CAMPING

CAMPING The only home that some people have even today is a tent. most people wouldn't want for that to be their only shelter for a long time. When I go camping I usually like to go to Garner State park. We always go there in February because the temperature is nice and because they stock the river with trout. Most of the time I find boys to play with me within the first fifteen minuets.


Some fun things to do when you're camping are hiking, (one of my favorites) bike trails, fishing, hunting, swim, canoeing, and horse back riding. A lot of people like to camp in an RV witch stands for recreational vehicle A.K.A motor home. When you go camping, don't forget to always bring a first aid kit.

We always go as a family and sometimes we even invite our friends. We've been to several different campsites. Lost Maples, Blanco State Park, Cranes Mill, and Jellystone Park.

Thanksgiving In Mississippi 🦃

This year, we spent thanksgiving in Mississippi with my great grandma Prewitt. While we were there, we had a lot of fun in her eleven Aker backyard riding bikes, playing football, and sitting by the campfire making s'mores.🦃

The first night we were there it was only 40°, but the rest of the time it was a lot warmer than that. During the time that we spent there we slept in a tent outside.

We were the first people there,aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents all got there after us.🦃

At first, the plan was to take family pictures on Thanksgiving but we were spending so much time eating and spending time with the family. So it got delayed for the next day. Here's a family photo that we took 

Tom Landry

Here are some facts you might not know about "Tom Landry", Who for 29 years was the only coach the Cowboys had and who finished his NFL coaching Career with the third highest win total in league history.

Tom Landry was born on September 11, 1924, in Mission Texas. He Played professional football for the New York Giants for five years(1950-1955). Five years later he was head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. During the time he was coaching, he led the Dallas Cowboys twenty winning seasons in a row, many championship games, and Super Bowls. He was known for his suits in fedoras on the sidelines. Also his stoic expression. But behind that stoic expression was an intelligent mind that helps us with our Cowboys defense and the shotgun offense in NFL.

With defensive stars Bob Lilly, Randy White, along with Roger Staubach executing Tom's plays and strategies,the Cowboys reached the big game five times in the 1970s, winning Super Bowl Vl and Xll

by the combined score of 51-13.

 

Landry joined the U.S. Army Air Corps after one semester at the University of Texas, and flew (30) B-17 missions during during WWII before earning his discharge in 1945 is first lieutenant. His primary positions after returning to UT, were mostly defensive back and fullback. Also, even serving the team as co-captain in his senior year.

In 1990, Tom Landry was inducted into the Pro football Hall of Fame and 1993, he was inducted into the Cowboys ring of honor. After being diagnosed with myelogenous leukemia in May 1999, the coach 

sadly passed away 2/12/2000.🏉👍

In my opinion Tom Landry sounds like a pretty cool guy, US Army air Corps,that's awesome. Not only just been drafted into the pro football Hall of Fame, but he was inducted into the cowboys ring of honor  that's pretty amazing 

Playing with the Spartans

My new football team is called the Spartans. We are a really good team. We've already had two games and won both of them. We are rocking it. So far, I'd say where the best team in the league. The first game I was only involved in one place, but in our second game I played almost the whole first half on offense🏈. I play wide receiver so I'm supposed to catch passes and score touchdowns. Speaking of which, I almost caught a pass but it was just out of my reach. Even though I didn't catch the pass, I was still pretty pumped up because I was doing a great job at blocking my guy especially when they ran "44 power". When the game was over, my dad was still on concession stand duty. I had to stay there for the game after that but I didn't have to watch it. A lot of my friends were still there because their brothers were playing in the next game so I just played with them.

The zoo

One Tuesday, (which was the Tuesday after Labor Day) we had a homschool field trip to the San Antonio zoo. We went with a friend who had zoo passes that they got for Christmas. The first thing we saw was the flamingo.

We learned that flamingos get their pink from the pigment in the shrimp and 

algae that they eat. Then, we went to see the spectacle bear. The reason it's called a spectacle bear is because it has spectacles around it's eyes. Next, we went to see the Komodo dragon and the python.,

I'm pretty sure they don't put them in the same room, otherwise they probably eat each other.After that we went to see the monkey's. When we touched the glass, the monkeys jumped on the glass and started smiling at us! Last we saw the crocodiles. The The crocodile and the crockadial snapping turtle in the same cage because they won't mess with each other.

Down town tour

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, we have this workout at the YMCA called "Kids Fit". It starts at 8:30 and we're there for an hour. We used to go to archery after kids fit, on Tuesdays. But we don't do archery anymore. Today was a Thursday, and after kids fit  (instead of just going home like we usually do) we went to a field trip in New Braunfels.

My Summer Vacation

This Summer was really fun.My family spent most of are time with our cousins.One time we went to the Corpus Christie beach.It was really fun,but we all had really bad sunburns. in the time they spent at our  house,(which was twice during the summer) we did two volleyball camps and a VBS! the first volleyball camp,I didn't participate in. I did the second one though,and I learned how to serve overhand and underhand! we also took them to the movies to see "Box Trolls" and "Padington". I had a lot of fun with my cousins this summer and I hope we can do it again next time!
