love it very much. I started acting five years ago at the age of six. I've gotten a lot better and have recently been in the play Annie in the part of Molly. It was a lot of fun!

Ready for a Pet?

You may know that pets require a lot of care and love. If you are considering getting a pet that requires a lot of attention, you may want to think about if you will be able to spend a lot of time with your pet. If you work at an office all day, and are not home very much you might want to think about waiting until you are not so busy to get a pet. If you want a puppy or a kitten you will want to be sure you can spend a lot of time with it. It is good to have a bond with your pet. You will want to be sure that you are ready for one, and not jump to the conclusion to get one just because it is cute.

Time for Braces!

We went to the dentist and the dentist told me that I needed braces. I told my mom. She hit the roof! She told me that we don’t have enough money for braces. We don’t have dental insurance or health insurance. That’s when my mom found out about Ameriplan.

Ameriplan is not like other insurance companies. They will make sure you can afford what you need, when you need it! That’s why my mom decided to look further into the company. She thought it would be good to have dental coverage for my braces. She found out that for a low monthly fee she could get the health benefits we need to help cover the cost of my braces.
