Hi, my name is Emma. I want to tell you about my weekend. On Saturday morning, I usually go to the market with my mom. We buy fresh fruit and vegetables. Then, in the afternoon, I sometimes play table tennis with my brother. He is really good at it, but I always try to win.
On Sunday, I love spending time outside. Last weekend, we went on a short journey to the nearby hill. It was sunny, and we had a picnic. My dad made delicious sandwiches, and my little sister found some pretty flowers. After lunch, we played games and talked about our plans for the next week. It was a perfect day!
