Christmas


Above this picture is the ginger bread house and it is my initials on it. I love making the ginger bread house every year!
Here is a picture of my sister Annie's front side of the house.
Right here is picture of the front of my side that I did.

Here is a picture when it it lit up, but all the lights you can't see really well! :)

Here is a picture of my Christmas tree when it is not lit up.
This week it is Christmas! :) I am so happy because you get a lot of presents that you really wanted. Tomorrow night is Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve is the night before Christmas.

Also we made a ginger bread house. The ginger bread house had so much candy on it we had to take some of it off. Can't you believe that! Up above the Christmas tree pictures there are 3 pictures of the ginger bread house. The pictures are in large size image so you can see them great. We made the ginger bread house on December 13, 2009. My family and I made it 12 days before Christmas. It took us about 25 minutes to make the ginger bread house. Last year we had to build the ginger bread house and then create it. That house took about two hours to make. It took so long. :( When I built my first ginger bread house I was about 2 1/2 years old.

Also at school ten days ago my class and I made a ginger bread house with Mrs. Levy's first graders. We had a partner which was a first grader of course. I ate my ginger bread house already and it was so good I want to build 25 more of them.

Below here is a song that my school sang for the holiday show!

Christmas is here, Smiles all around All is so bright, All is so bright! Santa will come, To see our town, Into the night, Into the night!

And it’s Christmastime I love, People are smiling,
Holiday singing,

There’s a good feeling



Christmas is here, Gifts all around, All is a=light, All is a-light!
Santa will come, To see our town, Into the night, Into the night!

And it’s Christmastime I love, People are smiling,
Holiday singing,

There’s a good feeling


I love celebrating Christmas! :)

Hanukah

Last Friday Hanukah started. In Hanukah there are eight days. For every day you light one candle. You light it on a menorah. There are nine candle slots. Even know there are eight days in Hanukah you light nine candles. The ninth candle is always lit at night. Usually you get presents on Hanukah but I don't get presents. I only light the menorah. I only get presents for Christmas.

Some people spell Hanukah like Chanukah ( Hanukah). Most people spell it like I do. I love celebrating Hanukah!



Do you celebrate Hanukah?

Do you put candles on a menorah?

My Collection

First of all, I have a collection of hockey pucks. I get them at all of the hockey games I go to. I have about 45 hockey pucks in all. All of my pucks have a different logo on it. ( A logo is a symbol for the team.) Some of the logos have a crown on it. The crown stands for my favorite team called the Los Angeles Kings. Also some of them have a duck on it and a king on it. I love having a collection of hockey pucks.


I get a lot of pucks because all the players know me. They all know me because I go to a lot of games. So far this year I have got about 5 hockey pucks. I have only 5 pucks this year because I have only been to 5 games.

Do you have any hockey pucks?
How many do you have?
Do you like hockey pucks? Tell me why you don't or you do! :)

My Favorite Shows On T.V.

First of all, I like T.V. I have a T.V. in my mom and dad's room, in my guest room, in the den and in the playroom. I mostly watch T.V. in the playroom because that has most of our shows on it. My favorite T.V. show is called Full House.


Full House is a very old show. It started in 1987 and ended in 1996. Can't you believe how old it is. I started watching it in August. My sister Annie got me in to it. At first I didn't like Full House and now I love it. It was really weird.

My second favorite T.V. show is called Phineas and Ferb. It is about Phineas and Ferb making an amazing thing every day on summer vacation.


Last but not least, Wizards Of Waverly Place is my third favorite show. It is about three wizards trying to win this contest to keep there powers. They haven't showed that episode yet on T.V. But I wish they did. That episode is going to be the last episode.


Enjoy the post!

My Thanksgiving Break Off Of School

Last week I had a break off of school for Thanksgiving. I had a lot of free time. Mostly during my free time I played roller hockey in my backyard, watched T.V., play video games and lay on my dogs. My favorite one I did during my Thanksgiving break was playing roller hockey. I played roller hockey about every day of my break. ( Playing roller hockey is my favorite thing to do.) But the first day of my break I went to Disneyland. On Thursday was Thanksgiving. I had a lot of fun because two of my friends came over, and ate a Thanksgiving dinner with me.


On my last two days I went to the ice skating rink with my friend Tanner. I went on Friday and Saturday. On Friday was my first time ice skating, and I only fell one time! I was so amazed. I loved my week for Thanksgiving! :)

Disneyland

These skeletons are eating dinner in the ride Pirates Of The Caribbean. Their arms also moved side to side. It was awesome seeing them move their arms side to side.
This is a fake guy. Doesn't he look real? He collects apples.
This is Small World!
Right when you come in the ride Pirates Of The Caribbean this is the sign that tells you.


I went to Disneyland on November 23, 2009. This is my 9 time going. Second, Disneyland is in Anaheim, California. It was *approximately* 65 miles. It took about 1 hour and 30 minutes. To get back to my house it took about 2 hours and 30 minutes. It took so long to get back to my house because there was so much traffic.

The first ride I went on was Small World. Small World was so cool. It was cool because it was all decorated for Christmas. The ride was 6-7 minutes. It was one of my favorite rides there.

My favorite ride was The Haunted Mansion. The Haunted Mansion was extraordinary. It was extraordinary because you got to go in these chairs that take you all over The Haunted Mansion. In The Haunted Mansion they tell these stories. Today this story was The Nightmare Before Christmas. It was about Halloween and Christmas falling on the same days.


The third ride was The Pirates Of The Caribbean. In that ride there was a lot of hills. Then there were all these skeletons that were dead on the beach. A couple of them had all these jewels on them and one of them had jewels in side there bones! It was awesome!

After the third ride, we went to the parade. The parade was about 25 minutes. My favorite float was the Santa float because you got to see all those gifts.

Then we got some souvenirs I got a bag of holiday candy corn. The candy corn was green, red and white. They were so good! I wish I could go to Disneyland everyday.

Have you ever been to Disneyland?
What rides did you go on?
Did you ever see the parade?
Hope you enjoyed the post!
Would you like to go to Disneyland near Christmas time?

Free time for me

First of all, I love free time, and it is my favorite time of the day. I love free time because you get to do what ever you want. In free time this is what I do: I play roller hockey in my backyard, I play video games, I go on my computer, watch t.v., lay around on the couch, play with my awesome dogs and play with my dad. I mostly watch t.v. and go on my computer.

Before I do free time I have to do homework. My homework usually takes about 15- 20 minutes. Sometimes I do a little of free time first then I do my homework. After I do that I go back to free time.


Usually my free time is all night. After my free time I eat dinner or go to bed. On the weekends my free time is usually all day expect for mine and my sisters sports also for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

What do you do for free time?
Where is your free time?
When is your free time?
When do you end your free time?

I like Hockey

I like hockey. First of all, I play hockey at De Anza Park. The hockey rink is right in the middle of the park. My team is called the Rinkrats. I am number 11. I am number 11 because my favorite player is number 11. His name is Anze Kopitar [ Ange Kopitar].


So far I have 1 goal 3 assists and that is a total of 4 points. My team has won 3 games and lost 1 game. We lost the game to the Phantoms. ( The Phantoms are the best team in the division I play in.) The score was 10- 5. It was not a good game. This Saturday, I have a game against the Sharks. The Sharks are tied in the same place my team is in. The Sharks and my team are tied for third place. I think that is pretty good for 4 games.



I also go to NHL games at Staples Center for the Los Angeles Kings. ( They're my favorite team in the NHL.) My favorite player in the NHL is named Anze Kopitar (Ange Kopitar). The Kings colors are purple, black, white and silver.



What do you do for sports?

The Hockey Game At Staples Center

Today, I went to the Kings hockey game at Staples Center. It was so fun! When I was there the score was 3 to 1. The Kings lost the game. I had a delicious pizza from California Pizza Kitchen (CPK).


After the second period, I went to the store at Staples Center. The store was really cool because it has hockey cards, hockey jerseys, hockey pucks and hats for the Kings. But I didn't get anything at the store.



At the game my favorite player was Anze Kopitar. But the player that scored the goal for the Kings was named Jarett Stoll. He did a really hard slapshot and then it went in the goal. Everyone was really happy.

Chumash Museum

Today, I went to a museum. 
The museum was our local California Indian tribe called the Chumash (choo - mash). 
First we visited an ap, the Chumash home.
 
 An ap is a Chumash house made out of tule sticks. We also played this hunting game to help us practice catching rabbits. Instead of using the rabbits, we used wooden sticks. Since it was in the wilderness, we saw about 6 or 7 deer.

Next, we visited the museum. There were  sculptures of men, women and an eagle.

Here is a picture of a golden eagle. It was a powerful bird to the Chumash.


Panther, our guide, said that this is how the  Chumash dressed  for a ceremony.  The used red, white, and black paint on their bodies.

 In his nose is a really skinny bone.

Did you know Native's used to smoke out of a serpentine pipe?





After we saw the aps, we started heading back to the museum area and had lunch. After lunch, we drew on sticks and then after drawing on the sticks, we played a game with them. The game was so awesome. After we played the game, we learned a Chumash song. That was fun, too.

Would you like to go to the Chumash museum?
Also would you like to play all those games, go in the aps and, see all those deer?
