A second for relaxation and blogging....

Hey guys! It's me, Morgan and great news, I'm back! Sorry I have not blogged in a while. I have been on vacation after vacation. And it feels like I finally have one second to relax. Let me take you on a world tour of my latest adventures. My first trip after Costa Rica was a vacation in Missouri 9 hours away from where I live. I learned how to play a new card game that's really fun! Swim in Big Creek and went on a big canoe. I have also been back to school shopping and I have this really cute bag that's black and purple plaid. I also went on vacation with my friend Riley from Oklahoma to the Hyatt Hills County! I got my hair braided, swam in a lazy river, and had the time of my life!

Happy Blogging,

Morgan

Costa Rica - the time of my life!

The best summer vacation this summer was Costa Rica. It was a long flight over the Pacific ocean but when we arrived and the airport we got stamps on our passports! The airport was the smallest airport I have ever seen! It also had fans the size of school buses! In Costa Rica most people spoke Spanish, so it was a hard time finding where to go. But somebody on a piece of paper wrote my dad's name and he took us to our hotel. He drove us 30 minutes down the road to Guanacaste, Costa Rica Pappagaya Bay. We got a hotel room not far from the pool at Hilton Resort. Now I'm going to name the top best and worst things that happened in Costa Rica.





Top Three Best Things That Happened In Costa Rica:

1. I learned how to zip line! I zipped through the trees like a monkey! And plus we saw monkeys! Howler monkeys 100% the time. Howler monkeys are the one's that howl. Well... duh. When we were done I got to hold monkeys! That was a blast!



2. We got a suite! But this suite was different. It had a backyard with a Private hot tub, two lounge chairs, and a beautiful ocean view. It was the life! But we had to switch rooms. You will find out why on Top Three Worst Things That Happened In Costa Rica.



3. Live Starfish! We went on a walk along the side of the beach. And we played a little game. You try to find really big crabs, pull them out of the water, and if they don't move in three seconds time, we throw them in the ocean! But if they do move they our free to go. Then we started pulling over rocks to find big crabs. Once we pulled over a rock and didn't see crabs but starfish! Living Starfish! Maybe 15! Now you don't see that every day!




Top Three Worst Things That Happened In Costa Rica

1. Bug Attack! Something happened in our first room... I opened the shower curtain and screamed! There were maybe 30-40 bugs (ants) in our room! There were some in the shower, light bulb, shampoo and conditioner, sink, towels, everywhere! Dad still made me take a shower! Through small screams I took the quickest shower possible. I got out of the shower and ran out of the bathroom! And that's why we switched rooms.

2. Call a doctor! Who knew water polo could be dangerous? I was playing water polo in a shallow pool and cut thee bottom of my feet. Blood stained the towels it really hurt.

3. Last but not least.........um..... I can't think of anything so here's another good one face paint! (Picture's are at the top of page)

The End

A Long Way To Go

The last day of school has passed. Next year I will be a fourth grader. In third grade I made some good friends. Different directions will be taken. Different careers will be picked. Friends will leave, no matter how close they are. Tears will fall till the last drop. You may be going so far you can't put it on a map. You might be so clever you advance to the next level. But wherever you go you are still the same. We might be far, but we still have miles to go. No matter how far away you are now, your still right here. We still have a long way to go...

Have a happy summer,

Morgan

Back To The 80's

Once Upon a Time or...

...Thursday, Austin, my mom and I went to go see back to the 80's. It was one of the Creative Kids plays Mr. McCoy does. My friends Drew and Jordan were in it. They were both Valley Girls. The story line was: These kids and a baby (or really a baby doll) got lost in time and went back to the 80's, and they try to rescue the baby who has been stolen. Dun Dun Dun... At the end during bow session they played the song The Time by the black eyed peas. I sat on the floor or the "first row" next to Paul's sister Domi. And Callie who is in my mom's class. It was a good play.

Egg Drop

Mr. McCoy throwing my contraption off the roof!

Friday, May 6th 2011 all of 3rd grade had to do the egg drop project. The egg drop project is where you have to get some kind of container to put your raw egg in so when Mr. McCoy drops it off the roof the egg will never crack when it hits the ground. I did a PVC pipe cube with no walls, it was the size of one inch under 2x2x2x. We took seranwrap and diagonally wrapped it around two pipes. Then we wrapped seranwrap around the egg. We put it between the two pieces of seranwrap and it was done! When Mr. McCoy threw it off the roof my box broke! I picked it up and my egg did not crack! But my box did though.... I'm just happy my egg survived!

JoJo (a.k.a Jordan)

I was watching Wall-E on my big screen TV when.... I had the MOST awesome idea of all time! "MOM!................... Can I call JoJo!" (a.k.a Jordan.) "OK" mom agreed. So I picked up the phone and called her mom. She answered and handed the phone down to Jordan. I had to walk out of my kitchen to hear her over the loud washing machine. She said she would come over as soon as possible. I continued to watch Wall-E when the doorbell rang. I opened it and Jordan and her mom stepped into the room. Jordan and I walked which turned into a run upstairs. I opened my door and Jordan sat on my furry zebra chair. I sat on my normal choice, my bed. First we talked, and talked and talked and then the doorbell rang again- "WAIT! sorry I forgot a part, rewinding please wait... -and talked then I had another genius idea." We should make feet families!" I blurted out right in the middle of Jordan's sentence. "What!?" she looked confused. "First" I said like I didn't even hear her. "You take your shoes off! Next, you get washable markers. Then, you draw faces on every one of your toes. In the end you have a happy family on your feet!" So for the next 15 minutes or so we drew and drew. After our feet moment we went downstairs. We played my X-box 360. Jordan picked her favorite game, kinect sports, party play mode. We both picked our mascot to be the alien. Jordan was red team, and I was blue. In the end, I won! 350 to 450. Just as we started the round 2 party the doorbell rang. Jordan and I walked to the door and her mom stepped in. Jordan stepped out as her mom guided her down the patio. My mom closed the door and locked it. Jordan and her mom hopped into her car and drove off, farther and farther every second. I pressed my nose to the glass. As mom called "Dinner!" .

Here's to say,
LYLAS! (love you like a sister!)

Cousins

Saturday night, everyone came over to our house for dinner. We were celebrating Omi's Birthday. We ate in the back yard, played on the swings and had fun with my little cousins, Mya and Hanna.

FC Gold

I'm not the best at goalie but I'm also not the worst. That's right, we were playing FC Gold at a soccer game. They were the league winners before us last year and I think they pretty much lost it. I was playing goalie and they were scoring on me. Well, not exactly. Most of the time it was either they missed it or it was goal kick or corner kick. I was very very very nervous in goalie because I had to play goalie half the time. Payton (sorry if I don't spell it right) had something going on with her body and could not make it to the game. And she is one of the best goalies! Anyway, I had fun.
Bye!

P.S. I have a game tonight and I think I know who's in goal, Ugg.... Stay Tuned!
