guess what!
Guess what!?... One of our goats had two babies. We named them Velvet and Haven named the other one Silky. Silky has a black head and all little curly white on the rest of her body. Velvet has a red head and white on the rest of her body. They are so cute. And Guess What!!? Our rabbits had babies. We got 5 little babies. We could pet the babies all over. The mama still fed them so that is good. Next month chicks are gonna hatch. We have some in the incubator right now. This is our second time doing it. Velvet almost died but we brought her inside and nursed her back to health and now they are two playful little monkeys.

Scary Sadie
|
This morning I went to see my baby sister SADIE. I grabbed her and ran in my room. I gave her elastics and said "Throw these elastics in Robin's room. Go now!" and Sadie ran in Robin's room. Robin said "Sadie! come in. Sadie threw elastics all over the room. Robin yelled at sadie and told her to pick them up and give them back to KIKI. Sadie picked them up and ran back to me and said "Here KIKI, elastics!" I told her to keep the elastics and throw them in Ellie's room. She ran in Ellie's room and threw them in and ran away and ran back to me. Mom said "Hey! Where did these elastics come from?" -- Carrie

Last night my dad let Sevdi out . In the morning I went to see my dad . He was in the shower. Then he came out. I went in when he was dressed. He said "Look there is Sevdi." I ran out on the deck and saw Sevdi . It smelt like a skunk. I looked at Sevdi and she had mud on her and she had grass in her mouth. I ran to tell dad what Sevdi looked like. We went out to look at her and Dad said "NO!! Porcupine quills!" Sevdi had porcupine quills in her mouth and I hd thought that it was grass! Dad took some pliers and got about 15 of them out. There are still two more in her mouth. I kept the porcupine quills in a tiny little bag that mom gave me. I still have them now. Got to go outside now. --Carrie

What did I do to day
|
Once in my free time I went to go see sevdi and the goats. The horses don't usually pay any attention to me when i go see them. The goats love me. I can tell because sometimes i give them grain and i spill grain all over them and then they follow me everywhere like we are playing follow the leader. This time when i went, Sevdi was the one who paid the most attention to me. She put up her paws and scratched me and I just hugged her and gave her love. All the goats usually go up on the bale so i said "Sevdi! Go!" I brought my hand up and pointed at the bale. She crouched  down and pounced on the big round bale. Then i said "Come down Sevdi!" She jumped down. I gave all the goats love and went "bye-bye".
THE
END

The Best Christmas Pageant Ever
In the book there were six kids. None of them knew Jesus. They were bad kids and they burnt down people's houses and they smoked and they beat on one another. They didn't have a daddy and their mom worked so they all looked after each other in a bad way. They went to church because another boy said that there were drinks and yummy candy and pop and desserts in sunday school and it wasn't true. They came to church. They were going to do a christmas play at the church. They joined it and they got all the best parts. They got Joseph, Mary the wisemen and the angel of the Lord. They got the parts because they said they would beat on everybody else if they aditioned for those parts. When they got there they all didn't do it right and they all did it wrong and they had never heard the Christmas story before and they thought the angel of the Lord was like a cool comic book character. When they asked all kinds of questions the other kids thought about the christmas story different. In the end all the 6 kids were all changed. Instead of Frankinsence and Myrh and gold, they gave Jesus their christmas ham instead which was all they had. The girl who played Mary all of a sudden began to cry in the play because the Christmas story meant something to her now. In the beginning, everyone in the town thought the christmas play would be terrilble but they showed up to see how bad it was but it was actually the best one they ever had in years. Carrie.

WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY
|
One morning Mom called us together. She said it is WONDERFUL WEDNSDAY. On WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY we go to the POOL. Sadie said "Candy?" and "Carly?" and everyone cheered. We went to the pool. Me, Brittany, Carly and Auntie Shauna and Darren went out into the deep end. We took a big huge board and put it in the deep end and made it tip. It was awesome! One of the lifeguards came up and said "Do you need a lifejacket for the little boy?" and Darren said "I'm TEN!" Then Auntie Shauna said "No, he doesn't need a lifejacket. Funny that the lifeguard didn't think that I needed a lifejacket. After swimming we went to McDonalds. We had fries, cheeseburgers and chicken nuggets. That's all that Robin wants and that's all that we had. She took one huge fry thing for herself and then she took a half of another big one and me and ellie only got a little bit.

sevdi and the vets
One evening, me and dad went to do chores. we called sevdi and she wouldn't come. We went over to the chicken barn and saw sevdi. She was curled up in a little ball. Dad took her and put her in the pen for a little while and then went inside. I hoped she would be o.k. Dad said "I'm going to take Sevdi to the vet carrie, do you want to come?" and i said YES!! We went to the vets. I didn't think it would look like it looked. There was some dog food there, some leashes and some candy for kids and treats for dogs. They asked what breed of dog sevdi was. Dad said Kangle. They looked on their chart of animals and they couldn't find the kind that dad said so they added it to their list. They said to go in a room with Sevdi so we walked in the room. Then they took Sevdi and I don't know what they did with her because they took her to another room and we had to stay in the first room. We had to leave her there overnight. The next day they called dad and they were going to keep her for another night so i really really hoped that she was o.k. We took her back on Monday and they had shaved her legs. They didn't know what had happened to her but they thought that she might have gotten into something bad. One time when we were outside we saw this deer leg. Robin said "Oh! Maybe Sevdi ate a sick deer and then she got sick!" Now sevdi is o.k. Dad tied a pole to her and yesterday she was running out in the feild with a pole tied to her. All the horses followed her. Dad said that maybe all the horses think it's funny seeing a dog with a pole tied to her. I hope that she doesn't run away and get into bad things now that she has the pole attached to her. We had to do that to Maisie too when we had her but dad was a little more harsh with her. She learned but she was a little scared of Dad after. Dad doesn't want to be too harsh with Sevdi now that he knows more. --carrie

sevdi and Gaunt
One time gramps was over and we were walking Charlie and Tony (the baby horses) over to our house. We had Sevdi along with us. The horses got scared of sevdi but they didn't get all mad. When we got out of Grandma and Grandpas driveway, Charlie reared up and fell down right on the ice on the road on his ribs. When we got close to the driveway to get into our house, Sevdi ran away. She ran over to Gaunt's. Gaunt has a Buck deer who is penned up in his yard. Sevdi chased and ran around the deer barking. Me and Gramps jumped in the car and drove over there as fast as we could. Gaunt ran out of his house and had his gun loaded and had it pointing at the dog. Then he yelled at Gramps and said "If your dog ever comes back here i will shoot him!" Gramps said "You better not, this is Curt Jespersens' dog!" Gaunt put down his gun and was embarassed. He said "are you Dr. Sloan?" He begged gramps to not tell anyone what he did. Then we took Sevdi home. Dad said that he would tie her up onto a pole and make her tug it around. --carrie

We got to Hawaii late at night. In the morning we went to the beach. It was awesome. As soon as we were done at the beach we went back to the hotel, It was just a couple blocks away from the beach. We went into the big huge COLD pool upstairs and there was a hot tub too. We did that everyday. One day we all went to the beach. Dad took me and Darren surfing. Darren went on the boogie board and me and dad went on the surf board. When Darren got too tired, he went on the surf board and i went on the boogie board. The boogie board was fun. A boogie board is a thing that i don't know how to describe. It is smaller that a surfboard and people can ride on it and it won't sink. It's like a big flutter-board. I was mad at Darren because he caught more waves than i did. One day we were all waiting for Grannie. We waited for a really long time. I thought i saw Grannie's airplane come in. I was at the beach and i could see a whole bunch of airplanes going by and landing. In one second i thought i saw Grannies' . I asked mom if i we could go back to the hotel to see if she were there already. We went back to the hotel. Grannie was not there. Dad kept knocking on the door to tease us to see if we would come and think he was Grannie. Robin went out to tease us too but then she saw someone in the hallway called... GRANNIE!!!! Dad said "Grannie's here" and i said " I don't believe you!" Then i said "I will believe you this time. I ran out into the hallway standing so i ran and hugged her as hard as i could. As soon as Grannie got in she got a whole bunch of groceries and we had also just gone shopping and we were all saying " we just bought groceries grannie!" and all the groceries wouldn't fit in the little fridge because it was as big as a box. We had to eat the groceries so we ate 20 waffles for snack that night. MMMM MMM. ---carrie

In the morning
In the morning i wake up and then i get dressed and do everything i need to do in the morning. then i go find dad, wake him up and he gets ready to go. We get our shoes and coats on and go outside. We let Sevdi out to roam around. this time i tried to find dad and he was way downstairs sleeping and i had to check the whole house and it was very tiring. I think he was sleeping down there because it is Gramps' bed and it is the most comfortable bed in the house. When we went out, we let Sevdi out and she walked around and all the horses were close to her pen. Dad gave the chickens water and feed and the rabbits too. We took Sevdi's food, put it out by the road and she ate it while we went back inside. Then Dad left and i stayed inside. I had english muffins and hot chocolate with little tiny marshmallows in it. It was very very good.

Sadie's Birthday
|
On Friday we had Sadie's birthday. It was a lot of fun because there were a lot of people there. Mom made mashed potatoes, corn, sausages and chicken and salad, and gravy. The things that i took was corn, chicken, mashed potatos and a drink of pop. We went downstairs to play tag. If you tag somebody, then they are it. It's called normal tag.  When it was time to open presents, Sadie opened them all quick. One present she really liked was a little horsie that mom got her and a little kittie that auntie shauna got for her. Those were her favorite things. I could tell because she was smiling and playing with them a whole bunch. She also had one other thing. A little baby in a stroller with a "susie". That's what grandma got her. We had ice-cream cake. It was very very good. After that we went dowstairs to play again. We played only one round and then we sat down. Then Darren said, "How about we go play outside... we can play flashlight tag" and everyone said "YEAHHHH!" and we all ran outside.  The game we played outside was flashlight tag but first Darren split us into teams. There was one team with three, and the two other teams only had 2 and we ran around holding hands. If you got touched, your whole team had to be "it" and got to use the flashlight to find the other teams. The flashlight was very small. Another game we played was where we had to find a big huge shovel and also a pole that was very but short. First one team had the shovel. We hid it somewhere and would line up and the other team could run right through. When we said go, the other team would run and find the pole. When they found it they would have to go touch the trailer or the quad. Once i said, let's look on the grass so we stepped on the grass and found it. We started running to the quad. I handed it to Brittany because she was on my team. She started running and stood on the quad and raised it above her head and yelled "We Got It!!!" They started belly laughing at us. Brittany looked carefully at it, but it was the wrong shovel. I walked away a little ways and yelled back... "I wondered why it felt so light!!" Everyone belly-laughed again.

Things I did
One day we went out to hunt with dad. We were going to get white-tailed deer. Instead, we got 2 grouse and a raven. As soon as we stopped, Robin started running and looking around with Darren. Darren layed down and Robin came bouncing through the bush over mine and Dad's head and over Darren's head and Robin tripped on a rock that Darren had and fell over onto her belly and started belly laughing. It was very funny. We were hunting with somebody and they came as soon as we shot the birds. Their names were Paul and Chris. We started walking a little ways and we didn't find anything except for another grouse but Dad missed it. We walked even a little farther and we found a deer stand. There was a big huge bush that you could walk right through. Robin found this big huge stick caught between some other ones and a big huge tree right next to it. She started jumping on it and it felt like a trampoline. After that, we walked back. There were a lot of puddles and bogs. It was wet. Then we got in our car and drove away. After a little while, Chris and Paul called us. They said they got a deer. Dad said he thinks it might be in the same spot.

Yesterday and Today
Today we played music. Everytime we play music, when it comes to an exciting song like Will the Circle Be Unbroken? or Soldiers' Joy or The Girls I Left Behind, something starts to happen. My chair starts moving. My insides jiggle all over. I got up early this morning to give Sevdi some food with Dad. When Dad let her out she started barking and we didn't know what she was barking at until we turned and saw 3 deer. They were white-tails. I could tell because they have white tails. Sevdi got to the fence and then she looked at me. Then I said "Go get em!" and then she started running after them. We thought she wouldn't come back. We went to Gaunt's place on the other side. I thought i saw some deer and i think it was because it moved and ran into the bushes. Then I wished that Sevdi would start barking and then we would know where she was. Dad said that dogs like that start chasing deer and then you never ever see them again. Then we heard a bark behind us. We looked and it was Sevdi. First she didn't know who we were then she saw us more. She started running. i had a prickle in my shoe. I went down to get it out and Sevdi started trying to get on me and see if i was okay. We brought her back to where the goats were. She went to go eat. We went inside to eat cereal and everyone woke up. That was today. Now I'll tell you about yesterday. Dad took us for a drive. He was going to see if we could hunt on somebodies' property. As soon as we got there there were only 3 dogs and no one else there. Darren and Mom and Dad said that one looked like Zip. I don't remember Zip because I was only a baby. Dad walked over to the door and rang the doorbell but no one came. We were going to drive back home but we saw a porcupine. Dad wouldn't stop, then he said alright, and he let us chase the porcupine in the suburban. It put up it's quills and started running. Then it came to a little tree and started climbing. It's face looked weird, I couldn't see it very good. He ran like a baby crawling. It was funny and fun. We also saw three grouse. We went over to this place and Dad said "Whoah! Look!" and we all looked. There were 7 Elk! One had big big huge antlers and dad said that in 2 more days he could shoot that one. We also saw 8 deer, and mom saw one beaver. When we drove back there was a white-tailed buck, but it wasn't too big, in our driveway. That was yesterday and today!!!

toothless grin and skinless knees
Today i woke up feeling very very very happy. mom said to me "we're going to go to the dentist today." When we went, they took me into the back room first. They thought i was going to get the same as Darren but really i wasn't. then they said to me, so you're ready to take some teeth out... mom had said to me when we were together... you are going to get a filling in!... and THEY said i was going to get some teeth out and i did not get it!. I didn't say anything because i was too shy. Then as soon as i got out mom looked at me and they had pulled 2 teeth out and put it in a tiny treasure chest that fit 2 eye teeth in it!. Mom didn't know what to say because she didn't want me to have my teeth out, she just wanted a filling like robin. Mom told them that i was only supposed to get a filling, not 2 teeth pulled out and a filling. Then they said they wouldn't charge mom! then when mom was driving out, she was talking to dad on the phone and she told him the whole story. One lady was comming and mom just drove out further and as soon as she went past, she waved her fist and i thought she was going to yell at mom through the window. Then when i got home we were playing races outside. I said "go" and everyone ran around the suburban 2 times. Then i skinned my knees on both knees and made holes in my pants.  Then Auntie shauna came over and then i had to go. bye.

The funeral
We went to the funeral and played music there. We played Will the circle be unbroken, boil the cabbage down, ashokan farewell, and the tennessee waltz. When we were starting to play the songs we had an electronic keyboard and when mom started playing it was out of tune and she didn't know what happened. It was in a different key. A lady came up behind her and pressed a button twice and then it was right. Then we played and they cried. And then after the funeral i was following sadie around in the sanctuary. I sat on a seat and she climbed up beside me and there is a window behind us. Three girls poked their heads up and ran away. Then they came in and Robin and Ellie came with me. The girls came. One that was very very very funny, sat on a chair and said "Hi Jesus!!" She was saying it to a little statue of Jesus on the cross. Then they all asked us to play tag but we said no because mom had told us not to run around in there. There was a little jar up in the front of the church. One of the kids told us that there was ashes in it. One girl told robin: "My grandma is in that jar!"One of the girls,,, i think the oldest one said "we haven't seen our grandma for a very long time and now she's gone."
