Grandparents Cabin

Me and my family have so many memories at my grandparents cabin. Whether it's fishing on the dock, or going to the fourth of July parade.
When I was little my Grandparents had a cabin. We would go there every Fourth of July and other times in the summer. My whole family would come up including my cousins, aunts and grandparents. On the fourth of July we would go to the parade and get bags and bags of candy. When we got home we would trade the candy until we got hungry. Then we would eat corn on the cob, juicy watermelon, and hamburgers. When night came we would sit outside and watch the firework show my aunt and uncle would put on. We had so many fun times up at the cabin but as the years past our family got bigger and we became busier. The cabin soon became too small. My grandparents purchased a new one but things weren't the same. We still go up to the cabin but we usually only go up with just my grandparents.

Modes of Liturature

I chose the show The Nanny. The Nanny is a funny show and it happens to be a comedy. I believe The Nanny is a comedy because it's realistic and the main character is in control. The show starts out with normalcy when they are all eating breakfast and then they decide to go on a vacation. The conflict is when they are driving to the airport and its snowing. The snow starts coming down harder and the are in a blizzard. They are driving past the nannies moms house and they decide to stop. They are forced to stay at the house because the roads are closed. The conflict gets solved when they try to recreate the vacation at the moms house and they have fun because they are all together. I know it’s a comedy because the beginning and end are not sad or scary. The Nanny is wonderful comedy that is funny and totally realistic.
