The Pets in my Family

In our house I have 7 fish, 1 gecko, 4 caterpillars and my papa has a dog. Now outside I have a cat, Justin has a cat, I have a horse, Lucas has a pony, and our family has 12 chickens and 1 rooster. Each kid has his or her own chicken. Except Sam and Justin. It doesn't interest them too much. We have 3 Bardrocks, 3 Road Island Reds, 1 Black Sexlink, 2 Golden Sexlinks and 2 Ostralarps. The names are not spelled right. They might be right, who knows.I think that is a lot of pets. You know what's cool.....our neighbors have 22 chickens, 1 rooster and 2 turkeys, now that's cool. Oh you can't forget our other dog Joe. He is really our neighbor's dog. But he's at our house most the time. He slept on our porch during the summer. He is so much fun. Especially in the winter. We have fun with all of our pets.

Our Huge Garden

Our Garden is HUGE!!!!! We planted all sorts of things. We planted two types of corn, twelve types of tomatoes, two types of onions, four or five types of carrots, 7 types of peppers,
2 types of cabbage, 1 type of chive, one type of celery, two types of pumpkins, one type of potato, 4 or 5 types of squash, 3 types of cucumbers, 1 type of watermelon, and 1 type of cantaloupe. I say that's about it. Our corn did not do so well. Our tomatoes did good. Our peppers did awesome. Our onions did OK. Our celery did terrible. It died before we got any. Our carrots did OK. They are still growing. Our pumpkins did good. We picked every last one this morning around 9 o'clock. Our potatoes did good. We have eaten all of them. I hope we will plant more next year. All our squash did very good. Our cucumbers did good. Our cantaloupe didn't do too well. We had to feed all of them to the chickens because they tasted like onions. Our watermelon did OK. We only got two small ones. They did taste good though. There is our garden and all about it. I did not go into too much detail, O'well.

My Amazing Family from Youngest to Oldest not Including Me

Baby Sam is the newest in our family. He was born on March 26, 2009. He is a cutie, he is a blessing. God is so creative when he creates people in the womb.

Larah is a blessing too. But boy is she a handful. She is always busy as a bee. She is amazing. How to explain Larah...I don't know, but I'll try. She is... amazing, wonderful, beautiful, an explorer, sweet, and she is always trying to help. That is Larah for you.

Katie is another story. She is also sweet. Katie can work quite good. She is also wonderful, beautiful, and amazing. Katie is becoming an amazing young girl. Man is she becoming so, so beautiful. She is always wanting to help me with my pets. She is a blessing.

Lucas is a very active boy. He is always wanting to go play outside or have a friend over. He is growing up to be quite big. He helps me feed the horse quite a bit. Right now he is doing math. Boy-o-boy is he active. He is a blessing.

Matthew is my big brother. He is an amazing cook. He cooks for the family quite often. He made pancakes this morning and they were wonderful. He is becoming an awesome hard working young man. His job is mowing. He also does other stuff. He is an very, very good worker. He works quite hard and very quick. He gets done with school around 10:00 A.M. Yeah, I am amazed too. He is a blessing.

Justin is also my big brother. If I had to pick a brother that I thought had the most in common with me it would be Justin. He is growing into a very strong young man too. He works at Fischer's Shop in Randle,WA. Justin is very cool. He brings me stuff that he finds in the woods or at Fischer's, like bugs or lizards. One time he brought me home a salamander, but something happened to it. Although I am not going to tell you what happened. He also brought me a chrysalis, I do not know if it is alive, I am hoping. He is a blessing.

Papa is wonderful, he is pretty handsome too. He is a pastor. He is not just a pastor, he is a good pastor. He is amazing, he knows a bunch. I love him bunches and he loves me bunches. He is very, very, very, very, very, very smart. He helps me quite often with all kinds of things. He helps me with my math when I need his help. He helps me spiritually, he is very good at that. He is just good at a bunch of stuff. I am very happy to have him as my papa.

Mom is beautiful,very beautiful in deed. She is a house mom. She cleans the church building for church. We usually help her. She is a very good mom. She is our school teacher. She is good at that too. Her favorite animal is a cat and her favorite color is green. She is wonderful. She is a great mom. She loves Little House on the Prairie.

God is Amazing

A little bit before Sam was born I went to Longview and Portland with my papa. We went to a lot of different places. Our very last stop was a Christan Book Store. All day I had been looking for a little stuffed animal for Baby Sam. Anyway, at this Christan Book Store there were some animals but they just weren't the type I wanted. There were a few but they were too expensive for me. There was one animal that was very much so what I wanted. And before I looked at the price I prayed to God and asked him to make it in my price range which was $5. After I prayed I looked at the price and it was $4.98. Is God amazing of what? Actually when the lady at the counter rung it up it was somewhere around $4.80. GOD IS AMAZING!

My Lovely Horse

My horse is an amazing animal. Her name is Dot. She is a brown Appaloosa with a white bottom with brown spots. She makes me very, very happy. I don't know what got me thinking about jumping but for some reason I thought about jumping. Anyway I set two round logs up and then I got a long stick and I put one end on one log and put the other end on the other log. And she is a good jumper. She cannot jump very high, maybe 2 ft. She also will be laying down in the field and I will go and sit on her and make her stand up while I am on her. She is lots of fun.

Will Spring Ever Come?

Here is a picture of our front yard on the 26th of February. Does God have a sense of humor or not? I'm pretty sure that He does. How about you? I think it is so pretty to look at, but I am truly tired of snow. I would not mind snow if it was warm...flowers could grow, I could ride my horse, we could plant a garden, and last but not least go bare foot. Then I would not mind the snow at all. Guess what? While I'm sitting here typing it is snowing very little flakes outside. Once again I say God has a sense of humor.

Yesterday

Believe it or not, we got snow Tuesday. It snowed most of the day. It was fun because we got the day off of school. Papa had the day off of school too. Lucas, Matthew, Papa, Mom and I played a game called Settlers of Catan. I will blog about that some other day. We played in the snow for awhile. We put Lucas's skis on and put some hay string on Joe. He pulled me and Lucas back and forth on Morris Rd. We had a fun day. We also went to the Pollman's farm and fed the cows and the horses. Papa, Lucas, Matthew, Larah and I all went. Mom had a pretty quiet house...only Mom and Katie were at the house. While we were at the farm Lucas and I went through the hay tunnel. We went in one side and came out the other. And guess what?...it is raining all day today.

Joe

Joe is our neighbor's dog. He is a male, hyper, strong, black lab. He adopted us. Hey, it's a good deal. We have a dog and don't have to feed it or take care of it. All we have to do is love him and he'll stick around. Boy-O- Boy is he fun. We hook him up to the sled and have him pull us. He can pull me and I am almost 100 pounds. All you have to do is throw something and he'll move. And boy does he move fast. We also hook him up to the sled and have him pull our hay into the horse pen. When we are playing outside and when he is out there, we tackle him. He is a good dog. He makes it easy to be with him...when he is hooked up to the sled. And when you are just with him.
