Long time no post

Well it has been almost 3 months since I did my last post. Life has been crazy, but great. I just finished my month in fourth grade and I absolutley loved it. This has been one of the busiest semesters, but also a good one. I can't believe how fast it went by. I am headed home to Indiana in a week and a half. While there, I will help my family get ready to move. They are headed to Peru this summer and will be there for a couple years. I am excited to spend a little more time with them before they leave. They are just the best.

While in fourth grade, we had one lesson where we talked about some of our favorite things (yes, from sound of music, or PSYCH). I decided that writing out some of my favorite things would be a great post. I am currently at number 104 on my list. I have just chosen some of my top, top favorite things to write about here.

1.The smell of a freshly mowed lawn (yes, gasoline, too)
2. Puddles of rain
3. Perky, my puppy!
4. laughing until you cry
5. Surprise packages in the mail - thanks mom!
6. Talking to my niece and nephew on the phone
