When Grandma Came

The first thing that my Mom told me was "there is a hurricane coming tomorrow !" I started thinking about it , hmmm... it hit me. "MOM WEDNESDAY IS HALLOWEEN TELL ME THE HURRICANE ISN'T STILL GOING ON WEDNESDAY!" Good thing it wasn't. Almost a week later, my mom told me that Grandma would come on Saturday. Papie would get here on Thursday. I was so excited. That Saturday I saw Grandma after a birthday party. Wednesday my mom and dad would leave for Texas. On Thursday Papie got here. Sunday we stayed at home all day until church. It was a lovely service except nobody sat at the front because we weren't there. Grandma and Papie thought it would be better for Jeannie and her children to sit in the front, but Jeannie and her children didn't sit in the front. Sunday we got presents. Everyone got a recorder, a light-up book, a portrait made out of stickers, and a craft using glue and all of those kinds of things. Me and Tihun had to make a princess doll. Arthur and Solomon had to make vehicles. Saturday we had a bike ride on the Fietsfabriek. After a few hours we went to the playground and rode our own bikes. And Marshall came for lunch.  Monday, good news Mom and Dad got here. Tuesday sadly Grandma and Papie left.

Adaline's Trip to Texas

It was one week before I was going to Texas. The second my dad told me, it was an outburst of happiness. A week later I was packing. In a few hours, I was in the airplane on my way to Texas. I played Mom's old phone and I was sitting next to a nurse. The flight attendant kept checking on me and before we landed they gave me a caramel ice cream. It was fabulous! My grandma and Papie were waiting for me. Papie had some flowers and a balloon. I told them I was so excited. And we were home soon. I told them the plane ride had been spectacular. Grandma showed me her treat pantry and told me whenever I got hungry for a treat I could get one. There was licorice, chocolate, and lots more. I went outside to ride their battery charged buggy. I saw girls playing in the neighbor's pool: three to be exact. A day later they introduced themselves because I was in the pool with Grandma and they came along. We became best buddies. Everyday I would retreat to the pool to play with Christina and two others, nicking treats all the time. Sadly it was the second to last day. I went to the exotic animal farm, held a snake, and petted a baby kangaroo. When we got home, I grabbed some licorice. It was delicious! The last day we went to a pool. I was too scared to go down the water slides, but I went down the lazy river about 20 or 30 times. Before I knew it, we were back to church and then on the airplane. I met mom and hugged her. She didn't recognize me because I had bought clothes and someone was carrying my trunk. I was really tan with a big pink hat. My family praised me when I got home. Arthur and Dad were still in Washington to come back on our birthday. Two days later, Arthur and Dad came back and we hugged them and kissed them because they were home. The next day it was our birthday. We went to Coney Island and got tickets for 4 hours. We had a spectacular time. I went on Floosh 2 times.

The end.
