We left the Farm at 5am in the morning with the boat hitched up to the Truck and both full. It took us 12 hours to get to our new home.
That night we slept on air mattresses and started on getting everything set up and cleaned.
Trip to IKEA:
Ray wrote a story for an assignment to write a personal narrative, this is what he came up with: Goosebumps by Ray Myler
The first time I watched Goosebumps, I was scared, and
creeped out. The story was creepy. Jack a blonde kid went to camp on a bus. He
met Katie, Josh, Sam, and Frank. They got off the bus and a big hairy werewolf
called Saber tried to eat them! They met their camp director when he shot a
pistol and scared Saber away. Then they went to their bunks and Katie got bit
by a snake! Her friends threw the sheet that the snake was on out the window,
just as their tall bunk director got there. That night, Katie stood away from
the fire when everyone started to sing. Jack snuck out and went to her. Katie’s
bite was all swollen. The camp director heard them talking during the song, so
he came over to see what was wrong. Jack told the director Katie got bit by a
snake. The next day, while playing baseball, Frank go hit in the back of the
head and was knocked out. Later, they went to a place called the Forbidden
Bunk. Sam told Jack about Josh getting torn apart by Saber. Sam manages to escape
but Josh did not. It wasn’t until the end that I found out Jack’s parents where
scientists going to Earth and wanted to test Jack before bringing him. He was
brave, kind, and passed the test with flying colors! Everyone was just acting
and Saber was just a robot controlled by a guy. At the end I said “creepy” and
me and my Dad watched more Goosebumps.

My favorite part of our home so far is the wall of windows! Our lot has so many beautiful trees that are changing color and it is so comfy in the new leather family room recliners!
This is our wonderful library, the county have over a dozen locations and it is set up like the St. Louis county. Our card works at all of them and if a location has a book we want, we request and they get it to us!
BJ made sure to enjoy his last German breakfast:
