Arturo Blog

     Arturo is a basket ball fanatic. Just like his neighborhood Arturo Loves basketball. Most all of the people in his neighborhood are Spanish including himself. All of the kids behave themselves and listen, but there is one kid who is the total opposite. Jose Likes to steal and not listen to others. When they had the NBA star, who was tremendous player.He came to their school to be the assistant coach for the team. Jose stole his shoes and watch. At the end he turned out to give it back and behave from then on. Arturo's family is most kind to everybody and loved to cook this sensational food. Most of it was Spanish. His family brought food in for the NBA star. They called him Mr. Tree. He said it was remarkable. Arturo and his team did amazing the whole time while Mr.Tree was there. Here are some of the Spanish word from the story and what they mean.

Idiotas: You are an idiot 

Mi Vida: My Life

Que Delicia: That Delight

Exellente: Excellent

Dear Mom,
     Here I am in Florida and it is an amazing place. It is a blast, I've seen a lot of what I wanted to and the cars are really nice.  The food is magnificent,my favorite place I went is the beach. The view and ocean are marvelous.

     When I went to the beach I saw a lot of nice boats, I loved the view of the ocean and everything around the beach. It's just the right temperature. My favorite part of going to the beach is getting to fish,it is really fun when you catch a massive fish. The water isn't cold like it is when your at home, it's just right.

     I went to sea world and saw all of the wonderful fish. I really like the ones that have a lot of different colors, you can't see them at home. My favorite fish is the stingray. It looks really cool with the huge fins on the sides. Most of the fish I haven't seen or even heard of. 

     The zoo is one of my most favorite places I went on the trip. I liked seeing all of the animals we don't have back home. The coolest animal I saw was the albino tiger. Some other amazing animals were the Burmese Python, Cheetah, Lion, Penguins, etc. Everything I saw was amazing, I hope you get to come down sometime.

                                                      Love,

Vacation

     Over Christmas vacation I was actually able to go outside and play because when theres school you have to do homework.  When you get done it was pretty much already dark outside. Then you have to eat and get ready for bed. Then you have to calm down because its almost time for bed. All vacation long I was home alone and had to do most of the chores and let the dogs out every hour. If I could I would see if I could go over to my friends house to play and hangout or play football outside. If I couldn't go over I played my game with my friends from school. We played COD Black ops 2 is the game we mostly played. It is the funnest game we play. I play it with Derek and Mason mostly. 
         
     At my dads house over vacation I had about five Christmases total. My favorite thing I got was probably the new shoes and headset. Most of the time I was at my dads I had to stay home alone to. When we went to my step moms grandmas house I learned how to play the card game thirty one. I taught my mom and other family members to play at my moms house. My favorite thing I got from besides my dad is a huge pack of kit Kat's. I loved all of the other stuff I got for Christmas.  

      I hope if you had a Christmas break you had an amazing Christmas.
