My Life Graph


My favorite event that happened so far in my life is when I got my goats Amy and Domo. They were Pygmy goats that I got the summer of 4th grade. We used to let them out and they would run around the house eating everything! We also would bring them inside with us while we watched t.v. and they would just fall asleep on you. They were really cute, fun, and fat! Amy and Domo only stood about a foot 1/2 tall. If they were to grow up they would of been as wide as they were tall. My dad built a little house for them that was really big for two little goats. Most the time they didn't spend in the goat pen though. We nicknamed Amy Houdini because she kept escaping from the pen so we had to line the whole bottom of the fence with logs, and she still got out! And they weren't little logs. They also ran away one time to the neighbors. I just thought they were in the backyard, but i guess not because just then our neighbor comes up the driveway with Amy and Domo on a rope. We had just been over at the neighbors so i think they followed us. If you had food in your hand' they would follow you around all day. They were white with a back stripe on their backs. Domo was a little bigger than Amy and he had horns. Amy was my goat and Domo was Charleys goat. We named him Domo from that song Domo Ari Gotto Mr. Roboto. Ari Gotto was Domo's middle name and Mr. Roboto was Domo's last name.

cross country and MY SANDWICH, pets

Yesterday I participated in a cross country meet located at the South Whidbey High School. I didn't feel good so i didn't get as good of time as i have in the past. I finished in eleventh place with the time 10 min. and 34 sec. Today at lunch i had a really bad sandwich. It had turkey, pickles, cheese, tomato and cheese in it, it was gross. My mom made it last night and then all the juice from the pickles made my sandwich get all wet and soggy so the bread turned green!
Last summer i inherited a Ball Python named Laura Love that i purchased from the pet store. It took me a really long time to convince my mom to get the snake. I had to research Ball Pythons on the internet and type a long report on them. I also have a lepord gecko, it is my brothers. We own 30 chickens plus a rooster, Check Mate. During the summer a baby chickie hatched in the chicken coup, we named it Nemo, because it would run in and out of the fence like Nemo when he was in the sea enenime. Unfortunetly Nemo drowned in the chicken water bowl. My dad changed his name to Floater after that. It was really sad:( And i have three cats; Pumpkin, Patch and Pickles. Pickles is really fluffy and fuzzy. Pumpkin is orange and never scratches. Patch is Pumpkins sister, she is crazy and she is a lot of different colors. Last i have a dog named Miesha, shes a chocolate lab. She is super fast and when she runs, if you throw the ball for her dust comes up behind her, because shes going so fast! Mieshas a pack dog, whatever you do she just lays there and watches you, mostly because she wants food, but still. Whenever we take her to the lake or to the ocean we have to keep her on a rope, because she trys to eat all the water she spalshes and then she won't stop swimming and almost swam to Port Townsend one time. Oh just kidding thats not last, I also have a few fish. Thats it.

This summer:)

This summer I went to camp Lutherwood with Nora. While we were at camp we got lost on a road trip to Oregon and had to sleep in a church! A week or so after camp Nora and I went to Anna's cabin. We went tubing and wakeboarding every day! Some people that lived on the other side of the lake we were on had a molecule. The molecule was a huge tube that easily fit 4 people.They drove us around on it for an hour. That was my favorite part of the whole weekend. We were tubing when my tube sunk all the way under the water. I thought it was going to come back up so I held on and it just kept sinking. Also this summer I went to my cousins house. We went tubing from their property on Lake Washington. We had been tubing for about only 15 minutes when the boat stopped working. Joey (my cousin) and I swam back to the dock to get something so the boat would work again. We decided to not take the stuff needed for the boat back and instead just ditched them and swam in the pool. After a while we went back but they had already finished the swimming the boat back with a rope. Later that night when we were all in our pajamas and getting ready for bed we were standing around outside by the pool and i had this idea to push Charley into the pool. I did. After that he pushed me in. All of us were soaked, except for Joey who managed not to get pushed in. A few days befor my dad fell off the roof he took Charley and I tubing! It was super fun, except it was raining really hard. We were already wet so it didn't make a difference if we went into the water. About a day or two later my dad woke me up and asked if i wanted him to pick up two kittens. Well i wasn't going to say no. Charley and i both agreed on yes faster than my dad asked us he question. The only problem was we didn't ask my mom if we could get them. When she got home from work she was not happy. We had to give the kitty's away! They spent the night that first day, but after that we gave them to Travis. Two days after we dumped the cats on Travis he brought them over so me and Charley could play with them while he was working on our house. Travis came over a lot in the summer to help dad with the lean two to cover the hot tub and barbeque.We begged my mom if we could keep them and she finally gave in. That night we watched Happy Gilmore with Mom, Dad, Travis, and Charley. The rest of my summer was partly occupied by practices for soccer on Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays.
