Friday my friday school started. I am taking a writing class and helping my mom with a California History class. It went pretty well the first day.
Saturday I woke up at 10:00 and read in bed until 11:30 until my mom asked me to make brownies for Nathan's soccer ice cream social. At 2:00 Nathan had his soccer game until 3:00. He tied, 7-7. My dad asked him, "was it sprite or 7 up? Then Nathan had his ice cream social from 3:00-4:00pm. Then we went home and I had my soccer game at 5:00pm. We won 7-6. I had my ice cream social the week before so we went right home after my game. After that, I packed my clothes because we were leaving to Solvang the next day.
Sunday I went to jr high at 9:30. For those of you who were wondering if I was listening, my jr high pastor talked about how pride is the mother of sin. After Jr. High, I went to the kindergarten class I help out with. After church, we went home, and got everything ready to pack in the car, but then my dad realized the thing that goes on top of the car that we borrowed was missing a bolt, so then we tried to find it but couldn't. We finally left at 3:30-4:00. We arrived at the time share in Solvang about 7:30 pm.
Yesterday, we went to Andersen's split pea soup for lunch. By the way... if you ever go to Solvang, and like split pea soup, you NEED to go to Andersen's!!! After that, we went walking around Solvang, and I bought some post cards since I collect them. Then, my dad, brother, and I went downstairs and played ping-pong and pool. I had never played pool before and I thought I did fine for a 1st timer. At 5:00pm, we went to this thing called Meet the Manager. We had food there and got free satchet of lavender (it smells TERRIFIC!!), and got a free Del Sol frisbee. For those of you who don't know what Del Sol is, it is this company that makes lots of things that indoors it is plain, but in the sun gets colorful. Very cool! There was also free wine tasting. That night, we started reading Harry Potter!! I have been wanting to read it, and my parents said the only way I could read it is it we read it as a family and talked about it. It is VERY good so far.
This morning I woke up and read for awhile, then got up and got ready for the day. Right now I am writing on my blog, my brother and dad are playing basketball on xbox, my grandparents are talking and I don't know what my mom is doing. I don't know what we are going to do today, but I guess I will find out and tell you.
By the way, for those of you who do not know about Solvang, it is this cute little town with lots of stuff to do and lots of stores to shop at. It is about an hour away from Santa Barbara.
That is what has been going on in my life!
