OUR WALK DOWN TOWN

My mom let me use her camera on our walk. That's Aidan trying to get away from me. I know what your thinking he looks so happy but he turned around and saw me and ran.               
Aidan looking at a man drinking his beer at 11:00. He told us to get away. I thought in my mind grumpy man.

The Horse Farm part 2

Well it was fun, I got to pet horses, I got to spin on the exerciser, and the next time I go I get to muck out a stall and brush the horses, and I got a horse shoe. McFadden farms has a huge barn, and we looked for kittens but all we found was a groomsman. 

  His name was Tim and he introduced us to all the horses. They have two mustangs, four retired racing horses (one is named RobNPlunder) and a colt. I named the colt Sasha. Tim said I could name all the horses except Rob. 

  My dad took pictures of us on top of some huge hay bales, and we got to feed the horses some of the hay. Then Tim took us into the horse racing museum. They call it a clubhouse. Inside was a scary cougar. They had some saddles and a horse buggy. The horses were very friendly and loved nose rubs and ate right from my hand.

  If you visit me I will take you to McFadden Farm.

Watch us swing!

This is a picture of me and my good friend, Diamond.

Here are some of the pictures my daddy took. We were there for almost two hours!

Girls Rule

Girls Rule, Don't you think? I think so too. I think girls rule because girls love horses. In the summer I will get back to riding horses with other girls also. My dad is taking me to see horses today at three. We won't get to ride one, but the farm is over 70 acres. I don't know about the barn but my dad says it's 4 times bigger than my great grandma Mohler's barn.
I am going to look for kittens while I'm there. I'll take some pictures for you while I'm there and you can see the farm for yourself. I love Oregon because we have so many horses and barns and stuff.
Love,
Jordyn

Awana Handbook Camp

Handbook is right. I got a ton of awards. And  finished my book. I also finished my book. I'm on book two already. I got to have a sleep over at the church.                                                                                 LOVE,                                                                                                                                                              JORDYN

Watch Me Fly

The other day we went to the park. The Adair Village park where they have a big slide. I jumped off the slide and it looked like I was flying through the air with the birds. My daddy took a bunch of pictures and then I took pictures of him. Then we photoshopped them together so you could see my jump all at once. 

  If there had been a horse there I would have landed on him and ridden off into the sunset. Oh well, maybe next time.

A Fun Science Experiment

The Water Cycle

Today in science class we did an experiment to show how precipitation is formed.

 We actually made it rain in our house!

First we boiled water in a tea kettle to create a cloud of warm air. Next we held a pan full of ice, that represented cold air, over the steam. When the warm air and the cold air joined condensation formed and it started to rain. 

It was interesting to learn that water starts in the Ocean and ends in the Ocean. Here is a verse that I learned with my lesson "All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full". Ecclesiastes 1:7
