Family

It was great to have Garrett home. He takes after my Dad and is a great story teller. He told me some hilarious tales about being in the Marines. Next Tuesday we get to go to his wedding in Washington. Gavin, my older brother, hopes they have a chocolate fountain. I do too….tee hee :-)

For the trip my Marmee downloaded some Jonathan Park audio stories for my MP3 player. I like them because I learn a lot of scientific facts about creation, God, ancient artifacts and animals.

I like our new family picture. See me in my cool shades? It took us a while to get this just right.  I’m holding my younger sister, Gaela.

We started school last week. This year my Father is teaching us History and Science. He is a funny teacher. Of course my Marmee and I seem to laugh our heads off at no apparent reason too…. tee hee :-)

I like science better because science goes BOOM!  tee hee :-)

Family fun

Garretts visit 041

 

A  few days later we had a campfire. During Garrett’s stay

Garrett took us to Wal-mart, spent time with us ect.

Having him here was strange…at first then, again, I think it was strange for all of us.

Just reunited
