the winner is . . .

Uncle Rascal won the contest on the weeping Uncles Blog. I don't know how he did it because Uncle Cares-a-Lot was winning and somehow his votes were removed. So were the votes for none of the above. Uncle Rascal is pretty good at computers - and he has a lot of friends . . .well at least six . . . counting himself.

camping trip

This weekend I went camping with my family. It was really fun because I got to be with all of my relatives - but the BEST part is that I got to see tons of animals - ginourmous grasshoppers, tons of snails, a slug, and a green sheild bug. I wanted to bring the sheild bug home but it died before I could bring it home. But the strangest creatures I saw on the whole trip were soooo freaky - they let off a gassy odor, and didn't look like anything I'd ever seen before . . . they were MY UNCLES . . . . ha ha ha ha ha. I'm laughing, but I'm not kidding about the odor part. (You should vote for one of them on the Weeping Uncles blog.)

Here are some pictures from our trip. One picture is of my Weeping Uncles, and the other picture is of me and my sister.

so long little toad!

A couple days ago I let Pickles go. I will always miss him. I know he is happy & healthy in his pond that we cleaned up.

This is a picture I drew of Pickles my toad. I thought you would like to see it.

at the Jesse James Party

Here I am at the party for DJJD. I got to sit on one of the raiders horses and I didn't even sneeze because I wasn't too close to the hay. It was such a fun party.

Pickles lunch

I think that we'll get to keep Pickles a little longer than I thought. He can eat, so we'll get to keep him longer than Trever. It's cool because when you feed him live crickets, you can turn on just one light and watch his tongue ZAP and catch the bug. It's neat when you have a wild toad as a pet because can watch how they would live in the wild and use their instincts to survive.

my new pet

One time last night I found a toad on a road. He was kinda puny. I was dropping my friend off from the movies, and friend gave me a jar and I put him in there Then when we were driving home I found a bigger one on the road, so my mom stopped the car - she said it was OK, so I got out of the car and I picked him up and put him in the jar.

A while after that we named him Pickles, because me and my friend Meg once found a toad and we named him Pickles, but we lost him, so I decided to name this one Pickles too. I let the little one go so he wouldn't get eaten.

You should come see him. He is bigger than Trevor.
