The Family Picnic
It was a Sunday morning and I was very excited. My big sister was coming home for a visit. My mother decided to have a family reunion. So she invited our relatives to a picnic in the park.I helped my father get the food ready. I even helped him make his famous potato salad.
Just as my aunts, uncles, and cousins began to arrive, my sister phoned. "My car broke down," she told my mother, sadly. "I can't come to the picnic."
But then my mother had an idea. We packed up the food and got into our cars. Two hours later, we knocked on my sister's door.
"Surprise!" we yelled.
"A family reunion!" my sister shouted, hugging everyone. We found a nice place to sit outside.
We talked, ate, and had lots of fun. We even went swimming in the river.
"Mom, do we have to go home?" I asked, as everyone said goodbye.
"I'll see you again soon," my sister told me. "Thanks for the wonderful picnic!
