Fashion Camp By Devyn!

Hey everyone! On Monday I did a fashion camp! It was so much fun and I learned a lot of things. It was at Towne Center which is like this big shopping plaza with a ton of stores. Now I will list all the stores we went to and what we did and what I learned!

1 Ulta: We got mini makeovers and learned how to apply make up correctly. Then we learned about what colors of nail polish go with which season. Last but not least we learned about hair care.

2 Teal: At teal we got to dress our own manicans! That was really fun to do!

3 Francesca's: Here we got to look at different patterns and say what they were. Also we got to find different styles of clothing.

4 Burton's Grill: This is a restaurant and we ate lunch here. We learned table manners and how to act while eating out.

5 Versona Accessories: This is my new favorite store. At Versona they picked out an outfit for us to accessorize, then we accessorized what we were wearing, then we picked out our own outfit and accessories.

6 Belk: Lastly we went to Belk and talked about shoes. They gave us an event and we had to pick out the appropriate kind of shoe that we would were.

At this camp they gave me a 25 dollar gift card to Towne Center, which I already spent at Versona. They also gave me a ton of coupons and discounts. My favorite thing probably was the I heart to shop tee shirt that they also gave me. It was a lot of fun and I am definitely going to do it next year!

A powerpoint by Devyn!

Hey everyone! I haven't posted a video in a while, but I am now! I decided to do a PowerPoint on the complete shopping guide! Now this isn't a real thing I just made it up, but I hope you like it anyway. Now to go from slide to slide you have to click the button that you would normally click to look at anything or do anything.

Thanksgiving!

Yesterday was the most unusual thanksgiving ever. So we all woke up at like 5:30 and got ready in our nice clothes. Then we drove to a gas station and got cappuccinos. Next we made our way down to a place called the Dream Center, which is run by our church. My family and I were going to cut desserts for the lunches that the other people were making. The goal was to make lunch's of Turkey, mash potatoes, green beans, and all the Thanksgiving fix ins and deliver the meals to people around the area who were less fortune it. I have never seen so many pumpkin pies in my entire life! There were probably 20 pumpkin pies And that's not all! There were cupcakes, muffins, donuts, cakes, pies, cookies, breads, and tons of other stuff! I didn't eat anything. We cut the desserts for like 2 and a half hours straight. It was very fun, but finally it was time to leave.

We drove around for a long, long time looking for a place to eat. Finally we settled at Ihop. Or as Landon says ihope. We waited forever for our food, and people were getting grumpy. The food came what seemed like hours later. I had mac-n-cheese, and fruit salad at 11 in the morning on Thanksgiving. Next we played a game called "Spot It." Everyone has 1 card. In the middle of the group there is a card face down. One person flipped the card over and you have to find something that is the same on your card as on the middle card. The first person to call out what is the same gets to keep that card. It was really embarrassing, because my family can get very loud with games, and people were looking at us.

Then we drove for four minutes to a movie theater. We bought 5 tickets to see Wreck-it-Ralph. Then we waited in line to by popcorn and soda. My mom got a large refillable sprite and a large refillable popcorn for all of s to share. The movie was reeeeaaaaaallllllyyyyy really good! I would go see it again and again. It made me laugh so hard, even my mom and dad laughed! I would recommend it for the whole family. I had so much soda that I went to the bathroom 3 times, and I never go to the bathroom during movies. After the movie we drove the 12 miles back home.

When we got home I ate a mini pumpkin pie. Then my mom made me work on school work! Give me a break! I finished it, and then she dragged me on a bike ride with her. On our travels we saw 2 alligators! Some one in our neighborhood was deep frying a Turkey and it smelt oh so very good, I was about to die! Right when we got back my mom made brussel sprouts and Turkey-less Turkey with gravy. She also had made a pumpkin rice thing. We all ate and said what we were thankful for. After we ate i took a shower, then I played Mario kart on the Wii. I got 5 place! Then my brother and I watched a special Thanksgiving Good Luck Charlie.

It was a weird and unusual Thanksgiving, but I liked it. It was very fun and different!

short story time!

This is a short story by Devyn Jackson! Enjoy...
The secret of the fairies

      Once there was a magical wizard that lived deep in the forest. His name was Dr. Hubbles, and he was 349 years old. Dr. Hubbles was the oldest in the village, he had been around the longest. The catch with Mr. Hubbles, was that he could not be trusted. He knew every trick and spell in the book that you never know what we will conjure up next! 
      One fine July day, Grace, the kings daughter, was picking lilacs by the wizard's tiny cottage.
"Oh my! These lilacs are just lovely. I think I'll pick some blue ones for mother." Suddenly she saw a green puff of smoke come from Dr. Hubbles back door. "Dr. Hubbles? What ever are you doing" Grace called from the window. The wizard replied, "Grace, my fine lady. How do you do?" "Very fine thank you. I... couldn't help but notice that green smoke coming out of your window. What is that all about?" The princess asked. "Well, you see... um... well, I'm trying to figure out the secret of the fairies." Dr. Hubbles said. "But Dr. Hubbles, know one has ever figured out the secret of the fairies, ever!" " Grace, why don't you come back to my cottage tomorrow, and i will have tell the you secret of the fairies. I promise." That was Dr. Hubbles, and he always keeps his promises.
      It was the next day, and Grace was at Dr. Hubbles cottage. "Excuse me. May I come in?" "Why of, course! Are you ready to find out the secret of the fairies, princess?" The wizard asked. Grace replied, "yes, yes! Yes I am ready. Tell me!"
      "You are a fairy! That is the secret of the fairies! Now you know, don't use your powers for bad, be careful with your fairy dust. Best wishes!"

Sewing Camp!!!!

Last week I went to a sewing camp in old mount pleasant, SC. It was Monday to Friday, 1:00 to 3:00. There were 6 girls including me. The girl that taught the camp had sewing machines for each of us. We made super cool things, and it was super fun and easy. I met this girl there, her name is Gracelyn Ely. She is going into the 7th grade, and she goes to Cario middle school. I do too! She has a sister named Sheldyn and she is going into the 3rd grade at Pinkney Elementary School, that is where Corbin goes. Gracelyn and I have tons in common with each other. I loved sewing camp!

I liked when they served us drinks and food and cookies on the plane. I had a lot of snacks.
What about the airport? What do you remember?
I remember that I got a piece of pretzel and a whole shake. and I love seeing the plane flying out the window.
What did we do when we first got Charleston?
We walked out of the plane and we just walked and I don't know where we walked to. I think it was the airport again.

We go'd out to eat and Devyn got a phone. And we gone fishing and before the fishing we played at a playground on a spinny thing that went super fast. And there was a sit thing that went fast. And we went to trader joes and I got a sample. Manicotti. And I gone to my new school.

Swimming and ice cream. I like to go under water and jump and do cannonballs. Sit jumps. Dives. then pencil jumps. then dives.
