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!!!
