Trip to Texas

So, we went to Texas to see Grandma and Grandpa and to go to Sea World. It was sooooo fun. While everyone was dying cause of the heat I was basking in it. I loved the heat, Yeah, I am a little crazy. We went to the Botanical Gardens in Fort Worth. That was oh so cool. Gardens and gardens galore. There was a pond with TONS of turtles in it. Went to the Japanese Gardens and that was really neat. There were ponds with big ole fish in it.

I found a new favorite word being with all the southerners. "Y'all" My mom was laughing cause I picked up a little twang to my voice while I was there. Here are some pics from our trip.

Pictures above are in the Botanical Gardens. I think it is a beautiful place.




We also went to the Alamo. There was a guy their that told the story of the Alamo. Mom and Matt were in awe with me. I was so interested. I listened and really got into seeing all the displays and models. I was a sponge for all the history. I really enjoyed it.

Afterwards we went across the street to Ripley's Haunted Adventure. Thinking it was like a museum of haunted things.... We were sadly mistaken. It was a ride and I cried the entire time. After it was done and we were on the elevator out- I snapped. I was screaming in the elevator about them not letting me out. It was not fun!

We went through the River walk in San Antonio also and had dinner. We ate at this place called Dick's. You really have to have a sense of humor in there. They makes you hats and you have to wear them the entire time you are there or they may make you another one. Mine was so embarrassing.

Sea World was awesome. We got to feed dolphins. See Sharks. Penguins. The Budweiser horses. They are extremely large horse. I had a carticapture drawn of me as a mermaid. We saw huge aquariums with a lot of fish in them. It was so much fun. Then we got to see Shamu. They splashed everyone but we were a little too high up and didn't get wet. We went to the later show and sat right up front so Matt and I could get wet. Grandma got a little wet, Matt and I got kinda wet and we turned and looked at mom and she was dripping wet, It was so funny! I got to ride this log ride. I loved it. We rode another water ride where everyone got really wet. It was a blast. Grandpa Smyth got really wet on that one.

Then we went to the Forth Worth Zoo. One of the top 5 largest zoos in the United States. It was huge and pretty cool. I really wasn't into the zoo as much. We were going to go to Six Flags but after Sea world, we wanted to avoid heat and long lines. So, we went to the zoo instead. Still hot and all day in the sun but there were a lot of animals. We spent a lot of time in the amphibian exhibit. Matt and me took our time looking at everything. One last picture. I made a friend.

Yeah, that is a snake!

My Pets

As many of you already know, We have a zoo.

Literally!

I wanted to show everyone my zoo!

This is Dizzy FON. Ask me what FON means. She spins, and spins and spins. All the time.

This is Jake. I really love Jakers. He is MY dog. He sleeps in my bedroom with me and ends up sharing my bed. Silly Dog.
This charming little queen Meow is Spazz. She fetches. Crazy huh!
This handsome little Devil is Teddy! He is soooooo fun! I wanted a white ferret with Red eyes and my mom said they are freaky looking. He won us over though. So, now I am the proud owner of little Teddy here. He is out little trouble maker!

This would be Dolly, as in the Dolly Ferret. She is our lovey one. She is as soft as a bunny! (Ferrets normally have course hair) She is hiding!

So, there you saw it. Not pictured are Sadie (A Ferret that looks just like Dolly), Thump, a big ole White rabbit in the back yard and Piddens (a stray cat that has adopted us and lives on our front porch)

A day at the Spa.

Kara and I had a girls night. My skin was really tight! Mom was talking about needing some cucumbers too. I was really confused.

MUCH NEEDED UPDATE!

Mom wants to apologize! She has been HORRIBLE at keeping up on my page! So, watch over the next week for lots of catch up posts!

To Kick them off though....
I have so much new things going on. I am still in Dance and loving it. I can do my "Soak up the Sun" dance by heart. Don't need to watch the teacher for cues. I get to perform my Tap dance for the first time tomorrow at the Mall. YEAH!!!

I have also won the war over a singing class. (I have wanted to do singing for about 2 years now and Mom finally caved) So, I am in the Childrens Upbeat Choir. It has been fun so far. I have only been doing it for a few weeks.

Still loving school. DOING VERY WELL. The only thing that I am struggling with is my address. I knew it once upon a time, but it keeps losing digits. I know my moms phone number and Grandma Karens phone numbers. Still working on Daddy's and Matt's though.

Oh yeah, I have 3 loose teeth. The two bottom front teeth and one of my front top teeth. I don't really like to wiggle them much though. One of the bottom ones has been loose for weeks with no progress.

We got 2 new ferrets. Pictures will be posted soon. This time I have my own. His name is Teddy and he is white with RED eyes. I love it. He is so fiesty and playful. We had to get another one cause our one was so lonely that he was not eating since we lost the other one in January. (SO VERY SAD- I MISS BUDDAH SO MUCH) We drove to Utah and adopted these from a ferret rescue shelter and they had to come as a pair. They are fun fun though!

Okay, So, like I said.... Watch for new pictures and posts over the next couple days! I have some very funny Pictures I want mom to post on here for me!

Festival of Trees 2008

I have been itching for some entertainment! Or, should I say, I have been itching to entertain!

It's year 2 of Dance and Wow! Everyone is soooooo impressed with how well I can dance and this year I sure do give it a whirl!!

So sit back and watch my very first performance of "Soak up the Sun".

I hope you enjoy!

Let's all get into the holiday mood with a little "Frosty the Snowman".

Letter from the editor:

Kaebree is putting so much more time and energy into this years dance class. I told her that she was doing soooo good and she said that she likes it better this year cause her song is like a barbie song. A barbie song huh?! She then told me that it is a funner song then her last year songs. So, here is to "Barbie" songs.

Christmas time is coming!

Can you see me?

The thing about Fall is... That I love to play in the big pile of leaves our tree leaves on the ground! I have a tree that we tied a rope too and Addie and I swing from the tree and land in the leaves. It is SOOOOOO much fun!

Soccer season over.

Soccer is over, we played hard, even though I got hurt game after game after game, I really had fun! I love doing things with my best friend Nic and our next session of swimming lessons is right around the corner!

I really likes being the goalie. Did you know that only the goalie can touch the ball? Gives my legs a break!

Going on a ride!

For my birthday I got a new 4 wheeler. Within 5 Hours I was ready to go off jumps. (Small jumps) I just couldn't wait to take her for an actual ride somewhere other then our campsite. ( but the campsite was really big and it was actually pretty fun.) So, my mommy thought this video was really cute cause... well, you'll see. We like to call it...

When the pupil surpasses the teacher!

He was just going too slow!

My mom wanted to show you my wild side! Here's me being CRAZY!!

Now quick note on the video. As you saw, I watched Matt go off the jump! I am a little bit of a crazy one! You can't hear me say it but can see my hand actions, I want to go on that jump with him!! So, the first time he didn't hit it right and didn't take the jump for my safety. The second time was really fun. The "pull the tire up off the ground" (wheelie) at the end of the video was my idea also.

**Disclaimer**Please don't worry though. We make sure that we practice safety and Matt would never do an extreme trick with me on the bike with him or anything else that could cause me harm!

Update on Soccer

I really love soccer. I played my first game last week and my team made a goal. I had a blast. My adoring fans game to cheer me on! (Mom & Matt, Daddy, and Grandma & Grandpa Nebeker! Mom is going to record this weeks game and post a bit on my blog for all to see!
I also get to play soccer with my best friend Nic. It is great!

Dance, Dance, Dance the night away.

Kaebree had a recital at one of the local retirement homes. She was really excited cause they got to perfom both dances that they learned and this is the first tme that she gets to perform her tap dance. Her only complaint is that she is on the carpet and it doesn't make the tap noises. She is in front of a window/door and it's just that time of the day, so, you'll have to forgive me there.

Kaebree wanted to post this picture.

It was a dark and not so scary night... when all the sudden, Kaebree sneezed......

Catch Up

Okay, So my mom is doing this blog spot for all my family. It has taken some time for her to get to it. So, there are going to be some things a little out of season/timeline here for a bit. We will get it done and mom will stay on top of it! She promises!!
