Christmas

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas this y!ear. Especially Porter and Jackson since it's their first Christmas. But for everyone else I hope you get everything you have wished for. Whoever came up with the new way of doing the family Christmas transition I love it. It works great. I can't believe Minnesota got as much snow as they did, especially after seeing what had happened to the Minnesota Vikings roof on their football stadium. Yet again I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! I hope you all enjoy what you receive, but know that its better to give than to receive.

Merry Christmas,
Greg

6th Grade.

I haven't been on my blog in a bit, but here I am now keeping up with all of the latest news, sharing news of my own. School so far has been quite better than expected. I wasn't exactly sure at first before school started if I wanted to go to school like I have over the years. Well anyways my grades are pretty good.
In gym I had an A, in Home & Careers I had an A+, in Math I had an A, as so I did for Social Studies and Science. My worst grade was a B+ in E.L.A. or English Language Arts. Currently I am writing a mystery in E.L.A. My story is about a Detective that has to find the criminal who stole an Apple pie! I thought we had to do child friendly story's which didn't matter, so of course everyone else had robbery's, murders and other sorts of crimes. But get this, my story so far is the longest at almost 6 pages long, and everyone else is still on their first or second page!!! I found that hilarious. In Home & Careers we just finished up for the next month, cooking! Our first food we had to make in our kitchens was mini-calzones. We could only make two, so I made a pepperoni and cheese calzone, and a broccoli and cheese calzone. I have to say the broccoli and cheese was definitely better. I brought home the recipe and made it for mom and I. We both agreed that it tasted wonderful. I saved some for John because he had been at work that night and told me in a note on the counter the next morning that he wrote that it tasted great! The second thing we had to make was granola. That tasted pretty good. Just Friday we made double oat breakfast cookies. We put to much oats in because two people in my group put in a 1/2 cup of oats each, when your really only supposed to put in 1/2. It still turned out pretty well. I got a great complement from my Home & Careers teacher. She said in front of the whole class that she wouldn't mind having 30 more of me. I was quite honered. Well that's it for now, when I find something else to put on my blog I will be back.
