Earth Day

On Sunday it ws Earth Day so we went to the park and met up with the other home. There were a bunch of animals and we planted trees. It was insanely cold. Well, here are some pictures.













The guy asked for a volunteer, a bunch of people raised their hands, but he picked me:D


yep, the lizard's licking me (that's how he smells). If you zoom up to the picture you can see the tongue more clearly.






i was brave enough to pick up the millipede:P













I wonder who that person is, labouring so hard to "save mother earth":P











there was a girl with a bunch of birds














that's it for now

My Stamp Collection (and our trip to IMAX)

On March 19th we provisioned tickets to the Imax theatre. We watched a 3D underwater film. It was so cool, it felt like you could just reach out and touch the fish! The scariest part was when it showed the poisonous water snakes. They were swimming up towards you and seemed to just disappear right into your shirt! We provisioned the tickets but the manager asked if we could buy snacks cause that's how he makes his money. So I bought three scoops of ice cream. We wore goggles/glasses type of thing. That's what made it 3D. It was super cool!

And now for the main subject of this post. This is my magnificent stamp collection:P The pictures are kind of junky and the lighting isn't super good but here they are anyways.
This first picture is of my African ones.

The left half is African ones, and the right half is South American, Latin American, and Mexican stamps.

The left half is of South American, Latin American, and Mexican stamps, and the right half is of Asian stamps.


The left half is Asian stamps, and the right half is European stamps.


The left half is European stamps, and the right half is Australian stamps and random stamps from no country.

And all the rest of the stamps are from Canada and the USA

On the Farm

Yesterday (St. Patrick's Day), me, mom, Angel, Lizzy, Aime, Katrina, and Vincent (he didn't really want to go, but he had to go to take care of angel, and he did get away from doing lunch dishes) went to a park that had a bunch of animals. First when we got there we had a lunch of egg sandwiches (the eggs were mashed) and veggies. Then we went around looking at the animals. I've included some photos with this post. Enjoy! (I look pretty bad in some of these pictures.)

Here are some animal pictures (there were also chickens, turkeys, and goats, but no one took pictures of them.) :




There was this house thingie with a bunch of arts and crafts, and all us girls did the weaving thing.
