We went to Billings Farm.  We got to go to the movie theater and beat rugs, wash clothes, write on chalkboards, carry buckets of water with yokes on our shoulders, and play with old toys.  One toy was a board that you sit on and shake it.  We had a lot of fun.

My machine turns everything pink!  You press the on button, and you put things into the right slots.  It turns them into all pink when they are done!

Cat and Mouse in a Haunted House

By Geronimo Stilton

This book is about a scaredy-mouse named Geronimo Stilton.  Geronimo Stilton is in a “haunted house.”  He sees a skeleton in the kitchen and freaks out.  He calls his sister Thea, and she comes to see the ghost that he saw.  Geronimo’s cousin Trap comes, and he brings Geronimo’s favorite nephew Benjamin.  They keep seeing more creepy stuff.

I liked this book because it was funny.  For example, when he jumped and his tail whacked his head.

On winter days I like to sleep.

I also like to leap.

Pink is peppermint ice cream in my birthday cake.

Pink is my soft, cuddly sheets.

Pink is some girls’ favorite color.

Pink is a sunset on a hot summer day.

Pink is happy.

Pink is snapdragons popping in spring.

Pink is my room which I sleep in every night.

Pink is some ladies’ fingernails.

Pink is PINK.

My Genius Hour Project is a slideshow about gymnastics. If you haven’t seen my voki, you should look at it. My project is really fun. I have a bunch of pictures already for my slideshow. I watched a tutorial on how to make a slideshow, and I think I’m ready to start now. I have a workbook on how to make a slideshow, and lots of books on taking good photographs. Watch my blog for more!

On Christmas Eve we go to the Christmas Eve service. Our pastor calls the children to come up. He asks questions and then gives us a lollipop. Then we go home and have pizza for dinner. Mommy puts Charlotte to bed, and we have chocolate fondue. Then we get new pajamas and go to bed.

Hey, I’m a cherry tree.

I have a seat for you.

Come and sit down and stay awhile.

You never know, you might like it.

It could be comfy,

Or it could be rough.

You never know,

But anyway, come and sit awhile

Under my black cherry branches.

I’m a cherry tree, cha cha,

I’m a cherry tree, cha cha.

You’d better come sit under me,

Cha cha cha!
