Option B

I remember when me and my brother used to be like Jem and Scout. We always liked to play with each other in different ways. We built legos. We would help cook with our parents, we did a lot of that back then. Made jokes out of random things. We would work with our dad. Many times my brother and I would watch movies together also. We always played video games with each other. When my brother started to get older, we grew apart in some ways. I do one thing, then my brother would probably do the opposite. In the case of Jem and Scout their relationship was described as close knit. As they grew older their relationship changed. In the case of my brother and I , I guess the age difference caught up with us but I wouldn't say we grew apart but it has changed.

My brother Kenneth and I never went to a summer camp , but we managed to always find something to do. I would see our neighbor and talk to them. I met someone who lived in Colorado when I visited to Las Vegas. We went swimming. We would always make dares to do something weird in the pool. I don't remember all the dares, but they were fun. Jem and Scout would visit their dad at the courthouse when he had a trial. Summer was different for Scout and Jem . Summer for them meant nothing but free time to do nothing.

Spending time together as a family is an important family value. There is something we always did together. I remember we went movie hopping. We watch two movies in a row. We go to the park a lot and play basketball. I would play game with them. Me and my brother don't do much because of extracurricular activities, but in the summer, we find ourselves hanging out a lot. Me and my dad hang out a lot also. When my brothers gone, we would go shopping or go to the mall for some shoes. I would help my dad fix the car. However, for Jem and Scout they made dares.
