A Wonderful Day

Author's Note: Have you ever wished that you didn't have to go to school and all you wanted to do was stay home and sleep in? In this story that's exactly what happens to me.

WHOOOSH the snow was blowing around outside. I was as happy as a lark, why you ask? Over the night a snow blizzard broke out, it was still going when I woke up. As I was getting ready to go to school I asked my mom what the weather was going to be like today and she asked me “why are you getting ready for school?” Then I said “Because it is a Thursday we have school today.”  Then the weather update came up and it said all the names of the schools that were closed and I saw Pewaukee. That truly made me happy!

The Buzzer Beater

Author's Note: I love basketball and I hope that this story shows you that basketball is actually a really good sport.

Dribble, dribble, you could hear as I came down the court. 10, 9, 8, 7….1, “shoot” the crowd yelled. As I shot from beyond the arc the buzzer went off. We waited for a second as the ball swooshed through the net. The crowd and my team stormed the court. Urrr urr urr I could hear my alarm clock going off as I opened my eyes. As I lay in bed I say to myself today “your team and you are going to win the tournament.” I got up ready to go to my tourney and my mom wasn’t ready. So I asked her “why aren’t you ready or at least getting ready?” She said to me your tournament doesn’t start till noon. I looked at the clock and it said 9:30AM. As I was sitting there in my room watching T.V. I glanced at the clock once more… it said 11:15. I ran into my mom’s room saying “let’s go” mom. With a sad look upon my mom’s face she said to me “honey I just got an e-mail from coach, your tournament has been cancelled due to something that went wrong at the school. So I said to myself “well I guess I can go back to bed then!”

Christmas Cookies

Author's Note: I love making Christmas cookies that is my second favorite thing about christmas. It is so fun when you get to spend time with your family doing something you love.

              Every Christmas, every year my aunt and grandma make Christmas cookies. I love all the different kinds and shapes that they make. Candy canes, chocolate chip, crescent, peanut butter bars, lemon bars, toffee bars and rice crispy bars. I love all of those cookies but my favorite cookie of them all is the rice crispy bars. Also my grandma makes rice crispy bars and puts a peanut butter/ chocolate topping on top!! I always wish that they would make them when I come down for Christmas because when they are making all the cookies I bet and I know that the kitchen smells amazing!!
