Holiday postcard
My postcard is to my cousin Tyler
Dear Tyler
I went to the lego shop and bought a lot of lego. I went to buy more but it was $30. It was fun to make. It took a long time to finish. It took 55 minutes. I made a dinosaur and it was hard to break the lego. I went ice skating and I falled over a lot. It was cold. I did it all by myself without a trolley.
