Cupcakes

-
Yesterday, when I was looking for something to do, I found a frosting maker that my Mimi gave me for Christmas. We had never used it before. I came upstairs and asked my mom if we could try it. She said, "Try reading the directions." So I did. Later that day, we went for a long ride in the car, so we didn't have time to make cupcakes.

So this morning, we made the cupcake part. We all worked together. I added the flour, Adi added the sugar, and Rose added the milk. My mom added the rest of the ingredients.

When my sister woke up from her nap, we started making the frosting. We tried making it from the recipe card, but it came out too watery because we didn't have heavy cream. Milk was not a good substitute. Next, we tried using the powder that came with the unicorn frosting maker. When we tasted it, it was way too sweet. So, we ended up using regular frosting that we already had. We added food coloring and then put it into the unicorn maker. The unicorn wasn't really cooperating with us. It was hard to get the frosting onto the cupcake neatly. But they still tasted good.

The ¨ Farm ¨

-
¨ I love the farm.¨ My sister shouted at us, and I felt pretty much the same. We were going to a farm on a random day so I was a little confused. My mom and dad never let us go places for no reason. We all got in the car and we went in the car for a long time just driving and driving. Then we reached ¨ The farm.¨ but the farm was not a farm. It was a bunch of plants in a greenhouse I thought what was that we are at a garden. My mom said that it wasn't exactly a farm she said it was more of a garden with animals. We walked to the greenhouse to look at plants for relatives for Easter. We found quite a few things. We looked at Garden toys but we couldn't really find anything so we went outside in the back. There were ducks walking on the path but they were gated up they were in a cage though. Then we looked in a cage and there were peacock a few goats that my sister was really excited about because she loves goats.  Then we went back inside to look at flowers in the other house. W

Locked

  It was a dark and breezy winter night and I was coming home from my my mom's friends daughters dance recital. I was so much fun and everyone did great! When we got home we parked the car in the garage and we ran to the door because we were so tired.  My sister opened the door and said,¨ It is locked.¨ Everyone tried opening the door but it was definitely locked. No one knew what to do, but my mom unlocked the car and we all went in, except for daddy. ¨Can I honk the horn?¨ I asked Mom. She said no. We were sitting in the front seat because we never get to go in the front. I kept touching all the parts of the steering wheel, trying to find where the horn was hidden. We started opening compartments and touching the mirror. We were actually having fun. HONK!!! The horn finally honked and everyone laughed except for mom.  ¨ I told you no.¨ Mom said. ¨Wait!¨ I screamed I was looking out the window at dad. And then suddenly I started to laugh! ¨What are you laughing at?¨ My sister Adi

Dance

  An anxious feeling filled my body as I sat patiently, waiting onstage for my numbers to be called. “ You did great in all of your dances,” I told myself. " Why are you getting so nervous? It won't change anything. “ Thinking this just made the anxiousness get worse. The awards had just started, and my first number had been called. “ Featherstone… Platinum.” The announcer called. This was my contemporary dance, my favorite dance this season. In case you didn't know, your dances were ranked with Gold being the lowest and then going High Gold, Platinum, and then Diamond being the highest. My friend Madison went up to retrieve the trophy and pins, and I smiled in relief that we did pretty well. After a couple of dances, one of my dances was called again: “ Sweet Dreams… Diamond.” With this being called, all of my nerves left me, and joy perked up right there in its place. “ Sweet Dreams”  was my jazz dance, and I was proud of everyone in the group because we had made much pr
