"Hey Cara!", said Cara's mom on Christmas Day at 8:20 A.M. "We are going to see my friend Jacey O'Donnell play the trombone today at the 9:00 A.M mass! So get on your fancy clothes and let's go!"

So Cara put on a dress. When they got to the church, Cara realized that her mom's friend could be a really great trombone player! When the mass was starting, she took her shoes and socks off and started wiggling her toes to the priest.

"CARA!", yelled Cara's mom. "HOW DARE YOU TAKE YOUR SHOES AND SOCKS OFF AT CHURCH! THIS IS YOUR FIRST STRIKE! FOUR MORE STRIKES AND YOU'RE GROUNDED!" And so Cara didn't do anything bad for the rest of the mass.

When they got home, they opened their presents. Cara got the movie Inside Out, a pair of crash cymbals, a fart jar, and a camera to fill with her videos. She loved all of those things. Then they went to a family gathering. Cara took her crash cymbals with her.
