Mike has had an exciting winter this year. He has been to the mountains with his family, and he has seen deep snow, tall trees, and a frozen lake. On one very cold morning, he has taken many photos because everything has looked white and quiet. He has written about the trip in his notebook when he has come home.
Back in town, Mike has done lots of fun things too. He has ridden his bike in the park on sunny afternoons, and he has gone there with his cousin twice. After football practice, he has eaten hot vegetable soup and has drunk hot chocolate in the kitchen with his mum.
