100_1916

I went to a pig roast with my cousins, Tyler and Maya.  We ate hotdogs and chocolate.

I got to ride on a tractor with Maya.   We went many places, but it was only imagination. 

I got to stand on the table and watch Uncle  Kork  saw open the dead pig.  Kork  let Maya and me put salt and pepper inside the pig.  We put it in the pig with our hands.  I was not afraid.

100_1942Tyler sat on a log and ate pulled pork with my Daddy and his cousin Carrie.  (She jumps out of airplanes.) 

 

100_1936

 

   I got to see all of Poppie’s brothers and sisters.  I think I like Poppie the best!

 

 

 

100_1948

Maya and I played beauty shop at her house.  Before Poppie and Grandma came for the pig roast, Maya, and Mommy and Aunt Anne, and I went for pedicures. 

 

 

 

 

100_1952

I went to a museum in St. Louis.  Maya and Tyler went too.  The museum had a very big slide.  Maya and I came down the slide all alone.  I wasn’t scared.

 

I saw turtles and a big ole catfish.  Not as big as the catfish in Carlyle Lake.  100_1961 Maya’s friend, Catherine, was at the museum too. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

100_1964

We did a lot of crawling through things.  We climbed on things too.  I walked on balance beams with Poppie.  We rode on a train.  It went round and round three times.  It was fun.

 

 

100_1969

When we came home from the museum, Maya and I rode in her pink jeep.  I like to drive her jeep.  Maya and I take turns driving up and down the street.  Jack sometimes walks with us.  I drove across Uncle Brett’s grass!!

That night Uncle Brett and Maya played guitars and sang songs.

The next day, Maya and Tyler went to school and I went to Champaign with Grandma and Poppie.  We stopped at a pumpkin patch on the way to 100_1988Champaign.  It was cold.  I got to ride in a wagon.  I picked out my own pumpkin.  It was still in the big field.

100_2026

I painted the pumpkin with glow in the dark paint.  It wasn’t very scary.  I killed a spider in Poppie’s house.  I stomped on it with my shoe.  It was a very very big spider.

 

 

 

100_2023sGrandma and Poppie read me stories at bed time.  They read Mama Do You Love Me and Dance Me, Daddy.  I like those stories.  Poppie tells me stories about dinosaurs at the playground and about the mermaids in Carlyle Lake.

 

100_2005

 

 

I got new clothes.  My winter clothes are in storage — somewhere. 

 

 

 

I went to a beauty shop with Grandma Kathy.  I got my hair trimmed. 

Grandma and Poppie brought me to Louisville and Daddy was there.  Grandma drove all the way and Poppie sat by me.  (Poppie is my favorite.)  I went home with Daddy.  He’s my favorite, too.  I slept all the way to my house.      

 

The End!!

I realize compared to Marielle’s glorious food photos, mine are the naked folks in National Geographic.  Just my documentary style.  On to the food -
