Birthday Bash



  On Saturday the 29Th of May uncle, my aunt, sister, and I went to do super fun things to celebrate my b-day. First, we went to get a car wash because her car got egged last night. There we bought some candy to eat in the car. Then, they told us what we were going to do next. We were going to the Sawdust Factory!!!!! There we made beautiful flower signs to hang up in our room. 

In the morning, before uncle came, Millie was saying, "Uncle Poo Poo coming tomorrow," so we caught up with our mom and Millie at Taco Bell to eat lunch. Millie loved him more than anything. More than my mom or dad.  Next, we went ice skating. I am not the best but pretty good.  Then, we saw Up in 3D at Imax. Addie fell asleep during half of it. 

In my opinion, this was the best day in my life so far.

My Opinion on My Teacher


My teacher is retiring this year so I wrote her a thank you note:

Dear Mrs. Flaherty,

           Thank you soooo much for a great school year! I have learned a lot in Social Studies, Reading, and Writing. I LOVE getting new books to read in reading groups.  My favorite writing assignment was when we wrote about our giants. Mine turned out really good. I never knew Upland became a city by a single vote. I learned a bunch more this year. I think you are a “one of a kind” teacher because you are so excited about everything you teach and that makes me interested in it also.  My favorite part of being in your class was when you told us stories, like about the invitation disaster for the bridal shower, and when the plumber left the water on and flooded your kitchen.  I had never thought about being a lawyer before, but when you said I could be the next Elle Woods, I thought that sounded pretty cool.  I will definitely look you up one day if I do become Elli King, Attorney At Law!  Thanks for being a great teacher and I hope you enjoy spending time with your family.  I will miss you and my mom is sad you can’t be my sister’s teacher.  My blog is ellisopinions.blogspot.com so you can keep in touch!

 Love always (yours fondly),

Elli King
