The best part of winter break was Christmas. I went to my cousins house and got some cool presents. I am looking forward to my Birthday, 2014 Christmas and our families summer trip to Oregon. We are camping on a beach, going to see the redwoods, one of our landmarks, and going to Victoria Island in Canada. My brother and I applied for passports this Christmas. My goal is to get to a million words read this year. 2014 is going to be lots of fun. #11
ReplyDeleteThe best parts of my winter break is when I went with my dad to the coyotes game against the blue jackets. We lost 2-0. Although, I got on the jumbo screen 2 times, and my brothers think they saw me on TV!! The second part of winter break is when I went to watch frozen at Harkins theaters with my mom. I loved the part where Elsa sang Let it Go. It was a great winter break.

The best part about winter break was hanging out with my sisters Haley and Candice they are so much fun. I love to see them but sometimes I don't get to see them cause they live in Utah. I am looking forward to going to a cabin with all my family and cousins in April I love to do that event. For Christmas I got beats the headphones by, Dr. Dre I got the dj ones. I also got the series of Harry Potter and me and my sister Haley are reading the book together. I cant wait to see them again. All brake I was reading and watching vampire movies. That was my break.

I am so excited that it is already 2014! I am really looking forward to going to SEAWORLD with my girl scout troop this summer/spring. This will be our first out of state trip as a troop. We have been raising money from selling cookies last year and will do the same this cookie selling season. Cookie season is another thing I am excited about for the rest of 2014. I really enjoy selling cookies around the neighborhood and setting up cookie booths outside of stores. Raising money for things like SEAWORLD can be really fun, but some of the money we earn gets donated, goes to the girl scout cookie makers to pay for our supplies, and we get to keep some of the money too and we use it for activities. 2014 is going to be a lot of fun!

Winter break was so fun because I got around 11 or 12 hours of sleep each day. I had three Christmases this time around. The first one was on Christmas Eve and I celebrated with my mom's side of the family at my grandma's house. The second Christmas I had was actually on Christmas and I celebrated with my dad's parents at our house. The last Christmas I had was on New Year's Day and I was celebrating with my whole dad's side of the family. On New Year's Eve I stayed over at my mom's sister's house until midnight. I had an excellent winter break!

I loved winter break. I got to go to San Diego and see my grandparents and my aunt and uncle. I went to La Jolla to sea the seals. They were so cute. I got to ride my new bike and go swimming. I got to celebrate fake Christmas at my Mom's house. At my Dad's my favorite gift was getting a phone and a my mom's getting an I pod was totally awesome. I really liked Christmas break! Some of my goals for this year are finally being able to babysit. I am exited to learn new things in school. I really want to start to learn Chinese again. I just can't wait.

During winter break I did so many things with so many different people. On Christmas day my mom and I both went to my aunts house to eat and to open each others presents. I had a fish for 5 years before it died so I really had been wanting a new fish tank. Luckily I got a new tank and fish for Christmas but I got an electric scooter also. I love it. That would be the best part in my opinion. I have been having a fashion show by trying all my new close on so that is how I entertained myself I guess. Some things I am going to work hard for are meeting my AR goal and trying to get at least an A in all subjects. Also I am not looking forward to much just getting to go on awesome field trips. I am glad I am back at school so I can see all my friends again.

Over winter break I slept in a lot and went to bed at 11:00 every night(except New Year's:12:02). I went to the park a lot with my sister and my dad and we went to see the Zoo Lights at the Phoenix Zoo with a friend. We also looked at lights around the neighborhood, we did that a lot. I read a little, not every day, and watched lots and lots of TV. I also played on my kindle fire and we went to the movie theaters to see the Hobbit. I also watched a lot of movies at home. Most people have great breaks and do nothing but sleep. But all I can remember is cleaning and cleaning and cleaning that is never ending.

Over the winter break I didn't really do anything special. Like you mentioned I mostly just slept in and watched some TV shows on Netflix. My favorite part over the break though was celebrating Christmas. I got lots of great gifts from my family and enjoyed seeing 'The Desolation of Smaug'. I also loved going out to eat at a nice restaurant. I had lots of books to keep me busy over the break so I was able to start reading three new books! This year I really look forward to the field trip where we get different jobs and are able to control our own spaceship. I'm really striving to get all A's this year in all of my subjects and be able to get on the honor role. Nevertheless I really enjoyed our two week break off of school and am extremely excited for the upcoming semester.

Over winter break, I hung out with my cousins, Lyndsey and Tylor who flew in from Wisconsin. While they were here, we played video games, board games, went to the park, hiked, talked and hung out. I got a lot of fun things for Christmas, like Yveltal, Amazon gift cards, a Lego train set and more! We went to Zoo Lights, Frozen, and had friends over for New Year's Eve. In 2014, I hope to keep up my good grades! I also want to go somewhere tropical with my family. I just want to have a lot of fun. #19

ReplyDeleteI loved winter break. I got an ipad mini which I was saving up for but, my mom surprised me with it. I had a very lovely christmas. I spent it with my grandparents, my Aunt Leslie and Uncle Mike, and my mom and her best friend, Kehl. After that we tried to go see a movie but that did not work out at all! Over winter break I mostly played with my cousins, Henry and Harper. I could not have dreamed of a better winter break! : )

For Winter break we didn't go anywhere. For Christmas I got an electric drum set, a remote control helicopter, two bb guns, a four wheeled scooter, and call of duty ghosts. The best part of the break was Christmas. The worst part was wen I fell off the trampoline. I really loved sleeping in. That is what I did for break.

This past break I had a lot of fun! The first Sunday I was at the store with my dad when my Uncle called and said I am in your dive way! My uncle came in from Florida to visit and he is still here! I stayed here over break and just hung out. I caught up with an old friend as well. I also got an iTunes gift card, clothes, and five bucks for Christmas! I usually don't sleep too late but the last two days of break I sleep until 10:30! There was really nothing bad that happened over my break! I saw the movie Frozen for my second and third time and I love it! That is what I did over break and what I got for Christmas! #8
ReplyDeleteOver winter break I got this really cool Christmas present called a Y-Bike it is super awesome and very fun to ride. It is also similar to a Green-Machine for those of you whom know what that is. I also out with my friend Nick a lot. I went to his house, he went to my house, we had a lot of fun together, and the best part of it was the non-chores part. It was really fun. Another thing I did over break was spend the night with my cousins, Haeleigh and Savanna. They have a really cool house. The last thing I did was celebrate Christmas of course! I opened several presents like a new Xbox, Xbox controller, and mic or even the brand new game Call Of Duty Ghosts. Which is really different from the others. But, it's still really fun to play for all of you who also haven't played it. That's what I did over winter break. #13 Super Awesome Nate
ReplyDeleteOver winter break I went to California. First, our family went to Disneyland and California Adventure. We went to club 33 which is a fancy club inside Disneyland where you eat. It was cool because it used to be Walt Disney's house. We also had a tour guide that told us interesting facts and got us to the front of all the lines. This year I want to get better grades. I am going to do this by studying longer for tests. I am also excited to go on a cruise with my family in March. I loved my break but am excited to start school stuff again.

ReplyDeleteOver winter break I stayed home. For Christmas I got a new scooter that I drive pretty much everyday and I got 2 frisbees. I went to bed at about 11:00 P.M. every night and I would wake up at 8:00 A.M.. I also had my birthday and I played a kickball game with my whole family except my brother because he was sick. I had a great birthday and Christmas. They had to have been my favorite times of the year.
ReplyDeleteOver winter break I stayed with my Grandparents and rode bikes a lot. My family is town and I have loved it so far. My mom finally came home from Florida. She was there for 2 months for work. I also had a Christmas play at church and it took forever to get on my costume because it had so many layers. I really had no worst times in my winter break. I cant wait to go to Disneyland because I got a Disneyland ticket for Christmas. I also cant wait to move into my new house! I am so looking forward to 2014! #25

Winter break was a very fun two weeks off of school. Getting off school felt nice for a little bit but it's good to be back. The first few days of Winter break were fun but we didn't do much but we didn't do much the whole time because we did go out to eat a few times but I think my favorite part of this Winter break was going to a place in ASU called the Stake n shake it's famous for the burgers it sells because there made out of stake. Also they were famous for there milk shakes which were really good. I got the chocklet shake. They also have good french fries because they were crunchy. My uncle also came out to AZ but we didn't do much. On Christmas I got 2 video games 330$ and and with the 330$ I bought a new baseball bat which was 130$ and a new Lizard. #1
ReplyDeleteWinter break was fun because I got to sleep in. It was also fun because Christmas was in winter break and we had a long time to play with our toys. It had new years saved for last. We launch big fireworks and it was a blast. It was a lot of fun. And now we are back on school schedule.

Winter break was very fun. I'm happy to be back at school. The highlight of my break was going to California to see my family. First, I went to my Grandmother's house to have Christmas with her since it was past Christmas. We stayed there for a couple days and went to a place called Chill.You go in this big tent where it's 7 degrees and it tells the story of the nutcracker purely of ice. I got a book and a Barnes and Noble gift card. Then, I went to my Aunt's house. We had Christmas there, too. I got the whole set of the Hunger Games books. The next morning, we went to Seaworld to see the lights. That was really fun. Now I'm back.
