Mr. and Mrs. Wilson invited all their friends and
neighbors to a party last night. They stayed home all day yesterday and
prepared for the party.
In the morning the Wilsons worked outside. Their
daughter, Margaret, cleaned the yard. Their son, Bob, painted the fence. Mrs.
Wilson planted flowers in the garden, and Mr. Wilson fixed their broken front
steps.
In the afternoon the Wilsons worked inside the house.
Margaret washed the floors and vacuumed the living room carpet. Bob dusted the furniture and cleaned the
basement. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson stayed in the kitchen all afternoon. He cooked
spaghetti for dinner, and she baked apple pies for dessert.
The Wilsons finished all their work at six o’clock.
Their house looked beautiful inside and out!
The Wilsons’ guests arrived at about 7.30. After they
arrived, they all sat in the living room. They ate cheese and crackers, drank
lemonade, and talked. Some people talked about their children and other people
talked about the weather. And everybody talked about how beautiful the Wilsons’
house looked inside out!
The Wilsons served dinner in the dining room at 9.00.
Everybody enjoyed the meal very much. They liked Mr. Wilson’s spaghetti and
they “loved” Mrs. Wilson’s apple pie.
After dinner everybody sat in the living room again.
First, Bob Wilson played the piano and his sister, Margaret, sang. Then, Mr.
and Mrs. Wilson showed a video of their trip to Hawaii. After that, they turned
on the music and everybody danced.
As
you can see, the Wilsons’ guests enjoyed the party very much. In fact, nobody
wanted to go home!
