BIRTHDAY GIRL

The day before my birthday mom and I went to Costco to pick up things for my special day. Then we got to bed quickly so we would be rested for my birthday. That night was horrible. I just couldn't get to sleep. I was tossing and turning all night, trying to find a good place to sleep till around 10pm. Then I woke up early in the morning. Elle and I talked for a while till mom said if we calmed down and helped her do some of her laundry she would let us finish the movie we were watching, Grace. So we helped mom with her laundry and she let us finish Grace. Then I opened family presents. James gave me some cute melted art earrings. Mom gave me red, white, and blue nail polishes. Elle gave me a bunch of beautiful flower earrings with a cute card.

Calvin gave me cool flip-flops

Dad gave me a cool basketball.

 Mom and Dad gave me a Fitbit. I couldn't wait to start using all those things. After when Dad left we went and got some exercise by going to Heritage park and back. Then we went to the Red Ant Park to play some basketball. I shot a bunch off hoops.

Once we came home mom got us lunch and let us watch Zootopia. Then Sister Thunell came over to take Elle and I out to ice-cream. I got caramel ice-cream. It was so good. It took a long time to get there, but it was worth it. Then we went to the pool. It was so fun! After we quickly came home, showered, and got ready for my party. I helped wash the chairs, set the table, and sweep the leaves off the sidewalk. Then my first friend came. Then everyone started to come. It took forever for Elise to come though. We had pizza and watermelon for dinner.

 We also played a get to know you game. Next we opened presents. Mikayla got me a bird house, some paints, a book called Black Beauty, and some paint brushes.

 Maddi got me starburst minis and a Michels gift card.

 Brooklyn got me a coloring book with some cool pencils.

Elena got me a friendship neckless that was matching with hers and a friendship bracelet kit.

 Elise forgot her present and she said she would bring it later. Ani also called. All my friends were very interested.

  Then we headed off to the park. We had a very fun time playing backwards hide and seek.

 Then we came home to have our bonfire and roast smores.

  I made a pretty good smore.

Dad also told scary stories. Too scary though. Half of my friends ran into the house. Then we came in and we painted nails and watched High school musical. Elise also gave me my present. She got me skittles, bubble yum, and a cute jacket.

 It had been a great birthday!
