Mindstorms

So my brother got a Mindstorms for Christmas. He made EV3 and we tried to make him go from the dining room to the kitchen but there were to many bumps and he could not go over them.
But when we introduced him to Sophie are dog we made him try to shoot her so she was afraid of him and always ran away from him. After a while we took him apart and me and my dad made the R3PTAR. He could strike with his fangs, move backwards, move forwards, and he could rattle. When we introduced him to Sophie she remembered the EV3 and she was a little afraid but she sometimes went close by him. But we made him strike at her and she was Terrified! Then she always ran away from him because she knew what was coming. Then we made the TRACK3R we made him go close by her and she remembered all of the other robots and she always ran away.

We programmed the EV3 to count to ten and sing angels we have heard on high. We programmed the TRACK3R to go around the house, but we didn't program the R3PTAR. The R3PTAR is controlled using a touch senser, The EV3 is controlled by touching the buttons to go forward backwards and to shoot. The TRACK3R is cool you push up on the tracks on your i touch on all of them. You just need to know that I love MINDSTORMS!

Big snowstorm

There was a big snowstorm this week there is about 5 ft of snow out in my backyard. We shovel it and throw it in big mounds of snow and it grows to about 7 ft of snow!
We tried playing soccer in the snow but it was very deep and we could barely walk in it, the snow almost reached the cross bar of out soccer goal!
We sometimes went on top of the roof and shoveled it off. i went on the garage roof by putting the a sled on top of the big mounds of snow on the back of the garage and stood up on the sled and pulled myself on top of the roof! Me and my brother shoveled the garage roof. (It was fun jumping off the roofs). Me and my dad threw my dog (Sophie) her tennis ball in the big mound of snow and she did a running jump and got the tennis ball. My grandpa went with his snow-blower and helped put it on top of the big mounds.
Most of the day though we stay inside by the warm fire and learn:)

Tennis players

I'am really into tennis I've got a fast serve it goes about 60-70 kph.I'am working on my backhand but my forehand is pretty good. I like Novak  Djokuvic he is from Serbia. I also like Rafael Nadal he is from Spain. There is this guy named Andy Roddick he has a really fast serve it goes 225kph (150mph). It is the fastest serve in the world. He is from the United states of America. Nadal has a great forehand and Djokuvic also has a good forehand. John Mac Enroe has a good volley. He has $12,547,797 for prize money. I want to get a serve 100 kph but that would take a few years.

The New Planet

So one day in planet they called Soruu, Jack a baby 1 yr old had one sentence, it was "feed me". His mom and dad were lots older. His dad was 27 and his mom was 24 (each year you get a new sentence). So each time little jack was hungry he would say "feed me", he was always hungry. They lived in the place called Spave, there were a lot of family's in Spave. They were animals. One day on the planet Soruu there was this big vehicle that landed and made a lot of sound.There were weird looking people with big white suits coming out of the vehicle.(They were holding a flag it had a lot of stars on it and was striped with red and white). The animals had there guardians though they were teenagers. They put out there battle cry " for the animals". They were carrying rocks, (they were really strong they held rocks twice there size!) They threw them as far as they could they hit the Weird looking people some fell down some ran back to the vehicle. They chased after them they threw them at the SPACESHIP! That is what it was, they hit the spaceship but right then the people ran away.

Walnut Bread

So I found this new recipe. Here are the ingredients,

6 1/2 cups whole wheat flour,
1 cup chopped walnuts,
15 grams yeast,
2 tbsp poppy seeds,
2 tbsp sesame seeds,
2 tbsp sunflower seeds,
3 cups lukewarm water,
2 tsp salt
and also canola oil for greasing and a couple of bread pans

Mix the seeds, flour, yeast, salt, and the walnuts in a big mixing bowl.
When fully mixed add the water, stir till it turns to be a soft dough.
Put it on a lightly floured surface and knead for 4-6 minutes.
Put the bread back in the bowl and put it by a warm place and let it rise for 1-1 1/2 hours.
When it has doubled in size take it onto the flour surface and knead it for 1-2 minutes.
Then meanwhile grease the the bread pans.
When done kneading cut the thing in two and knead for one more minute.
Then put them in the bread pans and put them in the oven and a temperature at 450 degrees and a timer for half an hour. If they are starting to burn put the temperature.

My dad ate a sandwich from the bread I made today and said it was delicious.
