My memorable moment is my 11th birthday party. It was a swimming party, but every kid has it at a pool. So I had it at a brook. One part of the brook was calm and fun to swim in. It also had rocks to jump off into the water. The other part of the brook is like a rushing river. It was rocky and it moved fast. My friend and I decided to go down on a tube. We only had one tube, so we shared. Well she got scared and fell out and hung on to me. I was holding us up by hanging on to a slimey rock. YUCK! Well anyway she did not have fun going down on rocks. My other friend did the same thing, except he held us up by holding on to a vine. Except for those moments I had so much fun and so did my friends.
ReplyDeleteMemorable Moment
ReplyDeleteIt was a memorable moment when I got my first deer. I was up in my tree stand. We got there at 6:00am and we sat there until 6:15am when we heard her coming. So I got ready. We saw two small deer and I was about to shoot. Then a bigger doe came in so I stood up and one of the smaller deer was under the stand. I did not know that the other deer was under the stand so when I stood up it ran but the other deer did not run so I sat back down. After a couple of minutes I stood up again and I shot the bigger one and I had to wait because the other deer was just standing there. Then when she left, I climbed down. We went down and we went over the stone wall and I walked two steps and she ran. She was lying down and I kept walking a little ways and I found blood on the ground. Then my dad saw her standing up. Then, she fell down. I went over to her and she was still kicking so I shot her again. I got her at 6:45am. She was 99 pounds.
Memorable Moment
ReplyDeleteThe most memorable moment in my lifetime that I can remember is when I scored a point for my basketball team. I had never scored a point for my team before. I was very proud of myself at that game. After the game, my coaches congratulated me for my first point of the season.
Memorable Moment
ReplyDeleteOne time I had some friends over. We were on a log that fell over a mud pit. Everybody was on the 5 inch log. I was in the front. I stomped as hard as I could. Everybody fell off the log. My friends shook the log then I fell in. I had a lot of fun that day! The problem was we couldn’t get out for 20 minutes. So we had a mud fight. Then my uncle pulled us out. It still took a while to pull us out of the mud pit.
Memorable Moments
ReplyDeleteYesterday, Colby and I were out at my uncle’s pond, and we were looking for salamanders. Then I came across a rock looking thing, I was just about to step on it, but then it moved!! So before all this had happened my aunt and uncle thought that they had seen a snapping turtle.
So I guess they were right! It was a baby snapping turtle, and guess what?! It was the size as a baby’s palm!! We wanted to keep it, but it obviously wouldn’t stay that way forever. So we had to say goodbye…and let it go.
Memorable moment
ReplyDeleteMy memorable moment was when I got my two dogs because they are cute. When I am bored, it is more fun to play outside with them than stay inside. When we got my dog Scout, he was small and you could hold him but now he is too big. We got another puppy and his name is Zuce. He is still small so we can hold him. So we hold him all the time
Memorable Moment
ReplyDeleteMy most memorable moment was when I went to Florida. It was memorable because when we got to the Orlando Airport, I could smell the fresh Florida air. This year we went to two different places. The first one was Busch Gardens. They had TONS of animals. The second place was Aquatica Sea World’s Water Park. At Aquatica, they had this ride called the Dolphin Plung.The Dolphin Plunge is fun. What you do is you go down through a tube and then you go into a tank and the tube is clear and there are dolphins in the tank. That’s, why it’s called the Dolphin Plunge. At Busch Gardens, they had all kinds of different countries all over the park. It was SO cool!
That is my MOST memorable moment.
Memorable Moment
ReplyDeleteI stepped out of the car and went into the house with my mom. Two dogs came running toward us the minute we came in. I don’t know the name of the brown one but the white one was named Rosie. We were adopting her. We decided to name her Olive because she looked like the dog Olive on the book “Olive the Other Reindeer”. That was the most memorable moment in my life.
A memorable moment
ReplyDeleteThe most memorable moment to me was my first birthday. Well you see my mom made this cake and it had bright pink frosting. When I blew out the candles then my mom took them out and turned around to put them on the sink. Then when she wasn’t looking I shoved my face right in the cake. My clothes were ruined, and my face was bright pink for a week. My mom had to throw the clothes away because they were way too pink. I saw some pictures of it and they were really funny. She also said that I had to get a new bib and everything. I guess I was a pretty funny baby and cute.
Memorable Moments
ReplyDeleteWhen my OM team went to states competition, after we (Brett, Michael, Shanaya, Shereese and I) had performed our skit and went to a class called spontaneous, Bret and Michael went home. Shanaya, Shereese and I went to the award ceremony and sat at the top of the bleachers screaming our heads off while the other teams paraded around the room. We screamed to judge the hat contest. Finally, they started the awards. When we heard “Shock Wave Division 2” we listened really close, “3rd place goes to …” The whole time we were thinking and saying we’re going to win 1st or 2nd place in Shock Wave Division 2 this year. Then the announcer said, “2nd place goes to, with 105 pounds, Clarendon Elementary.” I felt like I was going to explode. We walked up and got our trophy and my heart was pounding.
Memorable Moments
ReplyDeleteI will always remember the time that I cheered of my brother when he did a wheelie on his dirt bike and his friend did a wheelie also while standing on his dirt bike. My mom says that it was always something he was good at. I had fun watching him do tricks on his dirt bike. He can do so many tricks it’s like he is a professional. He knows when he needs to stop for cars and on fast to go on the road. His friend Jeremy has a dirt bike also he took it on our lawn it tore up all the grass, He not as good as Dj. Dirt bike are important to my brother he likes them very much. Everyone morning he will go on his dirt bike and ride it up and down the road and will be on it for hours.
Memorable moment
ReplyDeleteIt was a memorable moment when I got my first deer. I got to my hunting spot and it was 6:00 am. So I waited for an hour and a half. Then, I saw him coming over the hill and my dad thought it was a doe. When I looked in the scope I saw antlers. I aimed where I was suppose to and I shot. From my position I broke its leg. He ran about 40 feet and laid down luckily. I only had two bullets so I shot again, then he was dead. I went over to him and saw he would have been a three pointer but, the other wasn’t long enough. Then I realized it was a spike horn. My dad was so proud of me. My dad called my uncle to gut it because my uncle said, “If you get a deer I’m gutten it.” So he was gutting it and it stunk. When we dragged it out, the guy who owned the place took a lot of pictures. It weighed 135 pounds and it was 1 year and a half old. I was surprised. That is how I got my deer.
