Stuff with Jake last Night

             Jake likes to go on walks. He loves to play tug of war too. Yesterday two other family's came over for dinner. There were two boys around my age. One played Lego Star Wars with my brother. And one played with Jake and I. We played Tug of War, we tried to see how well Jake could find three treats, and we played kind of a keep away from Jake. Here's how we played, one person had Jake's toy and tried to not let Jake get it, if he did they would play tug of war then pass it to the other. It was fun and Jake loved all the attention he was getting. And I tried lifting Jake of the ground by his toy.  That's some fun stuff with Jake. Toodles. :3

Despicable Me 2

 Despicable Me 2 was a funny family movie. The begining was funny when Agent Wild heaved him in her trunk. I think a part that was good on the directors part was the fact it was underwater. I think the minions were awesome singers. The end was beautiful. Agnes was adorable at the end. I like how Gru didn't like that Margo liked a boy, and he kept blaming El Wardo because of his son and Margo. It was a really great movie in all. I would tell you more but I don't want to spoil the movie for you. =D                          

So Much To Do

     At the begining of this month I took up guitar. It was easy learning to play, Old MacDonald, and Yankee Doodle, but now it's getting harder. I've been learning parts of, Oye Coma Ve, by Carlo Santana. This year I'm also doing two other instruments, the piano, and one for school but I haven't decided yet. I'm leaning towards the violin. And then I have to practice basketball, tennis and soccer, and piano + guitar.  I also have to give time to Jake. To much to do. ;0

Cooking

               If you like cooking you should keep cooking if you don't you should try it. Cooking's fun. I like making anything with dough. Like brownies, cookies, pancakes. Cooking is really fun. You can experiment with different things, or make one thing another thing. Experiment with things.                                                                       Here is a delicious brownie recipe.

Decorating Your Room

I hung beads

My sister's going to fix up this surfboard and put it in her room.

                  There are a lot of different ways to decorate your room. 1) make your room yours. Think about things you like. Don't think about how other people would think of it. The way they think of your room is the way they think of you. 2) if you like privacy try signs on the door. Or you could try to lock it. If theres a key to your door carry it around with you. 3) do you think your stuff in your room is to small, or babyish? If thats the case you could always donate them, or have a yard sale. 4) think about things you like doing. Maybe you like doing art. Show of you art by hanging them on the walls. If you like collecting or have a bunch of knick knacks get your dad or someone to hang a shelf for you to put them on. 5) if you need more space and theres an empty room in your house like the attic or basement or any old room. You could ask your parents to move in there. And you could tell them that since your moving all your stuff it would also give you time to go through your stuff. Just some ideas.
