Christmas Morning

On Christmas morning, we got up to go to the Christmas tree to look for gifts and Santa surprises. There were so many gifts to open including a new golf bag with golf clubs for my brother and I. We had our grandparents from Ocala, Florida stay for Christmas and in a couple hours New Years. My brothers favorite gift was a 55 to 250 mm zoom lens. Mine was a Lego airplane that even had the grounds crew. It was awesome!

Going To Maui



About three years ago my family and I went to Maui, Hawaii for a vacation. We had so much fun. We even saw whales jump out of the water. There was a pizza place called The Best Pizza in Maui. It is delicious. We went snorkeling. The flight was 9 and 1/2 hours long and the food was bad though. It still was awesome!


Going To San Fran


In 2000, my family and I went to San Fransisco for my aunts wedding. We had so much fun because we got to go on boat rides and go across the Golden Gate Bridge along with the trolley rides to the outer suburbs of the city. the fun part was eating the food. OH the food was delicious. There was good seafood and grill restaurants everywhere you look. San Fransisco is Awesome!

New York Earns Me

About two years ago, My brother was going to Mackinac Island for a fourth grade field trip. I was only in second grade so I was kind of jealous. But one early morning, the day of Luke's trip, my parents woke me up at four o' clock. And I remember saying, ''school already!'' My dad said, ''no, you and I are going to Manhattan in New York!'' It was a total surprise! The flight to New York was two hours long. When we landed in LaGuardia airport in New York we headed strait to our hotel. When my brother found out I was going to Manhattan, he was jealous. But my mom went with my brother to Mackinac Island. We had so much fun together. We even went to the Empire State building and saw the American Idol Finale while eating pizza in our hotel room! It was the best vacation ever

Seymour Wins The Election

On November 4, 2008, Seymour won the election with 387 electoral votes to John MC Cain and Barrack Obama. In her words she says ''We will work on friendship and Health Care. We are trying to start a new leaf in partnership and equality. And I hope we can be strong and Patient because the cure is coming. We will live a fun and happy life if we can look to the future. And As I stand here today I will just say that this madness is over!'' I think Seymour has made history.


Our Dog Peyton


I have a new exiting friend named Peyton who is a golden retriever. She is in an organization called paws with a cause which is a program that helps disabled peaple. She got her name from the football player Peyton Manning. She is only 11 months old. But we need to turn her loose, in March. But we still have good news, she is taking off a new program which you dont need to train her. She will work with kids who have Autisum. She just needs to be someone's best friend and get attentionn. She is so sweet.
