Perfect Drinks For Summer

These are perfect drinks for summer! Lemonade: Country Time Lemonade; Kool-Aid: Any Flavor, Capri Sun: Good cool-off drink Strawberry, Banana, Chocolate, or any kind of fruit smoothie is good!

Ballet

I love ballet. It is fun to dance on stage and to be graceful. I am going to do keep doing ballet so I can get to the level where you get to be on pointe shoes. My Costumes For The Recital: When I first started, I was in the creative movement class which I don't think has a recital. The next class was Pre-Ballet which was the first level for the recital. I wore a pink sparkly dress. The next level was Beginning Ballet A. I wore a yellow dress with flowers on it. In Beginning Ballet B I wore a black and hot pink swirly dress. In Ballet 1A I wore a light pink with roses on the straps dress. I stop there. Next year I will be in Ballet 1B. Hope you enjoyed this post!

Ballet Photo

This ballet photo is so cute! It's me and my friend Matilde. It was the day of the Saturday recital! We are going to get a video of the whole performance! If I get a chance, I will post the video. It's a long video, but worth it. My mom almost cried when this girls who were really good did a dance on their pointe shoes.  Ballet:

Mix of Things

Want to know the meaning of your name? Comment and tell me your name! I will respond soon! So how much silly bandz do you have? Comment! Go Blackhawks! I can't believe they won! In my opinion, the Flyers looked so sad, but everybody knows why! I can't wait! My ballet recital is this Saturday and Sunday! Today, Thursday, I have a technical rehearsal. On Friday I have a dress rehearsal. On Saturday is the recital and on Sunday is the recital with a little part added to it. The part is called " Dafoille" I don't know if that's how it's spelled, but I put my little spelling knowledge of French and English together. I also have a test in Tae Kwon Do to pass to the next belt. I have to break a board with a hammer kick. I am scared because when I practiced kicking it I got hurt. We have to do lots of things on the test and if I pass, I become the third belt, orange belt. School's Out! I gogt a good report card and I am happy! SUMMER! That's my mix!

The Meaning of the Name Emma


EMMA
Gender: Feminine
Pronounced: EM-ə (English), E-mah (German)  [key]
Originally a short form of Germanic names that began with the element ermen meaning "whole" or "universal". It was introduced to England by Emma of Normandy, who was the wife both of king Ethelred II (and by him the mother of Edward the Confessor) and later of king Canute. It was also borne by an 11th-century Austrian saint, who is sometimes called Hemma.
After the Norman conquest this name became common in England. It was revived in the 18th century, perhaps in part due to Matthew Prior's poem 'Henry and Emma' (1709). It was also used by Jane Austen for the central character, the matchmaker Emma Woodhouse, in her novel 'Emma' (1816).

My Silly Bandz

These are my Silly Bandz. I don't really collect them like some people do. I took a picture of them on Photo Booth. It is on the computer. So I had to lean the computer so I could take the picture of them. All together I have 10; 1 butterfly, 1 rabbit, 2 frogs, 2 watering cans, 2 tulips, and 2 crabs. Aren't they cool?

Silly Bandz! People Are Wearing Them All Over the City!

On the left side is a picture of Silly Bandz. (Bands)
While I was driving to Florida, we stopped in Atlanta to visit our dad's cousin. She bought me a pack of Silly Bandz. She told me that everybody at her son's school was wearing them and that pretty soon back home people would be all over them. She was right! These cool "Bandz" are shaped to look like different objects. When you put them on your wrist and then take them off, they will go back to shape! They are fun to combine on your wrist, too! They come in different packets. For example: Spring, Animals, Fantasy, Summer, and Nature! In fact I am wearing them right now!
