April Letter

Dear Family & Friends,

Hello!  I am on a flag football team.  My teammates are Max, Alek, Camden, Colden, Holden, Peyton, Tryzden, Dallin, Garrett and Aiden.  Our first game we won by a lot.  I like flag football.  I've got a great team and it's really fun!  And I have a team that listens really good.

We had a Easter egg hunt at my house.  The littler kids got their own kind of eggs.  Some of the big kids got to hide the eggs.  I really loved it.  I had all my cousins be there.  We got to all have bubbles.  I liked playing with them.

I got my purple belt.  I used to be a green belt.  I am taking a break from karate right now.  I kind of felt bad from taking a break but now I am pretty good now with only football.

I had my birthday in April!!  I invited Alek, Alex, Peter, Kyson, Kohen, Andy and Tanner to my party.  We had a ultimate dodge ball game on the tramp at my party.  We had a fire and we roasted marshmallows and had smores.  And we roasted hot dogs.  And we had a weenie roast.

 I got a kindle from my mom & dad!  I got to play on it.  I've got My Singing Monsters on it and Planets vs. Zombies and Dragons: Rise of Berk and lots of other fun games.  We played a little bit of soccer which I got five new soccer balls.  My friends really know I like soccer!!!  That's why I got 5 soccer balls.

I am really having fun with my friends Alek, Tanner, Kohen and Kyson at school.  We usually play soccer.  They are really good at it.  My favorite subject in school is math.  I like playing with my brothers and also my friends that are not in my school class.  I have so much fun with them.

March Letter

Dear Family & Friends,

Hello!  I went to a Friendship Tournament and West Coast World Martial Arts.  I won a good job medal in traditional forms and I got Gold medal in board breaking.  Me and someone in my class tied for gold.  Her name is Claire.  Karate is a fun sport to learn how to defend yourself.

I love St Patrick's Day.  This month we went to a St Patrick's Day parade and we got to be in the parade.  We threw out suckers to the crowd.  We got to see the mascot for the ReAL soccer team. And sometimes he would do backflips off the car.  It was so fun being in the parade.

I love Aunt Melissa!  She always throws good Easter parties for me.  She always gives us pattern eggs that we get to find and then we just get to find plain eggs and this month we got to find our own stuffed animal bunny.  I picked purple.  My pattern egg was race cars.  I had so much fun!  We ate dinner there and we got to play with our cousins.  And she always gives us sticky eggs!  

I love Aunt Amy!  This month we got to paint eggs at Aunt Amy's house and play sports there.  Me and Ledger love to play with each other.  We played soccer, we played baseball and Amy also has that game where you throw the balls on a string and try to get them to wrap around the poles.  And we also got to color our eggs and take some home.  I colored one that had tons of stripes on it.  It was so fun!

For Spring Break we went to Capitol Reef.  We got a hotel with a swimming pool and breakfast and dinner.  And we also went on hikes and we went fishing.  I didn't catch any but I was fine with that. And it was windy.  We got to have a couple Oreos and blah blah blah ...

The hiking was so fun.  We got to bring our camel baks that have water and I even got to take a lot of my own pictures.  And we also went to the Narrows where the mountains start to squish together but they don't.  And we also got to get ice cream after.  I really loved Capitol Reef.

I hope you have a fun Spring Break.  And I really love school.  I usually play soccer at recess with my friends.  And at school we are learning about the scientific method in science.  We got to do some experiments.  And we also got to race cars and see what one was faster as one of our experiments.  I really love Spring Break because you get to go on fun trips and do fun things with you family.

Goodbye!

February Letter

Dear Family & Friends,

Hello!  This February we had really nice weather and got to play outside a lot.  One day, we went to Temple Square and we got to see the movie "Meet the Mormons" and we got to see Moroni on the top of the temple.  The movie was cool because we got to see different Mormons going around the world.

And it was Valentines Day!  I really loved it.  I got to make my own Valentines box at school in my class party.  We also make a tree in our house where we put up hearts and we write what we love about each other.  I love dad because he loves to do bubble with me.  I love mom because she takes care of me.  I love Brandon because he plays with me.  I love Eric because he loves to play Rubic Cubes with me. Valentines Day is when you celebrate love.

Since we had so much warm weather we went up to test the RZR, we got it for Christmas on how good it drives up and down hills.  We went on a little drive with our 4-wheelers.  Then we went to lunch with Grandma Norberg at Chuck-A-Rama.  I love Grandma Norberg since she's really nice to me every time I see her.

 I love school so much since I get to learn from my teachers.  Learn math and science and phonograms and words.  And I love Valentines Day.  And by Valentines Day is my mother's birthday.

Love Kyle Patrick Barnhisel

January Letter

Dear Family & Friends,

Hello!  We have started a new year, 2015!!

This January I double tested from my orange belt to green belt.  I am in a new class ... YEAH!! I am in the Intermediate class.  What I had to do was the whole entire dosong yong form and I am learning at Green belt Palgae Six.  And I am learning sticks too.  I can't wait to learn the whole entire form. And I am in a blue uniform because I am in XPT!  And I have a katana (Japanese sword) because I am in the weapons class.  And I got new gloves in December at Christmas time from my mom.  And I got a patch with my XPT uniform. And I got a black belt promise.  

First grade is a really good class and I have three really good friends.  Their names are Tanner, Kyson and Alek.  Those are my three great friends.  And there is a girl which chases me around and she has a crush on me and her name is Evie.  I have to hide from her under the tables at lunch time.

I like soccer and football. I am really good at them.  

Goodbye!

November Letter

Dear Family & Friends,

Hello.  This month we went to Los Alamos to visit our cousins.  On the way there we stopped at a hotel in Moab.  In Moab we swimmed at the hotel and we ate at Moab.  At Moab we went on a hike and me and my brothers tried to climb to the top of the mountain.

When we were in Los Alamos we celebrated my dad's birthday and Uncle Steve & Aunt Erin's anniversary.

And of course we celebrated Thanksgiving.  We had a Thanksgiving feast at Los Alamos.  I helped make the turkey for Thanksgiving feast.

It was so yummy.  My favorite part was the rolls!!

After we stuffed ourselves we went on a little hike.  It was so fun and the weather was so warm.  

While we were there me and the boys chopped wood and after me and the boys chopped wood we went to the gas station and got candy!!  And we went to a cool science museum. I loved being with my cousins.

Goodbye!

October Letter

Dear Family & Friends,

Hello.  My name is Kyle.  This month was Halloween.  We went to Gardner Village and I was Captain America for Halloween.  My brother Brandon was Thor and my brother Eric was Iron Man. And my dad was Hulk and my mom was Black Widow.  We had so much fun at Gardner Village.

We had a family Halloween party.  We had so much fun.  Our Aunts and Uncle and Grandpas came.  At the party we ate!  And we took pictures.  And we made caramel apples and we decorated them.

At school on Halloween we had a parade and after that we had a party and it was so fun.  At it we got to eat snacks and after it we got to do some Halloween dancing.

When I went Trick-or-Treating I got a lot of candy!!!  I went with my dad and we stayed out for 2 hours!  It was so fun when I got to pour out my candy.

We got pumpkins from our Uncle Ryan who has a big pumpkin patch.  And we carved them.  Mine looked kinda like Dracula.  

I also had my belt test and belt ceremony.  I earned my ORANGE BELT!!!  And also I have a few friends in my class: Kaden, Kome, Peyton & Paxton, the twins.  And at the belt ceremony we got to do a dumbo (demo).  In the demo some black belts tried to beat us up but we beat them up instead of getting beat up.  And one time I did a back kick and I turned around and did a front kick and knocked out Master Damion. 

I hope you had a good Halloween.  And I hope sometime you'll go to Gardner Village.

Love Kyle Patrick Barnhisel
