state finals chess tournament

I went to a chess tournament on Saturday.

First I lost to 782. Then I beat 551! And then I beat 582. And then I lost to 936. It was so much fun there! There was a room where there were huge chess pieces. I got to play Caleb with them. It was so cool!

My friend Jeremiah got a muffin with his $1.00. At the end of the tournament I got a fourth place trophy. It was really big. I was so excited!

Thursday at Hannah's

I got to pick up the chickens when I went to Hannah's house yesterday. They were so cute! We made up a game called John and John. We pretend that we are John and John and that we are twins. We pretend that we ran away from the orphanage and the Indians are after us. What we do is we hide from the boys and we pretend they're Indians! We run away from them. And we play on the big rocks- that's our fort. Sometimes we pretend to get caught. And then we go inside and play with our dolls. It's so much fun! My dolls' names are Molly and Polly- they're twins. Hannah's doll's name is Sally. She makes clothes for her dolls. They are so cute!
