Hi, I'm Bella!

I wanted to tell you about my trip to my new home with my mom.

I was in a shelter that was fool of poo everywhere we walked, our water was full of maggets, and some of my brothers and sisters were lying next to me dead. I was scared out of my mind to what would happen to me next. But to my surprise the horrible placed got busted and we got on this loud machine and drove for hours and hours. Once we got to this big building they put us in some water and scrubbed us clean! It felt so good! They then took my to my own little room and feed me the most delicious food I have ever eaten. Well it's one of the few amounts of food I have eaten since I can remember. The next day my brother and sisters were taken to a BIG gated off area in the middle of the building. So many of the strange creatures that walked on two legs would stop and stare. When my brother was gone and some of my sisters were taken by these things I began to get scared. I didn't want to go back to the mean things. But then this girl walked up to me that just started wining. I knew right then that I loved her. She picked me up in her arms and cuddled me to her face. She said, "I love you!" And I loved her too. She told the other creatures I was hers and I was sooooo excited. We got in her big machine and made it to the place that is now my home. I love my mom so much, but sometimes I like to fight with her to keep things interesting. But I still am so grateful for her saving my life.


So haha to the other dogs that didn't get her!

Hidden Heroes

I think that our world today is focused on nothing but the bad that we have going on. Instead of looking for the good things people have done we go and look at the drama that we have going on in Hollywood. It makes me sick that our country is so focused on image and the personal lives of the rich and famous. Why can't we take more time to focus on the people that made our world better. I think that it is so unfair that people that give there lives to save others and really help this world don't ask for any recognition and of course never get none, but the people that are causing the drama in the world get all the recognition they want because of their money.

*Brother Andrew was a great person to spread the word of God to countries that were cut off to the rest of the world. He truly is an angel and helper of God and really shows me that anyone can take a risk and spread the word of God in any situation given.

Senior Poem

Senior year is about finding who you are and having fun.
It's about looking into the past when we wore diapers and ate dirt.
When we had big bottle glasses and snaggled teeth.
A time where we can look back and laugh because we really thought we were grown at three.
It's a time of becoming closer to the people you've grown up with and making new memories to laugh at.
A time where you sit around with your parents and look at old baby pictures and laugh at how dumb you looked.
It's a time when you sit in your Daddy's lap and listen to y'alls song and cry.
A time where you and your Mommy go ride around and eat out just to have time before leaving.
Senior year is a time of realizing it's time to grow up.
A time where you start getting butterflies because eventually you have to do your own laundry and cook for yourself.
It's a time when all the family gathers for that big day.
Senior year is a time to say goodbye to old times and say hello to the new person we'll become.

Comic box

You can't take my house!

I think that the people that handled this situation were way out of line. They could of made a phone call or sent mail saying that the woman didn't pay her bill. If it were to happen to me I probably would have fought the guys that were destroying my house. I think that this situation could happen to anybody!

Road Trip

If I were to take a road trip I would start off by going down to South Padre to visit Esteban with Aaron. We would go to the beach.









Then Aaron, Esteban, and I would make our way down to Cabo, Mexico!




















We're all a little tired of the beach scene so we decide to go up to Chapleau, Canada to go fly fishing and stay in a nice and peaceful log cabin. We're even going to take a train ride into the Rocky Mountains.















Now from Canada we will end up in Laguna Beach, California and go hot tubbing with The Hills cast.


Now we're going to head back to the good old state of Texas because Esteban is going to stay with us in Amarillo for a week then we will go to Childress and his parents will take him back from there.
