More Bookshelf Problems

I bet you are getting so sick of gingerbread train! Anyway dad was making more bookshelfs and even painted them. But alas again it didn't fit because there is a light swich were dad has to put the bookshelfs! So he has to fix that. But I think he will work it out soon! Horay!
See ya later.

Gingerbread Train

For Christmas, my cousin Emma, my brother Christopher and I got a Gingerbread Train kit from our Great Aunty Lesle and our Great Uncle Col. On Boxing Day, Emma and I made it with the help of my Mum Tamara. We started off with heaps of little pieces. Then we made the icing and put the icing into the icing bag we borrowed from Granny. The icing bag was hard to use so we let mum do the icing (even she was struggling.)

Emma did the train and I did the carriage. Then we chose all of our pieces according to the box. Then we got the bases and stuck everything on with icing. It was great FUN!

Mulberry Ice cream

When my cousin Emma came over we invented a recipe. It is called mulberry ice cream.

Recipe for mulberry ice cream:

1. Put 5 scoops of vanilla ice cream into a bowl.
2. Buy or pick about 12 mulberries.
3. Mix until ice cream is purple.
4. If it is not sweet enough add some ribena.
5. Freeze it and if the ice cream was made about midday it should be ready about 6:30 p.m.


It should feed about 3 children.

Australia Zoo

My family and I went to the zoo and I fed an elephant named Siam.

On the latest holidays Emma came up...again and we went to the zoo with mum/Aunty Tamara and it was great!
I got my picture taken next to a wedged tail eagle, we watched the eliphants going to the eliphant show in single file (a line). I suported the tigers because they are almost extinct and beacuse I love them, Emma and I played in the sprinklers they have there and found two rainbows, next we bought ice creams. Emma bought a lenyard, I bought a wrist band saying..."wildlife warrier", then we went home.
We had SO much fun that day!

Sanitarium

In my schoolwork, I had a technology unit and I had to create a toy that made kids eat healthier. I came up with the idea of a "Snack-o-saur". It is sort of like a lunch box and it has an opening head you put health bars inside it. The names are Brachio-snak, Raptor-snak, Diplodo-snak, Tricero-snak, Tyranno-snak.

Once I thought of the idea, my dad thought that it would be good if we actually tried to make it so we sent a letter to Sanitarium Health Foods saying that we would like you to make up a health food bar and make the toys. They sent me a letter back saying that they sent it on to the product manager and sent me this shirt.

Bookshelf Disadvantages and Advantages

My dad made these beautiful bookshelf for us and painted them white.
Then he put them into place, but alas. He realised he made one of them too high! So he now has to fix it. (To bad for him).

Now he's fixed them and they look great. He also put the books n the shelfs and like I said it looks great!

Birthday delight

On the weekend my family and I went to my granny's house for her 70th birthday and my cousin Emma was up there! I had not seen her for what seemed like ages and it felt great to see her again.

we played a computer game called the SIMS CITY and it is so cool.
The night after that it was granny's birthday and who would of thought she was turning 70!
We went to Sizzler a restaurant for dinner and granny opened her gifts from us there. My family and I gave granny a very pretty purple photo album and a book of photos of our whole family.

Emma and I also played this American dragon game on the internet.

when we had to leave I tried to take Emma with us but mum and dad didn't allow it so we had to leave without Emma.
