New Dog!

We got a new dog named Nakona.  We really like her.  This is a picture of her.

This is Nakona when she is in trouble.  It looks like she feels guilty.  

This picture is of the silly dog jumping up when we tried to take the picture of her.  She licked the camera, which I don't think would be too tasty.

There was a kitty on the porch, and Nakona was on it.  Nakona just looked at it.

Really Fast-Growing Trees

Before.  

After.

We had trees moved from the homestead down the road.  And now we have really fast-growing trees.  It was really fun watching them being moved in.  I was in school when they started, and then when I came back from school, it looked nothing like our house.

 They used this big truck to bring the trees in.  Now we have lots of trees.  Here's a picture under this writing.

Brinda's door

Here is the sign Brinda put on her closet door.  She's moderately protective of her room, but NO ONE is allowed near the closet.  It's been up a couple months, but the Zack Brinkman addition is new.  I like how she ends the note with Ole`, BFF.  I think that's how I'll start ending my notes.

BFF

Halloweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!

This is me, my sister and my cousin on Halloween - our second Halloween in Sheldon.  It was the best ever!

Neave was a gorilla, my cousin Cullen was a lion, I was a bat, and Brinda was a witch.  And it was awesome!  We went to my grandpa's house for supper.  We went trick or treating before we went to my grandpa's house, and we even trick or treated there. 

Bye Bye Concrete

Our garage used to be an old hog building.  The walls between the pens were made of cement.  We had to cut them out to make room for the car.

When we cut our garage out, I broke out one of the walls with a sledge hammer.  The hammer was really heavy.  I wore the ear protectors because the saw was really loud.

Mud Puddle

from Neave

Hi.  Me and Cullen got in the mud puddle and Cullen was scared but I wasn't, and then I got in it.

We dug up a tree to transplant it, and while Chris and I were busy, Neave and Cullen got the hose, filled the hole with water, and jumped in.  And when Tucker found out, he couldn't resist either.
