My Outside Home

When you are with the best people in your life anything can happen. You make some great memories that you will always remember. In the house that you are living in, you will always fit in. I tricked you! I’m not going to tell you about that because everyone else will. I am going to tell you about my family and home during this bad but good pandemic. My family are big sports fans and when it got shut down everything changed. We were stuck at home and could not find anything to do. So I taught my younger brother how to play catch, throw a frisbee, and shoot baskets. My family was almost always out of the house doing something we loved to do together. We recently got a new pool and we swam in it all the time. It was a big part of our house. My younger sister got an idea to get a karaoke machine so we could have other stuff to do so we went on YouTube and looked up fun karaoke songs and we did that all the time after that. In the summer time, our family hiked over 500 km in places like Shakespeare pond, Old Grove and Wildwood, and so many other places. We were lucky to always come home to a nice warm bed. Our family made lots of memories inside and outside the house. There were many emotions shown during these hard times. I was very affected because I couldn’t play sports or see my friends, but it brought me, my younger brother and sister closer than ever. That's what I wanted to talk to you about.
