Diy!

I recently joined a site called Diy.org. Kids from all over the world complete challenges to earn badges! There are loads of topics to choose from, and the first one I went for was the Minecrafter badge! It was so easy, I completed it in 3 minutes! I had to install a mod, download a skin and join a server. I've done all of those things hundreds of times!

Mom has ordered my badge. I hope it comes soon! It's coming all the way from America and it costs $4. Here's what it looks like:

Christmas Update!

I had an awesome Christmas! I got loads of awesome presents like Aqua Dragons (which I'll talk about later), a Soap Making Kit, two cool new Warrior Cat books, an amazing colour-changing reading light, some delicious smelling bathbombs and a lot more! My presents took up the whole 3-seat sofa!
One of the very best presents was this really cool hat that I got from Stephen! He knows me too well!

Battles of the Clans and
Enter the Clans!

Jamie, Tony, Charlie and Joey came to stay, so the house was quite full! It snowed on Boxing Day, so me, Tony and Charlie went out to build a snowman and have a snowball fight! I made a snow angel and it nearly froze my butt off!


The awesome Snowman! I love his gloves!

We had a delicious Christmas dinner, but we didn't get any good pictures. We had succulent turkey, delicious ham, veggies (that I didn't eat!), and crispy Yorkshire Puddings! Yum! The New Year's dinner was even better! We had some beef as well! Tony cooked the beef and it was absolutely to die for!

The Aqua Dragons are really cool. They're prehistoric sea creatures from the Jurassic times! You get a small tank full of water and you pour in the eggs and a tiny scoop of food. In a few days, the Aqua Dragons should start to hatch! I only just put them in their tank yesterday, so I'm still waiting for them to hatch.
You also get an information leaflet for them and some food and eggs. You also get a tiny scoop for putting the food in their tank. The food looks like powder, not like real food at all! The tank lights up as well which is a real cool feature for night-time viewing!


Anyway, I had an epic Christmas! Can't wait for next time!

Newcastle!

Yesterday I went to Newcastle! It was a 3 hour journey, but it was worth it! I went to see my granddad first. We watched the football match because it was Sunderland VS Newcastle. Me and dad are Sunderland, and granddad is Newcastle, so it was very important that we watched it! Sunderland won 1-0!


After seeing granddad, we went to a restaurant with Stephen and Ian. I had a lovely Meat Feast! For starters, I had some delicious Hoisin Duck, for mains I had a trio of meats (which wasn't that good) and for desert, I had a delicious chocolate pudding!

When we went back to Stephen's house, we had a chat with his mom while I opened my birthday presents from Stephen. I got a beautiful necklace with a little bear on, a couple of cool bracelets and final, the Sims 4! I got a £15 gift card for iTunes from Ian aswell, so I can buy some music to listen to while I play Sims 4! Thanks!!


Then we went back home. I didn't sleep at all on the 3 hour journey back, I just stayed awake listening to mom and dad talking. When we got home, I just flopped down on the sofa!


Yesterday, my tooth came out in my sleep. I think I swallowed it, so I can't put it under my pillow. Then today, I was eating a toffifee. I don't like the nuts, so I went to spit it out into the Toffifee pot. My mouth felt really weird, and when I put my tongue on my teeth to feel them, I realised I was missing one! I went back to check the nuts and I realised.. it wasn't a nut! It was a tooth!

A birthday and 2 christmas parties!

I had my birthday on Thursday, and it was awesome! I couldn't open my presents straight away because I had promised to wait for dad to get back from work. I was kept busy though because I went to a Christmas party in Gamlingay! Tilly and Lavinia were there as well.
We did cool things like Pin The Nose On The Reindeer and make reindeer food (which was actually a mixture of hamster food and glitter!) Me and Tilly organized some games like Musical Snowmen (musical statues) and Hospital. In Hospital, there are two people who try to tag everybody else. If you get tagged by one of the taggers, you have to lie down on the ground and wait for someone to drag you into the safety area where you can get up! It's a fun game but it's a bit painful when you get dragged away, though!

Hospital!!

I also got a Wreck This Journal and an awesome Loom Band kit from Tilly and Lavinia for my birthday! Thanks!


When I got home, I had to wait a little bit, until dad got home, to see my awesome Flake Birthday cake and open my presents! I got lots of stuff! I got a great book about the Warrior Cats!  I got How To Train Your Dragons 2 on DVD, a little talking bird that repeats everything you say, a little model lion family, some chocolates, bath bombs, perfume and a diary from Jaime and, most importantly, another hamster! That makes three now!

I have wanted this book for ages!

My new Hammie's name is Holly, and she's a beautiful, longhaired female Syrian hamster. She's cream-banded and she's got one red eye and one black eye! She's only a little baby, so she's really friendly and tame. Holly loves her wheel. She spends every minute of her day on her wheel, running around like mad! Even though she makes a lot of noise, I still love her.


The second Christmas Party:

My second Christmas party was the best party I've ever been to! They even had a snow storm at the entrance! They had a Bucking Reindeer, Anna and Elsa from Frozen, games, prizes, pottery, free sweets, music, EVERYTHING! I came home with quite a bit!

I painted a little ceramic bear, I filled up a giant jar with sweets and I won two prizes. Actually,I only won one of the prizes because Tilly gave me the other one, since she had two the same! She's an excellent friend! I also decorated 3 cupcakes. One was really pretty and the other two were just made for tasty-ness!

The bucking reindeer was awesome, but two tries made my legs kill!  First, the reindeer goes slow and it looks nice and calm... but it isn't! It's so slippery, and whenever it moves you slide about. Then on the next difficulty, you have to cling on for dear life! Hardly anyone makes it past that level, and I slipped off the reindeer and hit the ground with a thud! Tilly had quite a few goes, and I think she beat my high score.

We had a great time at the Party

 I even took a selfie of me and Santa but it was a bit blurry!


Anyway, those parties were AWESOME!

Tomorrow I've got a pretty tiring day too, we're going to Newcastle!

Pottery!

Today I went to a Pottery-Painting place in Sleaford! You could choose from a wide range of models to paint. I chose a little penguin that looked quite easy to paint but so cute! I was wrong, well, atleast with the painting part! It was really difficult, and I had to do a few layers to  hide my mistakes. It's still in the shop to be glazed, so we'll pick it up next time we go to piano!


Loads of home-educaters were meant to be going, including Ruby, but only one of them showed up. They were all ill! I hope I don't get ill again.

Mom'll upload some more pictures when I get my little penguin back!

And here he is!
