Special Olympics State Summer Games 2015 were in my city this year. It was exciting. The fun started on Tuesday with BBQ at Osprey Stadium hang out with friends, listen to Oula music take photos, watch torch run.

On Wednesday I did fun things with Mom at U-M. There was drumming — I said ”No drum.” My Mom tried to help me change my mind, ” ”No drum”. So she tried drumming – – which was very funny. She has no rhythm. I took photos but no drum for Mathalia.
Then I saw FFA friends. I saw goats! I was thinking about Kanga. I was excited to hold a goat and remember Kanga and my lamb. Domino FFA is all done. I am an adult. I still like all the animals.
I try hula hoop. It was funny. I find free stuff cute hat, toys, sunscreen, Chapstick. I see Yellow stone animals and photos.

I go into Adam’s Center. Little girls hold purple scarf with music and dancing. And there was fire with Olympic Torch. We sang the Star Spangled Banner. We listen music and talking. I wave my light around. It was pretty fun!
