A New Family Member
In September, we adopted an energentic, little puppy. She is a black and white Alasken Malmute who has now been apart of the family for eleven years. When we had gone to adopt her, there were so many other puppies, I would have adopted them all! -
Kittens!!
After adopting our cat, a year later she gave birth to eight healthy kittens. She had two orange and many striped. As they got older, it was time to give them to other families because there were too many to keep. Kelly was one of the families who adopted, she still has her to this day! -
First Day of Kindergarten
September 4, 2006 was my first day of Kindergarten. I was small and shy and there were many people there. I felt better as the day went on because there were many other kids who felt the same way. -

Goodbye Zora
In third grade my bestest friend left the school and moved to California. We were super close and when she left, school wasn't the same because I didn't have any friends. One thing we used to do together was share pretzel sticks with butter! -
