Flowers

My job today was to weed the flowerbeds in the front yard. We have a lot.
I like to see the butterflies, lady bugs, and baby lizards while I weed. I am glad I am done.

BEAR

Rosebud

My sister and I have hamsters. Her hamster, Lady Jo, died a few weeks ago.
My mommasweetheart and I went one day and picked out a new hamster for my sister.
I named her ROSEBUD. Aimée liked that name.

Isn't she cute?

My momma holding Rosebud.

We found that Rosebud likes to put her bedding and food in her wheel.

Then she sleeps there.

At night she runs in her wheel and makes a huge mess.

Rosebud is really cute, but she is messy.

We have put my hamster, Teddy Bear, in Rosebud's cage,

and Rosebud in Teddy Bear's cage.

She cannot make such a big mess now.

Silver Springs

We went to SILVER SPRINGS.

I wasn't told where we were going.
I really wanted to know.

Here we are about to go in the Park.

I liked this cow.

His name is OREO.

Here we are leaving the Park.

We spent all day there, and I had a lot of fun.

BEAR

Silver Springs

We rode on glass bottom boats
This is a turtle eating an ice cream cone.
We fed the fish, and then were told to toss
the cone in the water that the turtles would eat it.
And they did.
This is a statue under the water.
It is from a movie,
but I don't remember which one.

This is me and my dad.

He is looking into the glass bottom boat

at the springs underneath us.

That is one of the boats.

We are on a ride call the LIGHTHOUSE.

BEAR

Silver Springs

I loved this part of the park.
Could this be one of my cousins?

His name is Jake.

He had a fruit salad for dinner.

Me and Jake.
