Caleb's Grad

man i remember when i graduated from grade school. i thought i was so big and mature and had it all together. but now the kids that graduated tonight are just my little brother's friends. it seems SO strange.they keep getting smaller every year!

i love my brother!

this is my very much needed running coach =D (in disguise as my cousin) and my dear brother

life.

so much has happened! actually it wasn't that much. but several things that were fun all in a week. (and that is pretty amazing for me) :)
Friday-
*did school.
*went to Track-n-Field at my siblings school. watched my brother run and jump. that boy is amazing! he doesn't even practice, and he is fast! and can jump high! he got first place in high jump 5'5".
*packed
*left to go camping (with the church)
*hung out camping. Lots of fun! (more details prolly later.)
we were camping the weekend. got home around 2:30 and slept. went to the party sunday night.
monday was a normal school day. tuesday another normal school day. in the evening i went running/walking 1 mile. and then biking 4 miles with my cousin.
wednesday (today) did school. biked over to my sibling's school. hung out with becca. then biked back home. ate supper. got ready for Caleb's grad.

mia and me

mom got a new lense. . . so she wanted to try it out. and me and maria were the ones who got our pictures taken. man.

we were being CRAZY. but hey! it was fun! =D

I don't know what possessed us. . . because it was chilly, and raining a little bit.

Maria was " freezin' "

um. don't try to walk the railroad tracks with barefeet. . . expecially if your trying to save your sister's tender feet. i got off of there with SORE feet!

This is our nice "new" wall around the church graveyard. . .the men of the church just recently took the plaster off. . . and i think it's cool. . . and since we were close by, we took a picture. it seemed kinda weird to take pictures right by a graveyard. . . but i'm still ok.

and here is a gate into the grave yard. . .this picture was taken by my 5 year old sister. . . ain't she good?

WHAT IS WRONG?

wow. my dog had me scared there for quite a while! i was talking to my mom when my sister comes in and says that Kesha is going crazy. so i went outside. here Kesha was for real going crazy! she looked like she was in pain, and something was wrong with her mouth. and she would move her mouth really weird, and we'd hear a cracking noise.. i had NO idea what was wrong with her. she was so crazy that she would walk around on her back legs (something she never does w/o food) with her paws to her mouth. . . i wasn't sure what to do. i was scared. cause i love my dog! i got her kind of settled down and looked in her mouth. . . she was bleeding behind her top, front teeth. i was trying to figure out why her mouth was bleeding. my dad warned me to be careful because she is in pain and might bite. we got her some milk. . . she didn't drink it fast, mostly just put her mouth in the milk to make it feel better. finally dad got some gloves on (so if she would bite it wouldn't hurt). and we were looking at her mouth, all we could see was a little bit of blood on the roof of her mouth behind her teeth. then she rolled over in her back. and it was then when my dad saw a 2 1/2 inch stick wedged between her teeth back pretty far in her mouth. when he got it pulled out, i felt her relax. and she was ready to go play again. i'm SO thankful that she is OK!
