The Lake

Yesterday I went to Mark Twain Lake. I skied so much that my back hurts-Uncle John, that doesn't mean I'm an old lady! Aunt Gerri, Aunt Becky, Elizabeth, Erich, Katie, Grandpa and I were all there. We swam and had jumping contests also. We had so much fun!

Aunt Gerri

Sorry I haven't posted! Our computer had to be defragged. So, on Friday I went to Six Flags and rode Mr. Freeze in the dark! On saturday we cleaned, went to mass, and got 25 cent drinks at Mobil-on-the-Run. On Sunday we went to grandma's and played games with Aunt Gerri and got shakes and candy at QT. Yesterday we went to the pool with Aunt Gerri, Joe, Erich and Katie. That day we also got drinks at Mobil-on-the-Run. We had a lot of fun over the past few days!

Fort Billiken

Sorry I haven't posted. I've been at pottery class and playing in fort billiken. Fort Billiken is a fort we made with blankets and chairs. It's huge! We have 2 couches, a TV, 2 tables, cards, and paper to draw on. The couches convert into beds. We have slept in it the past 2 nights. It's actually really comfortable! I'm going to Six Flags with Elizabeth and Madison's family tonight! I will ride Mr. Freeze in the front row again. I'm so excited!

Cupcakes

Last night we invited the Reschkes over and had cupcakes that Elizabeth and I made. We didn't have any icing so we made homemade strawberry icing. They were delicious! Then we played and the Reschkes left. Then we watched Johnny Bravo. We had a fun time!

Answers

1. Uncle John: Grandpa turned quite fast while I was skiing, that's when I cut the wake, but I fell trying to get back over, and yes, everyone fell. 2. I did not drive the boat, I skied practically the whole time. 3. There was a lot of debris from the flood. I hit a few branches skiing.

Boat Trip

Yesterday I went on a boat trip on the Meremac River with grandpa, Elizabeth, Joe, Rachel, Aunt Becky, Erich, and Katie. We swam and I skied for about 25 minutes overall! Talk about a good night's sleep! I love to ski. I had a great time!

A Week of Fun

This week we did a lot of fun things. Monday: We went to the zoo and saw penguins, puffins, giraffes, bears, a sea lion show, etc. We rode on the carousel and train and saw Uncle John's building, too. Tuesday: Our only rest day of the week! Wednesday: We went to the Botanical Gardens with Kathleen and family and went in the Climatron, saw fountains, flowers, fed fish, and saw the awesome niki in the garden. Then we picnicked in Tower Grove park. After that we played on the playground and got completely in the wading fountain in our clothes! Then we ate frozen custard. Thursday: I went to Kathleen's house for a sewing class and I made my own skirt (as seen on Independence Day). After that I played with Kathleen and we also sewed a ribbon belt. Then Kathleen slept over. Friday: The 4th of July! We had a nice day of cleaning and then partied at Aunt Becky's. We gazed at the fireworks in the middle of the gravel road. Then off to bed! It was a tiring day. That was my week of fun!
