I did so much in the holiday’s. It was great.

First in the holidays I went out to play with Summer our dog. But she wasn't there. I yelled out “Come here Summer. Where are you?” but my dad got a call from the pound that they caught her and we have to pay $300 to get her back. I asked dad and he brought her back. As soon when we put her on her chain she ran off again. This time we had to pay them $200 to get her back and we didn't get her back!

The next day my dad told me “It’s time to take your dog Tyren for a walk.” I said “Yes”. Then I took my dog for a walk in the reserve round our house. Tyren made a few new friends. All three of them were girls. “Now we have to go home” and we did.

“Yay now it is time to play on my xbox.” but I remembered that my dad bought me a game called “Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare.” You can be a “Pea Shooter Chomper Sunflower Cactus” and on the zombie’s side you can be a “Footsoldier All-star Scientist and Engineer”. You can buy some packs with a piece of a character in it or a whole character in the game.

Spotted Salamanders

A moment in time...

Fun Night.
I heard my Nanny making milkshakes for us.  
I heard Seth putting on Scooby-Dooby-Doo.


I saw the Mystery-van at the start of the movie.
I saw Seth and I drinking milkshakes.


I felt musical in the song.
I felt Seth wobbling the bed.


I wondered if the Mystery-van will fall in the lake.
I wondered if I will finish my milkshake first.
