Ocean city 2010

In August 2nd 2010 me and my family went to Ocean city for 4 days. We stayed at Burgundy Inn hotel again. When we got there My family, Granny, Papa, and my 8 year old end of the year second grader cousin Kurt went to get pizza for lunch. Man, those pizzas are yummmmmm-y! Then after that we went to the ocean. There was huge waves and 1 or 2 tidal waves. A couple of them knocked me down. We stayed there untill it was time to go to dinner. We went to Haws and I brought my DS with me. Me and Kurt played "Indianapolis 400". I got Grilled cheese for dinner and then we went to Jolly Rodger. When me and Kurt played on the ballons both of us spinned the thing fast. I said, "Whoo-wee, I don't think this could be any better!"We rode alot more rides too. The next morning we ate breakfast and then went to the ocean. With the waves were just about the same thing. After that we went to eat lunch and then the Burgundy Inn pool. Me Kurt and Cooper got ocean animal rafts. Me and Cooper got sharks and Kurt got a dolphin. In the pool Kurt and Cooper played a game together. I was their lawyer. Kurt wanted to be pousinus and get a shield and stuff like that. But Cooper wanted Fire Breath and his own duengon and all. We ate dinner at Crab Alley. At Jolly Rodger we went to speedworld to ride the go karts. Dad and I raced at a track called Thick Tunnel Raceway and we won. I think he mighta lapped a few. Then we raced at Lemans Speedway. Then we went to Candy Kitchen to get ice cream and I also got a Webkinz and Cooper got like 50 sillybandz. The next morning, we went to the ocean and jet ski at Kurt's house. Yeah. Kurt lives in Ocean city. We went to eat dinner at the Dough Roller. We went on the board walk to ride on rides. We went on a 10 minute ride Haunted House I saw a guy that got flushed down the toilet with his hands sticking out. Then I got Mint ice cream at Kohr Brothers. The next day, we stayed untill about three o'clock in the afternoon. On the way home, we bought a hermit crab named Ig. We already also have two other hermit crabs-Zachary and Daniel. We also had about fifteen fish but they died. Our hermit crab, Katie, the only girl hermit crab also died.

Level 2 swimming lessons at Martin K. Snook pool 2010

In late July 2010 I had swimming lessons at Martin K. Snook pool. I was in level 2. My teachers were Mrs. Linsey and Mrs. Brooke. I had lots of fun. Me and Cooper's shallow end(Cooper is in level 1 and Parker is in 3-year old level)are 3 foot 6. Parker's shallow is two feet. Y'wanna know why I know that? Because on the sides of the pool it says how deep it is. We work on our front glides and back glides, diving for rings...and other stuff too. We go to deep end where it's ten foot six and do seeded dives and safety jumps. I love the diving board thats twelve feet which is the deepest the pool gets. I like the water slide too. The water slide is four foot four. When I got my certicafate I saw I passed Level 2. Cooper passed level one and Parker is moving on to Coop's class. We ALL had fun. PS the only person in my class that I knew was Charlie.

Baltimore science center

It was lots of fun when we went to the Baltimore science center. First we went to eat our lunch. I forget what it was called but I got pepperoni pizza at a pretty cheep price. I had regular milk to drink. And so then we went to Level 2. We saw real clouds up close. It was like air. I could'nt feel it either. We walked twenty feet forwards to play tug of war. The first two times just only Parker. He's only three years old but man, he... Strong. Powerful. Good. Can really pull. I'm very strong too. But both times I barely even won. Then I played Cooper twice. Beat him once, he beat me once. Then I played against Parker and Dad. Dad is super duper, DUPER strong. But... I beat em'. Then Iplayed Dad and had it a half a centermeter to my side for the win but Dad pulled it back and I lost. I even went over to see how a earthquake formed. Later we went up another story, there is five story's I think. But we played Solar system jeopordy and watched a video on the moon. We did lots of other stuff too but it probaly would be a lot to much to put it all on this post.

Recap: Redskins vs Titans

At the beggining of the Titans first drive, the Redskins defense held strong, forcing a fumble and recovering it. Although, on Tennesee's next drive they scored a touchdown. But Washington tied the game up 7-7 with a touchdown of their own. The score was 10-7 Redskins at halftime. Donavan McNabb had passed for 171 passing yards by the time. With the score all tied 16-16, Redskins kicker #4 Graham Gano lined up for a 47 yard field goal on the last play, but the goal was no good, so they went into overtime. Tennesee won the coin toss, but cornerback #23 Deangalo Hall intercepted a pass, leading the Redskins to another field goal, this time from 48 yards. "Yyyyaaaaa!'" It was good! 5-5 Washington Redskins 19 6-4 Tennesee Titans 16.
