A couple things from my past week...

Last week Pear spent the night and had a slumber party with Taffi, Libbi and Aspen, I  got a couple pictures when she was here.  There's never a dull moment!  She made Jello, painted, watched Toy story and played toys non stop!  While she was here, Stephen and Paige went to Seattle and had an appointment with a specialist for Paige's Colistasis.  On Thursday Pear left and we headed to Home school sports!  There were barely any people there but it was still tons of fun!  Sam was there and is staying for two weeks (He's on spring break).  We played sprout ball with Sam and Robby, Robby won the first game then the second game nobody won...  It was fun!  Then came skating!  There were more people at skating then there where at P.E.  That was also alot of fun!   Afterwards  the Cooper's, Katie, Becca and Seth and my family all went to McDonald's (not the best food but it was fun visiting:)anyway My week was a Blast!   I also tried a new pizza crust recipe!  It was pretty good, I made a pineapple pepperoni, Cheese and  pepperoni.  Here are a couple pics I took.  

New Instruments!!!

I am so excited!!!  Hut, Racer and I all pitched in and bought an electric guitar!  It's a Fender and it's a shiny red (really cool looking!) I can't play a note, but I'm really excited to learn how to play!  Hutton and Racer and even Aspen, all pitched in for a Pearl Drum set it's pretty cool too (but I prefer the Piano and Guitar)  Hutton, Aspen and Racer are already are getting good at it (by good I mean not making too much racket:)  No they're doing well.  Anyway I'm very excited to learn how to play!

Shrek's Cabin!

Ok I have been meaning to post about shrek's cabin, so I am going to finally post about it! We have another really cool trail you can g

o on and i

t leads to Shrek's Cabin (well thats what we call it) and on this trail you can walk, ride bikes or horses. It is called shrek's cabin because

it looks alot like the cabin in the Shrek m

ovie and we just liked the name :) The frist time we heard about the Cabin My mom and dad went down to check it out and my mom said

 "This is Shrek's Cabin!" and dad replied "Yea!" and they came home to tell us Shrek's house is down the road! you guys should come see it! So Hut, Racer, Aspen and I, all went down to Shrek's Cabin! and it is a really neat place. There's a trail a little ways up past Shrek's Cabin, well up there is a carved wood chair! and a stone fire

place and stone steps that lead to different trails it's really cool!  Anyone want to come and see the Tower or Shrek's Cabin? :) Here are some pictures I took today.

What I think a real friend is...

I did a little research on poems about friends, and thought I would share it so here goes...

A friend is like a flower, A rose to be exact, Or maybe a new gate that

never comes unlatched.  A friend is like an Owl, both beautiful and wise,

Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost, whose spirit never dies.   A friend is

like a Heart that stays strong until the end. Where would we be in this World

without Friends?

I just thought this poem was interesting and thought I would share it! :)
