It had a big garden with lots of colorful flower and swimming pool. First, we made a fire in front of the house. Then, we sat around the fire and sang lots of songs together. After that, we came into the house and had dinner. Next, we sat in the living room and watched a movie. Finally, everybody fell asleep in there. We woke up very late in the morning and had breakfast. In the afternoon, we went home. We were all very happy.
