A bunch of random stuff...!

One day I decided to go outside and play with Pepper. . .

He was in a great mood for a photo shoot. . . 

This is his "It wasn't me..." face. . . 

The great noble Pepper!



And this is where the posing ended. 

The perfect image of Pepper!

"Don't make me, please don't make me!"

Perfect timing!

 The "ornery puppy" look. . .

And this is the "slobbering dog" look. . .



Some new and exciting news is. . .
Two new baby goats were borne!!!

This is peanut butter (Peanut Butter nightmare is Lily's name for it). . .


And here's midnight (Morning Sunrise is Lily's name for it also!). . . 

The momma goat is our prettiest goat, though her name is "Meanie".
She really is the meanest goat!

I don't really know whats happening here. . .

Brother and sister

Peek-a-boo!

"What is that magical little box you are pointing at me?!" 

I thought I should give you a little update on my dad's garden!
Here are the starter pots. . .

Soon-to-be Bell Peppers. . .

Carrots. . . 


Tomatoes and Marigolds!



Tropical Hibiscus. . . (wow that's a bright picture!) 

Papaya blossoms. . . that's a cool shaped flower right?

Last year dad planted a little baby banana tree, and when we arrived back in Haiti this summer. . . 
It had tiny little bananas on it! So we watched them grow for a couple weeks. . .

And now they are getting huge!

Another cool thing is we have another pineapple starting to grow!

I found a hole in the wall, and for some reason I took a picture! 
Which actually turned out to be a cool photo!


I climbed onto the wall just to see what was on the other side. . .  
And wow! What a view!

Back to the garden. . .
Last year's Yellow Squash and Zucchini crop was amazing!
So, of course Dad planted some!

Though they still are pretty young. . .


And some more pictures of the goats!!!



"Maybe she won't see me if I hide behind my brother. . ."

In closing,
I could think of no better picture to share with you guys than one taken from the nature of Haiti. . .

Thanks for reading my blog!!!

Stay tuned!

I would love to hear what you think of my blog,

Crafts, decorating, garden, goats and Pepper!


Lately I've been getting into the art of crafting . . .
So. . .
I made some crafts!

Mom and I painted a black bird resting on a branch, 

then cut out and glued little leaves on the branch!
(Unfortunately this is the only picture I'm in since I took all the rest of them!)

Final result. . .!

Then Stacey and I made little tissue paper flower bouquets!

Next Mom and I made little canvas paintings. . .

This one is my Mom's. . .
She cut out flower petals from scrapbook paper. . .

Final Result. . . (awesome!)

This one's mine. . .


I wrote Psalm 139:18 on it. . .

Final result!

Then of course, Mom and I decorated for fall!
Fall is my FAVORITE season EVER.

We barely brought any fall decorations with us, so we made our own!

We started out by making a wreath out of scrapbook paper. . .

Final result. . .

Then we made candle decorations. . .

by just cutting out leaf shapes then tying yarn around them. . .


After that we made a pennant that says "FALL" on it. . .

Final result. . .

And then there's the rest of the decorations we brought with us!


The garden is starting to flourish!


The papayas on the tree are getting big!

A baby pineapple is stating to form. . .

And one is almost ripe for the picking!

This goat had two kids this morning. . .

Here they are!

Itsy and Bitsy!

And Sugar says hi!

Itsy's bath time!

Bitsy's turn!


It was all-around beautiful today!



And then there's Pepper... cute as ever!
