Clarinet

Sorry folks, I am switching to the Clarinet at the last minute. It turns out LOTS of people were playing the trumpet , more boys. My mom played Clarinet as well. I am OK ,I can make a sound but its not very good. L.M.B.O. :) Two of my friends are playing flute and the clarinets get to sit by the flutes!! I am always the last person out of band. My band teacher is Mr. Anderson. Last year it was Mr. Zaur, but he moved to a different school. :(   It hurts my hand when I go into the right position my mom says it'll get some getting use to. Just making sure you all know I am now a clarinetist.

School coming soon!!

I am so exited for school!! But most of my friends aren't. Mainly because I kind of like school, both learning and the social life it's kind of like living in the jungle sometimes. For fifth grade I got Mrs. Hall. Everybody says she's nice and I trust them. I also think that it will be a wonderful year!! :)  My brother jonah got Mrs. Bretzke for fourth grade. I had her last year and she was fun. My other twin brother has Mrs. Dugan she's new this year. My youngest brother Asher has Mrs. Rissi. He's not  happy about his teacher. But I think she will be a great engaging  teacher.  This year art special ( class) comes to your classroom for art. I also get the opportunity to play...... THE TRUMPET!! Now our house will be as loud as ever. He-He :)

Day 1 of Abbott Family Reunion

Day 1:    We went to a park and took family pictures. After pictures we had dinner. It was VERY yummy! Our family took pictures last so I had no place to sit, but luckily I thought of sitting in the grass, so I did. Ten the next think I knew a ton of people were sitting there.After dessert we went up a huge hill to take a group photo. We saw a few turtles there. There was a bridge and a mini waterfall across it. They (My cousins) threw a sock down one end and tried to find it at the other end. I decided to walk across a little edge without slipping even though there was algae. Right when I thought I was going to make it, I SLIPPED flat on my bum. My leg was screaming  in pain! Jonah found me crying and told my dad. My uncle Dave helped as well. My dad carried me to a bench. I was soaking wet! :(     Then it was time for family pictures then my cousin  I think, Levi? got soaked as well. We took our pictures in a field that looked like long dead grass. There was a fence around it, it was hard get over it. Then we were ready, but unfortunately the people in the back ( I was in the back ) had to duck down a little so two of my cousins helped me. I am not complaining or anything, it was the best day ever I had in a long time. Then the older kids ( 11 and up )slept in a tent in my Grandma and Grandpa's house. The younger kids slept in tents or on the tramp. The boys slept in one tent and the girls slept in another. But Sophie slept inside and I slept in the tent with my other cousin, Sabrina. We had lots of fun at night, but the boys kept yelling at us to go to sleep........we didn't.......because we having SO much fun.

                                        
                                             Here's my cousin Cloe and my Aunt Hilary at the park.

Visiting Victorville

                                                      Mojave River Adventure!

 My grandpa LOVES to take his grandkids to the Mojave River. My Grandma says...it's not a river...it's a ditch. ha ha. BUT...It really is a river just shallow...and feels nice and cool and relaxing on your feet when it is 100 degrees outside.
Here's my dad and Jonah and me trudging through the water.

Do I look sunburned??? Ha Ha!

My dad picked up this red crawdad (also called a crayfish)...it is saying..."Help! Put me back in the water...please..." :)

Last Week of School!!!!!!!!! :)

This is the last week of school for our school. I wonder what teacher I will get. Hopefully, Mrs.Hall because  my friend, Marley told me she won't yell. But I will probably warm up with the teacher I get, I always do... well so far. I will miss my teacher, Mrs. Bretzke she makes every thing interesting. But she ALWAYS want you to pay attention. She always says " practice your math facts!!." So I'm planning to do exactly that. It will be really funny and exiting if Ethan or Jonah gets Mrs. Bretzke. I'm think that Fifth grade will be hard. In that grade you have to choose a famous person and do a lot of stuff, including making a board. I think I'm going to do someone cool and whose first name is Elizabeth. I am so exited for Summer on the eighth I will be heading California. But I am also sad because  my B.F.F's birthday party is then. :(   Every Day will feel like a Saturday.

Academic Night

At our school we have this thing called Academic Night. You get to go if you get all A's or 1 B. It is only for fourth grade trough sixth grade. It was really scary, but O.K. We had to go to the Art Room at the end of school  to practice "The Walk". First we would meet in the art room then get in our lines.One line for sixth grade and another for fifth  and the same for fourth grade. Sadly we had to  line up in ABC order. Since my last name is Abbott, I was first in line. Usually I followed the person in Front of  me there was only one problem there was no one in front of me.Then we had to walk  into the Cafeteria and sit down on reserved benches. Then Mrs. Droeg calls our grade and the end person lines up at the end of the room and the first person steps in front and takes one step forward and the whole line steps forward. Then they call you up by name the you come up and Mrs. Flournoy ( the principal ) gives you a special Pin then you sit back down. On the night of the thing I saw my friend Anna she did not make it to Academic Night but she still came to support me and my other friend Allison. After that we got cookies and Lemonade out in the hall. It was fun!
