Christmas Break

During the part of break when we had snow, I went sledding everyday. Our neighbor has a really steep hill that we sled down. At the bottom of the hill there is a fence, so it hurt pretty bad when I couldn't figure out how to stop the sled. On our neighbors hill there are two of those light up deer so at night we could still sled. The deers were actually really bright, but not like so bright that they could blind you. At night my mom came outside with me and we sled down the hill in garbage bags. it works! One day all the kids from our neighborhood went over to the big hill and we played capture the flag in the snow. It was fun! But its really hard to run fast when the snow is 14 inches deep. Our fish pond got completely frozen over so Charley and I would walk across the top and you could jump on it while you were in the middle and it still wouldn't break. My trampoline started to sink to the ground with all the snow so we had to shovel the snow off so the snow wouldn't stretch it out. My dad helped me and Charley build an igloo. We shoveled a huge pile of snow! Then me and Charley had to dig it out from the outside in. It took a super long time! So I got bored and stopped digging, I ditched them and went inside to watch Mamma Mia. On Christmas Eve my Grandmamoma, Grams and the Bergquists came over for dinner. Charley, Anders, Olin and I watched Hancock. Then when we got back from church we got to open all our presents. Before Christmas my family and I went over to town and saw all my cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. Then we had another Christmas with my other cousins on the island. On New Years day I jumped into Goss Lake. It was freezing! That was most of my break. I also hung out with friends a few times in the two weeks.
