Turning 10!!

I am turning 10 in 3 days!! I am so excited!! I will post more later!!!

My favorite place to read

This is a project for school.

I like to read outside, in the library, and my mom's room. Outside is nice and quiet. My two loud sisters don't bug me. I like the summer breeze and the sunlight on my book. Outside is wonderful because nobody screams. It is beautiful outside all of the time.

I like to read at the library because I feel like a princess because all the books in a really big library are like my castle. And I find all kinds of books in my castle.

I like reading in my mom's room because it is kind of quiet. And i get to be with my mom, she works in there. It is fun reading in all my different places.

I got my hair cut!!

I really wanted a mohawk but only BOYS can have mohawks at school, so I got it cut short and then the lady styled it kind of like a mohawk.

I LOVE IT! 

Grant's Farm

Today we went to Grant's Farm. It was fun.

A president used to live here.

We took a tram ride.







The donkey almost touched me.







My mom made my ride the carousel.
 


Then we got to feed the goats! 





This tan goat would not stop following me.

Cicada Crazy!!

My bike got a flat tire today. I was riding it at the park with my mom and sisters and the back tire made a hissing noise. I thought it was my mom's bike and I freaked out because she just got it yesterday, but no, it was my bike. :( I'm really sad because I have no clue when we can get a new tire. But my little sister let me ride her bike for a little bit and I even got to ride my mom's bike. Then I went to play on the swings. It was still a fun day even though it was 100 degrees outside. My mom put sunscreen on us before we went to ride bikes. I'm glad because getting sunburn is no fun.

We took pictures of cicadas this evening. My sister Gracelynn screamed and ran away every time one came near her. My sister Sapphire caught them in her net. I just watched mom and helped her take pictures.

My mom holding a cicada. They kept flying and landing on her.

This is what the cicadas leave behind.

My moms new bike.

A picture I took.

And I am working on a new song to sign for you guys. I will give you a hint. It is patriotic. A lot of people have told my mom that I spelled the word sign wrong. I didn't. I am not singing I am signing. :) There will be a post coming soon about a big giveaway I am doing. Please read my blog then to find out about it.

Spaghetti Casserole Recipe

Spaghetti casserole is really easy to make. It's one of the first things I learned how to cook. Here is the recipe.

First you will need to get spaghetti noodles, sauce, shredded cheese, and parmesan cheese. You can also use mushrooms, tomatoes, or anything else you normally would put in the spaghetti.

Make the noodles like you normally would with spaghetti. We break ours in half because it's easier to eat that way. Preheat your oven to 400*F.

Testing to see if the noodles are done - I throw one on the cabinet and if it sticks, it is done. If it isn't done, it will bounce off. That is something my Mammie taught me.

Drain the noodles. Be careful, the steam is hot.

Stir in the spaghetti sauce.

Spray a casserole pan with non stick cooking spray. Pour 1/3 of the spaghetti mixture into the pan.

Add 1/3 of the cheese, then another 1/3 of the spaghetti, and alternate until you are out of spaghetti and the cheese is still on top.

I don't really like pictures being taken of ME when I cook.

Top with parmesan cheese and bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is nice and bubbly on top.

This is what it will look like when it is done.

Don't forget the garlic bread! We use english muffins with spray butter and garlic salt.

And I took these pictures:

Spaghetti casserole is really delicious, especially with garlic bread. What is your favorite pasta dish?

Our First Summer Trip

My mom Sadie, her friend Jessica from Kentucky, my mom Rachel, my sister Gracelynn and I went to Six Flags! Going there was fun we rode the Batman, a little boat that rocks back and forth, and Thunder River. My mom, Jess, and Rachel rode the Mr. Freeze. On the Thunder River we all got soaking wet and Jessica's daughter cried a lot, but all the rides I rode were awesome!  The best was Thunder River and the Batman. It was great!

We have season passes for the first time ever so we will be going a LOT this summer. I'm excited and can't wait to spend time with my family having fun!

Summer School

I am going to be in summer school. It starts a few days after school is over and lasts until June 30th. The classes I am going to be in are    hip-hop,creative writing, math ,and art class. I love all my classes especially creative hand writing and art . 


I love to draw in my notebook.I draw trees and lots of other stuff too. What I love drawing is weeping willows and trees that have lost their leaves.I love to write in my notebook too. I like just writing stuff down . I write all kinds of stuff down in my notebook like what I want for my birthday and what I want for Christmas too. 


The reason I wanted to do hip-hop is because I like to dance .I like to dance with my sister Gracelynn .We dance with each other all the time . She's a great dancer. I love math but I am bad at it. With adding subtracting and fractions I am good at but dividing and multiplying I am bad at . But I try my hardest at them all .


My mom Rachel and I love art. Sometimes I spray paint with her it.Spray painting is so much fun! That is why I like art. You can see her space painting on You Tube. Just click here.

I am re-doing my blog because I have not posted in a really long time.

I tried out for the talent show but did not make it. This is the song I chose to sign.

What do you think of it? What should my next song be?
