My New Look

2008-08-10T16:50:00.009-05:00

I have been bugging my mom to help me update my blog all summer, so today we finally did it for our Sunday afternoon quiet time. I have lots more pictures to add (and so does my mom) but we don't know where dad put the camera and we don't want to disturb his nap! I really love dolphins, can you tell? I am really glad I found a dolphin template for this blog. Do you like my songs?This is me in my mom's room yesterday. I took this picture myself!
This is me with my favorite animals in my new room. There's my Purple Easter bunny, Valentine Bear (from Aunt Laura), Butterscotch my alarm-clock puppy, Pinky the dinosaur (from Thanksgiving Point), my favorite whale, Fred (from my great-grandparents) and the baby I am holding is named Rose because she smells like roses.

This is my computer screen with a picture of dolphins I found.
This shows a bottle-nose dolphin--they're my favorite!

This is Heidi with her elephant tree she made yesterday when we got home from swimming.

Heidi changed her elephant tree with me, so I took a picture while we were playing together. This is Heidi in her room with her animals, and she took one of me with my animals in my room (up top).
***

Here are some things I have done this summer:
Me, Heidi, Aunt Abby, & Uncle Marshall having a fashion show in the basement last June.
Me & Heidi climbing the tree at the ranch in June
Me holding Sister Dennison's puppy
Me with my friend Boston. She just moved to South Dakota (boo hoo).

Playing dress-ups with Gracie.
Aren't we glamorous???

I have had a lot of fun this summer, but I am excited for first grade!!!!

A Fun Weekend in Yellowstone Park

2007-09-15T00:12:00.000-05:00

We spent the weekend at Yellowstone Park (9/8-9/9) and on Sunday, my dad let me take some pictures at Old Faithful.The Benches on the deck of the Inn : I took a picture of all this writing on the bench, and an old lady smiled at me because she thought I was taking a picture of her.

[Addie's own commentary is coming soon--as for me, mom, I think it's hilarious that the lady in the background is smiling for Addie's camera!]
This is Old Faithful exploding
This is my dad; He's being funny

More geyser steam: This is a lot of smoke coming towards me. It's very stinky.
This is a picture of my baby brother and my mommy. I took this picture all by myself.
This is my sister, Heidi & her toy bison
Bubby James with Zuzana and dad in the background

I snuck up on Zuzana and took a picture of her and Peter. My name is Addie.

Family Walk

2007-05-19T12:58:00.000-05:00

We walked over to Washington Scool to play on the playground and we saw these ducks in the canal.This is all the fluff from the trees all scrunched up on the water.
I gave my brother a flower and he tried to eat it. It's called a lilac.

Skip to my Lou

2007-05-16T15:03:00.001-05:00

I have some new and old pictures to post, but I have a friend over today, so I will just post this video my dad made of me on our Sunday walk almost two weeks ago. Love, Addie.

Sunday at the Ranch

2007-03-26T21:10:00.000-05:00

This is a picture of the mountains by the ranch.
This is a picture of me and the trees. Addie.
This is the branches growing on the pine tree.
And this is the cool bark on the tree where Grandpa is gonna build our treehouse and I bet we're gonna have very very fun. And, um, I bet it's gonna be so great there with my cousins and we took this picture at the ranch.

2007-03-26T21:03:00.000-05:00

This is Heidi and I bet she's having fun on that swing. On the top of the swing it's holding on to a branch of that tree with the cool bark on it. Me and my mom are making these words.
I thought this truck was dirty and I better not touch it cuz I don't want to take a bath when I get home and my name is Addie. I put my name on there because I wanted you to know that I don't like taking baths. Not anymore.
This is daddy standing by the chicken shed. The square cutting looks like a wooden window. Addie.
This is the back of our car and do you know what it says? You have to read it and say it. It's my mom's stuff. Addie.

I like this snow cave and I think bears go through it to get in the river to get in the water and have a bath, especially baby bears. It's made of ice that used to go up to the road. Addie.
This is Daddy and Bubby. The baby's name is really James Ole and my dad's name is Rich. And I really love him. Addie.
I like this pump thing and I like the wood on the chicken shed. I think we hold the handle and make it put water out.
I like my mom because she is wearing the same coat as my sister and my sister's name is Heidi.
This is Bubby looking at the trees and I love him so much because he is so cute and he likes me and he always laughs at me and I really like that and that's all I need to say.

[I (Jamie) typed Addie's captions exactly as she said them and I was giggling to myself! :)

More to come....]

Our Spring Walk

2007-03-18T20:25:00.000-05:00

Today we went for a walk on the hill just west of our house. Mommy told me to take pictures of beautiful things and these are the things I found. (Mommy took this one) This is me and my brother James Ole and my sister Heidi Lynn. That's our town and Paradise Valley behind us.
Poor Heidi skinned her knee on our walk.
I like this flower that has a hat. It is a bulb growing in our garden. I think it's a tulip. The small leaves are a plant called "Snow-on-the Mountain."
I think these seeds are fluffy and pretty.
I like this rock because it has pretty stuff on it.

I have lots more pictures I have taken over the past year, but I'll have to post them later--I have to go watch a movie before bed time!
Love, Addie
