It was a warm sunny day and wasn’t a fun day for Stanley Yelnats. In the book holes by John Steinback he tells about a child's life and how one little thing can turn into a big disaster Disappointments grow as he was convicted to stealing NBA all-star player’s shoes that he had stolen. He was packed and ready to go to as he had a choice to go to jail or Camp. Finally the day had come he went to Camp Green Lake. Spending some time at a Camp didn’t seem so bad but he didn’t know what he got himself into. So he’s wondering what will he do what will happen?
All throughout his child hood he hasn’t done anything like this, but his grandfather is the man of crime. While Stanley had started to get there he realized it wasn’t the Camp he thought it was it was tore ruse and nonstop digging. The warden was the one in charge of it all. Stanley learned she was looking for something. Everyone there is there for a bad thing that they had did. Feelings of hate, sweat, and digging for unknown treasure. After he found out that he would work every day all day he got really tried and thirsty. There were so many other people there digging five foot wide by feet deep holes in the barren waste land of he once biggest lake is Texas.
While the pain of digging was hard and barren the warden was always watching them and their moves along the area. The Lake seemed so big and goes on, and on forever. The warden wants he boys to “build character”. With so many other kids there he thought it would take a while but it took forever. While Stanley was digging he had found some lip-stick. Even though Stanley family has been cursed for generations he has a bright future hopefully! Stanley had made a new friend called Zero. While he makes friends with him zero runs away! When he goes to look for him, when he finally finds him and goes back to look for treasure.
Although digging holes is a pain Stanley is released from Camp because of a case file that he didn’t steal the shoes. Stanley was thrilled that he had left but he will miss his friend Zero but he is thrilled. He never wants to go back there and will have a great life. It was finally good to go back home and not have to worry about digging holes and working in the heat. All through this story Stanley realized that always think before doing is what I think he’s thinking and don’t do things that might get you in trouble that you will end up in the place Stanley Yelnats was.

The big game of the year the Superbowl. Its the time of year for the two best teams in the NFL battle for the number one seat the Superbowl Champions. I predict that the score will be 27-31 Packers Victory. On Sunday the players will rise and the big team will battle it out in the Dallas Stadium of over 100,000 thousand people will be in it. My statement is that the pack will win and the story of the Superbowl.
In Superbowl it will be intense of Aaron Rodgers and the other one. In this match up it will be one of the best Superbowl's even played. While this will be going to people from all over the U.S. will stay tuned and watch the greatest match in history. About the Green Bay Packers it has been a long but well deserved spot in the 2011 Superbowl, although they have some key injury's the team is strong and will win the XLV Bowl. There backup personal people have been doing great and exceeding the other teams in the NFL. In there past superbowls they have won 3 of there 4 times they have been in the so they have a good chance of winning the game.

Snow Day
It was a beautiful calm winter day Monday January 31 and until mid-night. The biggest winter storm 10 years and the people of Pewaukee were glad that they might get a snow day for the kids. While the weather men got the news that the big storm was on its way they had predicted more and more snow each time. When the forecast was clear and not changing there it was the snow fall totals.
When the snow had started to fall the kids were wondering how long will it go. It kept on coming 18-24 inches of the white stuff. It meant great joy to most people. The adults were staking up for to big one and stared to hurry so they wouldn't miss out the snow there life. Once it started it didn't stop people were hurray and joy to mother nature. All they wanted it a day to play and not not have school to have fun instead of learn, just one day that's all they wanted and will the school give it to them and that's their choose and the children wait, wait and wait. Till the school will shutdown and be closed for a day.
They waited and waited till it would happen and hours went by and they were so anxious to see the school down and one more day to be free. Finally in the morning they see the school is closed and another day to be free and enjoy the snow while it will stay and happy days till the next day. The people were happy with the one day off and it was fun to finally be off. The very next day it was back and now they hope for another white night.
