FUNDRAISING!!!


I am starting a fundraiser for my best friend, Madeline’s family’s adoption of an Ethiopian child. At church I am hosting a big sleepover for all the middle school girls at church and there will be games there and food and each person pays 10 dollars to be at the sleepover. It’s going to be awesome. For just 30 girls (And I know there will be more than 30 girls there) I would raise 300 dollars for the adoption!!! So so so excited! I babysat today and that was fun! Also if you would like me to babysit or you know someone who needs babysitting let me know by emailing me at abbyccga@yahoo.com! Right now I have been babysitting my 2 year old brother and a 3 year old little boy and a 1 year old little boy. Obviously a lot of little boys! Haha! Right now I am video chatting- fun stuff haha. Well bye bye now and also if you would like to donate funds to the adoption email me at the same email address. Thanks!! Bye!!!

Busy Wednesdays, Yummy snacks, and acting class!

Notice in the title that snacks and class kind of rhyme haha! Anyway I am always busy on Wednesdays- School, then straight after I have to go to piano lessons, then acting class then super fast today I am going to the church nursery to help out! I went to the library today and I went to look for a book on Malaria because I am writing a book that is set in Africa and there is a disease called Malaria carried by mosquitoes over there. I could not find one book about it!! They were ALL checked out!!!! Does anyone know why? Are you people who are not homeschooled doing projects on Malaria or something? Anyways, I have to put some clothes in the laundry and then I am on my way to acting class! I think I will enjoy it! First I have to tell you about yummy snacks before I go! LOL! Today I ate the most SCRUMPTIOUS caramel apple! Now, I know they can be un healthy for you- but I ate it only for Valentine's Day, I am eating it very slowly. Not only does it have caramel on it but it is COVERED with mini chocolate chips- GOSH IT'S SO GOOD! Also, after piano lessons my teacher gave me some Samoa's (they are from Girl Scouts) With yummy chocolate on it! Well that's all for today... wait! One more thing...

School Project!

Today is my last day working on a big Social Studies project that grades big time on Language Arts and Social Studies. It's about the Revolutionary War. TRUST ME! I thought I knew all about the Revolutionary War but you really don't know near as much as I do now until you do this project! We are studying courage and we had to write down Ecclesiastes 1-10 (LONG LONG VERSE- MAKES THE RECORD FOR THE LONGEST SENTENCE IN HISTORY!!), play Yankee Doodle on piano (Yankee means dishonest and doodle means fool, the British made the song to make fun of the Americans), Include a copy of the Declaration of Independence, 2 National Park photos, 2 National Monument photos from each of the following: Washington, D.C., Boston, MA, New York, and Philadelphia. Color 2 pieces of art (Washington Crossing the Delaware), Make map of battles in Revoltionary War, Write Social Studies Vocabulary, Make a cannon out of clay, Read Chapter 1 of The Crossing, Research biblical person who demonstrated courage. WHEW!  Well, I just have to now make the cannon, and print out a couple pictures and color in the pictures. :P
Wish me goodluck!
