Madisen

Here's our sweet Madisen, on twin day at school. She had to dress like a friend and so they both bought dinosaur shirts and put their hair in a ponytail with a green ribbon. Here she is before school with her cat, Snugglebug.

Carmel

This is a picture of me and my cat, Carmel. She is sometimes grumpy and growls when you pick her up, But she likes to cuddle with me and circle around me. The reason why I called her Carmel is because her fur is like Carmel coloring. 

 

Furry, Cuddly Cats

 

Fishing Line

Since Ryan and I received our fish, Happy, from the Moores, after their fish, Allstate died, we thought it only fitting to pass on this tradition and give someone else a fish and all the stuff that they had given us... the net, rocks, fish food and fish tank-jar-thingy... (Unless the Moores' want it back!) So I know those that are not living in Pocatello are deeply sadden by this news as we are not going to send a fish in the mail, but you will get over it I am sure. ;) But those friends that are living here in Pocatello, if any of you would like a fish for your child to take care of, leave a comment letting us know. If by some miracle we have more than one friend/comment we will toss for a winner! So "cast" us a line for you could be the next in the "Fishing Line"! haha...ha?

Happy ain't so happy anymore...

At around 8:45 in the morning I went over to feed Happy. Right when I saw him, I was surprised to see he wasn't alive. "He checked out" or "Bought the farm" as Ryan would say. Ryan said he fed him that morning before he went to school and he was still kickin' around... so sometime between 7:25 and 8:45 am, Happy took his last breath...(or gulped his last gulp??) Thanks to Aaron and Amy for letting us have a chance to raise Happy. Happy was a bright fish and had a memory capacity of 8 seconds at a time. He lived a long-happy four months and 3 days with us...

Madi was sad but we told her Happy is now with Heavenly Father. She said, "Are we going to get another fish?" I told her no, probably not. She then said, " Are we getting a dog or a sheep then?" haha...No, sorry Madi.

Farewell Happy!! Then Madi flushed him down. As you can see Avery, too, was surprised by his sudden passing...
