Homeschool field trip#2

Today we've got up early for horseback riding but, the highway that we usually drive on is closed because the construction workers are building a bridge. After I ate my breafast, we had a little meeting on what to do. The choices were ether to do nothing all day and I play video games or go to the George H.W. Bush Library in College Station, Tx. I picked the library. It was a long time before we got there because dad drove like a tourist. When we got there I learned that George was a soldier in World War II and he was in a plane that just bombed a Japanese island. That same day he was flying and his plane got shot down by Japenese so he ejected out of his plane with a parachute into the ocean. The Japanese were coming after him in the water and all the sudden he saw periscopes coming up from the water.  It turned out to be USS Finback.  He was saved!! When we all saw all of the cool artifacts there, we left. While we were driving to get something to eat, we saw Texas A&M and all of the different things that I could take. It was like a town! All and all, I had fun and I learned a lot.

Caleryn's birthday party

It was caos here, when my cousins, Aunt Karen, Uncle Brian, Crazy Carol and Nana and Papa all came here. When all of my cousins got here, they all hovard around Caleryn like a bunch of vulchers. During the party, Caleryn was like the liberals that have no clue on what's going on in this country and think that everything is fine in America. When it was cake time, Caleryn ate like a porker and she was as messy as Randy in the movie, the Christmas Story. All and all, if Caleryn knew what was happening, she would have probably loved the party.

My Nana and Crazy Carol

Crazy Carol is a weirdo! I call her Crazy Carol because she's just flat out weird and funny too. She's very good on Words with Friends, in fact, she might be better than nana. On the other hand, nana is very energetic and helpful. The only thing that nana and papa needs to learn is how to eat slow. It's like there're in a race. Anyway, I think that Crazy Carol and nana are great gramas and there're very helpful and I love them!

I was a bad boy today

At breakfast time, I had a cup with a hard and big straw for speech therapy. My speech therapist told me to suck on the right side of my mouth instead of the left side because the right side is much harder than the left side to suck. So I thought of drinking on the right side but it wouldn't come out. Then I got impatient and thrown an fit. Sometimes I have a bad temper when I can't due stuff or can't communicate. I'm not being a good example for my sister because she sees me going crazy. Next time I will try to remember to take a deep breath and count to ten slowly.

The tank power chair

Has anyone ever heard about The Tank Chair? It is a power chair that can go on curbs, speed bumps and big roots, sand and through the woods. It's like a mini land rover or military tank. But the only bad thing about it is that health care dosen't pay for it which is sucky. I think that the tank chair costs about 19,000 dollars!!! It's kinda reldicaless for that price for a power chair, people are crazy. Unlike the tank chair, my chair sucks! It can't even go over a speed bump!  This is something I will definitely want!!!

Wheelchair Sports camp

This last weekend I went to wheelchair sports camp in Houston. All of the kids (including me) played baseball, bochy, soccer, tennis, ice skating, rugbi, basketball, swimming and frisbee. All of the kids and counselors went to the Astros baseball game in Minute Made stadium in Houston. I was eating like a Hogg that had gone wild with his diet! I ate cotton candy, two hot dogs and I drunk a Dr Peper; am I a hogg or what! At the end of the game the Astros beat the Braves by 6 to 2! I didn't get to do rugbi only a taste of it because I had to go to a stinking doctors oppointment and rugbi is my favorite thing in wheelchair sports camp!

This is what I'm doing this summer

This year, I have a couple camps I'm going to. In two weeks I'm going to wheelchair sports camp, I'm really looking forward to playing rugby again. At the end of July, I'm going to Camp Blessings, I really like this camp because they focus on God. The next week we are going on an Alaska cruise. Hopefully, we'll take a family picture in Alaska since, we don't have a family picture with Caleryn yet. We might meet the Browns in Alaska, The Alaskan Bush People, they're pretty close from where we're going.  I'm also trying to get mom to convince my dad to take us to Galveston for a weekend to play in the sand with Caleryn but she'll probably just put all the sand in her mouth! We'll see since I still have to do homeschool in the summer!
