Yesterday it was really windy. The palm trees looked like they were going to fall over. The basketball net in the tennis court and the one across the street blew over. The boat rocked a lot. There was a lot of creaking because the boat was banging against the dock. Daddy adjusted the lines so we wouldn't slam into the dock anymore.
Today we saw a crab. Jacquie took a video of it. The crab climbed under the dock. Daddy got a wire and pulled it out so we could see it.
Today we're going to decorate for Christmas. We have already put up a two foot tall Christmas tree that is made of cardboard. We had to build it from a kit. We keep it on the kitchen table. When we do the rest of the decorating we will get to eat snacks and listen to Christmas music. It will be fun.

Hi. We're in the Bahamas. We sailed from Bimini Bahamas a couple nights ago. It was really rocky. My sister threw up twice. Yesterday we went on a dinghy ride. A dinghy is a small boat to go to shore when anchored out. I got to drive. It was fun. We saw a sunken ship. It was cool. We also swam in the pool. When we were in Bimini we swam in the ocean. It was easy to see the bottom.

I found a lizard a while ago. I named him Stripes. My Dad built him a cage. It has a flat bottom with a screen over top. Later I found a lizard in our garage and put him in with Stripes. He doesn't have a name yet. We buy crickets at the pet store for my lizards to eat.
I've been making some friends at church. Their names are Ethan, Thomas, and Jonathan.
Guess what?! My Dad used to have a pony tail and he got it cut off. Jacquie and I weren't there when he got it cut off. When Daddy got home he had his pony tail tucked in his hat hanging down. When he took his hat off we still didn't notice. Then we finally noticed. It was really funny!
