Tornado

  tornado windyToday, my sister and I are going to my grandma’s work. She works at a church it’s really fun because they just remolded it and there is now a gym and Mackenzie and I play volley ball with a volley ball. We also play soccer, basketball, and softball. We also like to run around in the gym.

Now, we are home well at my grandma’s house and we are going to watch a movie. The movie is like really weird. Today is Wednesday so they are testing the tornado siren. It goes off once and then another time. Like five minutes later it goes off again. Now we change it to the news and there is a tornado warning for Sarpy County. My grandma tells us to go down stairs to the basement and go under the stairs where we usually go when there is a tornado. But when we tried to go under the stairs there were tables and chairs so we had to move them into the hallway. We also got blankets to go on the floor and on our laps. We were in the basement for like almost three hours or maybe longer. The news was saying that the tornado had DROPPED!!!!!!!  I hate tornados so I like freak out when I hear a siren. But I was actually pretty calm which is surprising my sister was proud of me and I was pretty proud of me too. The tornado was coming towards Sarpy County so my grandma was telling us to get in the position when a tornado comes. So of course I did and the siren kept going off and I was really scared now and my grandma was upstairs where there are tons and tons of windows in her house I was grandma get down stairs. Which she did. The tornado went back up so nothing was damaged in Sarpy which I was totally thankful for. The next morning I woke up and I look in the backyard and a huge tree feel down and that tree was really important too us because we planted in honor of my great grandma and my grandmas mom. So what we did was plant a new tree for my grandpa that died and my great grandma Wilma.

Dance Nationals

This summer my sister Mackenzie is going too Dance Out Nationals yikes! No I’m kidding she did amazing! I was so astonished by how good she did. Especially because 1) she was the only one in her division that was 13 2) she always competes in novice which is first year competitors and didn’t compete in novice this time so 3) she placed 4th in the all-around division. Hey wait, I haven’t even told you what had happened while she was getting prepared for the competition that weekend.
It all started with …..Friday night and I’m going to spend the night at my friend’s house for her birthdays were going to Worlds of Fun! Yah I’m so excited. But the story is not about me it’s about Mackenzie. She is really nervous and I know why it’s because I’m going to be there and when I’m there she always does her best and I’m always very encouraging to her and I’m always the loudest one in the room so that’s pretty cool.
Today is Saturday June 27th the day of the competition she was really excited and nervous. I woke up this morning its 7:30 and I’m planning on calling her to wish her good luck because I know she’ll do awesome! Which when I called she wasn’t awake of course she loves to sleep, who doesn’t? I mean come on I love to sleep. She woke up at like at 8:30 and my mom told her that I wanted to wish her good I think that’s what made her do amazing probably not but oh well.

My Grandpa

About three years ago my grandpa Leon was diagnosed with skin cancer. I was in Kansas City at my house and we had gotten a call from my grandma Judy, she told us grandpa was diagnosed with skin cancer. I was so upset, scared, and, mad.
About two weeks later we came to Nebraska. My grandma had put plastic covers on the couches and the chairs and I don’t really remember why though I think they were so that no one would get sick. When we got there my grandpa was at the hospital. We were there for a week and I barely got to see my grandpa when we where there. So I wasn’t aloud too see him because it was an adult hospital and kids weren’t aloud. I was mad that I couldn’t see my own grandpa and for just a few minutes. I now hate hospitals that don’t let kids in. But later that week he got out of the hospital finally I get to see him but no I still didn’t get to see him because he was in his room the whole time, and I stayed at my other grandmas house the whole time but he came out sometimes and I got to see him but he just sat down the whole time and he barley talked but I understood why.
The next day my parents were at my grandpa Leon’s house and they called and said that they were going to take us out for breakfast to my favorite breakfast place in town called Village Inn. But they never showed up. My sister Mackenzie and I and my aunt Jaymi went to my grandma’s hair salon and talked for about an hour and read magazines. After that we went shopping I think we also went to see a movie. I have no idea what movie we saw though I wish would remember but, I can’t. While we were shopping the only thing I could think of was where are my parents and, why didn’t they call or text. I was so scared that something might had happen to my grandpa I didn’t even enjoy going shopping or too see a movie. Then we went out for lunch at a diner called The Hollywood Diner. I got the cheesy cheesy Mac& cheese with a .DrPepper and French fries. Yummy!!!
After we were done eating we went back home to my aunt Jaymi’s house we watched TV. A couple hours later my mom and dad finally show up and have us come sit on the couch, I kept saying what, what, what’s wrong? My mom starts tearing up and, I said what happened my mom says the reason why we didn’t go out to breakfast is because this morning grandpa died. I start crying so hard and couldn’t believe it I was so upset. I couldn’t stop crying at all I was crying for three hours straight. My mom and dad were cuddling me and my sister. I can’t believe it. My brother didn’t get to hear the news he was a sleep. The next day it got a little better. I was still crestfallen and we also had to go back to Gardner the next day we went to my grandma’s salon to get our hair done for our dance recital. My aunt Jenny did my hair because my grandma had a lady there getting hair done. A couple hour’s later my hair was done and both my grandma and grandpa were in our car with our suit cases and Mackenzie, Jack, dad, mom, and I were all in the car. It was a smooth ride home and the recital went great. The funeral was the same day as the dance recital. We manage to go to both.when we got back home to get ready for the dance recital I felt a lot better and I have never rejected the fact that iIneed to get over it but I still know that every day he’s watching over me. I love you grandpa!

It’s My Future

Hi, my name is Hadley and I would like to be a teacher when I grow up. I feel like I would make a very excellent teacher because I listen, I pay attention in class so I would know stuff and, I respect people. I also get straight A’s which will help me. For collage I would like to go to Nebraska University. I want to go there because I would be closer to all my family and I hear they have great teachers. Also I want to be a husker’s cheerleader. Which for seventh grade I am trying out for cheer leading so; if I am a cheerleader it will help me in the future.
