Kings Dominion

Posted in Blog on July 12th, 2022 by Christi Reed

On May 28th, 2022, we went to Kings Dominion. My mom, sister, 2 of my friends, and I went together.  We met up with others from the assembly and we talked with some of the them at Starbucks. Then we went to find a small roller coaster, Woodstock’s Express because 3/5 of us had never been on a roller coaster. I was one of the 3 and it was super fun!  Woodstock Express was a 3/5 so it was a good one to start with. Then we rode on some of the Snoopy rides. We went to the jungle themed area and rode the Anaconda, that one was super fun and my friend Dani passed out on the ride. It was a 5/5. We got in line for Twisted Timbers but then the ride stopped with people at the top and an employee said that there was a temporary delay on the roller coaster so we went to ride on the Delirium and Bad Apples. After that we went and got some pretzels and waters.

Dani played a game where she had to throw the coin on the glass plate under all the stuffed animals. She got one on and won a rainbow monkey she named Richard. Stella and Frani also won smaller stuffed animals from playing other games. It was 9 minutes until they closed.  So, we went on our last ride, the drop tower as the fireworks were going off. Frani and I went on it. We went higher than the fireworks and when we dropped back down to the ground the tree nearby shook due to the winds from the drop tower. A couple people got off because they were scared but he asked us if we wanted to go again and we said yes.  The view was yet again gorgeous! As we got off the fireworks stopped, and we played some more games as we were leaving, I spent my money on a Snoopy hoodie. And we picked up some other souvenirs. It was a fun trip and so exciting I would go again!

What Hope means to me

Posted in Blog on July 12th, 2022 by Christi Reed

What hope means to me is to believe and trust something or someone. Hope means to me is to never give up on that something or someone. Hope is important in everyone’s life. Having hope in someone is to put your heart in their hands. To have hope in something is to put your heart in the belief of it. Hope is when you wish that something occurs. Hope is the idea of something happening. Hope is a dream you wish that will come true. Hope is aspiration and ambition.  Hope is love.

What charity means to me

Posted in Blog on July 12th, 2022 by Christi Reed

What charity means to me is to give instead of receiving. Charity is when you give knowing you aren’t going to get anything back. Charity means you give because you want to do better in the world. Charity is giving, not because you get anything but because of the goodness in your heart. Charity is being unselfish and kind to others and yourself. Charity is helping other people in your community without being asked and without a complaint. Charity is doing what’s right not because you hope you get something back but because you have that feeling of complete and joy in helping to make the world a better place.
