Hey! My picture is when me and my dad were on a rollercoster when I was 7. This means a lot to me because I lived in Scotland and that picture was in the summer time, so I had to wait another year to see him! Plus that was the only picture I had of him! It was so sad for me! Now of corse I'm living in Hebron now, so, I'm not so sad.

At my house i have a picture of a house. Not just any house, my old house. Sometimes this pink bricked house makes me want to cry. I remember our tree house and our huge back yard filled with flowers and plant. I also remember my room,the room with a tree painted on the wall. There was many things that I miss and I want at that house. The thing I miss the most is my huge basement with a playground in it. My old house reminds me of many things.

My picture is when I moved away from my old neighborhood. I had to leave my best friend behind and I don't get to see her very much anymore. Well atleast I found a new best friend that I get to see two or more times a week. I love playing with her. I am sad that we moved away and that I don't get to see her anymore, but I am also happy I found a new best friend to play with.

Hollis Woods Blog is going to be so much fun! Do you think so?!?!

Does anyone know why the book is called hollis woods?

Mrs. B said...

Good observation MMM! They did all write about moving. That's interesting and goes along well with the story you are about to read. Hollis gets shuffled around a lot.

A picture that stands out in my mind is my husband's senior picture. HE HAD LONG HAIR! We're talking as long as SR's hair! Anyway, it reminds me of the fact that he's been in my life for as long as I can remember.

Keep blogging!

Pictures discride everything that you can see. Like if there was a picture of you planting seeds, they person looking at the picture can see what you are doing. Also some pictures discribe you and your feelings too.

HELLO WONDER BREAD AND MUSTARD LOVING FANS OF HOLLIS WOODS.It's the mustard lady, the lemon lady, and the wonder bread children. All of my stuff I sent earlier got deleted so I’ll say it again. Moving is the saddest thing in life. You lose your friends and your beautiful (if it was pretty) house. But, now that I moved I have new friends like this whole group. Where BFF. Having a pink bricked house is cool but having friends is cooler. If that answers your comment SR. Hey SR you make me laugh so hard my head blew-up!!! Also Mrs.B same thing, my head blew-up!! That reminds me of a time when MCT and I went to after school French and there was this other kid there to. I made the kid and MCT laugh so hard that the other kid started crying. Not to be mean or anything, but you can admit that that was funny. I also think they laughed for a year. Like a kid that had the hiccups for four weeks. That’s not funny because after awhile it would start hurting.
MMM,
I used to live in Loveland, Ohio. Also the brick was pink. Oh ya!! I just finished two chapters. Im going to finish the rest tomorrow. I think this is the best book ever. I like it so much im still blogging at 9:30 at night. Im getting a little tired but when im typing im wide awake. Its like im addicted to the blog. IM NEVER COMING OFF!!!!!!!!! NEVER!!!!! EVER!!! COMING!!!!! OFF!!!!!!! Well I guess ill never come off but sleep well anyway!! SWEET DREAMS!!

Mrs. B said...

You guys are cracking me up!!! First of all, why the obsession with WTC's old house?? It's really funny.

I am glad you LOVE the blog. Here's a question for you SR-why do you like the book so far? What about it is making you want to read ahead (which by the way I cannot keep you from doing, but would like you to refrain from if at all possible)?

Also, maybe you should mention all of the blogging you are doing to MCT at school. She was busy tonight-bb ball party, but I know she would want to be involved with this!

Keep blogging!

Well I think it will be nice to talk to MCT. Ill talk to her.

Hey everyone, happy, I am blogging! Does that make you happy mmm, sr, and wtc? I think the book is awesome! I have one question, why does it have two or three chapters titled "the time Josie"? I think Hollis is a great artist what about you? I am sorry I have not been on lately, but seriously who stays up until 9:30 pm and who gets on at 6:25 am! You are crazy! You people need to get more sleep! :) Well anyways I had a b-ball party last night (and by the way we creamed the parents in the game AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!) Well bye for now!
