The Snow children had a festival last Friday night. It was changed from Thursday night to Friday so grandma and grandpa could attend. A famous artist was there selling painting. I bought 2. They were only 25 cents each.
Poppy was selling cups of water with no ice and yogurt, that I had bought that afternoon, for 25 cent each. I had one of both. It is lucky the board of health wasn't there she would have been shut down.
Poppy also sold sea shells from the Sea of Cortez, I wonder who found them. I got 4 they will be added to my collection and they were only 25 cents each.
Phoenix took me for a tour of the taylor gardens and sold me a rose and other flowers. 25 cents for the tour and 25 cents for a flower.

I was entertained with songs. The ABC song, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Puff the Magic Dragon. And a parade of bikers. I only had to pay 30 cents for each of theses.

Do you think I was taken advanage of?? I don't have any more change in my wallet. They were excited to count their money and they had no overhead. It was worth it in the long run.

VOTE

Vote yes on 8, I am
I have nothing against gay marriages, but I am worried that their beliefs will be forced on me and other christian people.
In this great Country of ours, we were all given religious freedom by our founding fathers. Please don't let any one take it from us.

BIRTHDAY CAKE

Melissa had a birthday, last Saturday. If you want to know how old she is, just count the candles. That should be easy they are all in rows. Since Poppy had the chicken poxes. She and Lily was home with me while all the rest of the Snows went to the company party with their dad. We decided to make mom a birthday cake (brownie) and buy mint and chip ice cream her favorite. Then we could have a birthday party, when she got home.
Poppy made the cake(brownie) all by herself, except putting it into the oven and taking it out. I did try to pick out all the egg shells. She decorated it just like she wanted to, too. There is yellow sprinkles , both voliet and white sugar on the chocalate frosting. Some white stuff in a tube she made a design instead of writing happy birthday. It was much prettier than this picture.
But the best part is after we had it mixed and put it in the pans. I told her she could lick the bowl. Then I looked at her and she had her head in the bowl licking it. Grandma, you said that licking the bowl is the most important part. So I just let her lick it and washed her face after she was finished. What could Grandma say after that. Too bad I didn't get a picture of licking the bowl, too.
Then we made decoration, too. Melissa was suprised and the brownie were real good too.
