we went to the capital



It was the first family trip we had taken since we went to Bangor in Maine. We woke up about 8 and got ready and when daddy said "do you want to go bye-bye" to Loki he started running back and forth from the nearest person to the door. it's really cute,he does it every time you say it too. but any way we got in the car and went to pick Fayth up at Carrie's house, it was Michele's birthday the day before and Fayth had stayed over night. so after we picked her up we sat in the car for 2 hours, which really isn't that much after the three days moving back from Maine. We got there and parked in a parking building, i forget what its called. we left Loki in the car and walked to the Chazen museum of art. It was SOOO cool my favorite painting was the lady in the red dress(I like the dress) .Fayth's was the Jack in the lobby area ,it was huge . Fin's was the holographic clown that followed you wene you walked back and forth. Moms was the Ming dynasty jade sculpture in the basement that used to be part of an ancient building. dads was the Italian cassone (the big trunk)it had a bunch of cool  carvings in the wood. after the art museum we were supposed to go to the Wisconsin museum of history. but we didn't because mommy was so wiped out.im glad because we wouldn't have been able to walk after the rest of the day.we went to Tj max instead. mom got espresso beans covered in chocolate. while me and mom and Fayth were there dad and fin were at a wood shop buy tools place,which was the reason we went(so dad could go to the buy tools place). dad got tools. then we went to moms favorite clothes store ever Burlington coat factory we all got some col clothes me, mom, Fayth. and fin got formal dresses for family pics, mine is a purple frilly one, moms is a short white one fins is pink with flowers on it and fayths is a red and black dress that looks really good on her. dad got a shirt and Fayth also got a pair of shoes, and i got a purse. about that time it was 8:30 so we started home. at the Wisconsin dells we stopped at Denny's for supper. we got home about 10:30. I had a lot of fun.

new member of our familly






last night dad called and told me and my sisters to go into the living room and shut the TV off i wasn't sure why but we did. then they come in dad first and mom follows holding our new PUPPY his name is Loki he's a mutt my mothers friends found he was lost they tried everything to find the owners, but they couldn't. they knew my mom had wanted a small dog for a long time and they didn't have room to keep him.
he is so cute! me and my mom had to give him a bath and he stood so still. Not shying away like ivy did. (though he is certainly not replacing her) After the bath he started running around and rubbing his face on the ground then he dropped on the ground and pulled himself along with his front paws. He was rollling on his back and zooming around it was amazing.
But most of all he is certainly moms dog he cuddles with her more than any of us. he layed at her feet earlier and is by her side a lot. Need less to say were all very excited about Loki.
