A Sky Full of Stories

Hi! On No ProblEMMA, there is going to be a new activity going on for a couple of weeks. It is called A Sky Full of Stories. A Sky Full of Stories is a combination of 3 separate stories. Once all 3 stories are made, the three story topics will come together into a bonus story. You’ll have to keep visiting to see what that story will be!

All of the stories have something to do with the sky. For example, it could be about a girl that learns how to fly and goes on a crazy adventure. There are TONS of different topics that can be used in A Sky Full of Stories, so I am going to put up a poll so my visitors can choose the topic!

I hope you enjoy the new activity! Please vote below for the first story topic. To vote, please leave a comment saying which topic you would like to be chosen. Be sure to stop by often to read the stories and vote for new topics!

 

1. A butterfly gets lost in the sun while it is setting. It goes on an adventure to try to get back home.

2. A boy discovers he has the power to fly. He goes on an epic adventure in the sky.

3. The sky turns into a jungle full of animals that live in the clouds.

Blog Pets

Blog Pets

No ProblEMMA is progressing quickly. Many people around the globe, and also some of my classmates, have some virtual pets that go along with their blog. I thought it would be nice for me to have some pets, too. There are  several different pets that you can feed or play with by clicking on them. You can feed all of the fish, the hamster,  and also the dog. The dog’s name is Bailey, the hamster’s name is Lilly, and each fish’s name starts with an “A” : Albert, Allison, Angel, Amanda, and Ashley. You can’t really tell the fish apart, but that’s okay! There is a page tab next to the “Home” tab under my header that says “Blog Pets”. You can access all of the pets there, and also on this blog post. All of the pets love attention, so be sure to come by often! Enjoy!

Road Trip!

Last April vacation, I took a road trip to Florida. We were gone from a Saturday to a Sunday. The drive took 27 hours just to get there, so it was about 60 hours driving altogether. We drove through 11 states. Those states were: Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, D.C., Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.

Driving there was so much fun! On the trip there was: My mom, my brother, Alyxandra H. Mrs. H., and me. We were listening to music the whole time. We played games like the License Plate game, the 50 States game, 20 Questions, and many other games. Every once in a while we would stop for a snack, then continue on our way. Alyxandra and I were having a blast! We were watching the people that went by, and when they looked, I would wave to them. Alyxandra usually made goofy faces at them :D

When we finally got there, it was about 11:00 p.m. We unpacked everything we would need for the night, such as a toothbrush, and our pillows and pajamas. We were staying at a beautiful house. It was in a quiet neighborhood, and had an awesome view of a nice pond. It even had it’s very own pool on the back porch!

We went to the bench every single day except for that Thursday. The beach was gorgeous. It had a tram that we road on, and it had a nice little boardwalk on the way down. The sand was so soft and white that it didn’t even seem real. The water was the warmest ocean water I have ever felt in my whole life. It was perfect. You never got cold. The funniest thing happened one day while we were all in the water. We were all swimming in the water, just splashing around. All of a sudden, we started to see a bunch of fish. Apparently Mrs. H. was right in the middle of a giant school of fish! She got whacked in the back of the head by one fish, then when she turned around to see what happened, she got slapped in the face by another fish! It was SO funny!

The zoo was spectacular. There was almost every animal you could imagine; there were parrots, zebras, lions, giraffes, antelopes, monkeys, alligators, and tons more! We watched a cool show in a tent that had an animal trainer that was showing us a bunch of animals. After the show, we ate lunch under a tent. It was so cool, because some of the meals came with little carrying cases shaped as either a monkey or a bear.

Florida was awesome. Just writing this post made me want to go back! It is so nice there that you never want to leave (that’s just my opinion). I am so glad I got to go, and I hope someday I can go to Florida again (but this time I’m flying :) )!

 

 

 

** HAVE YOU EVER BEEN ON A LONG ROAD TRIP? **

** IF YES, WHERE DID YOU GO, AND WHAT WAS IT LIKE? **

My Farm Life

Where I live there are farms everywhere. All around my town there are sheep farms, cow farms, horse farms, and just plain old farms! I wouldn’t really say that my house is a real farm, but it has everything that would be at a farm.

My house has a big, old barn right in the middle of my yard. There is a field next door that is perfect for cows or horses. I have fencing everywhere, and there is a ton of yard area. I would say my house is a farm, because I have dogs, horses, rabbits, and sometimes there are cows next door.

My best friend for all time, Allison, has a horse farm, too! She has 13 horses there. On some days in the summer I am out in the barn all day. I ride there when there is time, and I have a blast! They have a huge field in the back, and we sometimes go out there and play on the piles of dirt.

I love being around farms, even though sometimes it gets really boring, because I don’t get out much :) Almost none of my friends in my grade live at farms, but there are tons of people in the school that do. My house/farm is great, and I love every second of it!

Spelling Bee

My school recently had a 4th, 5th, and 6th grade spelling bee. Ten students from each grade competed to make it in the top ten. The ten finalists would compete for the 3rd place, 2nd place, and 1st place spots. The round would be over once everybody went. If somebody got the word wrong, then they would be out. The remaining spellers would keep going forward until the final three spots were determined.

The ten finalists for 5th grade were: Nick, Mike, Arri, Jackie, Amanda, Collin, Emily, Alison, Trey, and Tristan. The 3rd place winner for the 5th grade spelling bee was Trey. The 2nd place winner was Emily. The 1st place winner for the 5th grade spelling bee was Alison. All of the spellers did a great job, and should be proud even if they didn’t make it to the final three!

The ten finalists for 6th grade were: Kristin, Faith, Kirstyn, Anthony, Phil, me, Jenny, Alyxandra, Rachele, Ed, and Alyssa (but Alyssa and Ed couldn’t make it, so there were only 9) The 3rd place winner for the 6th grade spelling bee was me. The 2nd place winner was Alyxandra. The 1st place winner for the 6th grade spelling bee was Faith. Alyxandra and Faith broke the school record for the most rounds taken to find the 2nd and 1st place winners: 35 rounds! Everybody did an amazing job, and they, too, should be very proud of making it into the top ten. Nice job everybody!

My Little Life

The number of people that commented on my last post was overwhelming. I was overpowered with happiness when I saw the number of comments I had from just one night. I decided it would be nice to make a little video with some pictures of me in it, since so many people have been asking me to.

My life is wonderful. I have everything I could wish for; I have a wonderful brother, I have a mom and a dad, and I have a ton of pets. I have the best friends in the world, and I go to a wonderful school. My life is full of happiness, and that is all I could ever hope for.

I am a bookworm. I love to read books, magazines, and even some newspaper articles. Sometimes I can get really into a book and not know what is going on around me, but sometimes I get so bored that my thoughts start to wander. My favorite place to read is in my bed, surrounded by the hundreds of stuffed animals that I have. I have never cried reading a book before, but I have been very close.

 

I made a little video that has some pictures of my brother and I in it. The pictures were taken a long time ago, so I look a little different than the way I do now. Enjoy!

My Pets Are My Life

There are many things in my life that I can’t live without. I am nothing without my pets. They are always there for me. Animals bring something special into your life that can’t be described. They are always there for you, no matter what happens.

My pets are my family. I don’t even consider them to be animals. I consider them as humans. They have emotions and personalities like we do, and nothing can ever change that. If you look into their eyes, it seems as if they are speaking to you. Each animal loves somebody ( or something ) for their own special reason. People are the same way.

I love each animal I own for their own special reason. I love my dog Tildy because she seems to listen to you. She gives me hugs ( literally ), and she loves to snuggle. I love my other dog Finn because he is always there for me. He loves to play, and he is the only animal I have that sits in my lap. I love my horse Maggie because she is the sweetest thing in the world. She loves it when I rub her face, and she loves to walk around with me. I love my other horse Annie because she has her own little way of showing her affection. Sometimes she snuggles up next to me, but other times she she tries to push me away (literally).

I would love to hear from you, so please leave a comment! Click below to see a video of my pets:
