Movies, Swimming and Cousins!

 Hi all!  Can I tell you something funny?  Our cousins, Kit and McKenna, are staying in Daytona Beach too, but we didn't know that each other were here until we saw each other's blog posts!  Since our hotels were not that far apart, our parents arranged for us to meet at the hotel my family is staying at yesterday.
 "Hey, Chrissa!  I haven't seen you in a long time!" Kit greeted me with a hug.
"Defiantly!" I returned the hug.
"So, what do you want to do?" my crazy cousin asked.
 "What about if we made videos, staring us?" I suggested.
"That's a great idea!"
"I'll go get my camera."  We made several awesome videos, but unfortunately blogger would not let us upload them.  :(  After that, we decided to go swimming.
 Elizabeth ...
 ... and McKenna laid on the pool deck.
 With a splash, Kit dove into the deep, blue water.
 I joined her, and we had a race (or two).
 "I think I might join you; that looks like fun." my sister said, pulling off her cover-up.
"Do you want to come in, McKenna?" I asked.
"Not right now."
 Kit, Elizabeth and I swam until our moms told us it was time to head in.
 "Okay, I'm coming." I said, climbing out of the water.
All in all, Elizabeth and I spent a wonderful afternoon making videos and swimming with our cousins.
Do you like making movies with your friends?

A Movie and a Surprise

 Today, after school, Chrissa asked me if I wanted to watch a movie with her.
"What one were you thinking of?" I inquired.
"McKenna shoots for the Stars." she replied.  "I love watching the gymnasts!"
"They are interesting." I said.  "So I think I will join you."
"Great! I'll go set up the movie." Chrissa said as she ran down the stairs.
"And I will make some popcorn."

 Chrissa and I settled down to watch our movie, and our dogs joined us.
 But personally, I think they were more interested in the popcorn than the movie.  When McKenna ended, I went to get the mail.
"Chrissa!" I said happily.  "Look, we got a package from Liberty!"
"Ya!  I've been waiting for her letter!" Chrissa said.
"What's this?" I said.  "A present from Marie-Grace!"
 "Wow, that's pretty." Chrissa said, looking over my shoulder.
 Liberty sent me a letter along with the package.  Inside, it said: 
'Dear Elizabeth,
 Happy Birthday!  A few days ago I got a
 package from Marie.  Inside was a 
letter for me and a present for you. Marie
 ... wishes you a very happy birthday. ...'
"My birthday's not tell November." I said, puzzled.
"Maybe she got mixed up." Chrissa cheerfully suggested.  I don't know, but and early birthday gift was a nice surprise.
