One Sunny Day

 One sunny day, we went for a walk.  And when I say one, I mean ONE.  One beautiful blue sky day in the middle of days and days of rain like only the pacific ocean can bring.  So we out into the wild blue and fought trees...

 and threw rocks in the water...

 and, of course, the boys got soaked!

 It was a wonderful respite from our four walls.  Now, deep breath.  The monsoon continues.



Joe's Art

by Becca

 I am tickled as can be to share Joe's most recent artwork.  He was inspired by the kids art page in the new Highlights magazine.  This one drawing caught his eye because it was done by a 12 year old and i think his competitiveness kicked in because he thought he could do just as well (and he's only 6!).  And I tell you what--he did! 

Cigon Lincoln

by Abby

Were back with Cigon Lincoln.  He was out for a walk own day when he met Zeus!  So Zeus like was talking greek and stuff.  Zeus wouldn't stop talking.  So Cigon Lincoln had no choice but to talk greek back.  So they were having this big conversation when Zeus braut up him knowing more then Cigon Lincoln!  Then Cigon Lincoln said "I bet you don't know your ABC's!"  Zeus got so mad he blasted Cigon Lincoln with his master bolt.  Luckily he saw it coming and took off.  Zeus started chasing him.  Then Cigon Lincoln put on super speed which is 1000 miles per hour.  And he got away yay!

How to make a good cyclops pumpkin

by Abby

First you have to put only one eye (Duh). It has to look a little funny. You have to name it. I named mine Tyson but I'll give you some ideas like Kallob, Seth, Ira, Dan, Backondorf, Jason, Percy, Travis, and Foalan. The rest you do on your own!

Abs Gabs

Thalia is my favorite character off of the Percy Jackson and the Olympian series. I'm like Thalia because she ahs the same punk style as me.

Thalia and I both have freckles.

We both have blue eyes.

We both don't like math.

Thalia and I love to read.

This week was awsome. I finished book five of the Percy Jackson and the Olimpions. It was the last one of the series. They were tight books you should read them. I had a sleep over at my house this weekend with Audrey and Frankie. We also had a soccer game. The Avalanche had 2 and the Hurackanes had 5 points. Now thats an awsome week.

P.S. The Avalanche are us.

We made ramps. I did a flip on one. I went under a fence once. I want to snowboard when I go to Taho.

Lego Star Wars Wii Game Review

by Joe Gardner

What do you like about the Lego Star Wars Wii game? Ben Kanobi forces really fast in the forth episode. you just have to fight a bunch of droids and it's hard to get there. On free play you push 1, 2 to change people. I like to be R2D2. A is fly, he can fly. Jaja Binx can jump really high. Force can build stuff but red force you have to find a bad guy that can force and he can force it and then you can turn back into a good guy.
How do you win? You have to defeat all the levels. There's more than jabba the huts level. I hope after that level is the lava pit where anakin and obi wan fight.
Would you recommend this game to other people? Yeah, get it.
