Where have I been?

In June I went to a soccer camp. At first I loved it, but then I started getting cramps every day. It was so hot out every single day! But I guess it was still fun any way, even if it was hot and I had cramps.
First we spread out into three teams. There was Coach Chelsea. There was also Coach Jeremy. There was Coach Pete, which was my coach. Last but not least was Coach Sarah. I made a few new friends: Rachel, Emily, Kristin, and Amorah. We would play games like castle. You have two teams and each team has a castle and you have to line up all the balls on the middle line. Then when the person says go you have go get as many balls as you can and take them in your castle. Then the other team has to come over the line and since they crossed the line the other team has to tag them. But if they don’t get tagged they can get in your castle and they can take your balls and they are safe in the castle so you can’t tag them in the castle you have to take the ball away from them and take it back to their castle. Who ever has the most balls wins.
We also learned like four moves. One is, the Mathews. Another is, the fake Mathews. Also, there is the step over. And like a few others I can’t remember! But I had so much fun at soccer camp.




The other day I got to ride Maggie and it was fun. I had to say whoa a few times and she didn’t do that all the time. I guess it had to have been better when she went fast. I like Maggie a lot because she is sweet, loyal, and very gentle. Nekoda is also a sweet horse but pretty much the stubborn horse. Buddy is just a very sweet and gentle horse. Nana got video of me riding Maggie and Nekoda. Have you watched them yet? Have you ever ridden a horse before and what was it like? Do you have any horses? Well that is what I did just the other day.


Yesterday I had two friends over. They had a lot of fun. First we went and saw the horses. They got some pictures of them. We walked in the pasture where the horses were. We hated it in there because the grass was too long. We ran out as soon as we could.


Then we went swimming and played Marco, polo. We also played do you trust me? It’s where you stand up and fall back. The two people have to choose whether they want to catch you or not. It was Camden’s turn. He fell on Mikala’s head. She was crying and she told us she had a headache. It left a big knot on her head. So I told them let’s not play this game anymore. They said that was a good idea. Then we played color where you guess a color that the other person is thinking. If you get it wrong that person dunks you and if it is right you get flipped forward. It was very fun in the pool.


Then we went to see the goats and Mikala was scared of them. Camden and I were running and Mikala was right behind them screaming. Camden and I were cracking up.
After that we had a bonfire. It was big. We had about two smores and four plain marshmallows each. We had a blast. They stayed until about 11:30.


I am going home this weekend and this weekend is the balloon festival down in Middletown. My family and I are going.


PS, sorry I forgot to blog in such a long time. I’ll keep you posted on Monday about the balloon festival.
