Lydia's Rockin' Summer

      My summer was rockin'!  I was really busy this summer.  I think this summer was magnificent, but it was really short.
      I was in basketball for most of the time.  I was part of an AAU basketball team, called Iowa Team Fury, that was based out of Dubuque.  I had to try out for it, and as you can tell I made it onto the team.  It was really amazing because, besides playing basketball, I met a lot of new girls, made a lot of new friends, and got to travel a lot.  We went to a bunch of different places.  We went to the Wisconsin Dells a couple times, and we got to go to Chicago a couple times.
     The Chicago tournament was really fun!  We played three games and won all of them.  In the end we got first.  I was really happy!!
     The first time I went to Chicago, my parents and I got to go to a bunch of different places like; the Shedd Aquarium, the Field Museum, the Museum of Science and Industry, and the Lincoln Park Zoo.    I took a lot of pictures and got a lot of awesome souvenirs.
      The second time I went to Chicago, I got to go to a WNBA game.  Chicago Sky was playing the Minnesota Lynx.  I got to do the high-five tunnel for the Minnesota Lynx when they were coming onto the floor.  Chicago Sky won the game!!  My favorite player plays for them.  Her name is Elena Delle Donne.  She is a post player.  I got a pennant with her name on it.  I also got two autographs.  It was so amazing to go to the game.
      This summer I hung out with my family a lot.  That's what I think I like the most about the summer.
      I loved my rockin' summer!
