I have a confeshion

My mom called school and said Randy's sick on Monday but I wasn't sick and I went to Keylime Cove with my cousin Travis and his mom and my mom. It was lots of fun to go to a water slide place inside of a place and play with water and Travis and I am happy I did it and Ms. Fay got mad though and made me write an appollogy. So I'm sorry I lied and my mom lied but I'm real happy I got to play at keylime cove they have the best hot dogs ever and also slides.

TREE FROG!

today my dad sat me down to talk to me about a word we need to have in case a stranger comes to pick me up from school. He said if he sends someone to pick me up that they will say "Tree Frog" and that if they don't say "Tree Frog" then they are not supposed to be picking me up and I should run away. I think it's fun to have a secret word that nobody knows about!

I Went to Snappy's shrimp

I think Snappy makes good shrimp. I know he makes good shrimp because I ate the shrimp and it was so crunchy. He puts it in fry dust and oil and makes it crunchy and then you get sauce and you put it in the sauce. It tastes good and it crunchy but I burned my mouth because it is hot sometimes still when you get it. Snappy doesn't only make shrimp but also they make other things as well also. They make a thing called hushpuppys which are like bread but also french fries only circles. I like hushpuppys more than shrimp. Hushpuppys taste like food that always makes you happy even if your dad and mom are mad at you and your brother always gets good presents and you wanted the bike and he got the bike. But yeah SNappy is good at cooking shrimp and hushpuppys and I like them. It was sunny outside when we went there but it started raining when we were there. In conclusion Snappy's Shrimp is a restaurant on Irvingpark Street.

McDonald's Playplace

I love McDonalds it's my favorite dinner and when I wake up on weekends breakfast to. I like the meat and fries. It's a good restaurnt. They have things called playplace. My mom told me and i said what? it's a playground with stuff at a mcdonalds!!!! That means you get a happy meal and big toys! I was so mad when I got there cuz it was weird. A guy was there the whole time with a book but he wasn't reading it and mom said don't talk to him. I think he might have been a stranger danger but I don't know. So I go to the ball pit because it's like the coolest and someone pooped in the ball pit. That's not where poop goes. I was so mad someone pooped in the ball pit because the poop made me throw up and then my brother throogh up. I started to cry and my mom got mad and said get out of there but I couldn't get up and so she got in the ball pit to get us and then the poop touched her and she yelled sware jar words and I said that's a sware jar word and she said so help me and I said help you what and she yelled more. I didn't even get to eat my happy meal it wasn't fun.

Puddels

Spring time is still here and more than ever. When spring time comes it is time for rain and you know what that means puddels! When rain makes puddels its when it stays on the ground like sidewalks but not grass because the grass drinks the rain for dinner. Im glad rain stays on hard ground because it makes puddels! When it rains I wear my boots to jump in puddels. This week it's April and it rained a lot for the first time. The rain made puddels and I put on my boots on to jump in the puddels. I have had lots of fun because I like to jump in puddels so much even more than tony hawk. I even got to jump in puddels with my best friend Troy at his house in his mom and dad's driveway because it makes the best puddels. I always hope it rains because of puddels and that is why I like spring in Chicago and what I did.

Easter

For Easter when I woke up my dad woke me up. He said that the Easter bunny had hidden a basket for me somewhere but he didn't know where and I wood have to look for it everywhere. After my dad said that the first place I looked was my closest and it was right there. The easter bunny is stupid. It's not hidden if it's there where I hide my things. I told my dad that the Easter bunny was stupid for hiding it there and he got real mad. He said to cut the Easter bunny some break because he had to hide baskets for all the kids but just in the USA. He said maybe next year I wouldn't get a basket. He said him and the easter bunny are friends and that the easter bunny would be real upset if he heard me call him stupid for where he hide my basket. I put a peep on the cup of my dads coffee and made it like he jumped in and made him die. My dad seemed to be not as mad after that.

Spring Break!!

We had spring brake at school and didnt have to go to school! I went on spring brake at Cancoon in Mexico. At Cancoon there is lots of people is swimming suits who get drunk and its weird and my mom got mad at my sister because she did that one night and threw up everywhere. It was gross and then I threw up to becaues it was so gross. My sisters throw up was blue. I never saw that before blue throw up. In Cancoon the food is not normal mexaco food like at taco bell but I liked it some of it. Some of it I did not like. Mom said don't drink the water a lot and laughed but I didnt think it was that funny to laugh at it. Also my sister got so sick and it was something called montyzoomas revenge and so we missed our plane home thats why i wasnt at school on monday. I got beads in my hair at Cancoon and saw lots of cool stuff like skeleton drawings and the ocean and real wite sand with lots of umbrelas. I will like to go to Cancoon again but not with my sister and I think you shuld go to Cancoon too. That was my spring brake. What was your spring brake!

Horse

This past weekend I was in the bottom of Illinois with my dad and I rode a horse on his back! The horses name was Blue but he was black so his name should have been black. When I got on my horse a lady told us of all the ways that the horse could kill us if it wanted to. It was scary mostly because the lady who talked to us was ugly. My dad said that a horse killed Superman and everyone got really uncomfortable but I didn't understand. My dad can be weird. A couple times my horse stopped walking because it had to poop. I laughed when my horse pooped because horse poop is funny. Sometimes if my horse walked real fast it would hurt the inbetween of my legs area. I was a cowboy with my dad and we are cowboys together! becuase of the horses.

Smoque!

Do you like barbyque? Me too. Tonight I went to a restaurant for dinner. The restaurant it was called Smoque and it sounds like smoke. Smoque is a barbyque restaurant with big signs of things to eat. They are so good. They are even on tv because their so good. Dad ate brisket. Dads from Texas and he said the Smoque brisket was even better. I had chicken and it still had bones but it was good and they gave me sauce but I didn't like the sauce. Macarone and cheese is my favorite and my mom's favorite. Smoque has very good macarone only they don't give you enough. Next time they should give you more. You should get it if your mom and dad take you to Smoque.
