Flowers, Pepper, and Crazy Good Fruit!

This blog is going to be about BEAUTIFUL flowers, sleepy little Pepper, and a peach tasting fruit!

I don't know how this happened, but one day, I looked up and there was a ring around the sun!
For this picture of the tree, I was just messin' around with the camera at the beach, and I realized that I actually like this picture!

These next two flowers are hibiscuses, one of my favorites…! 


The next six pictures are different varieties of orchids…
( The tie-dyed looking orchid is my favorite!) 






This looks a little bit like a foxglove to me...

I have no idea what kind of flowers these next two pictures are...


These next two pictures are a flower- bigger than my head- called a torch flower!

(I assume it's called a torch flower because it's petals resemble flames?)

This is a rare site to see in Haiti…
Though I'm not saying to stop smoothing out all the gigantic pot holes and bumps in the road...

My two little hermit crabs are still thriving...

I don't think I told you guys this…
 Stacey found me another hermit crab when we went to the Dominican Republic!

Here is Pepper, just woken up from his morning nap...

Oh, never mind, he needs more beauty rest...


In the afternoon, Boone joined him for what? 
Oh right, another nap.

Here's Pepper again, a natural goat herder…
(Well, he was pacing the circumference of the goat pen,
 but by the time I got my camera, he decided he need a rest.)

Speaking of goats, since this week was the last week of school for the seminary, 
they killed three of the goats for a little feast. 
(You get a strange feeling in your stomach when you eat a friend!)
This fruit is called apriko.
 It tastes like a peach, accept there is a hard brown peel on the outside that you have to chop off. 
I cut it up and gave my dad the pit, and he said he'll try to plant it!


Oh, I almost forgot!
I FINALLY turned 12 on May first!
Just because the cupcakes are pink and purple doesn't mean I'll ever become a girly-girl ;)

My friends and I at my sleep-over birthday party…



Well I hope you enjoyed my post!

Pictures taken by me!

This blog is gonna be about pictures that I took and wanted to share with you...
In my last blog I showed you some pictures I took of the sky. I really enjoy taking pictures of brilliant sunsets and sunrises, so I took a few more for you guys... 






























 I thought that it was kinda strange seeing a pink cloud...














I had never seen this type of flower in Haiti till now...














These next two pictures turned out WAY better than I had hoped...















 Pepper looks like a crazy dog in these pictures...















Pepper would NOT sit still to let me take a picture, so I tried to hold him down...














He looks especially crazy in this picture...














 I LOVE this picture!!!

I still can't figure out where this picture was taken...














 This is the Ayars' house...














 I love pictures with sunlight and plants if you can't tell...













 




















These pictures are of the same storm...














They were taken right before the storm started...






















Hibiscus flowers are just plain brilliant in my opinion...














 And last but not least, a starfish that my dad found on the beach...














Thank you sooooooooo much for reading my blog!
