On Friday, January 10th I brought Flipper home
with me. Flipper came out of my
backpack and watched me say “hi” to my grandmas. The whole family came over to celebrate my sister Ava’s
birthday. Flipper ate dinner with
us. We had sloppy joes and fries. After dinner, Uncle Pete spun Flipper
and I around on the floor by our legs.
We sang Happy Birthday to Ava and everyone ate mandarin orange cake, her
favorite. Flipper and I did not
eat any cake. We were too full
from dinner!
On Saturday, we started the day with breakfast and video
games. Then my dad took us to play
basketball. Flipper cheered for me
as I shot 24 baskets. I was hungry
after that. I had 2 tacos for
lunch at Taco Bell. We had to get
new tires for my grandma’s car and then we dropped it off at her house. After that, Flipper and I went go-karting. Flipper was not allowed to go in the
go-kart with me. He watched me get
in 4th and 8th place in 2 races. He also watched me get a spin out. Flipper was worried that I got hurt,
but I did not get hurt. Later at
home, we had pizza for dinner and played the board game, Clue. It was Miss Scarlett with a rope in the
study. Flipper was shocked and
confused. Flipper slept in
my room that night.
On Sunday, we had a fun day planned for Ava’s birthday. We ate Subway in the car for lunch and
drove to Chicago to see The Blue Man Group. Flipper’s favorite part of the show was the dance
party. He liked to shake his butt
and watch the huge beach balls fly in the air. After the show, we went to dinner at the Little Goat
diner. Flipper watched me gobble
up the french fries. There was
another surprise after dinner.
Flipper and I tried to guess the surprise, but Ava figured it out when
we got to the stadium. We saw people walking with Blackhawk jerseys. It was the Blackhawks vs. Oilers
game! We got to watch the game in
a skybox. There were lots of treats. We made Blackhawks signs to cheer the
team on. They won the game
5-3!
Flipper and I had a great time this weekend! On Monday, Flipper and I had our last
breakfast together and went to school.
