Quick update

Ok guys! All I have today is a quick little update. We spent Friday through Sunday at the farm, but we don't have any pictures. Besides, even if we did they'd be pretty boring. All that really happened was a truck load of gravel was shoveled, and the 3 feet thick layer of dirt in the house was cleaned up. (Ok, ok. Not really. But there was still a lot of dust :D )

We do have a lot going on this week though. Wednesday I have voice lessons, Thursday violin, then we're going to the MacDonald's house so Wes and I can practice again, and then we're going swimming at my grandma's house. (I think) Friday is the recital (FINALLY) and hopefully I'll have either pictures or video from that. Satuday we're going BACK to the farm, and Sunday we're going to the Gaslight Theatre again while my great-great grandma is in town.

So, the moral of the story is that hopefully I'll have some pictures to post soon! :D So stay tuned for that.

Until later!

Pima County Fair

Hey, so I know I was going to post a long time ago, but being sick isn't very much fun. Then, after we got better, we were really busy. But anyway, we went to the Pima County Fair on Monday, and had a BLAST! Mom didn't take too many pictures, but I figured I'd share what we do have. :)

We didn't go on any rides this year, we just walked around. This is David in Old Pueblo Hall on the tractor :)

Sorry this is kinda' dark and blurry

Ok, so we had 3 people come with us. First of all, we took Wes with us because he REALLY wanted to go, but his mom couldn't take him. So, he hitched a ride with us! Also, my great-great aunt is in town staying with my grandparents, and so she and Nana came too.

So this was the CUTEST little calf, but he absolutely would NOT look at the camera. :(

'Sorry, I don't like you very much' :)

Ok, maybe just for ONE picture!

And this was the mama. She wasn't very happy with us taking pictures of her baby. :)

So the whole entire night, Dad and Wes were having a competition to see who could see the most people they know. It was funny, because Wes saw like 15 people that he knew, and Dad didn't find any. He just kept calling out random names pretending that there was somebody there that he knew. Although, even with Dad making up names, Wes still won. :D I think that's what I was laughing at, because they were doing it ALL NIGHT LONG. :)

And of course, when you go to the fair, you HAVE to take pictures with the animal cut out things. :)

This is definitely my favorite. :)

Sorry this is pretty blurry. This is the girls driving the toy trains that they had there. I'm not really sure what they were doing, but they were having fun. :)

So, we said before we left that we WEREN'T going to get any food there, but ice cream is pretty hard to resist. :)

And that's all the pictures that were taken. Well, pretty much. I do have some on my iPod, but I'm not going to load them onto the computer. (That is unless Wes wants me to, and then I'll post it.) :)

So, that's all for now. I just got my hair cut yesterday, and I really like it, but I don't have any pictures or anything. Hopefully I'll get Hannah to take some.

Until later!

Sorry

Hey guys. Sorry, I know you were expecting another post from me today, but unfortunately it's not going to happen. Right now, while I'm typing this on my iPod, I'm laying in bed with a cool washcloth on my forehead and a temperature of 101.2. I've been hoarse all day, and can barely talk, but I was hoping that it would have been better by tomorrow, which is my singing lesson. Then, when I was absolutely freezing and couldn't warm up, I took my temperature. Yeah, there goes voice lessons out the window. Oh well. So anyway, that post is going to have to wait until tomorrow. Sorry! I'll try my best to get it finished and posted tomorrow morning, if I'm feeling better that is.

Easter

Hi everyone! Sorry I didn't post this earlier. Almost all of us are really sick, which is not fun. But we're starting to feel somewhat better, which is good.

So Saturday we went to our friend's the Goodale's house to celebrate Easter. It was SO much fun! Out of the 5 families that were there, only one of them didn't have a sick family member, but we all decided that since Easter is the most important holiday for Christians, that it was important for us to get together whether we were sick or not. Now, whenever Mom is somewhere, you can almost always expect pictures to be taken, unless we're having so much fun that she forgets to get the camera out. :D But anyway, here are the pictures!

Our host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Goodale. :)

Sweet little Jasmine

Mom kept trying to get a picture, but Wes wouldn't turn around. :D

Finally!!! :)

There were kids on the trampoline almost ALL afternoon

It was so cute. Nate walked around with his sunglasses on the whole time. :)

Daddy carving his super-special, deliciously-awesome turkey :)

I was crocheting (I know, I know. I'm addicted :D ) when Mrs. Fox and Mrs. MacDonald came over and we were talking about it. I'm really not sure what Seth was doing. :)

I believe that the kids were doing a Easter play, and Mr. MacDonald was reading from the Bible before it started. I don't know, though, because I was inside at the time.

Watching intently

Alivea in an angel costume. It's actually kinda' funny. Alivea has a sister named Angel. :D Normally she plays the angel, but she was sick and stayed home.

My little Adessah. :)

Now, while this was all happening outside, Wes, Azlan and I were inside. Mrs. Fox had brought jelly beans, and Wes and I were giving Azlan different ones and having him guess which ones they were. It was fun. :) Although, it probably wasn't such a good idea. See, those of you who know Azlan will understand this. Azlan is a VERY hyper, energetic, goofy person, and feeding him a bunch of jelly beans, which got him on a HUGE sugar high, probably wasn't very smart. I'll say why later. It was fun though. :D We didn't get any pictures of that.

Ok, so you know how I'm going to sing in a recital next month? Well, Wes and I went into the play room to try and practice, and this is why it was a bad idea to feed Azlan jelly beans. He came in with us, and it was a REALLY long time before we could actually do anything. He was being.... disruptive. Now, there were other reasons that kept us from actually practicing for awhile, mainly the fact that the original song is done in piano, and there isn't any guitar in it, so Wes had to try and convert the song into guitar. Then, I was singing it in a different key than it normally is, so he had to adjust that, and then find a rhythm that fit the song. I know, I know. I'm being kind of a pain. :) Although it probably didn't help much that he had only heard the song once.

Mrs. Addleman was helping the kids make crafts.

Mrs. Fox and Mrs. Goodale

So while the kids were working on crafts, Wes, Azlan and I started playing croquet. It was so much fun. :)

Another example of Azlan when he's on a sugar high. :D

Hey, I think this is my new profile picture!

Little miss Nina :)

Ok, now there's tons more pictures, (yeah, seriously) but Blogger is starting to act up somewhat, and I'm having a hard time posting any more pictures. So, I'm going to sign off for now, and finish posting later today, ok?

Until later!
