P.S. Ancarthia can not be one of the words. ;-)

Flowers

Here are the pictures of the flowers in my backyard.

This is my favorite kind of flower, but I don't know what it is.

These are allamondas.

Aren't they beautiful?

Poll Answer

My favorite color is chocolate brown! All of those colors have been my favorite at one time, but currently it is chocolate brown. All of the options had equal answers, but I voted C B at that last minute (literally!) so it turns out only two of you knew my favorite color (or guessed correctly). Well, now you all know.

Don't you feel better?

The Simple Things

Tonight the whole family (including Hobbes) went on a walk. Sometimes it's just peace and quiet of simple things like that that help me realize how lucky I am to be in my two wonderful families: the L family, and God's family.



It also helps me realize how strange our dog is.

Love,

Attack of the Great Big Pink Army!

On Monday morning, we were attacked by a Great Big Pink Army.

It was horrific.

But was I just going to stand there and let them win?

No way.

With my Super Amazing Fighting Powers, I took them down. Heh heh heh.

Well, maybe it was just one. But I took him down. I took him down hard.

Or her. I never really can tell.

Hobbes: Before and After Grooming Pictures

Before the great trip to the groomers...

And after!! TA DA!!

Up next: Attack of the Great Big Pink Army!

Howdy!

SOSOSOSO sorry I haven't written in forever*.

I guess I have a lot to catch up on!

My mom and I went to the first Beautiful Girlhood event on February 22. It was a lot of fun, but her plant is now seven inches tall and mine has not even peeked up over the soil. :-(

I recently started horseback riding lessons. I have learned so much already, and I really love the horse I ride. His name is Travel. Right next door are the stables where the B's work, so I get to visit with them after my lessons, which is nice because I hardly ever get to see Meli anymore.

We were hit by the flamingos. It was on a Wednesday. That is all I know.

Hobbes got a haircut!!! Before and after pictures to come. (Really!)

Today is my Mommy's birthday!! She is 29. ;-)

Okay, so I guess that isn't a lot. But I am sure i am forgetting something. Oh well.
