New Family Member

We have a new addition to our family. His name is Snowball, and he is a very white hamster. We saved him from a neighbor whos daughter was leaving for school this summer and could not take him with her. He has been a lot of fun so far rolling around in his ball all around the house. And true to most hamsters he has already escaped his cage. The second night we had him Mike and I woke up to find Snowball upstairs in our room at about 5 in the morning. I'm not sure how he got up there because we have his cage up on the counter in the living room and our door was closed. They sure are tricky little creatures.

I Love Swimming

I am 9 years old turning 10. Swimming is my fave thing in the whole entire world, because you get to get in the water. Right now I am doing swimming lessons, and after that I will be doing swim team. Right now I am learning the stroke "butterfly". My fave stroke is "breast stroke". In 1 week I start swim team. It will be fun. My swim team's name is the Dolphins. We swam against lots and lots of other swim teams, at swim meets. One time I got in first place of all the Dolphins.

Hands

I got an email about a month ago that showed a picture of four generations of hands. I liked it so much I wanted to take one of my own. My Nana visited us last weekend with my parents and I got the chance to take it.

Easter 2008


We had a fun and busy Easter. The boys enjoyed an Easter egg hunt at their day care. Then while at church all three kids got to participate in another egg hunt. And finally, after church we went to the Young's house and had a wonderful lunch and yet another egg hunt for all the kids.
