My Grandparents Visit

Being silly with our pumpkin slices.

Celebrating my grandma's birthday.

My grandpa and grandma visited us again this month. We had a lot of fun playing games and cooking together. I was excited to show them our chickens and the coop my brother and Dad built. My grandma brought us paints and paper for paining. She also bought us some puzzles. It was fun painting together. My grandpa took my brother and me out to breakfast one day early in the morning.

This is my newest little cousin, Jaylene Adriana. She is three months old and so cute! I haven't met her in person yet, but maybe next year I will be able to see and hold her.

Happy Anniversary Dad & Mom



My parents celebrated their 13th anniversary this month! I am happy that I have a godly father and a godly mother for my parents. My Dad works hard for us and teaches us from the Bible . He calls me, "Belleza". That means beautiful in Spanish. My mom teaches me many things like sewing, cooking, organizing and taking care of our home. She also is my teacher in our homeschool. I love when she teaches us history and geography. I love you Dad and Mom. Thank you God, for my Dad and Mom. May they be blessed with alot of years together and lots and lots of children.
