First Day of First Grade!

This is my school.
My teacher is Mrs. Gilliam. I LOVE her! She does cartwheels when we are good! And she gives us candy when we're good, like if we walk good in the line.

My mom took this picture on the first day of school. I'm cracked up because one of the photos ended up showing Toulouse's bum! Toulouse is my boy cat; he's the cat in this picture.

The Pegasus Post

This is my horse, Pegasus. He is my favorite stuffed horse and I really love him. That's why I want to you to see him. This picture is him and me sitting in our stairway.


Pegasus is a good horse. If you come to my house, I can show you the tricks he does.

My Auntie Lynne gave him to me.

My father tells me Pegasus stories; Peggy comes from Fairy Tale Land.

Mama Post: August 1

Happy Birthday, Carlyn!

Book Review

Horseland: Back in the Saddle Again

Horseland is a TV show that comes on at 8:30 on Saturday mornings. I really like it and you should watch it; it's on CBS Kewlopolis. http://http://www.kewlopolis.com/shows/horseland

On this show there are five girls and two boys.

There are books about Horseland. Today I will review Horseland: Back in the Saddle Again, http://www.amazon.com/Horseland-Back-Saddle-Again/dp/0061341681 but you should watch the TV show first, and if you don't like it, just turn the TV off.

In this book, once there was a girl named Molly who sat in the saddle with her heels down and looked straight ahead. She tried to jump the small fence but she fell out of the saddle. Sarah, another Horseland girl, said to Molly, "I once had a super-bad fear... You have to face your fears." Then they went for a walk. Sarah reminded her that riding was easy, but Scarlet, her horse, had colick, a horse illness. Sarah cried on her horse while she laid down on the ground. She said, "Molly, please go get help." Molly and her horse, Calypso, went for help.

The vet came to Sarah and Scarlet in the pasture. The six kids sat on the fence; Chloe sat backwards and then she tipped over into the horse trough. Alma, another Horseland girl, said, "Hey, Chloe, was that one of your fears?" Then Chloe peeked up from the trough. The kids giggled.

And Scarlet was okay.

I like the story because it shows that Sarah is kind, gentle and cares about horses. I think you should read it. Parents can read it to their children who are old enough, of course. It would be a good book for seven to seventeen-year-olds.

Carlyn & the Cousins

I love my cousins.

I love Meagan. I love Kayla. They are Bonnie and Gordon's children. They are teenagers right now and they have lots of fun. I also love Ryan and Emily and Sarah. I was in Ryan and Emily's wedding. I was a flowergirl.
And I love Allison and Brendon. I visited them at Steamboat Island. I remember I rode in a kayak.
I have a cousin, John, and I have a cousin, Dax who has kids: Natalie, Nicholas and Chelsea.
And I have Colorado and California cousins. I love Nisha, Gavin, Ian and Rachel.

Carlyn & the Steers

These are my uncle's steers. A steer is a boy cow who cannot have babies. In this picture, I am at my grandma's farm. We feed pellets to the steers.

Welcome!
