Vacation

Abby and I braving the unknown.
Boat racing, I won 2nd place!

Exploring creeks w/ Gracie!

Hanging around a cold campsite.

Roasted marshmallows- a camping favorite.

The Lagoon

On our big hike we discovered this amazing swimming hole we named it The Lagoon
Us at The Lagoon

I had to carry a large pack!

Abby and I get ready to hike!

swimming and hanging around camp

Hanging out in the water with mom.
I swam out a ways to get to this rock, I had to cross these rapids to get there and of course my brother and sister wanted to come, well the rapids began to scare Daniel and dad had to come rescue him! Dad ended up losing his flip-flops.

The rapids in front of the rock I was on, I just slid right down them.

Playing in the water!

We're getting ready for a day hike in this picture, as you can see Daniel is real exited.

Quilt

This is my quilt, actually it's not done yet. I still have to put the back on and quilt it together. It has all my favorite things on it. It has baseballs, dogs, horses, stars, musical notes, penguins, snow, and alot of crazy fabrics. I actually started it at my birthday in December, but I really hadn't worked on it alot since we moved.

Sewing the edges on!

Here is our team picture

Warming up before the game.

This picture was after we won our first game.

We decorated our car for the trip to state, you can also notice that we finally got our Texas licence plates.

In this picture I just hit the ball to left field and am fixing to drop the bat and take off running two girls scored for an RBI single.

Compare this picture of Abby to the ones I first posted of her. She's SO big. Of course though she's not to big to snuggle up in your lap. She really is a VERY good dog. Nice and polite. Yesterday she actually ate a bee!!! Her whole face swelled up and she kept choking!! She looked SOOO pitiful, the vet said to give her a people benedril and she slept SO good! I love her!!!

Our new treehouse dad built us!!

BUSY, BUSY

I know I haven't posted in a while so I'll do two posts today.

school work

Gracie wants to be a vet when she grows up, here she's vetting

Here's my new BF AnnaJoy, we're at homeschool field day doing the three legged race.

Here's some photos of me and Abby, we took her to the vet today. She actually loved it! I have s-ball practice three days this week plus a game! Busy, busy, busy!!! We are black and called the stealers. Grrr!! See ya later, bye!

Llamaing

Hey everybody! Busy week!! I've been at a llama show all week with my cousin, Elana. She did good! 2nd place overall. Llamas are HARD work!! We've been walking them, feeding them, and shoveling out stalls! They had to do crazy things like walk through water and a ball pit, look in mirrors and jump over hurdles! I don't think Rising Starr (her llama) liked it very much! I have my first s-ball practice tonight. Be praying for me! Abby is getting so big!

Bye, Al-A

Abby slept ALL night last night and didn't wake anyone up!!!!!!!! Woo-hoo!!!!!!!!! No accidents either!! These are some pictures of Abby doing school with us. It is hard to focus! We also have some pics of Ab's 1st bath! She LOVED it!! In several pics (like the top one of Abby in the yard) You can see her little monkey who makes a monkey noise and I named Monkey Boy (after dough boy) Whose leg is chewed off! She LOVES that toy!!!

Later, Ally
