Yikes

Right after I posted the trampoline entry, my brother and sisters and I went outside on the trampoline. There were rain clouds in the sky, but nothing was falling from them. So we decided to camp outside. We played around for a while, and then ate. Then we got the tent out. As we were getting the tent out, it started to sprinkle. No big deal right? We tried putting up the tent, but after a half hour of sprinkles, everything was wet. So were we. We tried to work under the tarp, but that didn't turn out well. The rain had escalated from a sprinkle to mild rainfall.

Mia got the idea of getting big yellow hooks to hold down the tent, and ran in to get some. I put the tarp on as she went to go get them. The mild rainfall was now a mediocre downpour and we where were drenched. We hammered them in as quick as we could, and finally got the tent up. Nani and Ben ran inside as Mia and I finished up. When we finally went to check inside the tent, it was wet.

Discouraged, we went inside, and got Nani and Ben in the shower. I went upstairs to get my brother some clothes. Mia just finished her shower. The mediocre downpour is now a thunder storm, and I'm sitting here, wet, typing on the computer. (there's something wrong here.) I'm going to go take a shower. Bye.

Trampoline

Guess what? I got a new tramp on Thursday! I've been on it every spare moment of the day. It's a lot of fun. Accept, it's incredibly easy to get hurt on it. Ben, Mia, and one of Ben's friends where playing on the tramp, and we where trying to do rap moves. Bad idea. I tried doing something on my head, but missed and cracked my neck. I swear the crack was so loud, it could have been a fire cracker. It hurt so bad. I lay on the tramp, not able to move my neck with my right arm paralyzed. And Ben's friend kept jumping around. I had to slide on my back to the side of the tramp, and wait till I could move again. It's better today. You need to be really careful on those things. Well, I'll be posting a lot more. School just got out, so I'm free this week. I'm so glad. A couple more days in school, and I would have died. I'll post later. Bye.
