My performance

Two and a half years ago, when I was three, I had a dance class. At the performance I received a trophy, and my mom gave me flowers. The types of dance that I learned were ballet and tap. My favorite was tap. Some of the moves that I remember from ballet are called arabesque, courtsy (it's like a bow), plie, and rond de jambe.

Now when I listen to music, I dance around the room in our house.

DJ has a big plane

When we were down in Anchorage visiting DJ and Christine, DJ took us to the Air Force Base where he works. Connor and I got to go under the plane he flies; it is called the C17. It was VERY big! It was fun to see the inside of it, too. In the inside, there was a back space that had lots of seats.

Connor Drives Samantha

A week and a half ago, DJ and Christine were with us in Cantwell. We went on a hike one day to RCA hill. We brought our 4-wheeler. After some other people got a turn to ride it, Daddy got on the back with me, and Connor was in the front driving. Dad got off of the 4-wheeler after we went down a big hill. Then, Connor drove me back to the truck by ourselves! I had lots of fun. I told Connor that now I can trust him to drive me on the 4-wheeler by ourselves. It was awesome! He drove very safely.

Fun with DJ and Christine

Last weekend, we were visiting some of our family that live in Anchorage. They are my Uncle DJ and Aunt Christine. When Mom and Dad were out doing something together, Connor and I were with DJ and Christine. We went to a place called All Fired Up, where we got to paint. I chose two things, a dog and an angel that's holding a star. Connor painted one big thing; it was a wolf standing on top of a den and inside were its cubs. After you paint an item, you turn it in to the people that work there. Then they put it into a machine and heat up the glaze. After it is done, they are going to be very shiny. Before it was fired, the colors were very dull. I am going to like it when they are shiny. It was fun!
