My Dream House

Sorry this has been a long time, sorry for the hold up.  Not long ago my friend showed me this website about a Lego competition.  I was very excited!  You have to build your dream house, and it goes for three months and every month they pick a winner.  Every three months they pick a new topic.  So here is a photo of the house during the competition.  It is a three story house with a glass roof at the top.

Leave a comment about what you think.  Thanks

3D Windmill

 This was a present given to me at my birthday.  It is a 3D puzzle windmill.  It took me about thirty minutes to complete.  I thought it was very fun and exciting.  So I thought sharing these pictures with you would help you get a feel of what it is.

Outside Photos

Over the year I have been taking photos.  These were really epic ones that I took and thought you would like them.

This photo was a really interesting one, I thought.

Dad wanted me to lift this BIG tree.  I did it, but it was HEAVY!

Graham

After finishing history with Sarah, I picked a subject that we learned in history and wrote a story about it!  Billy Graham is the paper!

Billy Graham

Raised in a godly Christian home, Billy Graham went on to have a full life of ministry and influence the world.  In 1918 Billy Graham was born in Charlotte, North Carolina, and he grew up on his parents’ dairy farm.  His parents were William Franklin and Morrow Coffey Graham.  At age fifteen he gave his life to Jesus Christ.  Billy Graham attended Bob Jones College in Tennessee where he graduated.  Sunday night, March 28, 1937, Graham preached his first sermon.  After he moved to Wheaten, Illinois, he continued to speak there. All of Graham’s early life experiences made him into a great man of faith.

Billy Graham was a missionary. Every day he looked for people who needed help and talked face to face with them about the Lord.  To prepare for his talk, he memorized a paragraph from another preacher’s sermon and then practiced the paragraph out loud to himself.  He passionately reached out to people with sad hearts and talked about the Lord.  He spoke through television and in stadiums.  Billy Graham traveled through America and also toured Europe for a time, continuing his mission work. 

Billy Graham’s parents influenced him more than anybody, and their example led to his impact on the nations. Of all the people in his life, his mom influenced him the most by praying for him every morning at ten o’clock.  Billy Graham also spoke with Barack Obama about the Lord.  Obama said that Billy Graham impacted him so much that he became a Christian.  His preaching was so powerful that it reached over three million hurting hearts.  After World War II, Billy Graham preached at Chicago’s Soldier Field to a crowd of sixty-five thousand people.  He has influenced many of the presidents of the United States. No one in the past century has surpassed the achievements of Billy Graham for the kingdom of God.

South Bank

Hi everyone!  After one of our friends came over, Mrs. Nichols, we had a great time and went to South Bank.  We really enjoyed it!  So I grabbed my camera and took some photos.  Some of these are macro, just because I like macro!  :) Enjoy!

History

Sarah has been teaching me history lessons over the past year, and we just finished today!!  :)  So Sarah celebrated with a party!!!

Before the party I finished my last history lesson!!!

She took me outside with my eyes closed.  It was pretty scary from  my point of  view!

Then we  shot some poppers in the air and that was fun!!!

Holiday

Sorry for the long wait!!  My forgiveness!  Well going back to the blog not long ago my sister and my mom went to Los Angeles for a holiday.  The boys, dad and I were by ourselves. I am going to show you a little of what we did while my mom and sister were gone.   We definitely  watched a lot of movies, and of course did school!!  Also we set up our ping pong table in the family room, and played lots of matches!!  Here are some pictures th!!

Mom and my sister had great fun in LA.  They went to Disneyland, Hollywood, Universal Studios and many other places!!  They also visited a lot of our friends and relatives.  Hope you enjoyed it!!

Lego Robotics

Lately I went to a robotics class with some of my friends.  It was very fun and exciting, to work all together on one robot.  Since we have robotics, I started to make a robot myself.  At the bottom you will see a few pictures of the robot I made and a story about it.  Hope you enjoy it!

Building a Lego robot, which takes a lot of time, includes many steps.  First, gather up all the necessary pieces for the robot and understand how it works.  Next, follow the directions and do exactly what it says.  When finished building, program the robot on the computer to tell it what to do.  Operate it to see if it works, and if not find out the problem.  It brings great satisfaction to have a working robot after all the tough work.

My brother helps me a lot on building Lego robotics.  Sometimes I struggle to follow instructions, but he helps me figure it out.  When we work together, we build up our relationship.  Each time my brother helps me gain greater confidence with my skills and myself.  We have loads of fun working out problems.  Usually, he is the one who fixes it.  Building robotics has strengthened our relationship and given us lots of time together.
