			<description><![CDATA[It was the last day of school for Allison and she was beyond excited.  Every year she spent the summer with her grandparents in the country.  She enjoyed the much needed break from the city. It was 3:45pm when the bell rang, the school year had come to an end and summer vacation was about to begin.  Allison raced home from the school bus to begin packing for her Grandparents house. They would be there to pick her up later that evening.  While packing, all Allison could think about was all the fun she was going to have over the summer.  She had it all planned out. On the way to her Grandparents house, she thought about her grandmothers freshly squeezed lemonade and homemade apple pie. Her mouth watered just thinking about it.  <br /><br />    Once they reached her Grandparents house Allison went upstairs to her room to unpack and get settled.  Her grandmother had prepared her favorite meal for dinner; fried chicken, mac and cheese, collard greens, and homemade butter biscuits. For dessert she had made her famous apple pie. After dinner Allison was stuffed so she decided to get ready for bed, she had a long day. That night she couldn&#039;t sleep all she had on her mind was what she had planned to do her first day of summer break.  Eventually she dosed off and started counting sheep.<br />  <br />    The next morning Allison awoke to the smell of bacon, eggs, and sausage being cooked for breakfast. The sun was shining bright, it was going to be a beautiful day.  She jumped out of bed, showered, got dressed, ate breakfast, and went to meet up with her friends. First, they went swimming in the nearby lake and picked flowers in the field.  Afterwards Allison, her friends, and her Grandparents went to the park and had a picnic.  Allison loved spending time with her Grandparents.  They spent the whole afternoon laughing, joking, and listening to Allison&#8217;s grandfather tell stories from his childhood. <br />  <br />    As the sun begin to set they headed home.  The girls wanted to catch lightening bugs and lay under the stars.  They ran around the yard like crazy with their jars catching lightening bugs.  Allison hadn&#8217;t had this much fun in a long time. The girls ran around until they couldn&#039;t&#8217;t run no more laughing and giggling.  As they laid under the stars the girls begin reminiscing about their day and how much fun they had together.  They made plans for the next day, then Allison&#8217;s friends headed home and she went inside.  She talked to her Grandparents for a little while. She showered and off to bed she went, she was exhausted from all the fun she had that day.<br /><br />   The next day she was awaken by the birds chirping. Waking up to the sound of birds chirping was one of the many reasons she loved being in the country.  Along with going on nature walks, picking blackberries and honeysuckles off of bushes. She loved sucking the sweet nectar out of the honeysuckles. To Allison being in the country was like heaven compared to living in the city. She enjoyed the fresh country air. As she skipped to her friend&#8217;s house, she smiled and thought to herself I&#8217;m moving to the country when I get older!]]></description>
