My 5th Birthday

On my 5th birthday we had some challenges and prizes if you won. My whole family came and we had it at our house.


First we played egg race and  Me and my sisters and my cousins played. We had to get a spoon and put a egg on it and I was the only one who didn’t lose.


The next game we played was relay and my team came second and we had treats for our trophy. For the egg race the trophy was a big chocolate bar.


After playing all those games we ate. Then we ate some chocolate mud cake with ice-cream and fruitsalad. I felt so happy and it was the best day ever.

My holiday up north

In the holidays we went up North with my sister, brother, dad and aunty. We went for  3 weeks. We went for a family holiday to see my dads family.


On New Years we had a bomb fire. We had a bomb fire at night.  We got branches and broken trees and  big bomb fire. Well the fire was still going my aunt's and uncle’s lite some fireworks.


After that we went back to our house up north and we had our own little fire and we were roasting marshmallows.
The next day we went swimming also we saw jellyfish and we could touch them and pick them up. At the same time they didn’t sting because they were the pink jellyfish and my aunty said that only the purple jellyfish sting.


On the second to last day we had a BBQ after that we got up in the morning packed our stuff and then went to go say goodbye to our family I felt happy that we spent time with our family.
