Being With Family Is The Best

     Tomorrow is the day that i’ve been waiting for school is out and summer has begun and the vacations have started let the fun begin.

       “Beep,Beep “,screeched the alarm clock on the side of my bed.I hit the snooze button and as soon as I did it I heard “Sierra, hurry up if we’re going to make it before lunch we have to get a move on”,Dad yelled.I got dressed as fast as I could so I could finish my eggs and bacon before my dad yells at me again to hurry up . After packing my stuff I hauled it into the bed of the truck .It was close 8:00 when we got the trailer hooked up and ready to go.

      We drove for a about 2 hours and  we set up camp I looked at the lake view from our campsite it was a beautiful day for fishing and I had the whole lake to do it on. As I walked around the place to get to know it better and by the time I was back at camp lunch was cooked. We had cooked hot dogs,baked beans,and marshmallows for dessert. When I was done I threw my napkin away and went outside with my dad to help him fix the rods up and get to the lake.

      When we got to the lake It was peaceful and so quiet that you could hear a pin drop it was truly a perfect weather day.I got my pole got a worm on it and I threw it out waiting and watching. Time passed and  I was just about to give up until my luck change in about the 13th cast I caught 3 big Catfish 3 Brim and a Rainbow Fish.That day I caught seven fish in 30 minutes that’s my record.

       I spent three days with my dad and got to know him closer.I’m glad that I had time with him because I don’t get to spend time with him as much as I use to because of his work. I realized that a family is the best is the best thing that you could have .

Have you ever thought

Have you ever thought  about your favorite sense mine is hearing. This makes my life better because i can listen to the teacher and hear her talking to me. Plus i can listen to my favorite music and video with no problem at all. I can hear my mom when she tells me its time for bed.

But if my hearing was to be taken away i wouldn’t be able to ride a bike because i couldn’t hear the car horn and i can get hurt. I couldn’t help my friend on her homework when she has a question. Plus couldn’t hear the quiet purr of my cat that helps me do my homework because it clams me. I couldn’t listen to the news and know what is going on around the world. Don’t judge a book by its cover.

The Survivor

My grandma was born on February 2, 1939.She lived in a little house in White Oak,TX.The White Oak High School back then was the k-6 building.She graduated in the 50’s.When she graduated and got older she  got married and had 3 children.

    Two years ago my grandma tripped over a thin cord.She was walking on uneven ground and she didn’t see it and she fell.She wined up in the hospital she had a fractured hip and she had to have a hip replacement and a Metal rod were here hip and her knee was connected.But when she was in recovery her life changed she started to think about others that are like her with a replacement.

        While in rehab she started with the easy stuff like using her hands to pedal  like on a bicycle, to get your strength back in your arms.Then it would get harder and harder and finally after five weeks in rehab, she thought of an idea to help people do their exercises and get a faster recovery so she started to help.

        After a few days of helping people to get back on the road to recovery she headed home,but not knowing what would happen next. A year later had breast cancer and she started to have treatments and was fighting hard and made it through the challenges. After the fifth treatment they found a way to get rid of it.

        Even though hard challenges await for her she will still get up and fight.Today she is a two year  cancer survivor. Life is precious, respect it and you will enjoy it.

Spring Break Vacation

“This will be the best spring break vacation ever !,”as I thought to myself as I drifted to sleep.”beep,beep,beep “went the alarm. “Smack “ five more minutes please “ I mumbled “ Time to get up it’s a new day “, explained my mom .” A new day “, I yelled. I bounced out of bed got my clothes on and started packing right away . I hopped in the car and was ready to go . I got the dog and we were set to head on the road to Louisiana .

(Two to four hours later ). I woke up to seeing the Welcome to Louisiana sign.” We are here to pick up some information about the places in Louisiana “said my dad.We got some bulletins and then we left to our campsite. When we got there and set up camp I sat on the yellow bench swing and watched the dog bark at strangers and other things.” All done”said dad. “Now it’s time to crash “ I said. Tomorrow will be fun “ thinking in my sleep.

“hey wake up, wake up “ said mom softly .”Time to go to Sci-port”,dad said. When we got there I was so amazed. There was this boat on water that you could paddle. We went to a tour where I saw the Space Shuttle Saturn. “Time to go to the boardwalk and then we will leave.

My mom dragged me over and we took a picture and we got something to eat.”Sierra,it’s time to go my dad. Oh come on I thought.All fun must come to an end.
