Pictures of the cutest kittens in the WHOLE world

Hi! Today I am going to write about our kittens! Kittens are so cute, right? My family and I have two cats. A old man ( name:Boy, but I call him Puddy) who is the same age as me; and a young little girl named Twister. Twister just had kittens; four of them. Here are some pictures of them:

This is a funky picture because the kitten has her eyes half closed.

This is Twister with Pebbles (Trixie's), Burrito (Blackspidey's), Pesky (Mine) and Tootsie (GirlofGod's).
This Pebble hissing at the camera:

I hope you like the kittens!

Arm: out of order.

It is a bit hard to type because:

I broke my second wrist. Someone. . . . . I will not say their name, ran out with a bike in front of me and my bike; I hit their back tire and went head-over-handlebars! I broke my wrist but did not shed ONE tear! This is my cast after my sugar splint:

It doesn't hurt any more, and I am going to get a smaller cast come May 6th. Well, see ya later!

Dry ice experiment

Last night we did a cool experiment with dry ice. My mom got a little bit of it, I poured water in the bowl with the ice in it and this happened:

I kept the cup in my hand and scooped up some foggy stuff. I poured it out but the picture of that was a big blur.

Here is us playing with the fog.

Ha ha ha. The fog felt like you were touching nothing.

I am a ....

You Are a Banana

You are mellow, easy going, and a total softie on the inside.
People find it really easy to get along with you. You suit most tastes.

And while you're very sweet, you're not boring or ordinary.
You have an attraction to the exotic, and you could show up anywhere... doing almost anything!

You are spirited, energetic, and a total kick to be around.
You're also quite funny. Your sense of humor is on the goofy side, and it fits you well.

What Type of Fruit Are You?

I am a banana, but I HATE bananas! I like watermelons, figs and cantaloupe!!!! Grandmaofmany, try, and tell me what kind of fruit you are! Everyone else, try! Kit, leave me a comment and tell me what you are.

Kit won last weeks game. Here is her poem:

In out front yard, we found a treasure. This great treasure was such a great pleasure!

We found a bunch of daffodil plants!

But it was sad because some people acted very bad.

They BURIED those poor daffodil plants! They should be spanked on the pants.

This weeks game is a nature game. Write a small poem about one of these nature scenes:

Forests

The tea party

My family and I went to Kit's house today for SuperGirl's tea party! I'm not used to drinking tea so it wasn't the best thing in the world, if you see what I mean. They had two types of tea, Black and wildberry. I liked wildberry better than Black tea. Kit likes Black tea better than wildberry. I had a fun time. We had cookies and other stuff. The cookies where so good dipped in tea (Wildberry not Black). Only the girls got to go to the tea party, the boys drove cars all around the school room. We talked in the tea room, Polly spilled my tea on me and Kit, and all over the table, AND on Kit's cloak. We cleaned it up and we did a small craft. All in all I had fun. Go to Kit's blog to see her tea party blog.

Our fun Thanksgiving trip!

We went to Sacramento for Thanksgiving! We had to go through a four hour drive

. But the reward was a delicious dinner of ham, turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, biscuits and pies of all sorts, YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY YUM! We had only one cousin but now we have TWO!! One cousins name is D for short, and the baby's name is K for short. I held babe K a lot and played with D a lot.

We left on Thursday and we slept on the living room floor. I slept like an angel (For sleeping on the floor) but I woke up when my Grandpa WHO, gets up about four in the morning to get his coffee. I stayed awake for about a hour then went back to sleep. In the morning Black Spidey and I went shooting! everyone else went to fairytale land and funderland. I am typing on our new laptop so I can't put up pictures BUT if you Click Here you can see some pictures of funder and fairy tale land.

I am truly sorry that my Dad didn't bring a camera to the shooting range so you could see my and Black Spidey shooting the twenty-two pistol and the twenty-two rifle

. The range was so busy the we had to wait a good fifteen minutes before we got a spot to shoot. The about a hour after we got to the range a car full of young men and one young lady pulled up next to us. I was loading my gun and then I sat down on the table between our shooting group and theirs. I had my ear muffs on so I couldn't hear much of the talking going on next to my but this is what I heard: (When you see this:..... means I can't hear)

(The young lady to the young men) "What are we doing here?" (One young man) "..........." (Lady) "....... I don't ........" (young man) " Well you are hanging with the guys. I mean look at the little girl (pointing at me) she's loading and shooting her own gun!" I felt a bit of pride (Not in a bad way) I mean someone really noticed that I was loading, shooting and then unloading my own gun! That group left and another group of young men pulled up next to us. A young man asked my Dad if he could sit on the table too. My Dad said yes, the man sat down next to Black Spidey who was shooting the rifle. Black Spidey handed me the gun and then I sat down at the table and then loaded my gun and started shooting. The man looked at me and said, "Hey you should try to keep your left elbow under the gun as much a you can." Then he got up and went to his friends and WISPERED (But I could just hear) "Look at that chubby scope in that girls gun!" When we left I said to my Dad "The guy sitting next to me said that I had a chubby scope." He said "Yeah, but did you see his scope? It was a little straw thing, Ha ha ha ha ha. But yours is about ten times stronger than his."

We went home and had pizza, and then we played out side some more. And the next day is when we go to the biggest swap meet that I have ever seen. But Grandma was still sleeping so I thought that I would stay home so I could clean up for her. Trixie and Polly stayed home too. When Grandma got up she took my to Mcdonalds to get breakfast. Then we walked down to Starbucks Coffee to get hot chocolate. When we finished that we went to a park that was about a five minute walk from Grandmas house. My aunt has a cute dog named Chai. (Ch-I) We played with Chai and then we went back to Grandmas house. In about a half an hour the rest of the family came home. We packed up and went home. All in all, Grandmas house is the funnest place in the world.

A sad sad sad sad sad story : (

I have a sad story to tell. You know how we went on vacation for Thanksgiving? Well we had a great time, but when I came back home, I went to go see my pets and then I saw it! My baby, my pride and joy (of my pets) was DEAD!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Spear was DEAD!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so sad I almost cried my head off, but I didn't cry at all. I sadly went out of my room and slowly went to my Mom. She was ordering pizza, I said "mom," then I waited "mom" I said again. "What?" she said. "Mom, Spear is dead." "Oh! I am sorry. Dad did you hear? Her scorpion died." I left and told everyone that there was a funeral RIGHT NOW . They said "For who?" I showed them, and we all went outside (everyone but Black Spidey! WHO was more interested in his new toy!) I buried my favorite pet SADLY! We said a few words and then covered his grave with flowers and then went inside. (My pet had food and water inside his cage when I buried him. So I didn't kill him) So now everybody take off their hats in respect and take a moment of silence to remember Spear Spike Scorp.

Dah dah dah dah (Music) Now leave a comment if you have something to say.

I was mad, I don't like Chicken and I didn't want to make Chicken. But my Mom said that if I made the Chicken she would make a picture blog. I said O.K so lets get started.

I first washed my hands then opened up the Chicken.

Took out the insides.

Spiced them up and put them in the pan.

Washed my hands.

Cleaned the sink.

SCF: Pillows

I am starting Sew Crafty Friday, so this is my first entry on Sew Crafty Friday.

I made these pillows for my BEST friend in the whole world..........Kit!
(She does not know, but she will when she reads this blog) I will give hers to her on Tuesday. I didn't have a pattern for this, I just had this weird fabric and Moms sewing machine

. I turned the fabric inside out and sewed around and I hand wash the fabric. Then because I didn't want to wait for them to dry I ironed them flat and dry. I went around the edge with black thread so the looked Mickey Mouse like. I stuffed them and sewed up the hole. They are cute.

Happy Halloween!

We went Trick or treating this year. This is the first time in my life that we have gone trick or treating. We always just go to parties. This year we went to Kit's house for a party. Here we are in our costumes.

Left to right:
GirlofGod is a nymph
BlackSpidey is a ninja
Trixie is a princess
Polly is a ladybug
I am an Indian
BabyJ is Black Spider-man
Jack is a Ninja Turtle
and lastly, Miss Banana is a clown

Mom and I made bags for our candy to go in. I helped some of the others with making their bags. Mom made some, too. Everyone except for me shares their candy in one of these bags. I just have a gallon sized Zippy bag for me.

A big tree fell on my dad's Jeep in a storm that we had on Monday> Here it is.

I made dinner on that first day that we started dissecting the tree. I made dinner for 11 people, because our neighbor was here. Here we (not me) are eating in the tree.

We went to the pumpkin patch and had a great time. Here we are with our very own small pumpkins for each of us.

Well, I have to go. Bye!!

Spear Spike Scorp

What do you think this is? Well, Drum roll please, tah tah tah tah tah tah tah tah! MY PET SCORPION! How I love him. : ) His name is Spear Spike Scorp

. I feed him crickets, that cotton ball is his water ball : D and he lives right by my bed ( On my shelf that is by my bed).

If you hate Scorpions you are crazy, I LOVE Scorpions. I help in the nursery in my church, the lady that I help said that I was dangerous when I told her that I wanted a Scorpion. She said to babyJ "You have a dangerous sister." You know what? I got my Scorpion the very same DAY! O.K here's how I got Spear. A lady at my church always brings dead Scorpions for me to look at whenever she comes to church (Because she lives far away and her house has Scorpions as pests). She brought me two that week, one was dead and the other one she said she was trying to keep alive. The poor little thing it was so dried out but it still moved. I showed everyone in my church. Then I asked my Mom if I could set him free. She said "No" so I asked my pastor if he thought that if I gave it water it would live he said maybe. So I asked my Mom if I could keep it and do you know what she said? "No." So I asked my Dad, because he had a Huge Scorpion when he was sixteen. You know what he said? "YES". I was so happy I ran out to my Mom and said " Daddy said yes! Daddy said yes!" I rolled up a square of T.P and filled it up with water and dropped it in the zip lock baggie that Spear was in. We went home and in the car I was praying that my Scorp would not die. When I got in the house I put the bag on the counter and to my delight the Scorpion started stinging the counter! My Dad and I whipped up the glass cage and now my favorite pet lives in my room! At first GirlofGod said "You are not keeping that Thing in our room!" But then she got used to Spear being in our room. I love my pet.
