My Beautiful Bird

I got a female canary Sept. 6. It was the day after we got back from camping. I have had fun with it. I am sharing it with my mom. We still have not named it yet. My mom wants its name to be Pretty Bird, I don't know about that name. If any of y'all people out there read this post, help me with a name.

I think it was the day after I got her that I actually got it to stand on my hand and eat seed off of my hand...just for a few seconds. To get seed she would get closer and closer then scoot over, but sooner or later she would get close enough to take a seed or two from my hand and scoot over and munch on it.

The way I got my bird was I worked for Miss Star White. She owns a store called Fine Feathers and Fins. She sells birds and fish. She also sells bird and fish supplies. And a few odds-and-ends that she special ordered for people and they never picked them up. Like turtle food. She had frog food because she once sold frogs but they are all gone now. Anyways I fed & watered her birds and fed her fish. So that's that.

Oh yeah! This is funny! My dad bought me a mirror for our bird and it had a seed holder where you can put her treat. Anyway, she will fight with her own reflection. At least I think that's what she is doing.

I may write more about my bird later. Well, I've got to go.

Produce from our Garden after a Week of Camping

We went camping from Tuesday morning to Friday evening. The next day, after we got home, we went out to our garden and picked and this is what we got. We picked yellow squash, carrots, peppers, onions, zucchini squash, different types of cucumbers I think, purple cabbage, tomatoes, and cauliflower. That is quite a bit of stuff for almost a week.

A Great Song

This is one of my favorite songs. It is sad but sweet.

A day with my friends

I hung out with my friends Barbara and Audrey from eleven to seven At eleven Audrey and her mom came to pick me up so we could hang out. And Barbara was going to drive down from her house. It was the best day ever.

A couple of the things we did were....

go to the farm

ride horses

went fishing

ate ice cream

hung out in the loft

hunted for frogs

walked on the roof

checked our E-mail


and last but not least we wrestled for the last thirty minutes

...and boy it was a rough thirty minutes .

My Friend Barbara

My friend Barbra is the best friend ever. She's all grown up but still a kid if you know what I mean. She jumps on the trampoline, she hangs out with us kids, she colors with us and she stays up until three in the morning with me. Once she invited me over to the Bender's where she was housesitting with her sister Kacey. That was when we stayed up until three in the morning. We had one of the jar like things of jelly beans from Costco. Well any way that was about 1/2 way full and when we were done eating them we could see the bottom. We had a bowl of cereal with a lot of sugar on top. And we had a bag of mixed candy from Costco and it was about 1/2 way gone too. We ate all that in one night. I am sure that we ate something else too. I cannot wait until Barbra, Kacey and I housesit at the Bender's again.She left a comment on my post about My Powerful Papa and asked, "Am I not a good enough friend?" So I had to type about her.
Barbra you are a good enough friend for me.

My Amazing Brother Matthew

Matthew is the second oldest boy in our family. He is 13 years old. He is an awesome brother. He is good at playing the PS2. Whenever Lucas and I want to play him he says you have to die 8 times and then hand the controller to the next person. Our turns are gone pretty quick. I love him... because he includes us when he plays with his friends, he plays games with our whole family, he plays Lego's, he jumps on the trampoline and he helps Lucas on his math. There are so many things I could say about him. But I am not going to go through them all right now.

A couple of the things he likes to eat is:
steamed broccoli
cooked carrots
ramen noodles
cream of wheat

Got to go, bye.

My Powerful Papa

My Papa is the best Papa anyone could ever have. He is loving, comforting, playful, healthy, strong, kind, fun, cool, crafty and understanding. If you had him as a papa you would be living the good life. A couple of the things that he does is...build Lego's, go camping, ride horses but not that often, go hunting and preaches.

Last night he kept saying to me (jokingly) that he was sorry that he was not a good enough papa. I didn't get why he kept saying that. So I asked him when he was in bed.

I said, "What did mom do? What did I do? What did us kids do?"

Mom said, "Ask the second question again."

So I asked the second question again and told me to ask Mom. I asked my mom and she said, "You did not say anything about him in the profile on your blog." So this morning I put him in my profile. And now he is happy.

Hey Papa, I love you so much.
