Fun With Grandma, Grandpa., and Uncle Ron By: Sis Age: 8

Recently, Grandma Grandpa, and Uncle Ron came to our house to visit!
It was lots of fun, here's the story . . .

We were all excited for Grandma and Grandpa and Uncle Ron to come to our house!
We were at our neighbours house playing, when they all pulled in! We said 'goodbye' and then we ran back to our house, we then patted Kirby their dog and then rushed inside the house, Grandpa, who had also said he would check our light switch, got out his tools and talked to Daddy, while Grandma, Mommy, Buddy, Baby Boy, and Papoose were in the living room, Grandma then pulled out some 3-D chalk with some glasses that would make what you drew on the pavement, look absolutely huge! Then, Grandma gave me a tea set and a jump rope which my Aunt had sent! They also gave us some cute tattoos, our favorites were the smiley face, soccerball, and butterfly. After this, Grandma gave Baby Boy some bubbles with a container so that it wouldn't spill, and 4 wands. Then she gave Buddy and I some big bubble containers! We all said thank you, and then went outside to try the bubbles, and Uncle Ron came out also! It was lots and lots of fun! We played outside for about half an hour and then I came inside and Grandma and I went downstairs so that I could show her my Webkinz! Buddy and I share 2, they are stuffed animals and have a secret code so that when you enter them on the computer you can play games with them and other friends, you also get to feed them! It was lots of fun, when we went up for supper, it smelled delicous! PIZZA! (From Tomatoes!) It was Y-U-M-M-Y! We talked and then we asked Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Ron if they would like to go to Beech Hill Farm! It's a place where you can get ice-cream cones with a huge list, and it has lots of animals! They said they'd love to so Buddy, Grandma, Uncle Ron, Baby Boy and I decided that we'd wait outside. (We also brought Kirby) we walked him up and down the street, until we were ready to set out for Beech Hill Farm! Then we hopped in the car and went to Beech Hill Farm, when we got there we hurried to the ice-cream place, after we had gotten it we went to see the animals, there was . . .

Animals:

2 calves
2 bunnies
8 goats
2 piglets
2 horses
2 donkeys
1 peacock (including a female)

After we had looked at all the animals, we said goodbye, thanked Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Ron for coming and then drove home.

Fun with Grandma By: Sis Age: 8

Daddy, this week was away this week on a trip to California, for his work and everybody was sad when he was getting ready to go, we had had a late school morning but had done a couple of fun subjects with Daddy. There was a couple of tears and then we went back to do school. We finished school and then we went for a walk. The next evening everybody was waiting outside for Grandma to come for the sleepover we had been waiting for! We all were excited when she came, when she came we put the subs she had brought for us from Subway in the fridge and we decided to go for a walk! When we came back we hungrily ate the subs, chips, and cookies! (Chocolate Chip) Then after that we talked with Grandma and all decided that we'd watch a Little House on The Prairie Movie. So we chose one out got in our PJ's and then we went down to watch "Here Come The Brides." After we watched it we all went to bed. The next morning we enjoyed a delicous breakfast of chocolate dipped strawberries, and chocolate chip banana bread. Then we all got ready to go to Steele Hill to swim! After we all got into our bathingsuits and we had gotten our lunch packed, we started out. Once we got there we hurried in the pool. It was nice warm water! Grandma quickly hopped in! She wanted to see all of the pools, she next went into the kiddy pool with Mama's Baby and we all went under the waterfall! Then she went into the hot tub which was VERY hot! Next, we went to our favorite part (can you guess?) THE WATERSLIDE! We were the only ones in the pool for half the time, until 2 older men came in and then they went on the other half of the pool so we could have half. Grandma was coming down the waterslide and when the people saw her they got out of the pool, pulled some chairs right in front of the slide and were watching Grandma go down the slide! The funny part was, Grandma didn't even notice! After when we got out Mom told Grandma, and said that She Papoose and Mama's Baby were having fun at the "show"! We all had lots of fun, we left after about 3 hours and then we had our lunch, tuna sandwiches, watermelon, milk, and chocolates! On the way home we got a frosty!

We all had a blast! (Thanks for coming Grandma!)

Mother's Day 2008

Today was such a special Mother's Day. Papoose turned one month today; we are enjoying him so much. I have lots to write but am presently doing laundry and helping Stephen pack for a week in California. :(

I called my brother, Adam, to take these pictures in front of our beautiful, blooming tree. It is only this pretty for a week or two, so we grabbed our chance at a nice background...

Funny coinsedince in Church Dictated By Buddy: to Sis Age: 6 and 8

Yesterday, at church just after Pastor Andy had finished the sermon, (we were sitting in the back chairs) all of the sudden, I accidentally bumped my head on the switch that turned on the fan! I frantically wondered what to do! I looked back at the fan switch (while meanwhile the fans were spinning and making as much noise as a helicopter!) There were dimmers and so I finally got the fans to go slower! Then I saw a switch, I flipped it off, but that was the wrong switch! It turned off all the lights! I was really getting frantic. (and quite cold!) And then everybody tried to muffle their giggles! But it just got worse! And I, never did get the fans off, until after church, when an elder switched the right switch!

Real Story!
