The Story About Shelby, Trigger and Justin

At Salisbury Baptist Temple there are horses. Shelby is a girl who goes there and sees the horses.

A horse she likes is ‘Trigger.’ It is a Christian camp. Fridays are rodeo days. There is barrel racing also.

There is a horse trainer. His job is to feed the horses and groom. His name is Justin. His favorite horse is Trigger too. Trigger has a rearing strap. He does barrel racing. Justin thinks that he is a good horse. A person learns how to be a horse trainer by doing this, first you have to go to horse training school, second you have to go to a farm, and third, you have to get a horse and walk it in a circle.

One day Shelby got bucked off Trigger.

Every Thursday we go on the waterslide. You have to wear a uniform. There are some horses that are not for riding. Some horses are in training but you cannot ride them. Barrel Racing is Shelby’s favorite sport. The summer was over and Shelby had a good summer. Her favorite part was the rodeo.


Digging

I like to dig holes. I like to dig right next to a field. I use little shovels because they don’t weigh that much. When you’re in the hole it feels like the sides are going to drop on you. When the hole gets deeper it gets more fun because the ground gets damp and sticks together.

One time I dug a hole ten feet long. The next day I took a sliding board and made it a stairway into the hole. I climbed down the slide to the bottom of the hole. I took my shovel, bucket, and magnifying glass. I use the magnifying glass to look at little things that I find in the dirt.

You can sometimes find something when you dig. I know because I found a big chain and a big bone. I found the bone in the afternoon and it was Monday. These things are interesting because they can be used for something. You should wear a short sleeve shirt so that your arms are able to move easier. You should wear some gloves and a hat that is big to keep the sun off. One of the most important things to wear is a pair of high, rubber boots because the deeper you dig the wetter it is. You should dig in the morning and you should be as warm as you can be.

I hope that some day I will dig up something that is really valuable. I would like to give it to a museum to help them learn about the past. Digging is fun and it can also help you to learn about who lived here before us.


The Adventure of Buddy and Junior

Once there was a cat named Junior, he is orange with stripes and a dog named Buddy, he is a brown Chihuahua. They went to Florida. Buddy said, “Let’s go down to the water, Junior.” Junior said, “NO, I am not going down to the water.” Buddy ran down to the water. Junior did not want to be alone so he ran after him.

Buddy said, “I thought you did not want to go down to the water.” Junior said, “I have to watch YOU.” Then it started to rain. Buddy and Junior did not have anywhere to go. The next day it was a nice. So Buddy and Junior when for a walk.

They met a little girl named Danielle. She saw them and she asked her mom if she could keep them. Her mom said if they don’t have a family. So her mom put out fliers. No one clamed them so they kept them. They all lived happily ever after!



Once upon a time there were three little boys. They loved football. The boys’ names were Michael Vick, Randy Moss and Cory Dillon. They met at a Barbeque.

Mike said to Randy and Cory, “Do you want to play football?” They played football for four hours that afternoon. Then a year later they were on the same football team. Mike was a quarterback, Randy was a wide receiver and Cory was a halfback. They won 16 games straight in a row. They won by passing and running. They went to the Hawaii Bowl and they won. Then in the final four they got first place. They went around the world and won all their games with no losses. Nobody could beat them not even the juniors could beat them.

They went into the off-season and they practiced every day in the yard. The coach called and said, “You boys need to rest for the season start.” “Ok,” they said, “bye.” Dad said, “What did he say?” “Nothing but rest from football a while.” Mom said, “You had a fine season, boys.” Dad called the coach. “Why do my boys have to rest from football? There is a future to make money.” “Would you want to make money off these kids?” asked the coach. I will give you some money. I will give you 2,134 dollars every two weeks if you need it. They are fine players that will make a lot of money one day but right now they need to rest. They will make you money by passing and scoring touchdowns if they aren’t overworked.

They went into a sports history book because they were so good and they got lots of money. Every time their team won they got six million dollars. Their mom, Megan, died when she was 45 years old in a car crash. Everyone was sad. She wasn’t really a mom to all of the boys but they thought of her that way. They missed her a lot because of her way she used to talk to them and teach them all things that they were not allowed to do. She would share her recipes and ask them what they wanted to eat. Cory, Mike and Randy would miss her but she got to see them become famous football players and she was proud of her boys.



Once upon a time there was a girl named JoJo. She always dreamed that she could be a singer when she grew up. When she was thirteen she had a sleepover. The girls talked about becoming famous with their singing.

Five months later at America Idol she sang a beautiful song. All the judges gave her a ten. They said that she was the youngest contestant they had heard in the contest. Her opponent was Christie Sanchez. She sang a fast song. All the judges gave her a five and JoJo won!

Then big things happened and she was in a movie singing. She made a song called, “Girls Listen Up.” Everyone loved her singing and she went on to be in the BET Grammy awards. She made a CD called, “JoJo Coming Up.” The CD had fifteen hits on it. One of the songs was” Where All My At”. That was the children’s favorite song and a number one hit in just one year. Before she knew it, she had twenty grammy awards. Oprah called her and asked if she could perform on her show. She told her she would be glad to be on her show.

Shortly after the show she met a boy. His name was Justin Truitt. JoJo and Justin got married several years later. Their wedding was in the Bahamas. They had twins, a girl and a boy. They moved into a mansion. They named their girl, JT and their boy, TJ. Jojo felt that she had all that she had ever dreamed about. She was so happy in her new life that her singing became even better and the people loved her.



There were six girls. Their names were Megan, Darian, Kate, Courtney, Emily, and Olivia. Megan was the tallest. Emily was the smallest one. Darian, Kate, Courtney were about the same size. They lived in the same neighborhood but they didn’t meet until one day at school in the cafeteria when they were in the eighth grade and they became friends. They decided that they would like to go out for cheerleading. Their coach’s name was Miss Ann. So they went to sign up in the gym. All of them were accepted and then the fun began.

Their uniforms were orange and blue with gold decorations on the shoulder. There was also a gold WiHi on the front of the shirt. On the skirt it had a gold emblem. They wore sneakers with gold, orange and blue stripes. The socks were white ankle socks. Their pompoms were gold, blue and orange too. They had the same colored ribbons in their hair.

They had to come up with new cheers, stunts, flips and jumps. The coach paired them up into groups of three. They had to come up with two cheers, four stunts, five flips and two jumps. They had two weeks and five days until they had to finish. The competition was in four weeks.

The competition was in Orlando, Florida. When they got on the airplane Olivia, and Darian were scared because they had never been on an airplane before. Nobody else but cheerleaders were on the plane. They all had a good time and they had a party on the airplane. They had pizza, soda, candy and lots of food.

When they got there they stayed at the Hampton Inn. They had a party. They played in the pool and jacuzzi. Then they went to their room and talked. They won $5,000 as their prize. After the competition they returned home but remained friends forever.
