(Today is my birthday. I'm 9 years old now.) Today when I woke up Mom started to hum Happy Birthday. That was the start of the day. Then we got dressed and did our morning stuff then we biked to Aunt Anne Marie's house and had pancakes and BACON. Yum, Yum! After that, we played a bit, then around lunch time, Sean and I had spelling tests. After that I got 2 big bags of carrots and we went to the horse place where they have pens and pens of wild, rescued, horses. We fed the horses the carrots. The first pen of horses were not interested. The second pen had donkey like things, they were not interested ether. The next couple of pens of horses DEVOURED the carrots (I have a video on another post). On the way back to the car we saw 2 horses. 1 horse was pulling the other horses tag off. He had gotten it off 1 ear when the other horse pulled her head away. We pet some horses muzzles. Then we got in the car and went to a Mexican restaurant called Corona Castle. Mom got the bar, Dad did too, Sean got a HUGE burrito, I got 2 small tacos, Grace got a BIG hamburger with LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS of fries, we all shared with Luke. We all got fruit. After lunch Sean and Grace walked to Aunt Anne Marie's house. When they got back they had a lizard in Sean's shoe!
They looked up what it was and what it eats. It was a southern horned lizard,it eats 90% ants and10% fruit. Grace found it some ants and a strawberry. They named it Dragon. Then we did more school. Then we played until it was time for dinner. For dinner we had hot dogs, brots, and fruit.
This is my plate of fruit.(I ate it all) for dissert we had ice cream Sundays, (we could pick the toppings, chocolate sauce, chocolate sprinkles, and whipped cream.(It comes out fast!)
This is me with my birthday ice cream with 9 candles on it. After the party we biked home in the dark. When we got home we went to bed and I started me Birthday Blog.[I will answer the challenge now. Sedimentation means the laying down of sand. Lithification means turning to stone.
The End
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you!
ReplyDeleteXoxoxo love you
Well, it certainly sounds like you had a great birthday, Katie! I wish I had some of that ice cream! But I think we are going to have lots of good desserts for Nicholas' baptism too. I recommend you ask Uncle Mark for one of his special cupcakes! WOW!!!
ReplyDeleteSee you tomorrow! Sorry your dad is going to miss the parties - but somebody has to work, right?
Love Grandpa
Grandma here . . .
ReplyDeleteWe saw lots of lizards in Ridgecrest, but I don't think we ever saw one that looked like your horned lizard! The ones we saw always had long tails and moved very fast. The one in Sean's shoe looks sleepy and happy to stay there.
I'm glad you had such a special birthday! I'm surprised there were any horses/burros that wouldn't eat your carrots. And I'm not surprised a horse was taking the tag off another horse--I always think those tags must be annoying for the horse.
We will see you later today--Friday. It's cloudy/foggy now, but I'm sure you will bring the sunshine!
Love you, GT
Man-O-Man that sounds like a perfect Katherine birthday.......horses, ice cream, lizards, bike riding.....spelling.....well maybe or maybe not. Love you lots, Nana MO'S and Grandpa Don
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Katie! It's so fun to read your blog entries (and Grace's and Sean's too!) as you travel. It's almost like we're there with you! What an amazing adventure your family is having. :)
