Homeschooling

Sorry I haven't written in a while. I've either been to busy or not wanting to write. Today I am going to talk about why I like homeschooling. the first reason is I make lots of new friends who aren't in school and have more time to play with them. The next is I have more time to do extra activities like Soccer and 4H. Another is that the school days aren't (usually) as long. Another is that I only have to do schoolwork that isn't what I need like I am a higher level on Math, but not as high on writing. Mostly it has to do with how much time I have. But maybe my favorite part is, no homework!

Busy day!

Today was a very busy day for my family. First we went to church and it was my friend Michael Shilling's birthday! Hooray! MY family and I went home and had bagel pizzas for lunch while watching the Packers vs. Tigers game on TV. Then my mom went into Aldi and bought things while my Dad took us kids to get Jr. Frostys at Wendys. Then we went into Staples and bought DVD discs for copying our home videos onto. Next we went to the library and listened to a young man named Phillip DuPont play the piano. After that we went to Trinity Church to see their nativity set-up. Then we went to Meijer and my brother and I bought Pokemon cards. He also bought a stuffed animal Wobbufet. I got Torterra Lv. X in my cards!

Vacations

I love taking vacations. I don't usually go very far away, sometimes into Michigan or Indiana, but once I went to South Dakota and saw Mount Rushmore. What is everyone's favorite vacation that they have ever gone on? And what is the farthest away you have ever been from your home? Anyone can answer this question, but you don't have to.

Christmas traditions

Christmas is one of the busiest times of year for me, so I couldn't write.  I am going to write about my Christmas traditions.  On Christmas eve, we go to my aunt Becky's and have lunch there.  On Christmas day, we read the Christmas story from both Matthew and Luke.  We also go to my Grandma's house and open presents there.  We stay there the entire day.  Our family also opens presents from each other.  The next day(today)we go to Maumee Bay State Park for 3 days with my Dad's family.  

Christmas lights

It's funny how my blog is called My Life, and yet I don't write about my life! That starts now. I like having a contest in my mind about the best light arrangements in our neighborhood when my mom and dad take us out to look at lights. I have to say that the one on Charles street, even though it is not near my home, was the best because it had lights that danced to the music of a certain music station! My dad's friend's house got 2nd place, because it had lots of figures with lights on them. I love looking at Christmas lights, don't you?

Christmas

Sorry I haven't written in such a long time. I've been busy, especially with lots of activities. My question today is: Is Christmas the time Jesus was born, or is it just when you get presents? Is Christmas an important holiday in your life, or is it just too much work? Everybody who reads this, please comment. I would really like to know your opinion!

What is a sport?

Lots of people think some things aren't sports, say golf. My view on this is that anything that there is competition in is a sport. Of course, that would make video games a sport. I would like to ask readers what they think a sport is. Please comment on this and I will also have a survey.
