The House Destroyed

Sorry it took my so long to post this stuff.  

 

We got our entire up stairs painted. 

 

All the way down stairs.                                   

Getting ready to paint.     

 

All doors were closed off.

Unusable bathrooms.                                                                              

These

were all the colors we had to chose from.                                                        

Everything was moved is the school room. 

Trip to the zoo

        

                                            Our grandma took us to the zoo for a valentines present.  And the zoo added a dinosaur exhibit.   All the statutes of the dinosaurs could move.                                                                                                                                                                                                                        In the bird area all the birds were yelling at us, I even had a conversation with one.                                              This peacock was walking right by me. They must be aloud to walk around the zoo.                                                                                                                                This is the dinosaur exhibit.   He even smiled for me. This picture was difficult for me to get because it was moving.                                                                                                                                            The eggs were so cute they moved there heads like a real baby chick would.   There was a dying, and other dinosaurs on top of it,                                                                                                                       and it was very realistic.                                                                                              The ducks were fun, Daniel for the first time fed the ducks.  If you look closely you can see (above) the Geese’s  beak sticking out for the food.

                                                                                     Just look a at this poor bird.  It is a plucker!  He did that to himself.    The baby monkey was teasing us.  He’s got a carrot.   The last time we were here he was more than half the size he is now.                                                                                                      That’s his mom.  Look at those arms.  She was feeding the baby when we got there.  The entire time were there the dad just sat in a corner.  But we got to see two of them  fight                        

 

   Dominic was out by the time we were at the duck.  The ducks are on the way out.                                                                                                                      

 

          

Meatballs

Mom and I made meatballs the other night, and to make sure they cooked evenly, we had to weigh each and every one, they must weigh 1.5 oz.  And sometimes one of us would say something like, “this one will be on the button, or too light,” or visa versa.  But once I said, “Mom, how much do you think this will weigh?” Then mom said, ” 2.3 oz” And what does it weigh? 2.3oz!!!!!!!!!!!  I could just not get over it!  The meat balls were very good.  We ate them right after they were done, so I don’t have any pictures.

I also made coleslaw that night but I made one major booboo.  I added balsamic vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar!  I thought it would be terrible, but no, it tasted great.  I hope we use it again.
