Bull's Eye

I am so proud of Christina.  She finished a 100 piece puzzle all by herself.


Way to go, Christina!
Samanatha snuggles Mommy.
Christina invited Grandpa to a picnic on the swing set.
He was game.
Me with a water gun.  Don't mess with  the girl in a dress!
Gotcha!
Why is Grandpa always running away from me?
Bull's eye!

After I soaked everyone, Mommy suggested a quieter game.  Uno!

Christina likes to win.  She makes up her own rules and plays Different Uno.  Kinda like Different Spanish.
But, I still won this round!
And, did I tell you that we are petting sitting Honey the Fish and Minnie the Cat?  They can't play together or we won't get paid.  We have to return pets alive and healthy.

Roar Of The Samantha

Zoo time!

I love to go to the zoo and ride all the animals.  Christina liked the draft horse a lot.
I did too.  The only thing is the zoo was so super crowded that we had to ride two on the horse.
I always have to ride in the back because I'm bigger.
Super fun!
Next up?  Camels.
See what I mean? Always in the back.
The ride operators know us well. We think the animals do too.
Cheers.
Pony rides are awesome. 
I can do this everyday and our family annual pass agrees!
Christina got to ride a pony twice in two weeks. She is so lucky!
Roar!
Roar!
Daddy, we need to go back to the zoo, not leave it.
Daddy and me!
Family picture and, yes Daddy has bunny ears.
We love our visits!
On the way home we wanted frozen yogurt and we are too cute to deny.
Yummy!
Someone wasn't too excited about sharing.
We had so much fun and then Grandma and Grandpa stayed with us at night while Mommy and Daddy went out to dinner. We had way more fun than they did!

Chickens To The Sea

We kicked off the morning with a trip to Terhune.  They has awesome bikes.

Samantha is hiding under that hat.
I'm going to get you.
Gotcha!
Samantha was so happy to feed the goats.  When there are too many people at the farm, then the goats don't eat from our hands.  Rude goats!
But today they were super hungry and polite!
Cheese.

After a great time at the farm, we decided to head to the beach. We can do that because we aren't going to school today and Mommy and Daddy are home all day. I sure hope there is junk food at the beach.

Hey, we found fish at the beach, but not in the ocean. Point Pleasant has an aquarium and we had tickets to go inside.
I found a seal but he didn't want to be my friend.
Burt Girls!
Waddle, waddle. High one! Get it.  Penguins don't have fingers, silly.  They can't high five. Even Mommy knows that.
My sister is a sea lion? When did this happen?
Ack, I've turned into a sea lion too!
Please touch tanks rock.  I'm not even scared.  Well, maybe a little, but don't tell anyone.
Samantha wasn't scared.  I think it's because she is six.
Samantha sees you!
Grandma Joanie thinks we are so super de duper silly.
And she is impressed I can ride the swings all by myself.
Round and round I go!
Captain Christina.

I was such a good captain that I picked up even more passengers.
All of this happened while Samantha and Daddy went on the scariest ride ever.
Don't worry, they survived.  And then we all went to the water for picture time.

Mommy asked a nice person to take a picture and they must be a professional because we are all glowing in this picture.
That didn't last long at all because we ended up on the Crazy Bus!
Vroom, vroom.
Mommy snuggled Samantha on a ride.
And might have tickled her too!
It was a great day!

PS- Today Samantha found out she is in Miss Shafranski's class.  Mommy posted the silliest thing ever on Facebook asking who was headed to Broadway (Pippin) and who was headed to the creek (Dawson) and who was hanging with Samantha.  The mommies thought it was really funny and we giggled as we learned who was in each class.
