In the Water

Here's pictures of us in the pool....

Adelina and me!

Making sure we know what we're doing before we go under...

Scuba!!

The last and most important part of the party was the scuba diving. We went to the same place that Ashlynn and I went and we got a 15 minute lesson before a 45 minute dive. 

Outside the tank before...

It took awhile to get the right size fins for everyone. I never knew my friends had such small feet!

Tye - Dye

L-R: Ellie, Aslynn, Me, Ellie, Lizzy, Daddy, Fiona, Adelina

Just one more activity - in the morning we made our own tye-dye shirts! It was loads of fun, but we forgot to put on the gloves so our hands turned out like......

Pizza and Perfume

We decided that we'd make our own pizzas. Well, Daddy made the pizzas and we decorated them with cheese and more cheese and other toppings. 

Yummy!

Pizza!  Pizza!

Daddy had bought some perfume oils and we mixed them to make our very own scents. 

Happy 13 and half birthday

Because my birthday is in August and we're always in America, I never get a party with my friends from Holland.

So we organized a party, where some of my friends would come over for a sleepover and then we'd do some activities and on Sunday we'd go into town and go Scuba Diving!

Adelina made the cake in the photo above. 

We don't know if it's a frog looking at his crown or if it's a alligator looking at the crown of the frog he just ate.....?

On the 3rd, they came to our school, they had to wear their sports kit so they would fit in. It was really fun!

After lunch we had to present our product to the rest of the students in the exchange and some teachers who were the judges. 

Here is the advert we showed.....

Go Roll-Up!

Dutch Exchange

Adelina, Emilie and I decided we wanted to take part in a Dutch Exchange with a local Dutch school. It turned out that it was for them to learn English instead of us learning Dutch.

On February the 2nd I cycled with Mommy to the Dutch school - Sint Maartens College.We were in a group with Jeroen, Melis, and Pim (all boys). 

We had to come up with a product that could be sold to people our age.

We came up with a Roll-Up laptop!

Called The Roll Up!
