3. Rough Draft of Paragraph- Due Wednesday
My Amazing Weekend By: Mrs. Rea You will never guess the amazing weekend I had with my family. First, we went to Blake’s Cider Mill. My daughter Morgan was so excited to get to go on a Pony ride. We of course also had the best cider and donuts! Second, we had a bonfire at our neighbors house. All the kids in the neighborhood love to tell scary stories around it. It is only two doors down so it is nice to be close to home also. Third, we went out to dinner at a restaurant called Loccino Italian Grill. They have the best bread and dipping sauce. I got my favorite Eggplant there. We had a Groupon so we saved money too! These three things were so amazing to do with my family over the weekend.

My Fun Filled Weekend
By: Mrs. Rea
You will never guess what fun filled things I did this weekend! First, we got to experience Blake’s Cider Mill for the first time. My daughter Morgan was so excited to go on a pony ride. She smiled the whole time. We of course also had the best cider and donuts!! Second, we had a bonfire at my neighbors house. They live only two doors down so it is right out our backdoor. All the kids love to tell scary stories around the warm inviting fire. Third, we went out to dinner at an Italian restaurant called, Loccino Italian Grill. They have the best bread and dipping sauce. I usually get filled up from just eating that. I ordered my favorite, Eggplant. We also had a Groupon so we saved money too. These three activities were a lot of fun to do with my family over the weekend.
