Body Worlds 3: The Anatomical Exhibition of Real Human Bodies at OMSI

Grandma and Grandpa visited the museum in Portland to see the display of human bodies. This was part of Grandma's massage homework. It was a remarkable display, and I felt awe, revulsion, fear, pride, reverence altogether!

Energy drinks

In July, Ivy, Austin, Kristof, Grandma and Grandpa went camping at Bullards Beach. We drove to Monroe, and then took the Territorial Highway to Drain. Stopping for soda on a back country road is inevitable.
Austin had money for soda: he had birthday bucks. He asked permission to buy Red Bull . "Energy drinks for a 13 year old?" I wondered. Still, it was vacation time, so traveler got what he wanted. "$1.99 a can!" I wondered. Kristof and Austin sat in the back of the Honda Civic, drank and sang.
I remembered there were cheaper energy drinks at the Grocery Outlet
And I found some!

Pit Bull versus Red Bull

Kristof and Austin will drink Pit Bull grudgingly. They favor Red Bull.

my dog ali'i

This story is about my labrador retriever,he is pure black/chocolate lab.when we first got him it was at a wal-mart in the front parking lot where people were giving puppies out for free.It took me and my dad 1hour to convince my mom to let us have a dog.he weighed 20-30lbs.When we took him home he was really scared and i think he was sad cuase he left his other brothers and sisters.But when we got home i took him into the bathtub and washed him with my dads help,after the shower i took him in the backyard to let him get the idea that he is at home.Then i took him inside and showed him the whole house.later that day we took him to the petstore to buy some toys and food for him.He loved seeing all the other dogs.Now after 3years he is at 120lbs and still growning.Over the 3years hes been with us hes been bugging us about getting another playmate for him.so in probaly less than a year we will get another puppy.well this was what my dog is like.

greetings

Dear mom and dad,

Grandpa says I should write a letter this way.I am now getting used to using this blog.is very fun. love austin ps:how is the dog?????
