Mark bought six very big jawbreakers. It took Mark one day to eat his and I am still eating mine.

Audrey and Momma put Andrea’s and my hair up in straws so we could have some fun curls! They were a lot of fun!

My friend’s family (the Birds) gave us this tube. I did not think we would be able to use it this year. On Monday, we woke up to SNOW!

Mommy thought did not think there was enough snow. But there was! We brought our tube and also some trash bags. It was fun and we tubed (and trash bagged) for a hour. Mommy even went down with me once! I did not want to go home, but the snow was melting very quickly.

Adrian, Mark, a friend named Katie, and I made a snow dragon. It was huge and I could sit on it. The dragon’s name was Gregory. I want it to snow again so I can make a snow horse or other animal.

I like to go to bed early so I can read before bed time.

It started when I wrote a letter to Santa at the library. I asked if we could have lots of packing snow. If we got snow and made snowmen, the reindeer could have the carrots except one of the carrots would be plastic. I also asked for some candy cane seeds.

A few years ago we got candy cane seeds. I did not remember them though. The big kids remembered and said they were fun.

If you want to see the first time we did it, you will notice the seeds have changed since then. I think they have been perfecting the perfect candy cane or it was a different type. Even the packaging is updated and prettier, except I really liked the bright red envelope the first seeds came in. Unfortunately, there were only five seeds each time.

On Christmas Eve, I got a package in the mail. It had a Candy Cane Seed Kit from Santa! When I opened it, I found five seeds, fertilizer, dirt and instructions.

I followed the directions. They started sprouting two days later. Then they grew a lot and very quickly!

Today they were large and falling over. They do not seem to have roots, so we got to pick them! Mark took one to school with him. And the neat thing was, the dirt tastes good too! Like peppermint and chocolate together.

The only bad part was, there are not anymore seeds to try again. Maybe next year.
