Answer:
Last Saturday was a perfect day. My cousins Reid and Bella came to visit. We decided to go to the park for a picnic. The sun shone brightly and sparkled on the water as we laid out a colorful blanket near the lake. We told jokes and laughed as we ate our lunch under the shade of the trees. My favorite sandwich is grilled cheese, but we didn't bring any of those. After lunch, Reid took out his new dragon-shaped kite, and we watched as it rose into the sky and danced among the clouds. As we watched the kite fly higher and higher, we all agreed that this was the best day ever!
