My Childhood

I was born in Medellin and I have lived with my brother, my sister and my parents, we used to live downtown and now we live in Los Colores. My family used to go to our farm , San Pedro de Los Milagros, on weekends, when we went to the country house, we use to play with animals, we receive the sun and we walk to the forest. Also my sister and I used to visit our aunt that lived near  our home, we would always play with her and eat a lot of licore candies, I remember that we used to eat a lot of that candies until we had a stomachache. In our home we didn’t make many things but when we were bored we used to dress up like indigenous, we would make arrows and arches we really enjoyed that. Our parents  have always  wanted that we learn many things so in my childhood I used to go to many classes like swimming class, chess class and skating class. in conclussion I remember my childhood like a fun period in my life.
My childhood was very happy. My family is big and we used to reunite in my uncle's farm, very far from here, in Tolima. In that farm, I have one of my best memories because I did everything you can do in a farm. Run with the horses, milking cows, fishing lake and fun with all this activities. But I what remember most is the new year's eve. We used to cook a lot of food to eat the rest of the day. My cousins and I used to play between the trees in the garden on sunny days. We'd always get us a sunburn. Also we used to go to the pens to annoy hens but our parents would always get annoyed with us.
Although not all the situations happenes in that farm. My uncles and aunts and their families used to live in Bogota. We'd go there almost every vacations.
We used to reunite in my uncle Ruben's house to have a "tea party" but with chocolate. In a room, all the cousins used to tell jokes and laugh all the time. Also we used to make up songs with funny things like the hair of an aunt or something similar. That was very hilarious!
On the next day our parents used to cook sancocho in wood on the roof top of my uncle's house while my cousins and I played football. I would always win.

I used to live in a farm when i was 5 years old. I used to live with my  grandmother and my older sister.In those days I used to hate when I had to eat soup. Now I just cant live without eating  a vegetable soup. We would go to town every weekend. I used to meet with friends those days and we'd play a lot at the park. I used to have lots of fun when I was at the farm. I'd ride horses when my dad herded cows to other places around our farm. I used to ride pigs too but just for fun hahahaha! My cousins would come every vacation. We used to tell horror stories and after that we used not to be able to sleep. My normal chores used to be feeding hens and chickens,cleaning their cages and collecting wood and water for cooking. I did it pretty well.
Now that i remember it, I used to be happy while I lived there.
