I'm at school right now and I just want to say that I've not written a blog for a long time because I'm too busy and just too tired.
I can't wait until tuesday because my class is havig a Bunny-Brunch! I'm bringing in cinnimon buns and pinapple-goo. We only have two hours of school that day because one day we had a half day because of parent teacher conferences. When I woke up that day I found out that we had a two hour delay too, due to the icey weather. We have to make up the oher two hours on tuesday even though we were supposed to have the day off! Yesterday, I walked over to the high school with the rennisance club during school to see the dress rehearsal of The Little Shop of Horrors. It was awesome! I want to go to their real preformance because I have gotten a coupon for one free adult and student!
Oh it's saturday now and in a half hour we're going to the egg hunt at the boat yard where Pop-pop-Hubby docks his boat and now I have to go get dressed for that I'll continue with this story later bye bye!

A Horse That Ate Jellybeans
Another limerick poem
There once was a horse
He ate jellybeans of course
He juggled and sang
With his friend Lang
Until the doorbell rang

A Silly Dog
This is a limerick poem that I wrote for school.
Once upon a time
A dog ate a lime
He danced around
He pranced around
And started to fight crime!

Viking Children
This is just a little article that I wrote about viking children in school. Viking children had a very interesting life. The children ate butter, cheese, bread, and smoked fish. The bread was made in a clay oven. The children helped grind the flour in the longhouse using a hand quern. Weddings, funerals, and religious festivals were celebrated with a big feast. Some feasts lasted for weeks!
Their clothes were clothes that an adult didn't need anymore. Their clothes were made from wool and linen. It takes a couple hours to make one piece of cloth. The children took a bath every Saturday. Their transportation was walking and sailing on a boat.
The children didn't go to school. Instead they helped their parents at work. Children became adults at the age of 15 or 16. Young boys were often sent away to live with a foster family for a few years. A girls father usually chooses her future husband.
The children and their families all lived in a longhouse together. The longhouse only has one room. There is a fire in the middle of the room and a hole in the roof to let the smoke out. They cover the top of the roof with a turf to keep the heat in the winter. That was my story, I hope you enjoyed it!
