Missing break

Today was a regular day. I really wish it wasn't. I miss break so much right now!! The thrills, the relaxation, the suprises, everything. But we all eventually have to get into the swing of things, and enjoy are everyday lives. Break was so awesome because I got to do something I have been wanting to do forever, which is visit universal studios. I may miss it, but at least I have great memories from everything we did. One of my favorite memories is from a show/ride called posidon's fury. I was the "volentold" person and I had a lot of fun doing it. It's something I'll remember for a long time.

christmas morning

i waited by the staircase with my brother and sister to go downstairs. it was christmas morning, and i was so excited. i wondered what would be down there. i really hoped that i would get the necklace i had been wanting for a really long time. but wwho knows what would be down there!
"come down!" my dad yelled.
 the three of us bolted down the stairs to see our living room over flowing with gifts! i ran straight to my corner. in my house we all have areas where we sit to open presents. i always sit in the big brown chair right next to the christmas tree.i pulled my giant-sized stocking up on my lap and started opening presents.

Universal

We checked into our resort at universal, we got our tickets and express passes, we were all ready. We walked over to the park, went through security, and we were in. We made a list of the rides with the longest lines, and we started. We did minions, visited diagon alley, rode the Simons ride, rode revenge of the mummy, and many more all in our first day! On our second day, we probably did double thay! We did ever thing on the universal side of the parl, which includes: diagon alley, escape from gringots, transformers, e.t. adventure, Hollywood rip ride rockit, revenge of the mummy, and more. On our last day, we did mainly  everything on the island of adventure side, which included Harry potter and the forbidden journey, spiderman, ripsaw falls, Seuss landing, fearfall, jurassic park, hogsmeade village, and dueling dragons.

The drive...

Sooo, this is the worst part of the vacation. The 18 hour painful drive to Florida. At least our car had a dvd player and I had my phone and lots of candy! We left at about 11 o'clock, and arrived at our hotel in Charlotte NC at about ten o'clock at night. I was so tired, I fell right asleep. We woke up at about 2:30 in the Morin so we would arrive at about 11 o'clock am. When after what felt like years, we saw the yellow sign that said welcome to cocoa beach. We made it!

Suprise! Get in the car we're going to Florida! Part 2

My dad takes the hat and sticks it on my sister's head. "You're in griffinclaw, and Aidan you're in slitherbutt, Ainsley, you're in huffledoor!" I had a feeling this had to do with Harry potter because my dad was naming the houses at hogwarts, but all mixed up. The actual house are ravenclaw, slitherin, hufflepuff (qhich is my fav) and griffindoor, named after the 4 founders of hogwarts. "Okay, since I vet you 3 are really confused right now, I'll explain it. We are going to universal studios! We will drive down today, go to cocoa beach tomorrow and visit grandma and grandpa, them go to universal for 3 days, staying at a resort on park with express passes, then go back to cocoa beach for 4 days. Merry christmas, now go pack!

Suprise!! get in the car we're going to florida! Part 1

I look over at the clock, it's 6:00. I hear slight movement coming towards my room. My mom walks in and wakes my sister up, then me. I quickly realize something: it's christmas. I run to the staircase where my brother is already waiting. "You can come down now!" my dad says from the bottom of the stairs. We quickly run down stairs to see filled stockings and a very large wrapped box. We empty put or human-sized stockings and open each box carefully. A candy maker, the twelve days of earrings, a necklace I have been wanting for weeks, and loads of candy are just some of the items I find in my stocking. As my siblings finish opening their presents I slowly creep over to the large wrapped box in the middle of the room. "Okay, I'd every one done??" My mom asked. "Yup!" We answer. "Okay you can unwrap in in 3,2,1!" My mom yells. We peel the paper off the large cardboard box to find carpet and an old Halloween witch hat. "Uh, thanks??" My brother questions.
