2. How old are you? Have you ever been to a luau? Well I had a luau for my 7 th b-day! I woke up Wednesday August 3, 2008 and my mom told me happy birthday, but my dad woke me up at 12:00 in the night because he thinks I am his princess!

3. So, now I am at the luau party I was having so much fun!! I was playing hotputoow,tag, freeze tag and hide and go seek. The tree where I was hiding at was like 3 yards long! I smelt sea water and fresh air. I tasted the air and the fresh water in my mouth. I heard the people yelling in my ear and the waves.

4. I loved my birthday a lot it was so much FUN!!! My mom and dad surprised me. They brought a horse to the beach where I was having my luau party! WOW! Would you be surprised? I was shocked! There was one problem though, No Horses Allowed. I was sad and angry too.

5. I got so angry so I told my mom and she said don’t be angry or sad. So my mom and I made a pact to go see the horse when we left! I jumped up with excitement! I muttered to my self and said, “I love you mom”!! The cake finally arrived. My cake was so vivid! I truly could not wait to bite into it. It was my favorite cake in the world.

6. My mom then yelled, “It is game time”! She let me choose the game and I choose jump rope. I won, I jumped 30 times. My friends jumped 15, 20, 11, and 25 times. Afterwards, my mom served juice and food and also I had rice and beans, salad, and potato salad. Do you like that? When we were done eating my mom said, “piñata time”! I went first and I missed. So my cousin went and she hit it I was so happy for her!
