New Truck!

Ty was able to bring the new truck home without finishing the payments!


My brother is over for the weekend before he gets register for running start on Monday! I ♥ him!
He is wearing Ty's aviators so it looks like he is wearing regular glasses, he was blessed with good eyes but bad teeth.
He thinks holding the light makes him "bad a"


This is his "union seat" sitting in the swing doing nothing :)

Geronimo is a big boy also out of Jazz that was a terrible delivery

Taekwondo

Ty's sister are black belts. They have been attending the Bonney Lake College of Martial Arts for a few years. They are on the Demonstration Team and preform at Fort Lewis for the Special Olympics and at Bonney Lake Days every year.

Hannah Leads the Youth Forum. She does a scarf defense routine (she is attacked with a knife), Later on in the show she is the attacker when her partner does his defense routine.


Sofie broke wood this time. She is part of the youth forum. She is also one of the youngest black belts there.

I hope I got all the pictures right its hard to tell who is who when they are moving so fast.

Kittens

A while back(I think it was January) Ty found this kitten in his grandparent's carport kinda thing. He was so thin and scared we did not think he would have lasted another day or two out there. So we took him home for a few days, he really attached himself to Ty. We already had a kitten and my grandma was not for having another cat in the house. Ty's mom knew a family that had lost their kitty a few months earlier, they decided to take him, they named him Benson and he is a fat lazy indoor cat now. I wish I had an updated picture of him.

Ty's Grandma has been feeding a bunch of kittens their mom and uncle this summer. They have been living in the carport (Benson is the mom's brother I think). While Ty's Grandparents were in Long Beach Ty and I caught these little guys (on the left a girl originally Mufasa now Cruella and a boy Raven on the Right they are so sweet. They live in Ty's grandma fabric cabinets.

Last week they traped the mom uncle and 3 remaining kittens and sent all 7 in to be spayed or neutered. They came back last night, I volunteered to take 2 kittens home to try to tame. So they can go to a good home. ( on the left a boy with a spot in the right side of his nose, on the right a girl with a spot on the left side of her nose.) They are the mirror image of each other.

The boy is extremely scared, last night he bite me and hit me had he is strong luckily I was wearing gloves, But the girl (Mis Mittens I call her) is warming up to me. While moving them into another cage this morning the boy escaped, he is hiding under furniture some where. I hope he will come out when he gets hungry. So while he is being a scaredy cat I am cuddling with Mis Mittens!

We can not forget about Buddy, he is being very friendly to the kittens. He does not understand why they are upset, and do not like to be held. I think he feels a little neglected and wants some attention because he crawled inside this empty case of water and rolled around for a while.

My Baby Brother

Is not so much a baby anymore :'(

Ricky

He is getting to the point where he doesn't need his big sister anymore. He has not stayed the night since Memorial weekend. He got his license a few weeks ago. He will be 17 in 1 month. He is suppose to do running start at Bates this fall for diesol mechanics. He was up at the lake a few weeks ago and stopped by on his way back to Eatonville because his friend's truck was over heating, so maybe he does still need me :) ♥

Opinions and The Duggar Family

I am extremely content with the idea that people can have different opinions than I do. I am not content with people that think that their opinion is the only way.

I have been keeping up with the articles "People" has been publishing about the Duggar family. Wow is all I can say. Every comment is so negative. Let them believe what they want to believe. Remember we see only see 25-50 minutes of their life a week for a season. It is none of your business what choices they make. They rely on them selves, they are not on welfare wasting your tax money. They are not involved in the public school system. I love the values the children are being taught. Praise your children 10 times more than you correct them! That sounds like a wonderful way to teach your children to make good choices. “Buy used and saved the difference!” I think they have a great family. Should they have anymore children probably not but that is for them to decide no one else.

Sewing projects

I am blogging about my sewing projects now!
Here is the link

I ran into this yesterday it is kind of funny

A man was being tailgated by a woman on Foothill Boulevard. Suddenly, the light turned yellow just in front of him. He did the right thing by stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through ...the intersection. The tailgating woman slammed on the brakes and leaned on the horn. She opened her window, stuck her hand out and made a gesture, all the while screaming in frustration as she'd missed her chance to get through the intersection with him. As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer.

The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up. He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a cell. After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects. He said, "I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn, flipping the guy off in front of you, and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the 'Choose The Right' license plate holder, the ''Families are Forever' bumper sticker, the 'Follow Me to Sunday School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Angel Moroni emblem on the trunk.
Naturally, I assumed you had stolen the car!!"
