Aphrodite Escapes

Today I wanted to hold Aphrodite. I took a few pictures. While I was looking at the pictures, Aphrodite jumped out of my arms and started to go toward the house. I got the net and missed the first time by about a foot. But I caught her the second time. Of course she now does not like the net and neither does Pheobe.

Peek-a-boo
You can see that the net has a few holes. But they're not big enough so that they can get through them. When I picked her up Ellie was mowing the lawn in that part. Aphrodite jumped out of my arms again. Aphrodite was quite frightened when the lawn mower came close to her. I think that will be the only time
Zzzzzzzzzz......

that she will get that close. When I went on the porch she was pretending that she was asleep so that I would put her down. I got a picture before she got up. After all of that I was really tired so I put Aphrodite in her cage. Pheobe looked at me like she didn't get all of the attention that day. So I pet her and of course she would be the next one who I would be playing with. So I went inside and relaxed.  What a wonderful day.

S'mores


Mmmmmm this'll be good!
Today we went to church. When we got home we ate lunch and then it got close to dinner. We asked our mom and dad if we could have some s'mores. They said, "Yes." So I got the big wood. Evelyn and Ellie got the sticks. Lucy helped me with the big wood. After Lucy,Evelyn, and Ellie were done they went inside. I stayed outisde to help my dad get the fire started. It was prety hard because it had rained in the morning and last night. I had to help with getting the little sticks that were crisp and dry.


"It's mine!" "No it's mine!" 



When I was done I went inside to have my tacos. When we were done we couldn't wait. Lucy kept on asking if she could bring all of the stuff out. My mom said, "Yes." She also said not to open them. So once my mom and dad got outside we started to roast the marshmallows. Lucy asked when Ellie would be home (Ellie was at youth group). My mom said in fifteen minutes. She also said that my dad was going to pick her up. We had a lot of fun. When Ellie came home my mom said that we manged to save some marshmallows for her. Lucy kept on catching her marshmallows on fire. She always told me to blow them off. One time she nearly hit me in the forhead with a burning marshmallow. We had a ton of fun. I can't wait until the next time.

Smile!
