Bear Lake



    We had a bit of a mud war in the water.
      What gymnasts do at the beach.




We went to Bear Lake yesterday, for something fun after the first week of school that wore everyone out. Morgan and mom spent the time relaxing on the beach while Josh, Brooke, dad and I went in the water. Brooke and I later did gymnastics on the beach. It was nice to get out, play, swim, and relax after a stressful and hard first week. Thank you to dad for getting us there for a fun day.

Hiking










 So we went hiking Little Mountain. It is a mountain in Franklin that is called Little Mountain. It was great but a huge workout. My favorite thing about hiking is the top. The hiking is hard but getting to the top makes it worth it. Looking at the view and looking down to see what you just climbed. It is a great feeling of accomplishment.

School Is Here.












So school started yesterday. Summer seemed to go by so fast all of a sudden school just hit. 8th grade now, top of the chain of junior high. And now with the Common Core program things are changing and getting more tough. My classes are: 
First- science
Second- U.S history
Third- ceramics
Fourth- honors English 
Fifth- technology
Six- math core 8
I love honors English. It was a class made for students more excelled in English. I also like ceramics a lot. The hardest parts are waking up early and sitting for eight hours. But over all I like I like it so far. I'm also doing cross country after school. I'm not that good but at least I do it. The past two days we've done two miles (I'm at the back every time). So here's to a good 142 more days of school.

Soaking Up Summer.




Trying to soak up the last days of summer we went down to see the Ackerman's. So we traveled down to Roy to go swimming up there. We swam, ate pizza, watched Abby swim, and went down slides (even my dad went down the steep slide). Thanks to the Ackerman's for a fun day before school.
