Another long blog post

Recently, Me, Bradley, Sane, Jonathan, Ben, and my dad all had the meteor shower. It was lots of fun. We had a badminton tournament, we played on our ds's, we had smores, and lots of other things. The following day, we went to the Navan Fair. We went on lots of cool rides like the Extreme Adrenaline Rush, the Avalance, and some other fun rides. We also saw animals, played some games, and had some good ice cream. We had lots of fun. That night, we all slept over and our grandma's house. The following day, we played magic, and a pokemon game. On the next day, Me, my sister and dad went to splash. We had fun. The following day I had soccer, but it ended up getting cancelled. Two days later, I went swimming at grandma's. The following day, me and two of my friends went to see a movie on the beach. The movie we saw was the avengers. We also played ministicks and jackpot. The following day we pretty much just played at my house. Later that day, our friends Katie, Alex and Emma came over. We played skylanders, hide and seek, and some other things. It was also their birthdays, so we had cake and gave them each a present. On the 20th, I went to my new school for my orientation. I now know who is in my class, where my locker is, and some other things. A couple days later, I invited my friend Etienne to come over and play. We played on the computer, played with my air hogs, we played badminton and some other things. The next day, I went to skyzone with my mom. It's pretty much a huge indoor trampoline park. There was dodgeball, basketball, a foam pit, and just regular trampolines. It was super fun. The next day, I invited my friend Benoit over to play. We played badminton, the computer, on my tablet and with my air hogs. We had fun.

A long blog post

On July 30th, I went to my friend Etienne's house. We went mini-golfing with his sister, which was fun. There were lots of water traps and stuff like that. After that, we had a slushie and we went back to his house. We played battlefield, and we tried to record a hockey trick video. We were almost successful, until we had to leave for "Cirque du soleil". It was an interesting short Imax film. There were lots of people doing cool stunts. After that, I went back home to relax for the rest of the day. The following day, me and Emily biked over to Alexandra's house to go for a swim. It was fun, and refreshing. The next day, I went to my friend Miguel's house to play. We played with our "Beyblades", we played on our DS, we played basketball, ministicks, and some other things. After we were done, we went rock climbing at the Coyote gym with my dad and my sister. There were lots of cool rock climbing areas, including some where you don't even have to be attached. After we were done climbing, me and Miguel went to see The Smurfs 2 in french with his family. It was a good movie, it was as good as the first one. Afterwards, I went back home to relax. On Friday, I went to Friday night magic. I opened a mythic rare, and I almost won prizes. I just came short. On Sunday, we went to visit my little cousin, Evan. He was so cute! I also got to hold him. After we were done visiting, we stayed home for the rest of the day. The next day, me and my family all went mini-putting at "Golfland". I came in second, behind my parents, who tied for first. We had fun. The following day, I invited my friend Nicolas and Emily invited her friend Natasha over. Me and Nic played minecraft, we played on the Wii, and we had a nerf gun fight with the girls. I'm pretty sure me and Nic won. The next day, me and Emily went over to Alexandra's house. We made an American Ninja Warrior course, twice. They were both very challenging. We also made other obstacle courses. We also played cribbage at the end of the day. We also played some games like hide and seek, man hunt, and we bounced on a big ball with Tristan. We also swam in the pool for a bit. That was a fun day.

Going to Midway

Yesterday, me, Emily and my dad all went to Midway. We went mini putting about three times,. I won once and Emily won twice. After we were done playing, you would try and put it in a hole to try and win candy. We didn't win any, but it was fun trying. We also tried bumper cars, which was also fun. We even did rock climbing twice. I climbed three of the easy ones, but the others were hard for me. Emily easily finished them all, after all, she is a gymnast. We also went in the "Jungle gym" which is pretty much just a huge play structure with a bouncy tent. We played hide and seek, which was hard since it was pretty big. We also just explored around. After we were done, we went to eat. I had a hot dog, me and Emily shared a slushie, she had pogos and my dad had wraps. It was good. After that, we went to the arcade. There were lots of fun games, like pinball tables, games where you shoot rockets to try and hit a ship, racing games, and lots of other types of games. We had fun, and with all of our tickets, we got toys and candy for the way back. We had lots of fun at midway. After we were done, Emily went to gymnastics where we saw Alexandra, Tristan, Elizabeth and Grandma. Alexandra had class at about the same time, so they were just dropping her off. After that, we pretty much relaxed for the rest of the day. On Saturday, we went to the library, where I got two games for the Wii; Dirt 2, and Punch out. After that, we went to Wendy's to eat lunch, and after that we went to Costco to do some shopping. We also tried some free samples. After we were done shopping, we went home and played basketball. It was me and dad vs. Emily and mom. Me and dad won by a little bit. After that, me and Mom played a game of 21. I won 21-6. After playing basketball, we ate lasagna for supper and afterwards we played Clue. I was about to win, but I was one spot away from being able to guess, until my Mom guesses correctly. I was really close. After that, we relaxed for the rest of the day.

Drafting

On Tuesday, my sister had gymnastics. She had fun. I also had soccer that day. But, it ended up getting canceled because it started pouring like crazy. There was also some thunder and lightning. So, I ended up not going to soccer for the second or third time. The next day, my dad had a dentist appointment. Me and Emily just waited until he was done. After he was done, since his dentist's appointment was at the mall, we ended up looking around at some of the stores. We looked at EB games, gamestop, justice, entertainment ink, and some other stores. We saw interesting things, and we even got to try out a smoothie. It was delicious. After we were done, we just stayed at home for the rest of the day. On Thursday, Alexandra, Tristan, Elizabeth and grandma came over. We played the rubik's cube game again. After they left, we walked with them to our mailbox. After we came back, we had a magic draft. We all opened three packs each, and then we played. I came in second, my sister won and my dad came in 3rd. After that, me and Emily biked around the block for a bit. After that, we played badminton with our new set up badminton net. After we were done playing, we pretty much relaxed for the rest of the day.

Meeting my new cousin

On Thursday, I went to my friend Nic's house. We went swimming, we played Skylanders, Minecraft, a computer game called Happy Wheels, and some other fun things. We had lots of fun. The following day, Emily and uncle Steven both went mini-putting. Apparently Uncle Steven won. They both had fun. They also went to Dairy Queen afterwards. After they were done, uncle Steven came over to play for the rest of the day. We played Wii sports resort, Mario baseball and mario kart. We had lots of fun. The next day, me and Emily altar served in the morning. We had fun. After that, Emily invited Alexandra to come play and I invited my friend Jacob. Me and Jacob played minecraft, basketball, we watched big brother, we played jenga, scrabble we tried some kind of IQ test, and we played a game called monkey and monster with my dad and the girls. You had to find a rubix cube, solve it, and bring it back into a hoop without getting caught by the monster. The "Monkeys" always won. We had a fun time. The day after, I went to my grandma's house to pull some weeds. We also jumped in the pool, played at the playstructure, and I even got payed for pulling the weeds. Afterwards, I went to my aunt Christina and uncle Mike's house to go meet my new cousin, Evan. He was so cute! I always love seeing babies. It was fun. I had another fun weekend.

Playing tennis

Yesterday, I biked over to my friend Etienne's house. We went swimming twice, the first time we mostly talked and the second we played shark. We also played Battlefield, we tried to catch a bird (which we failed to do), we tried to make a youtube video off of a secret glitch on mario kart (which we also failed to do). We had lots of fun. After I left, we picked up my mom from the bus stop. A little later, we watched big brother. The following day, me, my dad and my sister all went to play tennis. After we were done, we played at the park for a little bit. A little bit later that day, we went to Alexandra's to swim. We swam for about two hours. That's all we did this weekend. Thank you for reading.

Playing lots of magic

I forgot to mention in my last post that I went over to Ben's house to play magic for a bit. I had fun. We played a few games, we traded and yeah, that's pretty much it. The following day, I played magic with my dad (using my new deck). I lost most of the games, but I still won a few of them. I also received my new tablet that day. I went swimming at Alexandra's, which was fun. The water was really warm. Emily also had her first gymnastics class of the year. She had lots of fun. Me and my dad played a basketball game that we called "Around the world 21". You had to score a point from where the ball landed, and then afterwards score 6 in a row from designated spots. I ended up winning. It was really hot outside that day, so I was really tired by the end of it. That's pretty much what I did for those couple days.

A Fun Little Weekend

On Friday, we pretty much just stayed home all day. So, nothing much on Friday. On Saturday, me, my sister and my mom all went to see Despicable Me 2. It was a good movie. In my opinion, it was as funny, if not even funnier than the first one. That was pretty much all that we did that day. The following day, I tried the two new timbits; the caramel and the orange. They were both good, like they always are. I also went to my friend Benoit's for a swim. We also went on his went trampoline (which we sprayed). He also showed me some YouTube videos, a game called Dead Island and some other things. I had lots of fun. After I came back, I watched one of my favorite shows, Big Brother. So, I had a quiet weekend.

My friends' cottage

So, for almost the entire week, I went to my friends Miguel's cottage. The first day, we played a game called washer. You have to try and throw rings on a board, and on that board there are holes. If you get it in the holes, it's extra points. The player you are facing can cancel those points by getting the same amount. It was fun, even though I lost almost every game. The following day, we played more washer, we played a couple games of croquet, we went swimming in a lake, me and Miguel played on the Wii, and DS, and at the end oif the day, we played pass the ace.  The next day, we played more croquet, more washer, more video games, we went swimming again. We also played a board game called "Sorry!" I came 2nd, while Miguel won. His aunt came in last. The following day, we had a washer tournament. I was with Miguel. We were in first place in the "tryouts" and then we lost in the elimination, coming in last place. It was still fun. We also played a game called "Pitonk". Someone would throw a small ball, then you try and throw a heavy ball as close to it as possible. It was boys vs. girls. We won, but it was a really close game. The following day we did about the same things, except we played darts, where you have to throw a "dart" into a hoop. We also played "Jok r ummy" (a board game) The following day we played a card game called "Trou de Q". You try and get rid of your hand before anyone else by placing a higher card than the one that just got played. We also had another washer tournament, which me and Miguel's dad both came last. Miguel ended up winning with his aunt. The following and last day we went fishing and we caught a fish. We let it go after. We also saw some turtles. A bit after that, it was time to leave. I had so much fun.

My end-year baseball tournament.

A couple days ago, I went to my friend Etienne's to play. We played with the "Color Ball". (The same ball that we played with at my sister's party). We had fun. We also made up a "Death version" where we have the timer going, but if we have it in our hands while it explodes, we're "dead". It was funny. We also went swimming. We played Colors, and Shark. Shark is a game where you must push your opponent the other side of the pool, while trying not to get pushed in the opposite direction. We also played Mario Kart Wii. He also showed me a game called "Battlefield". It was cool, we can fly jets, helicopters, drive tanks and stuff like that. We had lots of fun. The following day, I went to my grandma's since my dad went to pick up Elizabeth. We went swimming, and me and Emily biked back home after we were done. Afterwards we went to Swiss chalet for my graduation dinner. I ordered wings, like usual. It was really fun. My baseball tournament was the day after. We played three games, and we won all three of them. Which means today we will be playing in the finals for the A division. Yay! Yesterday I went to my friend Jacob's in between games to cool down in his pool. And after the final game, I went to my friend Nicolas' house for a "pool party". Some of my other baseball friends were there too, like Miguel, Jacob, and Alex. It was fun. After we got out, we played hide and seek, which was also very fun.

Going to the beach

Two days ago, I had my second baseball practice of the season. I did a lot of running, since I was practicing running to bases and that kind of stuff. I also practiced hitting, catching, throwing and a few other things. I had fun. The day after, me, my sister, my dad, Tristan, Alexandra and grandma all went to the beach. We saw a turtle which Emily and Alexandra called Shelly. They got to pick him up. We saw other turtles from a distance. Afterwards we went to the beach. We got buried in the sand, we played Jackpot, wee went swimming, and we all had lots of fun. After that, me and Emily biked to Alexandra's to play for a bit. We then biked back home. We had fun over there. So, this weekend wasn't super busy, but it was still quite fun.

Canada Day!

On Saturday, it was Emily's birthday party. We had lots of fun. Emily got clothes from Justice, a gift card for Joshua Perets, some books, money and some other things. We played with a kind of ball game. There are a few game modes, Fast pass, where you have to quickly pass the ball to others. If you're too slow to pass it, you'll have to restart. There is also Code challenge, where you have to find the correct passing order to move on to the next level. There is also Add one, where you make up your own pattern, but every time, you add one. You then do that same pattern backwards and on and on. And finally, there's your out. This game mode is like fast pass where you must quickly pass it to others, but there's a timer, so if you have the ball while the timer goes off, you're eliminated. The last one standing wins. It's sort of like hot potato. The day after Emily and Alexandra both had their last swimming class. They both passed. Afterwards, my family went to my grandma's for a Canada day BBQ. I had brought a puzzle ball, where you have to rotate the ball to keep a little marble balanced on different levels. Almost everyone tried, and the current record is level 44. (Held by my mom) There are 100 levels in total. The day after was Canada day!! Me, my dad and Emily all volunteered downtown. I was helping kids get off of a little train ride. I was also passing out some coloring things to kids who were passing by. After my work hours were nearly over, I helped bring the train back by telling people where to go while the train was coming. My sister and my dad helped artists get prepared and stuff like that.We got a free lunch, which was really good, and we then bought some ice cream. We then went to the vars celebration to watch the fireworks. It was pretty crowded for a small village. Me and my friends watched the fireworks together. They were really cool, the fireworks were about ten minutes long. Before the fireworks started, we just played a weird hat-stealing game. We all had fun.







                                                                    Happy Canada day!!!

Cleaning up

Yesterday we cleaned up a bit, and I had another baseball game. It was the last baseball game for the regular season, and we won it. So, our baseball team is undefeated and remains #1 after the regular season. Me and my team were all happy. Me and Emily also finished putting sand in my basketball net. It is now finished, and I can play with it whenever now. Yay! And today I did some more cleaning up for Emily's birthday party tommorow. Emily made strawberry milkshakes's for all of us and me and her also added some stamps to our stamp collection. We had lots of fun. I also played some hockey in the basement. So, I pretty much cleaned for the last couple days.

Setting up my basketball net

Today me, my dad and Emily all set up my basketball net that my grandma gave me. (Thanks!) It was very fun, I helped put the posts together, set up the netting, but some sand in the base, screw in a lot of bolts, and some other things. I got lots of help from my dad, but I still had fun putting it together. We afterwards played a quick game of 21. I won, but we didn't quite have time to finish our game. I also went to my cousin Alexandra's to swim. I also got to play with my little cousin Tristan. We had fun. We also went on a "Slip and Slide". We had lots of fun. Well, that pretty much wraps up my day. Thank you all for reading my blog, it really means lots to me. :)

Strawberry picking

Today me and my family went strawberry picking at the Proulx farm. I ate most of the strawberry's, unlike the rest of my family. We had fun, and we picked a lots of strawberry's. After we were done picking, we went on some of their slides, we did two mazes, which was really fun. Me and Emily raced in each of them. In the first one, Emily found the middle first, but I found the way out first. We had decided earlier that it was the first one in the middle and out that won, so I won the first one; and in the second maze we tied. We had lots of fun. That was about the only thing we did today other than staying at home.

My grandpa's memorial

So, I slept over at my grandma's today. We both went to see my grandpa's memorial. It was really nice, and it made me think lots about him. I want to go to it again next year, no doubt. Afterwards, we went to my baseball game. Our team won 16-10 and I caught the last fly-ball of the game. We then went back to her house where we saw my cousins; Christine and Elizabeth. Tristan wanted to play with me, so we played together for a while. And then Aunt Karen and Ben arrived, so we decided to swim. The water was so cold, we ended up just swimming for like two minutes. Me and Tristan played for another little while, until it was his bed time. So I then went outside to talk for a bit. After a bit, Aunt Karen and Ben left, and we all just went to bed. The next morning, my little cousin Tristan and I played in the "party room" for a while. And then we had smiley faced pancakes for breakfast. Me, Tristan and Alexandra played the Cut the Rope board game. Alexandra ended up winning, because she got all of the easiest levels. But, a win is still a win! We then played monopoly with grandma. Tristan just moved his vehicle anywhere he wanted, so he was kinda playing freestyle mode. I was losing in the start, but I caught up and placed hotels on two of my properties. Then my sister Emily came and took grandma's place. Alexandra landed on my hotel twice. The first time, she was missing $1 to have have completely payed me, but Emily helped her out and gave her $10. Emily landed on my hotel once, and she didn't have enough to pay me. So, Emily gave all of her buildings to Alexandra to give her a little boost. The second time Alexandra landed on my hotel she was short a lot of money. She did get saved about five times, though, so I thought Emily should have came second. But anyways, I ended up winning. I still had about $7500 dollars left, so I was pretty happy for that big win. We then went in the pool. We had a race, and I ended up coming last. The girls also played "Colours". Colours is a game where all of the players think of a colour, and the person trying to catch you will name out colours. If your colour is called out you will try and secretly swim to the other side. The person calling out these colours will then try to catch you. Then my dad came and we tried to balance on his shoulders. And then me and Tristan played in the play structure. The girls made some kind of beach, and it actually kind of looked real. We then had to leave. Me and Emily biked home, and  my dad walked. I spent the rest of my day at home. Since I am publishing this before my last swimming class, I must say that later on will be my last swimming class. I am pretty excited. Whoa, this must be the longest blog post I've ever made.

My 100th blog post!

Today will be my 100th blog post. Yay! So, I forgot to mention this in my last blog post, but me, my sister and my dad all went for a 20k bike ride. We went from our house to Birchgrove and back. It was a very fun experience. And while I was biking, I could see a few of my friend's houses. It was interesting to know that they don't live so far away after all. 20 kilometers is equal from going from my house to Place D'Orleans. I was surprised that I could actually bike that far. Today, I went to the park for a bit to watch a baseball game. It was raining, and really cold. Afterwards I spent the rest of my day at home. Today wasn't super busy.

Schools out!

Well, this is my first blog post this year, and I am really excited to share the things I will be doing this summer! Me and my class went to La Ronde for our end-year class trip. It was really fun, there were huge rollercoasters, go karts, swings, games, food and much more! It was so fun, i'd want to go back there for sure. Abhout a week after, me and my class graduated elementary school. We all had a blast! We had a water balloon fight, some sandwiches for lunch, an ice cream cake afterwards, we also played in the inflatable playgrounds. Our teacher made us each a small yearbook, which was really cool. I had a great last day of school. After school, I went to our school BBQ. We pretty much just talked and played in the bouncy tents. I had a great time. Next year, I won't be going to the same school anymore since ill be going to Béatrice-Desloges during Junior High. Our baseball team is doing super well this year, since we are currently undefeated. And today I went to Friday Night Magic. I didn't win, but I still had fun. So yeah, another school year so quickly finished.
