Sorry, I've been busy!

Sorry I didn't post for a few days, I've been quite busy lately.

Yesterday I discovered who I would play in this year's school Christmas performance. I was very suprised and excited at which character I was, as I was to be Mary!

Today I went to my best friend's house for tea. She has twin sisters, A and C. Most of the afternoon after school, we spent rollerblading around her farmyard. She also has two kittens, Sooty and Marz. We had great fun.

Lately I've also been planning a Halloween party for us and some friends from school, on the 31st of October. Tomorrow the school photographer is in school so I'll have to get extra early beacause the photograph with me and Trouble is at 8.30, half an hour before school starts. On the subject of school, tomorrow is also the harvest festival in our school hall. Me and my best friend B are narrators in the play, 'Harvest Mice'. It's about mice who live in a church who learn about Harvest by watching the service. We also read a poem called 'If God went on Strike'. We also sing lots of songs and mum is coming to watch. Auntie S will probably come too. My words for Harvest Mice are:


Narrator 2


It was the time in the year when people brought lotsof lovely food to church. They played a funny sort of game with him-they put the food in lots of different places, fruit was put on the windowsills, vegetables were laid around the pulpit, flowers filled the vases and often, there was a sheaf of corn.
That's my post for today, I hope you enjoyed it. Goodbye Miss M and Miss E! xxx

Waterfalls


Hello everyone! Hi Miss M and Miss E!! I hope you enjoy today's post.
Yesterday Me, Trouble and mum went for a walk in the hills, as it was a beautiful day.
The ground was very muddy as we walked up the field together. When we reached the first gate, we stopped to study a large oak tree covered in acorns. They were falling all around us as squirrels were quarreling in it's branches. W carried on for only a little while before we were walking along next to a fence and on the other side a steep slope leading down to the brook. We managed to scramble down to the water and followed it for about an hour, then found a waterfall, which would be almost impossible to climb! After that we followed a sheep across the brook and up a very steep slope to the top of the hill. After that it didin't take us long to get back, but we were very tired because of all the puzzle-solving we had to do. Overall we had a great time and saw a red kite too! Unfortunately we forgot the camera. There were some beautiful waterfalls and views, that I would love to show you.

Here is a picture of my cats that resemble tigers for Miss M and E:

This is Clay,




And this is Harley!

Introducing Jedi

Hello everyone. I am BerthdduCake, BerthdduSuit's daughter. I watch my mum blogging and I decided I would like one too!

Feet!


On Thursday I was jumping around, dancing. I think I was being a bit silly actually. I landed on the side of my foot and fell to the floor. The next day (after sleeping on the sofa that night) we took Trouble (my sis) to school and then went to the doctors. They sent us to the hospital to have it X-rayed. We took the X-ray back to the doctors and I had torn the tendon that runs along the outside of my foot. I can just walk on my heel a little bit now so it's not too bad now. I've been putting Arnica cream on it and it really seems to help.


Arty Farty


On the 1st of October I copied a painting by Dee Doody (website here http://www.deedoodywildlife.co.uk/index.html) into my sketchbook. He is artist in residence at the Nature Gallery in Llanidloes. Here is my drawing:



And here is his painting in comparison:




I was very pleased with myself. I gave him an A4 copy and he put up with some of his work for everyone to see. I enjoy visiting the gallery and yesterday I bought some blank cream cards, red, green and cream corrogated backing card, glue dots and lots of little decorations to put on them for Christmas.

I hope you enjoyed my first post, I will write again soon! Bye!
