Over Thanksgiving break I got some new coon traps. They are dog proof traps, they are made so dogs can not stick their paws in the trap and get caught. The traps are designed so the coon sticks its hand in the trap and tries to pull up to get his hand out and pulls a trigger that lets go a bar that goes on top of the trap and traps the coons hand in the trap. Last year we had about 7 traps this year we have 15. We are going to set them this weekend.

Last week was the conference tournament. We got firs and lost to keytesville and southwest. we lost to keytesville by about six and southwest by 2. I think that we could have beat southwest but dalton cant shoot a basketball to save his life. We were down by three with about thirty seconds left and I made a three, but right after i did they scored again and then again and they won by two. We could not have beat keytesville because they are a really good team. i am glad we got fourth but I wish we couldve got third.

This weekend is turkey season. We are also going to go mushroom hunting and we are going to cook them. I can not wait to go because i really want to kill a turkey. I have killed one turkey and it was a tom but it was not huge. i shot at one last year and i hit it but i think it barely got away. If i do get a turkey i hop that it is a big tom.
i like to hunt a lot unlike mr pauley he likes to rake pictures of things, I think that that is really weird and i don't really understand why he does that. i hunt a lot of things like turkey deer coyotes and i do a lot of trapping. Mushroom s are really good after they are cooked Ji love my grandpas tims mushrooms with ketchup. i eat mushrooms every year with turkey it is one of my favorite things to eat.

Track has just started and it sucks. We run a lot every day after school and its usually a mile every day. My friends and I are running a 4x400 and I think we are pretty good. I might be doing the long jump but I know i am doing the 400 by my self. I hope that it is warm for the track meets. I also hope that we get to miss school during a track meet. our first track meet is next Friday. I am really excited for our first track meet

WE lost the district championship to Tina. i think that we should have won but the refs were horrible. Tina is a good team but i think that we could have done better that night. We were in foul trouble the whole game so we couldn't do anything on defense so we had to let them score. Chris fouled out and so did Devin. Tina went on to loose to Meadville. Meadville is really good and there was no doubt that they were going to win. I am proud of our team and I hope we do good next year. My brother did good the last half of the season, he got 27 points one games and 24 the next.

Last night we played Mercer and we lost both games. The boys almost won but came out short. The girls were blew out of the water and lost by like fifty. Mercer is a really good team and we knew we were going to loose. It was senior night and it was my sisters last home game. The dance squad danced at the half time of the boys game. Next week is districts and they are in Tina, i hope we win something.

The Super Bowl is this weekend and the Seahawks and the Broncos are playing. I think that the Broncos will win because of their great quarterback Peyton Manning. The Broncos are very good and i think that they will be the next Superbowl winners. The seahawks are good to but their quarter back Russel Wilson is not as talented as experienced as Peyton Manning. The game will be awesome and exciting. I hope that the game has miracles like the interception the seahawks had on the 49ers. I can't wit for the Super Bowl and I want to see a good game.

This week is court warming and we are doing the little rascals. Me and tug are going to be in a race car and matt and abbey are going to be in a boat. We are going to hit a bulldog because that is the other teams mascot. WE are going to have matt sing to abbey. I am going to dress up as spanky. I hope that we win but i think it will be hard.
