The boys are here- week 6

This is week 6 and is my last post.

We made a fort in the dog kennel.

I stored all of my squirt guns in it.


We all were going to take a nap but I don't think we did.


It was cozy.


We had fun riding the little dump truck down the driveway.








Dillan trying to do a wheelie!


One crash.



Oh, another crash!


Notice we have our helmets on!


We rigged up a rabbit trap with carrots for bait but we didn't catch one.


Grammy ordered a Buzz apron from ebay so she could use the pattern and make more. Everyone wanted to wear it.


Wednesday I made spongebob macaroni and cheese.


We helped Grammy make some bookmarks to sell.

Grandpa was notified that he got drawn for turkey and for deer. Papa got drawn for deer also at the same time. Squirrel season opens the same day as the turkey season and that's the same area that papa can scout for deer so we'll be back up here on October 1st. I need to start getting ready to take hunter safety so I can apply for a junior license next year for deer and elk.


Thursday Devan pooped outside. He didn't want to go inside because Grammy wanted him to "take a rest". It ended up that he had to take a shower and then take a rest but I don't think he actually fell asleep.


I made a banana creme pudding pie. It was really good. I can eat it for the rest of my life.


Me and Dillan rode our bikes down the hill in the back and were racing. I just about wiped Dillan out. After that, Grandpa made us quit!

We didn't know Grammy took this picture. All three of us are sleeping in this mess.

This morning Dillan came in the house crying because a lizard bit his nose! We didn't feel sorry for him because he's always playing with lizards and tormenting them.

We went to the library for an animal show this morning. This picture isn't very good but it's Stumpy, the desert ,that is missing a leg and can move around with the help of a wheel.

This is a rattlesnake. He also had scorpions and all kinds of lizards but Grammy didn't get any pictures of those.

This is a 13 foot long python. The guy said that he'll grow up to about 25 to 30 feet long.









We really liked the show.


These are rocks that we tumbled while we were here. We picked them up in the wash and look how they turned out. We made some necklaces out of them.


Well, that's all from me. Papa is coming up today to get us so Grammy and Grandpa will be able to have some peace and quiet. We have decided that next summer we're going to build a wood car with big wheels to ride down the back hill. Devan says it has to be big enough so he can be in the middle.


Good bye. We have to get ready for school. I hope you liked my posts.

Fishing was fun

Monday we went fishing at Black Canyon Lake. The water was pretty low.

Devan is going to try to catch a fish.


I'm looking through the tackle box but decided to use a worm.


Devan and me fishing.


I caught the first fish.





This is the fish that Devan caught on Grandpa's pole.



Snack time for Devan.


Dillan and Grandpa fishing.

I got two fish. Grammy got one and Devan got one. Dillan tried hard but only got a couple of bites.

There were fat little chippers everywhere.

This guy stole one of Devan's pretzels and came back for some cheese!



Grandpa and me cleaned the 4 fish.











We all had to taste the fish. I actually thought it was OK but I had to dip the pieces in melted butter. Devan and Dillan didn't like it at all.


Grammy thought they wouldn't eat the trout so she fixed the rest of the crab legs for them.



We hope we get to go fishing again this week.

Grammy's birthday

Grammy's birthday was Saturday.

We made her stay in bed so we could serve her breakfast.




She opened all of her presents.


This is the card we found for her.


Dillan bought Grammy an egg cracker and it works.


Devan bought Grammy this to keep the spiders away.


I bought the pink flamingos for the flower garden.





Grandpa and I made a strawberry dessert with angel food cake. The cake kinda flopped!


But it will work for the recipe.


It looks OK.


We went down to Pam and Steve's for dinner. This is Devan before he got sick and barfed.


I put alot of candles on the cake.


Pam had some trouble lighting all of the candles.






I blew out the candles before anyone else could.


We had to go home early because Devan was sick. I think Grammy had a happy birthday.

PS. Only one more week here before we go home.
