Last weekend I had a blast! There were a couple of things that I did. I was with Bwana Chad (the ISMK director) and he paid for stuff that we would do! So most of the MKs gathered together to do something. First we went bowling. It was fun, but I was last place. But I was the only one who got a strike on the first try! The teams were from 5 to 7 and the other team was 8 to 9, I think. The bigger kids, which was two kids, played bowling, but they weren't on teams.

After we went bowling we went to Pizza Hut. We had to wait at the door to get name tags. After we did that, when all the kids were ready, we went to play on the playground until the pizza was ready. When the pizza was ready we got on our shoes and went to the bathroom and washed our hands. Then we came back out and ate breadsticks. Some of the pizza was already out. That was a pepperoni. So the people who wanted cheese pizza had to wait until the cheese came out. After kids finished they went back out to the playground. Me and Rebekah had to climb under the table because all the chairs were so close we couldn't get out.

After that we had to walk a little ways to get into the car. There were two groups. Me, Alex, Taylor and Kenedie were one group. The rest of the MKs were in a different group. When we got to the car we got in and drove to a skating place and we waited a while because the people who drove us had to go park the cars. And then a lady came out of the skating place and we went in without the drivers. We got to pick what kind of skates. There were skates with wheels in one row only and there were skates with two wheels in a row. There were two rows, which I didn't know how to use those things! So I got skates with one row of wheels, because I was used to those. I fell down three times. I skated with the lady who drove me and I skated with Bwana Chad quite a few times. And then he said one more time around and then we were going to go, but we ended up going around TWO times!! And then we had to gather all the other people. And then we turned in our skates and put on our shoes. They gave us an orange. We ate them right away!

Then we left and walked. We didn't take the cars that time. So we walked quite a ways. We went through the street and passed a fountain. We went to the mall close by the apartments where I live to get ice cream! It took a while to find the ice cream store. But finally we found it! We had a choice to get chocolate or vanilla. It was big! Kenedie ate all of hers, but slowly. After everyone finished they took us back home. Right when we got home the person who drove us gave us goodie bags! The boys got glow stick necklaces. The girls got glow stick glasses and jacks. Alex had a ball that was squishy and I wanted one, so I gave him cheese puffs for the ball because I LOVE SQUISHIES!!!
