Car Trouble

One day the KIA (our new car) got damaged backing into the garage. It missed by a few centimeters and one side of the bumper bar scraped against the garage and it fell off! Dad used masking tape to put it back on. When he told Christopher and me he had to show us something on the car I thought to myself...something boring if the car's involved. So we went outside and looked at the car.Dad pushed Christopher around to the side it came off and at first I could only see a scratch, then Christopher gasped and I went to the other side of the car and my mouth dropped open at the sight of it!

But now it has to get fixed.

Snakes

If you are scared of snakes and you are not in Australia come here! Some spiders eat snakes (small ones that is). But if you can't move here always keep a stick or a first aid kit around if there are lots of snakes where you live. If you live in Australia do this anyway just incase! He, he. If you love or like snakes good for you but you had also better do this just incase. I love snakes and I keep a stick and first aid kit near bye.

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.
