Randomness...

Ever since I saw a Lamborghini Gallardo on a movie I've had a desire to own one personally. Then I saw one one lego.com! It's awesome and looks so realistic. Anyway, I finished "A Wrinkle in Time" book. It was really good. Now I'm half way through "A Wind in the Door". All I've been doing lately was reading, T.V, Wii, LEGO's, computer, swimming, and bike riding. It's been fun. I really want to go to Wild Rivers again. It was so fun! I brought my friend Tony along and we had a blast. Huge water slides and pools. The coolest part was the Monsoon Lagoon wave pool. Giant waves were created in the pool, sloshing the tons of people around. It was fun. There was also a Lazy River and a ride called 'Bazooka Bowls'. That ride was painful and fun. You would go down a giant slide at break-neck speed and end up spinning along the sides of a giant bowl and fall through a hole and into the pool below the bowl. It was cool. I'm having a great summer so far!

Swimming and More Swimming...

Swimming is all we've been doing lately. We go to these awesome water parks that have slides, splash zones, and giant pools and parks. It's been really fun so far. I learned how to do a backflip in the pool and how to breathe underwater using bubbles that come up from the bottom of the pool. You can seriously stay underwater as long as you want. You just have to have a heavy object or person on you to hold you down. Well, today I'm going to Wild Rivers! A water park that includes TONS of huge slides and pools. It's going to be awesome! I can't wait. We;re going in about an hour or so. Cheers for summer!

Summer

Right in the middle of summer, my family and I have been going to the pool, attending baseball tournaments (me), playing the Wii, building LEGO models, and going on some bike rides and watching a lot of T.V. Isn't that what summer's all about? I'm also reading the books from Madeleine L'Engle and the Dangerous Book for Boys from my grandpa and Megan. Those are really cool books. In the Dangerous Book for Boys, I've been trying to build a go-kart made from a stroller and a homemade crystal made from potassium and junk too. That's one thing I'm going to try and produce this summer. The Time Quintet books are amazing. Check them out if you haven't already. Anyway, my summer has been good. I've been goofing around, messing with my brothers, fighting with my sister, playing with them too of course at times...Oh yeah and yesterday my dad and I went on a 22 mile bike ride around town. It was intense. We did some shopping for my mom, I had to carry a back-pack on my back full of groceries, and ride around town with a neon lime green mountain bike. Man I love that bike...I also scared a woman who was sitting at a stoplight and we were right next to her in the street. So that's been my summer, plus the AMAZING High Adventure campout...
