Lions, Tigers, Bears, Oh My!

Okay, maybe I didn't see lions. And the tigers weren't on display. And the bears were sleeping in the corner where you could not see them. But even so, the Zoo was fun! I went with my cousins and my family and I took LOTS of pictures ( be prepared). First of all, I sometimes feel kind of sorry for the animals, after all, they have lots of people staring at them, just staring. For example, the penguins. The area we live in is cold and dry in winter, and hot and dry in summer, whereas they are used to freezing, wet areas. Also, most of the animals look tired or bored. However, I like the Zebras and the Giraffes especially, because they seem the most interested in the people, and they are used to the hot/dry temperatures there. Another thing is, the tigers all seem to be going extinct! There is a list of the different kinds, and how m,any there are in zoos and in the wild. quite of few of the names had "Extinct" next to them. =( Anyway, I still enjoyed the zoo, and I know they do their best to keep the animals happy, so I'm alright with it. =D

Paintings 2 & 3

Here are two of my newest paintings from my class. I have actually done three so far, but i don't have a picture of my first one, of candy. So, here are pictures of my second and third paintings.
Obviously I've been concentrating on food. =)

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Evil Cold Virus!!!

Being sick is no fun at all! For the past few days I have had a stuffy nose, been coughing, had bloody noses, a sore throat, and some aches. I am feeling a little better today, so I am happy about that! Hopefully I don't get anyone else sick, because it has been pretty miserable, but even so, I am very grateful to be reminded of how good it is when I feel completely healthy!

Cake Decorating

On Tuesday I made this cake with some other people in my ward and we each made our own. Unfortunately, I was unable to take a picture of everyone else's, but here's mine! =D I had a lot of fun decorating it and there was a lot of laughs.

Field Trip!

Last Thursday my choir class went to Salt Lake City and we sang for the House of Representatives and the Senate. After wards we had a tour around the capital building and then had lunch with our groups. My group went to "Rumbi's Island Grill" which had the best sweet potato fries and really good rice. Here are some pictures I took:
