A Few More ND Photos


When the sun starts to set in New Salem, the bales of hay emit a pretty golden glow.

Here's Aunt Penny's calf. He's a baby like me. AND, he likes to snack on apples--just like me! We have a lot in common.

Visiting the family and seeing all of the sights in North Dakota sure takes it out of a little kid! But it was a lot of fun, and I can't wait to visit again!

Grandma & Grandpa


Look! It's me and my Grandma Linda. She and my Grandpa Randy Pandy have a really nice backyard. There's lots of space to run around and all kinds of cool birdhouses and stuff that my Grandma made all by herself. Here I am hiding in a bush. Grandma Linda found me and gave me some pretty flowers from her garden.

Here I am with Grandpa Pandy having a very interesting conversation. I can't remember what it was about, but I'm sure we were talking about cookies or something.

These are some cherry and pear tomatoes from their garden. They look delicious.

And they ARE! I must have eaten at least 10 cherry and pear tomatoes. They were still warm from the sun. Yummy.

Yup. I think I'll come back for another visit soon.

Great Grandma Louise


I finally got to meet my Great-Grandma Louise. She's 92 years older than me! There's Uncle Loren grinning in the background.

She's awesome because she let me play in her cupboards. I found a little pot that was my size, which made it easy to run around with and bang on stuff.

Here we are hanging out. Aren't we cute?

New Salem or Bust


I took my very first airplane ride to North Dakota to visit my Grandma Linda, Grandpa Randy Pandy, and Aunt Penny. I also got to meet my Great-Grandma Louise! They live in a little town called New Salem. Here I am on the airplane. I almost slept through the entire plane ride. Luckily, I woke up just in time for the landing.

New Salem is home to the largest holstein cow in the world. Her name is Salem Sue. She sits on a hilltop overlooking the town.

Look how big she is! My mom can barely reach the udders.

Just in case you wanted to know more about the giant cow.

Here is a view of New Salem from Salem Sue's hilltop.

Hi!

So, I know it's been a while since I posted to the blog. But I've gotta tell ya--I've been BUSY!! I celebrated my very first birthday AND I rode on an airplane all the way to North Dakota. What an adventure! Stay tuned...I have TONS of photos to upload.
