Wednesday And Thursday

2008-03-28T19:14:00.000-07:00

This is a fun pic of me next to my sister! We went to Virginia City on Wednesday and ate at a Chinese restaurant.
After we ate we went to my favorite horse shop, a non-profit organization to protect wild horses in Northern Nevada. This is a picture of Micaela and I in front of it.I bought this great bag at the horse shop. When you buy something there you're helping wild horses. I loved this bag because it says my grandma's town that she lives in, Dayton, Nevada!

This is me sitting on an old horse. You can see me wearing my sweats because it was super chilly! After this we headed to a casino called Bonanza. I got two stuffed animals from the animal crane. They were two horses. I named them Mandy and Candy.
This is a funny pic of us in a camel race stand. It was funny when we looked at our picture.
This is the last place we went. We went to the post office then here. This is a Visitor Center. I am standing next to this beautiful old Victorian dress. Below is a picture of my sister and I outside the Visitor Center:
Yesterday, we had a long trip home. I was really sad having to leave my grandma's house. I missed my grandpa Tony too. I was crying at first but I thought of seeing my two cats, Jack and Stella. It was great to be home!!!

This is Suzy and Emily sitting together at the table. They were having lots of fun!!

Yesterday we went to many places. We went to the Dollar Tree and Borders. Those were my favorite shops. Also we went to Lowes. My sister and I got to sit on the swings and go back and forth. My grandma bought me a new cool jumprope. It is green and blue. After shopping we went outside and I played with my jumprope. My sister rode my grandpa's bike. It was a very fun day. Today we might go to Virginia City. I will be able to see my favorite horse shop ever!

Yesterday, we went on a very long car trip. It was 9 and a half hours long. We drove 467 miles to Dayton, Nevada to visit my grandma and grandpa and their dog, Freddie. After the trip my family was really tired. We had a Easter dinner of ham, potatoe salad, and asparagus. We got Easter baskets with yummy chocolate and candy. Today we are going to Virginia City.
