Dead Sea Scrolls

12-15-07 Since I wasn't swimming on Saturday, we went down with some friends to the Dead Sea Scrolls in San Diego. Besides looking at some small, torn-up pieces of paper that my dad says are very important to the Bible, I had a fun time with my friends there, though my dad and Uncle Dee tricked us into thinking we could really talk to each other with the audiophone things.

Winter Challenge AA Meet Invitational

12-14-07 From Thur. to Sun., I and some of my teammates from RST participated in the Winter Challenge AA swim meet. You have to have AA times for whatever our events you're entering. Besides racing, we do a lot of fun things together as a team. It was fun staying in the hotel with my teammates! I also love that we get to eat out every meal!

During this event, I had a "big sister", Marina, who stayed with us in our hotel room. We shared a bed and she claims I kept crossing the line and kicking her, but I doubt that. She also liked to poke my dad, which was funny! And she LOVES food, so we just had to take her to my fave restaurant, Souplantation!

T-day at Grandparent's

11-20-07 We spent the day after T-day at grandpa and grandma's house with Uncle Ivan and Auntie Diane. Relaxed, ate a lot of good food, and played Rummy Roots!

T-day at Elias's

11-20-07 We had a fun homeschool event at the Elias home for Thanksgiving. What a blast! We re-enacted what the Pilgrims did so long ago.
