Essay on Thomas E Ricks

THOMAS E RICKS BY:Midge

      Thomas E Ricks founded BYU Idaho.He faced many scary but fascinating accidents. If I were you I would keep reading.

       In 1884 Ricks broke his leg while riding a horse. He was riding it when it fell over and landed on his left leg as the result he had to use a cane for the rest of his life even though he broke his leg there's much worse things that are going to happen then just breaking his leg.

   On June 6,1884 a group of Native Americans attacked Rick's pioneer company. Ricks and some other men in the camp went to persue them. Remember when I said that something much worse is going to happen instead of breaking his leg well I think you're going to find out what is going to happen. Well when the men got there they got ambushed. Ricks got shot THREE TIMES!!! two times in the kidneys and one time in the backbone the men in the camp thought Ricks was dead but the good thing was he wasn't! The men went back and told Rick's father, Joel, he was dead. Devestated Joel went out to look for the dead body, but instead he found him clinging to life on the ground. Quickly Joel took him safely back to the camp.  Thomas was okay after a while of resting and care. 

   Now you might be wondering when in the world is Thomas going to found BYU Idaho! Well listen up because on November 12,1888 Ricks college was founded! Later on it was changed to BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, but for short called BYU Idaho. Soon Thomas E Ricks died at age 73, but he will be remeberd by the memorial garden made for him.Thank you for reading.      

   I did this essay in my 5th grade class and performed a small piece for our class's We The People presentation. Thomas E. Rick's is my great great great grandpa.

a day at the pool with grandma!

 I hade lots of fun at grandma's house!!! Booz Buzz was my favorite person to play with. Princess only liked the slide. She wouldn't do any thing else so we had to play with her in the little kids pool but I liked the big kid's pool best. Booz Buzz liked the slide the best. Princess helped out Booz Buzz.

 Booz buzz had lots of fun. He wouldn't leave the slide the slide at all if you moved him he would scream. The only other place he went was the hot tub.

 This is Booz buzz going down the slide.

 I like this picture the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Booze buz has his own puppy! Yay Booze buz thinks its a real dog he still sleeps with it and makes puppy sounds when he plays with it.When the puppy is stuck some where he makes puppy noises and acts like a dog. You do not want to see what happens when you take away the puppy when he's playing with it.

 Booz buz set up his own chair and would not let you touch the puppy.

flowers and the sun

 I went on line to look for some pretty flowers.Then I had an idea. I decided to draw flowers I have a school day off so I have plenty of time!

 This is one is my favorite. I had went on line but mom showed me some of the pictures she took.

 I saw that Huck hasen't been in any of my blogs so far so I added him. Huck is my favorite baby brother I feel bad when Huck is crying so I always try to make to make him happy!

 I love this pink flower Little Miss says its her favorite. I like the little tiny flowers that are in the middle. Little Miss whispered to me. "I like all the flowers!''

This flower is right by a crystal clear river.
