Point Defiance Zoo

I went to the Point Defiance Zoo in Tacoma for a field trip. I bought six things at the gift shop: a turtle necklace for me, a shark snow globe for Ethan, a tiger back scratcher for dad, and "Kids Zone" magnet for Ryan, an elephant magnet for Morgan, and a Magnet filled with water and a floating penguin in it for mom. I had a disposable camera and took a lot of pictures. there were elephants, a tiger, an aardvark, lemurs, monkeys, tapirs, an arctic beluga, polar bears, walruses, meerkats, puffins, penguins, otters, seals, red wolves, porcupines, a lynx, and a lot more. We left the school at 7:15 A.M. and got back to the school at 7:00 P.M. We had to stop Indian John Hill to go to the bathroom.

Seaside, OR

This Memorial weekend, I went to Seaside, OR, as you can tell from the title. It was REALLY fun. On Saturday, when Nana, Grandpa Gary, Maddy, and Gracie came, we did bumper cars, went to the beach, and bought stuff at a toy store (a little smaller than Mr. Magorium's) and a store with a ton of sweat shirts and shirts. We celebrated Ethan's birthday.There was chocolate cake and double vanilla ice cream. He got a tool box with tools from Grandpa Gary and Nana. He also got $15 from Maddy, Gracie, and their parents. Nana and Grandpa Gary took me with them and Maddy and Gracie.

Sorry! :(

I'm sorry there aren't any pictures here. I don't know how to and Morgan won't help me. Sorry!

Broken Window

Mom was taking all of us kids to pick up our pigs in Othello. She backed out and didn't realize that dad's goose-neck trailer was behind us. We hit the front of it and shattered the back window. Glass was everywhere and the back of the car was dented and the tail light was cracked and hanging on by a chord. Mom called dad so he could come pick us up to get our pigs. Now, there is plastic on the back of the car.

Park Family Reunion

On Saturday, there was the Park family reunion at Nana's house in Montesano. There was also an Easter egg hunt. I didn't get much on the hunt, yet I had to give Ethan a whole container of Whoppers that I found! After the hunt, Lauren Tangvald (my step-cousin), Maddy Lucas (my cousin), and I would run over to the cows. We named 6 cows: I named a grayish calf Dusty, Maddy named a black calf with a white head Edward because she is addicted to Twilight, Gracie, Maddy's younger sister, named a light brown calf with a white head Reese's Pieces, I named a brown cow with curly fur on her sides Jo-Jo, Maddy named a brown calf that was abandoned by its mother Hope, and I named the cow that abandoned her calf Bandit because I thought she should be behind bars. We also had an egg toss. My partner was Lauren. We were the only ones that used one egg the whole time. It finally broke all over me. Egg was in my hair, on my chin, all over my shirt, and splattered down my pants. While everyone else kept doing the egg toss, I went inside and took a shower.

Boots! Come Out, Come Out, Wherever You Are!

Yesterday, Morgan and I arrived at Nana's house. They own a whole bunch of cows in Montesano (part of the rainy coast), and I didn't have any boots that fit me. Dad told Nana that we would have to go somewhere and buy me some. We went to "Del's" in Aberdeen, "Del's" in Montesano, "Montesano Farm and Home", "Dennis Co." in Aberdeen, "Dennis Co." in Montesano, "Sears", "JCPenneys", and "Famous Footwear". We couldn't find anything anywhere! We went back to Nana's house and looked on the Internet. Finally, I looked at Target.com and found tons of rubber boots. I decided on getting black boots with different colored polka dots. Nana called Granny Park and asked her to go to the mall in Bellingham (that's where she lives) and pick them up. She will bring them on Friday because that's when she is coming.

Pigs, Pigs, And More Pigs

Today, Morgan and I got to choose the pigs that we wanted to bring to the Grant and Adams fairs. I told myself that I would only get black pigs, but sure enough I got a white pig. (But don't forget, I still got 1 black pig.) I already picked out names, too. The white pig is named Junior because, compared to his brothers, he's HUGE. I named the black pig Cheyenne because I wanted to name Piper that. I even named one of Grimmers' horses Cheyenne. I hope that Junior won't bite and be too aggressive because every time I have a white pig, I'm happy when the people load them up to go to the butcher.
