Geography

My Aunt Darcy shared a link on her blog where Jay Leno asks high school students some geography questions. Here is a link to it.

 Geographically Challenged.

My mom thought I might know some of the answers so she asked me the same questions. Here are my answers.

Me answering geography questions.

After I answered the questions I went to look up where the outback is, its in Australia.

Dear Santa

I think that Santa is real. He gives presents, not just to kids, parents can get presents too. He lives in the North Pole.  He has a white beard and a red hat. If kids are good he will give them a present, if they are bad then he will give them rocks. I don’t know what would happen if you didn’t believe in him. The reindeer pull his sleigh. He gets his reindeer from St. Laurence Island in Alaska. I only remember Rudolph's name.

At school we wrote a letter to Santa. This is what I wrote.

 

Dear Santa,

Here are three good things I can do.

1. Listen to my teacher.

2. Treat others kindly.

3. Take turns.

Here are some things that I would love to have for Christmas.

1. Puppy

2. Kitten

3. Map book

4. Camera

5. ipod (it’s a thing that does abc’s and has buttons that control it)

Thank you.

love, Stephen

If you give a dog a hotdog

If you give a dog a hotdog, he will want a bag of chips to go with it.

But then he will realize you don’t have any bags of chips. So you’ll go to Macey’s and buy a bag of chips.

He will wait in the car while you buy a bag of chips. He will wait and wait until he cannot wait any longer.

So he will squeeze through the secret door from the back seat of the car into the truck.

Then he will realize that the car is out of gas. So he will go get a gas can. When he fills the car up with gas he will see you coming with the bag of chips and hotdog.

Then you will drive him back home. And then he will remember he is hungry. So then he will ask you for the bag of chips. And chances are if you give him a bag of chips he will want a hotdog to go with it.

This is the story of If you give a dog a hotdog.

Bedtime story

 

Uncle Daniel wanted to know what story I would tell Kathryn and Parker at bedtime. Here it is.

This is a story about Stephen and his dog Buckler.

Once upon a time Ice Guy kidnapped Kathryn. He has ice powers. He left a note written in ice that he had taken Kathryn and we would never see her again.  Why he kidnapped Kathryn is a mystery. 

Stephen had the storm powers, like storm shark power and thunder snake power.  Buckler has fire powers the are the most dangerous kinds of powers.

Ice Guy lives in a secret world called the Ice World. It has lots of ice caves in it. Ice Guy took Kathryn into the cave that he lives but no one knows which cave is his. 

The passage to Ice World is in Afghanistan.  Stephen Buckler flew on an airplane to the Atlantic Ocean. Then they took a long boat ride across the ocean to, around Africa and landed in India. Then they took another airplane ride to Afghanistan. The secret passage was in a mountain. It was dark in the passage, there was some skeletons and zombies.  There were a lot of holes that went into voids in the passage. Buckler and Stephen used metal boxes to block the zombies, the last door they found led them into Ice World.

There isn’t any snow in Ice World, just ice. There were six ice caves. The first ice cave was Ice Guy’s and they found Kathryn in a cage. It was just big enough for her to fit into sitting down. They saw Ice Guy and he looked pretty scary. Kathryn was going to cry but Stephen and Buckler stayed calm.

“ No need to worry Kathryn!” said Stephen, “My storm powers will help you.”

“ No need to worry Kathryn!” said Buckler, “My fire powers will help you.”

Stephen and Buckler powers worked on Ice Guy. Ice Guy froze them but Stephen’s storm powers melted the ice off him and Bucklers fire power melted the ice off him. Then Stephen used his storm shark power onto ice guy. It really caused some damage for Ice Guy and he started to melt, he was almost all the way melted but not quite. Then Stephen had an idea. He used his thunder snake power, Ice Guy got smaller but still wasn’t melted all the way. Then Buckler had an idea. He used his fire cat power, when Ice Guy touched the fire cat he melted all the way.

Kathryn was still stuck in the cage. Buckler had an idea. Stephen could throw Buckler at the cage and he could use his fire power to burn the cage open and free Kathryn.

They flew back to Provo (backwards from the way they got there) and lived happily every after and Ice Guy was never seen again.

The End

The answers of Darcy’s questions

1. If you were holding a flat head in one hand and a Phillip’s head in the other what would you be holding? 

Giant flat fish and Prince Phillip.

2. Would you rather be able to fly or be invisible?

Be invisible. So I would be protected from bad people, cause they wouldn’t know where I am.

3.How many bites does it take to eat a whole piece of butter bread?

I think it is twelve.

4. What is your five year plan?

Getting a pet. Go to a pet store and buy one. A dog for me and a cat for Kathryn. The dog will have a short tail and a black body. The cat will be white and have a long tail. They will ride in the back of the van when we go somewhere.

5. What does Buckler eat when he is hungry for delicious dessert?

Chocolate vanilla ice cream. He gets it at work when the ice cream man comes. There is a floor in his dog house that goes down and and opens into a tube. The tube takes him to a balcony and down a zip line. That is how he gets to work.

Whale

I wanted to do a post completely by myself. I thought of what to write and typed it all myself.

A whales  teeth is called a whalebone. To breathe, whales use a hole on the top of it’s head called a blowhole. Without a tail, whales can’t splash, so, all whales must have a tail. All whales must eat herrings and tunas, too.

Dad’s birthday list

My dad’s birthday is in October so Mama asked me and Kathryn what we should get him. Here are our ideas.

  • those chocolate nests we made that one time
  • a Princess and the Frog video game
  • a book about things people should stay away from. Some of the things in the book would be tigers, cactuses, monsters and dinosaurs with big claws that eat people.
  • a soft baby doll to sleep with
  • a fan in case he needs some wind
  • a cup to drink out of
  • a Dora cake
  • a book about the anatomy of the universe
  • a good necklace for boys
  • something that will help you with a good thing to do

Which one do you think we should get him?
