POOL PARTY!

    Yesterday I went to a pool party for my friend's birthday party. Here is a very exciting part: I went off the high dive about 25 ft high if you measured it from the bottom of the pool. The water was exactly 13 ft deep. I jumped off it backwards and did a flip then landed smack on the water. Some other parts at the park were these little lily pads floating on the water. You have to get across them to the other side. There are some ropes about 4 ft above the lily pads to hold on to. I just used the ropes like monkey bars. I didn't even use the lily pads. There is also this HUGE water slide. Kamille (my friend, the birthday girl) and I went down the slide a lot. It was so much fun. I went on the lazy river probably about 1000000000000000,000000000000000 times. It was just all so much fun! Thank you, Kamille!

                        That was my update that I just had to post.
                    

I wish it would snow! (My wish came true)

     Leah, Lauren, and I have all been wishing it would snow. Our wish came true. Today it finally snowed. I wish it would snow so much it went up to my knees. I also wish mom would let us play in the snow.We're stuck in the house right now. Austin is sleeping, Mom is blow drying her hair, Dad, Leah, and Lauren are doing yoga on Wii Fit Plus (it's actually a very good way to exercise), and I'm posting this. I wish we could go out to eat or something like that but the problem is that we're trying to eat healthy. (I hope I can convince Dad to take me to Taco Bell or Del Taco.) I'm getting bored here at the house. Bye-Bye.

Mr.Peeps

In 2008, my mom and dad sent a letter to the North Pole asking if we could have one of Santa Clause's elves to come to our house to watch us in person and he's come every year since. He came today. His name is Mr.Peeps and he's about 8 inches to a foot long. He hides somewhere different every night. Sometimes when we aren't looking, he moves. If you're coming to our house from any time between about the day after Thanksgiving to Christmas day, you should remember this: IF YOU TOUCH HIM SOME OF HIS MAGIC WILL GO AWAY. Then he wouldn't be able to fly around and report to Santa Clause. That would be bad. Once we found him on our fan. Then we were about to turn the fan on but then we noticed that he was on it. I think it is always fun when he is here. I'll be back soon!

Vacation not very far away

First I'm going to start with my vacation. My vacation was great! Although I was the only one (in the Jess and Jen family) that went. You're probably going to want to know where I went, who I went with,when, and why I went on a 3/2 person vacation. Okay, but we have to go in a special order.
1.why
2.with who
3.where
4.when
5.other
So why? Because I turned eight and I got baptized. With who? Well, my Grandma Ellett and I were the only ones for the first part of it and then my Aunt Katie came after Young Womens.(witch wasn't untill 8:30 or so)
Where? Downtown, all over it. When? The day before my birthday.Other. First we went to the Beehive house and we went to the Lion house to go to the bathroom. I truly don't know what order we went in. Anyways we also went to The Church Office Building,and the Church History Museum, the Salt Lake City Temple, and the Joseph Smith Memorial building.We saw two Minerva paintings. I had so much FUN!

Talent Show? Spelling Bee?

Yesterday we had a two-class Talent Show. I played a song on the piano. I have no idea what the title is. Here's the big part! Today we had a 2nd Grade Spelling Bee. I WON! Me and my friend Trevor were the last two up there. My teacher said that we are very good when it comes to spelling. I got a word right so then Trevor got alphabet for his word. He didn't spell it right. He spelled it: a-l-p-h-a-e-t. Can you figure out what's wrong? I spelled it:a-l-p-h-a-b-e-t. It's the b he forgot. I got a king sized TWIX. I was SO excited. We were so good the teachers had to move to a harder book. Bye!

Dollar Tree Visit

Dad said I needed to catch up on writing on here. I thought well, some people have a YEAR to catch up on their blogs. So, I thought I'd catch up. Here we go! We went to the Dollar Tree on Thursday, Jan. 27th. I got a ball with a tiger on it and I named him Tigey. (Ti-g-ee) Leah got a real, pink, hope you're ready for it! WHOOPEE CUSHION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Recital!

Today when my dad was making a post on his blog, (about MY recital) he said that I should post on my blog. So here I am. My song was Santa Claus is comin' to town. Jessica Gray's song was Frosty the snowman and Maddie McEwan's song was Jingle bell rock. If you know where my mom and dad's blog is, you can see me play my song.
