Okay, now on another note:
I also went to GWL(Great Wolf Lodge) With Kyla Keeling && her fam. It was a blast! For anyone that has never been to GWL it is a Waterpark! It has rollercoasters, lazy river, wave pool, the bowl, a kid area, and a whole lot more! I loved it! They also have Starbucks, a spa ( Kid spa, and Bigger spa!!) Thy also have an arcade! We went to the arcade && I got a Jackpot!! I was shockedd! And, we put all of Kyla && I's tickets together and they added up to 2,001 tickets!! And, so we both got these cute bears that had a tie-dyed sweatshirt that said "GWL" on it! Kyla's dad, got us all shirts on the last day we were there. I got a pink shirt, and I got a shirt for Shelby && a little stuffed dog/wolf(I didn't know what it was, really!!).That said Great Wolf Lodge on it!! LOL.

Catching you up..

I have been so busy with softball. ( Being at the park, 6:00-10:00 ) I haven't had that much time to get on!

So I am going to catch everyone up on what I have been doing this summer..
For our summer league, our team Velocity came out in the tournement and made it all the way to the champinship. We were 1st runner up

Dad made up a 10U team called the Mustangs, We play in tournements. I play 2nd base!!

We went on vacation to St. Louis again this year. We had a blast. My favorite was Six Flags. Where I rode my 1st rollercoaster!! The Screaming Eagle!!

And, of course we went swimming!! Our summer has been pretty good!!:)

Last Day of School, And Indianapolis Indians

I am VERY excited that we have a 3 day weekend, but not only no school on Saturday, Sunday, or Monday, we have a 1/2 day on Tuesday. ( LAST DAY ) I am happy but still alittle sad that I will miss all my friends! We took EVERYTHING home today! I had ALOT of stuff to carry!
Last Sunday we went to an Indianapolis Indians game.
They won!! When the game was over we got to see the Presidential Motor Cade! It was CRAZY!
There was people with guns on top of roofs!

Well see ya later,

My Weekend!

On Friday I had softball practice. (and thanks to Kaiti bruises and scrapes.. She threw one way over and I had to dive for it.. Caught it though!) Anyway, after that I went home with grandma and we took a walk and watched tv and stuff, then we went home and got my stuff because I spent the night. When we woke up we watched more tv! (we both agreed tv was our best friend!) And walked and played outside.. then we walked to my house and got some more clothes. I was going to spend the night again. When we got to her house I took at shower and went to sleep. We woke up and went to C-ville to Kroger. Then went home and went to D-ville and went to get supper at Red Lopster. Then, we went shopping! I got a very cute spring outfit. We went home and played outside and walked some more! And, went to sleep. We woke and went to church, then we went to the Bus Stop. Yummmmmm!! We then took a little nap and watched tv (our BFF)! Then, went to Overpass Pizza for lunch/supper. Then I came home and played catch with dad. And, ode my bike... the weather is sooooo nice! Love it!

Later,
Taylor

Softball

Last Friday, we had our first softball practice. Today was our second. We have been working on catching and throwing the ball right, and also our running. We just been doing drills. I really love to play second base. We have all but 3 that aren't fourth graders! This year we have a VERY young team. But, we are starting MAJORS!! I very excited. Other people are scared, but I played some last year on majors, and it was not bad!




Note to self: Duck when wild pitches come toward you! :)

Art Club Field Trips!

... is creativity and imagination by our local artists, writers and performers... it’s creativity and imagination from YOU

... it’s knowing and celebrating what we are
... and exaggerating and building the big myths of Tippecanoe County.

.. it’s people of all ages - stories and images of all origins

Attend the T-Rex Hunting Party (collaborative brainstorming) at K.Dee's Coffee at 6:30 pm on Wednesday, February 11 - featuring a presentation of the short play "Lafadoon" by volunteers of Civic Theatre of Greater Lafayette!

Residents of all 14 counties in the Indiana Region 4 Arts Partnership are invited to submit entries of visual, performing, musical, and literary art that address the invented natural history of the Tippecanoe County region, through imaginative interpretation and fantastic fabrication. (Open to residents of Benton, Carroll, Cass, Clinton, Fountain, Howard, Jasper, Newton, Montgomery, Pulaski, Tippecanoe, Tipton, Warren, and White counties.)

The project is meant to be whimsical and imaginative, teasing visitors with mythical beasts, imagined histories and fake statistics. It will also emphasize the contributions and new creative works of artists, writers and performers in this area.

My Spring Break

I wasn't feeling well Sunday. I was feeling better on Monday, and I spent the night with grandma and grandpa on Tuesday, We just hung around the house, then on Wednesday we got up ate breakfast, then went to Champaign. We went to Champaign because we wanted to get my spring outfit for my spring show for school, coming up in April. I got a pink and white striped long shirt with leg ins and some white flats! It is very cute, and very springy! Then when we got home I packed my stuff again, my church had a 3rd and 4th grade sleepover. I invited my friend Dacey to come with me. We had super fun! I came home today and we went to Hershey's! I am having a pretty good spring break so far!

Reading Counts Trip

All of Reading Counts point earners got to go to our trip yesterday! We got to leave school at 2:30 and get on the bus. We went to the Devon theatre in Attica, to see Mall Cop. It was so funny!! When the movie was over we went to McDonald's. I had $5.00 to spend. So I got a 85 cent hamburger, some small fries, hot fudge sundue , and a small coke. And then my friend Kaiti didn't want the rest of her McFlury so I ate the rest. Then my other friend Erin didn't want the rest of her sundue so I ate that, It was melted so all I ate was the ice cream. When everyone was finished with their food we got back on the bus, and headed off to the basketball game, where we were going to be getting announced I had 132 points then, and I am tied for third. Kaiti got fifth, with 131 points. Olivia was sixth with 130 points. Dylan was seventh with 122 points. Erin was 8th and Dacey was 9th. After wegot done with McDonald's I had 78 cents to spend at the ballgame!!!! We all had a very good time!!!!!!! Great Job everyone!!!!!!!!
