Tulle Skirt

I found this project in my new American Girl magazine. You take a denim skirt and add a tulle fringe. It was a lot of fun.

Do you like my pink beard?

 Here I am modeling the finished product.

This skirt was easy to make and I liked the way it looked. But it was itchy.

Sewing Project

Today I completed a new sewing project. It was a bookmark. It was really fun. Mom let me pick out my very own fabric for this project. Next project I am going to make a tote bag. I already have the material that I picked out all by myself.

Gymnastics and Sewing

I was in another gymnastics meet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7N6FMfmFd8

I did a lot better. I received 1st in vault and 2nd in bars, floor, and beam. I am happy I did better this time. I am also moving up to the Hope Team.

I am also going to be Mary in the church Christmas Pageant. I am really happy about it.

I am learning to sew.

Look at the headband that I made.

 

 

My mom helped me put on a fabric flower.

Next I am going to sew a bookmark and a tote bag. I really like sewing.

 

I have also been spending a lot of time organizing my room to make room for new Christmas presents. I am really excited about opening my biggest Christmas present. I am going to tear into it like a torpedo.

 

Field Trips and Gymnastics

Last Saturday I had my first gymnastics meet with the Shining Stars team. I placed 3rd in vault, 3rd in beam, 3rd in floor, and 2nd in bars. I had a good time. Here is some video of me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgEu26ERWTo

Afterwards I got to celebrate and eat at one of my favorite restaurants Mamacitas.

 

Then we got to go to see the San Antonio Symphony perform The Firebird. This was my first time to go to the Symphony and I like it.

Then we went to the San Antonio Zoo. We saw some baby monkeys and baby tigers. I got to see some of my favorite animals like the cheetah, snakes, addax, komodo dragons and okapi. I can't wait for them to open the giraffe exhibit because I like giraffes.

I hope to get to go to the zoo again next week since we have a family membership.

Johnson Space Center Homeschool Day

Last week we got to go to the Johnson Space Center Homeschool Day. I got to see and do a lot of fun things. I even got to make gooey stuff, make a tornado in a jar, see some cool science experiments, shoot a miniature rocket, and see mission control. I also got to go on stage with Mad Science.

 

It was the best field trip.

 

Whats New

Today I learned about the respiratory system. We did an experiment where we were a giant and we drew a nose, lung, heart, and foot on paper plates. Then we used a tube to use as a trachea. We used red markers for oxygen and blue markers for carbon dioxide. We moved the markers to show the giant breathing.

I moved up in gymnastics to Shining Stars. I used to be Mini Stars. Now I get to go to meets. I have climbed the rope twice more. I am happy.
