Paisley's entry on The Children's Museum in Charleston

My family and I were exploring Charleston and we went to the children's museum. I will tell you what i did. We went into a castle. The castle had a dungeon and secret passageways. We all did some art projects and painted. The ball room was also fun. I had a good time.

The four of us joined the Warner family for some wintertime fun at the Hunt Club Farm in Virginia Beach, VA on Saturday Dec 11, 2010. Peyton and Sabastian both enjoyed pony rides and feeding the baby goats. All three kids had a blast playing on the play sets and running around the petting farm area.

 After we had our fill of Turkey and Ham we began celebrating Paisley's 9th birthday. My dad purchased some leather from Tandy Leather so that all four kids could have some fun creating their own bookmarks and bracelets. It brought back many fond memories for both my brother and myself. I know without a doubt my 2 would like to do more leather projects in the future.

Paisley attended a Class on the Misers at the Air and Space Museum with 14 other 2-3 grade homeschoolers. When the class was over the kids all went out and ice skated for a few hours. Sibblings were allowed to join in on the ice skating fun.They had a blast skating with kids their age.

Andrew and I decided to go out and watch the Virginia Tech vs Flordia State game on Dec 4, 2010. We were all enjoying the game and making lots of funny faces at each other.  The final score for the game was #12 VT vs #20 Florida State 44-33. As we left Rodger Brown's Sports Bar in Olde Towne Portsmouth, VA we were greeted with snow flakes. This was the first snow of the season.

October 5, 2010

Last week we had lots of wind and rain. The temperature outside was in the mid 80's so the rain did not feel bad at all. We had a tropical storm coming up from the south and it took 4 days for it to pass us by. On Thursday the wind and rain was at its peak. We were under a tornado warning from the hours of 7am until 1pm. As the wind and rain picked up in the morning the kids and I added 3 extra lines to the boat and filled up our fresh water tank as precautions. Sabastian raced down our dock and over to B dock to catch our neighbors cooler which got picked up from the wind and caught it with a net. He also caught Paisley's raincoat which went flying by as well. During the rescue of Paisley's raincoat he lost his net and had to go get another net. So after it was all said and done Sabastian rescued 3 items from the water. It was a very successful morning.

Sabastian's entry on Nauticus

I liked going to Nauticus because of the sharks, horseshoe crabs, a diving claw, and the USS Wisconsin. I thought the sharks were cool becuse they were small and long. The horse shoe crabs liked to cling on to each other. I thought the diver claw was cool because you did not have a timer. The USS Wisconsin has big guns and cool knots. That is why I liked going to Nauticus in Norfolk.

The Run Away Hot Dog by Sabastian

One fine evening there was a big hot dog stand. A lady asked for a hot dog. The hot dog man gave it to the lady but, before the lady could touch the hot dog it jumped and said, "you can't catch me".The a girl saw the hot dog and started to run towards him. He jumped and got away. Then a dog smelled the hot dog and chased him around the tree. The hot dog got away. Then he saw mustard and ketchup and he ran to them and they made the best hot dog ever.

Sabastian's entry on The Norfolk Botanical Gardens

Bald Eagle flying to its nest

I liked going to the Botanical Garden in Norfolk,VA. It is way bigger than Lewis Ginter Botanical gardens. I liked the Bald Eagles,the plants, and the fish. I like the eagles because they are big and cool. I like the plants because they are beautiful and big. I like the fish becuse they are big and small. I liked going to the Norfolk Botanical Gardens.

Sabastian's entry on shooting a BB Gun

I liked shooting a B.B. Gun. I thought it was heavy. It has a good average of hitting. I also thought it was fun to make targets. They were big and small. The gun was also really big. I had a fun time shooting the B. B. Gun.

Sabastian's entry on Lighting the boat

I liked lighting up the boat because I thought it was cool. I thought stinging the ball lights over the top of our flybridge was cool. We put string lights on our handrails on the side of the boat. We also put sting lights on the back. That is why I thought it was fun to light up the boat.

Paisley's Birthday Day party on Nov 20, 2010

Saturday my friends come to my party. We took my friends across the Elizabeth River. We went to MacArthur Center mall. I took them to the Hello Kitty store. Then we had a quick lunch before going to see Harry Potter The Deathly Hallows Part 1. It was the best movie in the world.

Hello Kitty story by Paisley

Kitty and I were spending some time together in a meadow. Kitty fell asleep. The kitty snatcher came but, I fought them off. But, when I was not looking they took her away. So I got on my bike and caught up. I leaped on for dear life. I got in and woke up kitty. We made it to my bike. We went home for dinner. Kitty and I went to bed.

Paisley's entry on The Norfolk Botanical Garden

The Norfolk Botanical Garden is bigger than Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. In the Norfolk Garden there is so much to explore. A tram takes you around the gardens and tells you some information. It is so much fun. There is a kid's garden and a japaneese garden.
