Butterfly House

 We went to the Butterfly House. Sometimes they landed on us and sometimes we could get them to crawl onto our fingers. There were lots and lots of beautiful butterflies. 

 There was a special place for cocoons and we
 could watch them come out of their cocoons whenever they were ready. It was fun. 
This one in this picture had just come out of the cocoon.

This brown butterfly is a Blue Morpho Butterfly. The picture below shows him with his wings open! A beautiful blue! 


This Blue Morpho Butterfly looks beat up!!! He's quite ragged!

Paint by Number

Me, Sydney, Haleigh, Elmise.

For Christmas one of  the gifts I got was  paint by number.  My animal picture is of penguin's. The other people got like Dalmatian, dogs, and parrots. It'll probably take all week to finish.

Armon worked on his later.

Chrismas

Aunt Pam and Uncle Gene gave us these disco hats and socks.

My horse riding helmet
is from my dad.

Waking  up at 5:50, singing out loud together, making people wake up for Christmas. We are at Grandma and Grandpa's house. My sister and I sang We Wish You a Merry Christmas. I got a helmet to ride horses and a disco hat with socks. I got horse book's too and pajamas. In my stocking I got a few pieces of candy and a huge life saver, then I got a paint by number:  penguins. 
This was a good Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa.

applebees

Christmas eve my dad took Grandma and Grandpa, Sydney and me to Applebee's for supper. I ate a corn dog with French fries, milk and water. Sydney had the same thing with apple juice. Grandma and Grandpa both had steak, mashed potatoes, and veggies, Daddy had steak and potatoes. It was all very good.   

Lizzy

Lizzy is a kind of old horse, I love her. She's a pony and I like riding her. She's a good pony. She's brown and very pretty. We go to a new barn now. It's called Great Lakes Equestrian Center. I like it there. I miss Bo but I like Lizzy. Bo was old too but he was a horse and Lizzy is a pony.

Halloween

     We were driving to the barn with Crystal. We had our costumes on. Crystal and Sydney and I get to the barn, we see a lot of people getting their horses ready for the Halloween games. Bo, my horse, and I won the first game! We had to ride straight beside the barrels and on one barrel was a rat. On another there was a little bucket. I trotted Bo, I had to grab the rat and trot to the barrel and drop the rat in! I won!!!
      People were shouting, "Yeah! Go Bella go!" I beat Rebecca!  
     After the race the owner had a bag of candy, I got to pick a piece. It was a king size Kit Kat! 

Camping

My mom and I went to Ludington for 2 days.  When we got there I saw that  I had  my own bed. It was really cute. My mom got a big bed. The last day it was raining. We got a little wet. The Second day we walked to the beach because it was hot. It was right next door to the cabin. When we got there I  started  my book I brought  with me. Then Mom thought it was a little cold so she wanted to leave.
