Hi, my name is Maggie and today is my birthday. I am 10 years old. My family and I are very excited because now I'm in the double digits.

For my birthday, I got a very soft pillow from my Aunt Kim and Uncle Scott. They also gave me a Groovy Girl doll that I had been wanting. Ellas gave me a bracelet and ring. He is a generous boy and a good cousin.

Today, I went to the movies with my Mom, brothers, sister and friends. My friends are Shareen and Elise. We went to see Ice Age 2: The Meltdown. It was hysterical. One of the characters in the movie is a scrat. That's a cross between a squirrel and a rat. So funny! At one point, he dies and goes to scrat heaven. There are lots of nuts and clouds. One nut is big and shiny. He does a ballet kind of dance to it. Just as he reaches for it, Sid (another one of the characters) does CPR on him and brings him back to this world. The scrat gets very angry and starts doing Kung Fu on him. We were having a lot of fun and laughs.

After the movie, we had blizzards at the Dairy Queen. They were very tasty. It had over 70 grams of sugar! It was a good treat for us. Shareen, Gracie and I got Oreo Blizzards and Elise got a Reese Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard. Brody got an ice cream cone. Ty got a Banana Cream blizzard.

Overall, I had a great birthday cause I got to send to spend it with my family and friends. And my Nana might take me back to see The Shaggy Dog! I bet it's going to be funny.

That's all for now. Bye.
