What’s your idea?” Thalia said, “Maybe we should go camping, we haven’t ever done that before,” Savan said, “Ooo camping, I wanna go!” Kayla walked in, looked at Savan and said, “Camping ah?” Savan looked at Kayla and pleaded, “Please mom can I go camping?” Kayla replied, “If you’re brother is going to be with you, then okay.” Savan looked at Max hoping he was going, Max said, “I’ll go, it sounds like fun.” Savan’s eyes widen with excitement, she ran up to Max, hugged him, Max hugged back and Savan said, “Thank you so much big bro,” Max said, “Anytime sis,” BonnieFan said, “Let’s get the stuff ready and let’s go, what should we bring?” Max and Savan let go of each other, Max stood up and said, “Obviously a tent, maybe some fishing rods in case we want to go fishing, swimsuits because I know a great place for camping and it has a lake if we wanna go swimming,we should also bring marshmallows for s'mores, hmmm, what else?” Thalia said, “Maybe a hunting knife just in case we come across any danger, sleeping bags, tarts for in case it rains, polls, stakes, firewood, a lighter and some pillows so we don’t have our heads hurting while we’re asleep,” Max said, “Alright, I’ll also bring my guitar so I can play it while we’re sitting around the campfire,” BonnieFan said, “Great idea, let’s do it,” everyone said, “Alright,” Max said, “Hey guys, how long should we stay at the campsite?” Funtime Freddy said, “Um...I don’t know actually,” Funtime Foxy said, “I have no idea,” BonnieFan said, “I don’t know, four, five, six days?” Savan said, “I wanna do five days,” Max said, “Alright, who ever says we should stay for five days, raise your hand.” Everyone that was in the room raised their hand and so did Max, they all put their hands down when three seconds passed, Max said, “Alright, five days it is then,” Savan exclaimed in excitement, “Yay!” Thalia saw how excited Savan was, she looked at Max and said, “Man, Max your sister seems really excited about this,” Max said, “I know, this is her first time camping and she’s wanted to do it for a long time,” Thalia asked, “For how long?” Max started to think and said, “I’d say for about..hmm..two years now,” Thalia was surprised by that answer and said, “Wow..two years, seriously?” Max replied, “Yeah, every since I went to summer camp to volunteer two years ago, my sister has always wanted to bring here they but my parents always said no,” Savan said, “It’s true,” Thalia looked at Savan and then Savan said, “I wanted to go camping for so long but I wasn’t able too, but now I can,” Lia said, “Guys, let’s get the stuff ready and let’s leave the in the afternoon tomorrow ,” Max said, “Alright, let’s do this guys.”
