What Kind of American English Do You Speak?

Hi! Since the last time we updated we've made a few changes to our blog. We changed our template, we got a ticker, and we got a word cloud. BTW- If you're ever thinking about changing your template, there's some really nice ones at - www.blogger-templates.blogspot.com

Yesterday we went walking around this really nice park in Bangor. It was really fun. Then we went shopping for a new computer desk. Plus, last night we went walking around the duck pond in Newtownards with David and his family. After that they came back to our house for a while.

We did school today. And also today I was designing a leaflet for David's presentation in June.

We'll soon be getting ready to eat dinner and then get ready to go to church.

On Thursday we'll be having a bbq with some friends from our church.

I better go for now,

Grace

The Weather, Soil, and Plant life in Ireland

The weather in Ireland is mostly cloudy and rainy. The average temperature is 56 degrees. Ireland grows mainly potatoes. The planting season in Ireland is February and March.

Because of the temperature is Ireland, most foods are imported.

The soil is very rich, brown dirt.

Hi, everyone! We have been pretty busy lately. Yesterday, we went to Shatley Springs and ate breakfast, then we went to a cheese factory in West Jefferson, and then walked on a trail on a mountain near there. It was a lot of fun! Next week, we will be flying back to Belfast next Tuesday and get back on Wednesday morning. Lydia

Today, we went to the Lazy 5 Ranch. We went with our Mamaw, Papaw, and some more of our family . There was 14 of us altogether. It was a really neat place. We got to go on a hour long wagon ride. We got to pet a lot of animals. Grace fed a giraffe! I will put more about it soon. Well we are grilling out right now. So I'd better go for now. Lydia

Hi, sorry we have not been posting. We have been gone since Saturday and got back yesterday evening. We have been to Virginia. We went to Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown victory center. They were really neat. Thank you everyone for the birthday comments. Grace and I had really good birthdays. We will be posting pictures when we get back to Newtownards. Well I'd better go for now.
