It's almost summer! There's 13 days left of school... school gets out on June 6th for us! We have some fun summer plans, including a huge vacation to SPAIN, and all-summer long acting camp on the weekdays, and Camp Wapsie again!
Since our last post, we've been SUPER busy! I had a TON of soccer games, we won three! In the fall, we didn't score a single goal in the fall season, but in the spring season we scored so many! I even scored one! Yesterday, we went against a team that we lost 12-0 in the fall, but yesterday we lost 2-1, and we were missing one of our best players, too!
On April 22, Evaline, mom, and I got hair appointments. I got
bangs!
On April 29th, my NHD team went to Des Moines! NHD stands for
National History Day, and it's where you research a top that is
at least 20 years old. I did Anne Boleyn and the Church of
England. If you make it to state, then you compete in state, and if
you win that, then you go to Nationals. Last year, Evaline made it to
Nationals. There is 3 divisions: Youth (what I was in), Junior (middle school),
and senior (high school). In both senior and junior, it is competitive and you can
get real awards for your work, but in youth, it's not competitive,
and you only get a participation award. NHD is a P.A.C.T (other
districts have another name for it, I know most call it T.A.G), so you
do have to qualify for it!
My NHD group was the best!
Getting my participation medal
We took some people to and from the place, and we had a "car party"
With my mom working at my school, in the mornings I usually go outside
to hang out with my friends, but one rainy morning, I decided to write
the current "slang" that the boys in
my grade use on my mom's whiteboard.
And, yesterday, I had Family Fun Night at my school! I went with
some of my friends, and we got Kona Ice. Me and two other friends got matching
koala donut temporary tattoos and me and four other friends got
matching unicorn face paint.
