Spring Break!

Image
Hey Y'all! Since I am homeschooled our family does not usually do traditional Spring Break because we take off so many other times throughout the year, but we do find time to have fun during the week. (It's not all schoolwork) Here are some things I did over spring break: I got the new Hunger Games Book "Sunrise on the Reaping." This is definitely one of Suzanne Collins best books! I have been waiting for her to write this story for so long. I can't wait for the movie! We painted our taekwondo building with friends and had a blast! It took all day but we managed to sneak some time in to go to the Wild Things Zoofari at the library. I got to paint and see a monkey all in one day. We did a Spring Break class at Haley Nelson Park: a mix of workout and awareness level games. Try getting chased by someone while unlocking a car, after you'll feel like you just ran a marathon. It was a fun change to our usual schedule. We went to the Prison museum and the Sam Houston...

We did a 4.6 mile loop around the rock which ended up being more of a power walk considering the trail was scattered with roots and boulders and we almost got lost. I ended up wearing an ankle brace for this adventure saving myself from rolling my ankle which my mom sadly suffered from. After, we hiked up to the summit of Enchanted Rock, which was really challenging considering I have never ran and then hiked it. Let's just say my body felt like I had just ran a marathon on the way down. I decided that you can't drive an hour and not do the main attraction. We ended up going inside a cave while we were on the summit, and it was a blast! A normal person would come home and take a nap, but I decided to make the kitchen a mess by trying my hand at brown butter blondies! They are so delicious! I am still trying to nail the brown butter, I always think it's done when it is still bright yel...

Disney World!

 Hey Guys!  As I have said before Disney World is my absolute favorite place on earth! It is so magical no matter what time of year and somewhere that every kid should experience! Now usually when you go to a theme park such as six flags waiting in line is a drag, but lucky for you all lines at Disney World are so fun you hate being the first person on the ride. Almost every one has a themed walk through with things to look at to pass the time. Now for the best part, here is a list of my favorite rides and shows you must try when you go! - Haunted Mansion : Magic Kingdom - Pirates of the Caribbean : Magic Kingdom - Soarin Around the World : Epcot -Enchanted Tales with Belle : Magic Kingdom - Frozen Ever After : Epcot -Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular : Hollywood Studios - Dinosaur : Animal Kingdom  Don't forget to meet a few characters and see some parades while you're at it! I don't know about y'all but any time I go anywhere I have to try some crazy food, and Dis...
